Religion is an Agreement between a group of people about what God is. SPIRITUALITY is a one on one Relationship. Religion = Without SPIRITUALITY = Within Know Thyself 💐
I never took to organized religion that I was forced to partake as a child. I had to many questions and nobody could give me a clear cut answer. As I got older I leaned towards spirituality. I absolutely love the way you explain everything in depth. Asé Asé Asé
Well put!! Very informative and simply explained. I always believed "religion" is a DIRECT extension of Spirituality, that is why it can be difficult to separate the two and both are sometimes used interchangeably. Information is Key!!! Thank you sister!!! Ase!! Ase!!! Ase!!!
I’m fortunate to have found your videos. You explain in such details and your videos are confirmation. I was raised in organized religion until I was 18. After years of struggling and feeling I had to prove to be accepted in churches, I finally come to a place in my life to say enough fighting to fit where I don’t belong. The entertainment in the pulpits are outrageous. I come to understand that I am spiritual and value a sense of peace to have freedom to express and connect with the universe.
Thank you for that definition. I have always been spiritual even as a very little girl. Your videos are helping me very much to find that place so it can flow freely and I understand why I practice things naturally because it is who I am. I'm researching now to find what religion or practice feeds my spirituality. Thank you.
I was just about to ask you is tarot a part of spirituality and you started talking about it lol. I don’t know why ever since I was younger I was always drawn to magic, psychics, tarot card..etc and I use to feel bad about it because I was told it was bad. 💛✨
Personal opinion, is we were taught along with every other ethnic group that our cultural practices were wrong and demonic. We were heathens and needed to follow the acceptable religion / practices of non-ethnic people. That hold was so strong that it carried on through every generation (most likely for protected from harm or death) and now ware able to explore other beliefs and practice without fear.
Am a spiritual person love spiritual people's like leaning on my own when i comes to the bible so much to read I excited so minutes talk from people I get confused I just love my god❤🙏
Peace and Blessing Elemi ❤That was very informative and I'm beginning to understand much clearer. Thank you for all the information and teaching. ❤ASÉ ASÉ ASÉ
I deeply dislike when people want to wear beads setup an altar for an orisha so they can feel nouveau but don't want to commit to the actual practice. People can do what they want but they should have their egos adjusted accordingly.
Elemi, i just love you girl. I love the spirit that you have, and taking the time to give us all this beautiful knowledge. I always look forward to your next video and your enlightenment. May you always be blessed with your loved ones. ASE, ASE, ASE.
You are so wise,i had a profound moment with how clearly you spoke of the subject defining religion and spirituality one other aha moment was done by a Pastor at a Christian church,church people are always just beat down by "demons' anything wrong..oh it surely is a demon ,so the pastor looked at the church and said,sometimes its not demons,,its you!You.have that same knowledge filled directness!Bless you!Just found you,i love your style,i can see many good ones!
Alafia! This gives an enormous amount of clarification. In my spiritual journey I have had Connection for years to many Orisha. Offered to them in their element. Sometimes, like a Catholic, offering to images. Was a Buddhist monk, a Jew who grew up Buddhist. Orisha had been in the background until right before Covid, it was perfect timing because made me put everything on hold to focus on ancestors. . I was very drawn to Osha. I just recently received Elekes. There is definitely a plug in! When you enter the community there is a huge difference! Ashe!
Thank you sm for this video.. it was very important for me to understand this and you explained it beautifully 💜 and yes to the video about the pendulum!
This really helped me to understand that my ancestors altar is under the umbrella of many traditions. Although it is spiritual to me, in many ways and culturally it does come from the root of religious teachings and traditions.
Thank you!! Ive evolved to spiritual and was raised catholic. I also am very interested in the Orisha and have started to read more. Can you teach more on working with the deities and how that my be not ideal if you don’t practice religion ?
U the realest Mama!! Gave me sum good game on this one that I been contemplating deeply. Feel like try to hard to be spiritual n really n truly in my heart be tweaking for structure discipline n community of religion. I really appreciate ur videos mama 💯 💪
I love your videos! So informative, thank you so much for doing this. It’s a great help to the people and we definitely appreciate it! A’se to you love.. and yes please do a video on Pendulums.
Thank you so much for your video, they are very helpful and informational I watch at least 3 to 4 of them each day thank you thank you this is really helping me a lot. ❤
I also would love to see a video on pendulums. Had a pink crystal on a chain that began to move on its own without a breeze. Established directions for yes or no answers and asked several baseline question. When it didn't use a yes/no question it would stop all movement. Just completely still. Can't find the crystal now but did get a video of the event. Although, different objects have begun to swing a lot more or I'm just noticing them now.
I was watching one of your other videos and somehow I touch the screen and I jump to this one but I’m grateful that it was still one of your videos it’s funny out of all the ones that were there it was one of yours blessings to you
Wow I can’t Believe I missed this one soooo important! I’m far more advanced than last year🤣🌻⚔️I love these videos! Just when i got it together FELT AMAZING 1st time ever like I’m on my path set up my alters TO HONOR my Orishas ( SEPERATE) from ancestors! I vow to do my best bc I learned they have to eat from dumpster I DONT WANT NO FRIEND EATING FROM TRASH NOT TO MENTION MY BLOOD! And then A NIGERIAN BORN MAN MARRIED TO MY BEST FRIEND told me I should remove my cowries from my dreads bc I look like a goddess! HE KNOWS THE CULTURE AND I CAN SEE FROM HIS EYES MARKINGS IN HIS FACE HE IS JUST LIKE ME! The one thang I agreed on is he told me I’m a prophetess I already knew that but he hurt my feelings badly! He said the people in Africa are wizards warlocks and winches I WAS FLOORED TO HEAR HIM SAY SUCH my spirit was broken..,, AND THEN I COME ACROSS ONE OF ( my big sisters I claim her as this🙌🏾🌻⚔️) VIDEOS and peace again❤️I love this sister! I believe
Thank you for this video.! Do you have any suggestions for someone who may have dreamed about Oshun or Yemaya or an Ancient Egyptian deity but who's not in a religion? Is it possible to build that relationship without going into another religion? Thanks.
Crystals are spoken of in the bible. Instructions were given for crystals to be on the High Priest's breast plate. Incense is used in the catholic religious ceremonies. It is the same thing that indigenous Indians burning tobacco and the smoke raising up to the heavens to carry up the prayers of the faithful. When you fully understand it you realise 'everything is everything is the same thing."
How can one start learning about their our spiritual Journey and practice? I have enjoy watching your video and have learn so much so far. But I would love to learn more for myself.
Hi, Mark. You can do some independent research on subjects and communities that speak to your spiritual/religious beliefs. See what interests you and start from there.
I disagree... One may have an Orisha or Lwa that is their head... for instance, Ogu may be a person's head but their path may not be a religious one. Once that Orisha reveals itself to the person, it may come with instructions as to how/what a person is to do and or not do. (This is only done by a certified elder) By no means is that person allowed to participate in or do any of the religious ceremonies that are required for people of the religion. But a person should service the spirit that walks with them... To me, it would be wise to do so... especially after it has revealed itself to the person... Boko's, Rootmen, Witch Doctors, Obeah Men, (to name a few) mostly aren't apart of religions... Of course most work with the dead but yet also they service certain Congo deities. The only reason I said any of this is because I noticed when U talked about religion and religion with spirituality, there was an cheery overtone... When U talked about independent spiritualists, U kind of made it seem like it was something wrong with it... It takes thousands of dollars for a person to wait on a man to elevate him when the spirit can show U things a man can't and most times "Won't". Jesus asked a disciple, "so do U say that I am"? The disciple replied what others say.. Jesus asked him, "who do YOU say that I am? The disciple replied, "I believe U are the son of God".. Jesus' reply was "flesh and blood hath not revealed this to you, but my father in heaven". Sometimes, religion holds certain people back from reaching their true spiritual potential... Especially if the religious leaders aren't pure in heart. I just wanted to add the parts that I feel are left out
There is plenty of mention as to why someone would seek a spiritual path outside of organized religion and those reasons are listed and are valid reasons. Witch doctors, root workers, astrologers, etc., all have value their communities and work to help people and we recognize and encourage it! One isn’t better than the other. Perhaps watching the video over will give you better clarity.

It's Too Consecrated into "Beliefs" to Be Truthful and Reasonable Even If, They're Antiquated and Outdated. We're Ever Evolving Beings. It's Also Too Much About Favoritism as Well.

Thank you for this video.!
Do you have any suggestions for someone who may have dreamed about Oshun or Yemaya or an Ancient Egyptian deity but who's not in a religion? Is it possible to build that relationship without going into another religion? Thanks.
I have the same question. If you find out any information please let me know.
Greetings.... I really like your vids... I would also like to see a video on pendulums...
You could do religious and spiritual ..
Also in church they do light candle and incense… in Bible many miracles were done ☑️
Can you practice hoodoo and worship Orisha ?
Spirituality can lead to appropriation if one isn't careful.
