The Cure From Within.

Knowledge is not powerful until the knowledge is passed down to the younger generation and used when it is expected. The usage of herbs and every other ancient thing like ash has been in place for so long. Before the modern world, our ancestors lived a life filled with taking herbs and getting to know which would work for this or that illness. They were great doctors who discovered the usage of different herbs by studying leaves and roots closely like their life depended on it.

They passed down their knowledge to their children, who in turn passed it down, and with that, a connection was made. It was a circle of knowledge.

However, it is heartbreaking knowing how the younger generation sees this as being fetish because it requires bringing different leaves together to cure a disease, and it works. Being an African, taking herbs is one thing I took while growing up. I remembered the times I would get sick so badly that mom became a herb cook at home. Hehe.

She has a special pot and kettle for cooking herbs, and when using these pots, she places them on 3 stones with places between them where firewood can go into. Whoever has made use of firewood knows very well that the pot being used doesn't end up being the same.

The usage of firewood darkens the pot and makes it look ugly so that some may see cooking anything with it as bringing in more disease to the body. They see the pot has a tool that has been diagnosed with some illness that has no cure. But, is that true? Well, you'll be surprised for those who don't know that the ashes gotten from the firewood that caused the pot to darken perform tons of miracles. This isn't what I was told but what I was fortunate to partake in.

With my bare hand and the usage of ash, I washed the back of a dark pot until it became shiny like the silver pot it is made of.

Just like the usage of herbs as well. There are some leaves that cause your skin to itch when your skin comes in contact with them, and that same leaf has the cure to stop that same itching of the skin by boiling it and drinking the water.

Also, I have heard of a way to cure scorpion bites. Some believe, cooking the scorpion and eating it neutralizes the poison, and though I haven't seen someone bitten by a scorpion before and be treated with it, though I have been fortunate to meet someone who was bitten by a snake and was cured by the same snake.

I have been very unfortunate but, in this case, fortunate to witness the presence of an ant bite. I don't know if you are familiar with those black ants whose bite can make you almost go crazy. I have been bitten by them multiple times to say that killing the ant and using it to touch the place you were bitten works because I have tried it whenever I am stung by it.

Therefore, if you are type that does not believe in the cure being in the disease itself, you can watch James Van Der Beek video or read more on @samsmith1971 post here
