10-Year Anniversary - OBARIMA Afurakani (African) Manhood Book and Training 17,000 Free Downloads of our OBARIMA Book in 12 months This fefewbere (spring) marks the 10-year anniversary of the publishing of our book OBARIMA - Afurakani (African) Manhood Every Afurakani (African~Black) male does not have a father in his life. Many of those without a father also do not have a positive male relative or non-relative to assist them in directing their adwene (mind) and tumi (spiritual power) in a positive, productive direction. They have never been acculturated to continuously re-spect/re-view every thought, intention and action and realign each with Divine Order, every moment of everyday. At the same time they are bombarded every moment of everyday with the perversity and degeneracy of white culture and white cultural values. We thus fall into self-destructive behavior. Our book OBARIMA - Afurakani Manhood is a manual for young as well as older Afurakani males. It is divided into seven sections examining the seven principal values of manhood rooted in the Abosom (Deities) that animate the solar, lunar and planetary bodies which govern the seven-day week. Each day of the week is governed by the energy of a specific Obosom (Deity). We thus have an opportunity - daily - to take advantage of the unique infusion of energy, align with the principal value of manhood governing the day and that aspect of our spiritual anatomy which is related. The result of this perpetual daily realignment in thoughts, intentions and actions leads to transformative behaviors - reformative behaviors. We cease self-destructive activity and embrace productive activity and productive interactions personally and communally. This transformation and reformation benefits the Afurakani male and every Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) person, adult, child and community member with whom he comes into contact. In the past 12 months we have had over 17,000 downloads of the free e-book version of our book OBARIMA - Afurakani Manhood. We have made this book, like all of our 30 books, available as a free download for those who are not able to afford the $9 soft-cover purchase price. We have heard from Afurakani males, youth and adults, as well as their mothers, wives and mates regarding the transformative and reformative effect of OBARIMA upon their lives. Many have ceased smoking, drinking, promiscuity, violent behavior in the community, idleness, laziness, unproductive behavior, self-destructive behavior, negative relationships with family, women and more. This manual which is consulted daily and incorporated into their daily lives has transformed and reformed them right where they are right now. Those who do not have a positive Afurakani Obarima (man) in their lives do not have to wait for someone to come and do a presentation, start a mentoring program, build a school, etc. We have proven over the last 10 years since the release of OBARIMA that we can transform the Afurakani obarima right where he is right now - including those who have been incarcerated and have been given OBARIMA to study. This year's 17,000+ downloads is the latest manifestation of this reality. Our fundraising initiative for OBARIMA started over two years ago is for the expansion of our program wherein we give away free soft-cover versions of our book OBARIMA at our free trainings, workshops for Afurakani males as well as free book give-aways to Afurakani males wherever we can. We have given away over 1,500 copies of our soft-cover books for free to the community over the past couple of years inclusive of OBARIMA. We also have our NOKWAREFO - Distributor option where those who need to work can become self-employed immediately by distributing our 30 books. Some cannot afford the initial purchase of the first set of books at the wholesale price and we thus aim to be able to send the first set of books to them on consignment until they sell the first set. Support our initiative today and assist in the transformation and reformation of Afurakani males - right where they are right now. The transformative and reformative nature of the work is immediate and lasting. Any contribution you make gives you the option to receive one or more of our 30 books in return for your donation. We have real solutions which are immediate and effective and proven. We do not engage in infantile debates. We do transformative-reformative work daily. We have reached over 17,000 this past year. We have the capacity to reach literally hundreds of thousands - and ultimately millions as our website in general has received over 3 million hits over the past 12 months. Every one of our Afurakani mmarima (men) should have a physical copy of OBARIMA in their possession.
