The Jengili
The jengili is currently described by ethnologists as an ancestral altar marked by a circle of stones. This is only an honest description of what they can see. Now let’s go to the real face of M’TAM.
As explained in the previous chapter, the borders between the material and the non-material universes, as perceived by a human, present more challenges to human intelligence than any other areas. These borders are as clear and as confused as those existing between the solid world and the fluid world, or the border between the Earth and the waters. One is initially tempted to believe that the two worlds are separated: water lies on the Earth, and the Earth is surrounded by water. For humans to be able to explore the seas, it becomes necessary to identify areas on the Earth that are firm and solid enough for construction, so that their structures won’t sink into the sea, and yet deep enough in the sea to be close to the deeper waters for construction of their harbors and ports.
The jengili is an ancestral altar marked out with a circle of stones, but offerings or sacrifices in it are directed to the mother of the ego or to the mother of the paternal ancestors. What we are today is a result of what we’ve been as a group of intelligences ready to go through cycles of reincarnation, and what we are today is also the result of intelligences that will constitute us after the individual journey through cycles of reincarnation and transformation. Cycles of reincarnation and transformation are under the rulership of the God Khepra. The intelligences that constitute the energetic identity of every individual come from diverse elements of nature and the universe; the easiest intelligences to explore are the ones transmitted through those channels of the elements of nature that are also easiest to follow and manipulate such as blood, water, milk, sperm, saliva, etc.
For example, it is very easy to understand that every individual is born from a mother and a father who are humans. At the second level, it is easier to recognise a mother than a father. At the third level, as we compare a child with its mother, one can now presume that all that a child has that is not shared with the mother comes from the father. At the fourth level, one can equally presume that all that a child doesn’t have in common with the parents comes from the grandparents...etc. We would like to affirm that the elements of nature and the universe in one’s identity are found through the readings of the bayuali and yennu.
It is this simple principle that led to the first temples ever built by humans. Every element that is part of universal energies is a deity and deserves to be honored as a God. It is from this principle that pyramids and temples that still impress us today were constructed, that is as expressions of human genius. Let’s observe that leaders of modern religions have also constructed cult areas, but these should not be compared with the jengili. The jengili is not an area for religious prayers. The jengili is a spiritual reality.
When Romans decided to create their own jengilis, they adopted the same procedure as Greeks. They tried to establish a relationship of spiritual and technical cooperation with Africa to provide priests for their initiations and control of their spiritual work in the Roman and Greek jengilis sent to them. This cooperation continued until the year 635 of the Christian period when it ended because modern religions changed their goals. The idea of a religious doctrine directed towards social organizations and structures was much more powerful and could serve their individual thirsts for glory far better than a religious doctrine directed towards cultivation of spiritual qualities.
It is very important to understand the magnitude and spiritual importance of the jengili. The jengili is considered the holiest area of a city, village, house or room. A novice can start by reserving a corner of his or her room, a corner of the house or circle of stones that he or she should call the jengili. They should keep it clean and holy and should meditate around the jengili only when they consider themselves clean enough.
This could appear to the mentality of the ignorant masses of today as a simple piece of information concerning the customs of some anonymous tribes on the other side of the world. These ignorant masses, conditioned by a modern social system that only leads to mutual and self-ignorance, are reduced to never knowing which questions to ask themselves... have we ever asked ourselves why modern religions are fighting what they call “idolatry”? Why are they striving to construct monuments, holy places, and temples? We all know that these religions are only mere walls to prevent humans from exploring their true nature and possibly discovering their inherent powers and forces. The idea of monuments or holy places has never been suggested by politicians (meaning the leading class of a society), by the masses or even by artists. It is a purely spiritual concept and a technique of spiritual advancement. Nowadays, Stonehenge and other megalithic monuments are presented as a mystery, with the intention being to mislead the fertile minds of certain individuals to speculations that preoccupy the attention of the public and distract them from the obvious realities of the modern lies.
Of course, given the intellectual and spiritual laziness of modern people, so ingeniously orchestrated and encouraged by the educational system, modern religions can proclaim themselves to be spiritual only by restricting their believers to just reciting prayers, without raising in them a single doubt about how solid their basic principles are.
The jengili is the essential base of a human’s spiritual life. It is its function is to serve as an energetic navel on every individual and, at the same time, as an umbilical cord through which energies flow from material and non-material forms. It is generally the place where the individual’s destinies are expressed in their energetic form, transcending space and time. Our energy dialogues with Earth through the Bayuali and the Yennu happen in the jengili. Manifestations of the consequences of our behaviours are perceived on the social level as either maledictions or benedictions from the jengili.
Another way of explaining the value of the jengili is through the Bayuali and the Yennu. The Bayuali is generally defined as the energetic channel through which Earth energies are emitted in response to cosmic energies, the goal being to express the energetic identity of the Earth through every one of its components. The Yennu is generally defined as the channel through which Cosmic energies are directed towards the center of the Earth through its every component. The Cosmic energies, arising on the level of every component of every planet, enter Earth through each jengili.
The circle of stones in the house has no goal other than to materially represent the altar. Let’s notice that the jengili is the only place that holds complete non-material proof of existence through all the cycles of reincarnation. In the jengili, one can invoke all of one’s ancestors and their reincarnations. This is why the jengili is perceived as the basis of our projections towards the future.
This brief chapter on the jengili should be placed very high in our consciousness. It is not a text that should call for the judgments or personal analysis of the reader. I allowed myself the liberty of opening one of the doors to the Light -- doors that were closed for ignorant and mere mortals -- because today’s world is hungry and thirsty for liberating knowledge. This book is one in a series to serve as the liberator of consciousness and souls. It brings vital waters to souls dying of thirst, and as elders in Merita say, one who is dying of thirst should not judge the hand giving the pot of water.
