FUNNY CULTURAL BELIEFS: THE SALT THERAPY, WITH AN AFRICAN FOLK TALE SONG YOU LL LOVE.

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


It is a beautiful thing to often consider our cultural heritage this week and how it can be either adopted of discontinued with reasons.

Tradition and culture of a people is their way of life which can be dated back to time, it was how they survived, things to learnt to do that worked for their fathers and probably yielded results as time went by.

It is not always wrong, because if we discontinue all our cultures because of civilization, we will loose our origin in the name of civilization. Rather would be better if our focus can be aligned to using civilization to better our own traditional and archive them for generations to come before pushing it off the air.

A lot of the new generation do not even know the tenets of their culture and tradition and this is absurd to the African in us. Let's keep the good culture and abolish the evil but still let it be remember so we don't rattle back into it.

Today I made a video joking about a health trick our Mothers thought us back then, THE ALMIGHTY SALT THERAPY.

The salt is know to have a very strong curative "tendencies" in my Land, the igbos have used it to treat wounds, stomach pain and even as an antibiotics. The most shocking one is if pepper enters your eyes, our mothers will ask us to put a pinch of salt in our mouth and like magic, the pain in the eye disappears. How is that even possible.

I have often theorized this to be an override effect of the facial nerve, glossopharyngeal nerve and the opthalmic nerves, these are big names but they are all jus three of the 12 cranial nerves which only supplies the face, tongue, and part of the eye, this override on the operates when we take the salt, it deactivates one other and the pain is gone. I would love further studies about it.

Do you also have something similar about the salt, please share, I would love to know if I m not alone, and you probably join me in my research hehehe.

At the end of the video is a folk song which had been on my mind for a long time. It's about trading the wrong things for the wrong reasons, a story of a woman called Olurombi, who avowed her child to a an iroko tree if she was given one, out of desperation of getting a child, she eventual got a child called Aponbepore, who was the most beautiful girl in the land, but she forgot to return the child to the tree gods. One day they came to her, took the child from her and sang this song.

Please enjoy it

Yoruba
Onikaluku jeje ewure ewure ewure
Onikaluku jeje aguntan aguntan bolojo
Olurombi jeje Omo, omore aponbiepo
Olurombi o, gboingboin, iroko gboin gboin

Eng

Everyone promised a goat
A goat a goat.
Everyother person, promised a sheep a sheep a sheep
Olurombi promised her child, her child Aponbiepo
Olurombi o, gboingboin iroko gboin gboin

Thanks for reading and thanks for watching.🙏

Notice many "new users" on Hive? Not many, like this place is a disease. No outside communities bringing in new comers. No other sites having many links or no links to any articles from Hive on sites that show professional interests they view as noteworthy to a profession or hobby. Hive articeles are rare on reddit.com. Wouldnt people post on reddit.com with links to their articles attracting their own new following and groups? No crypto forums acknowledge Hive exists as a place to be either. Ever seen a person asking for support show a way to give support with HIVE listed as a supporting wallet address? Is there a world address on Hive for countries made more unfortunate because of Hive? Would a large Hive holder or large earner of Hive donate a LARGE amount of Hive to help support Ukraine? What? Support something thing that could attract unwanted media attention? Nothing to see here......I dont get out much though.

People are hiding exposure to Hive. People either play dumb, could be scared or intimidated, mislead or dont beilieve it. Maybe just not electronically cultured enough to know. Who knows. Its mostly fake with fake attention paid for by people with ill intentions as many do gloating in their own groups special mindset. Such a small town here to support this kind of high pay. Who is buying Hive tokens with no notable new user base coming in? People trying to buy this place as a grooming ground on the sly. Articles that arent in the interests of their own goals and views dont get much attention. I dont see many high paid articles I would put on a real news sites or link to as noteworthy. Be part of one of their groups and they groom you. They buy comment and article writers in ways that keep their lies hidden. Here to take our FREEDOMS completely in treason as the sacks of shit they are.

Most interest groups and businesses have discord rooms on the side because they wont talk here or more able to teach views there to shill out of public view. They can do odd stuff to you in discord rooms they cant do here. I’ve seen people get mugged and shaken down in discords, be careful while visiting new discords, even if they are a business. They shut down the discord room along with all of the evidence of their crimes the group around @fyrstikken and his discord server @steemspeak. They also hide behind skirts there while on the creep like they do in the new ones they are in.

The operators doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved in the same discord groups around @fyrstikken and friends. Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. Shes in some groups with seemingly detached characters that dont even acknowledge the others in the group, looking oddly staged. She starts projects and does nothing with it or the delegations after its used to sway people. Like @steempowertwins does<------fake along with her @teamgood <------fake. No substance in her comments and has a following that adores her for what? Life coach she is not nor is she insightful with any meaningful skills to follow. Ruler of pixie dust maybe? I would like for someone to show me but probably wont out fear maybe? @fyrstikken groups around him down voted me into censored and not viewable on my accounts as soon I told what they were doing.

I cant prove @battleaxe is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing V2K because she cant and could care less. I guarantee she knows this is going around and still wont prove it because she cant. Many of us here can prove what they have been doing to survive the past 5 years. What does she live off of? It definitely isnt in public view here.

I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have been trying to kill me using RNM with applied V2K mental games while revealing as many accessories to the crime as they can. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. Pretty serious accusations to just blow off and leave the crypto community hanging in fear of this danger.

They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome. They should start by looking at the communications between the top witnesses of Hive and the connection to @fyrstikken groups. Google his fucking name and see where his other interests lie around at least once maybe? The connections between @fyrstikken groups and all the exchanges built for Hive? Bet that would reveal some crazy ball less nutty shit. Homeland security should start preparing for their own incarcerations seeing how sloppy this was done. Patriot act my ass. Think we are really fools? Bad position your not getting out of. Dont be last to blow the whistle. Who will protect you?

People in and around @fyrstikkens groups are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 long torturing years and counting. That is a long time to wait for someone to die.

What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and why nothing is being done. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control that have ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers prevented from telling the truth from being treated as criminals? Not to mention civilians we let our leaders treat the same way. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism-terrorism
