  • The human constructs we live in, and how we don't need to be imprisoned by them forever. I left Christianity, and now I've left the Zulu tribe.

    Growing up in a township and only uncovering my lineage as far as Sophiatown, I realised that, "Neh man. I can change. All I need is to figure out what work and what doesn't and pass that down". This is great.

    I still haven't heard what it is you're going to stop about being Zulu. As you've said a lot has changed regarding culture, the majority of us only visit certain traditions and we don't practice them like the previous generations. So we are mostly Pedi/Venda/Tsonga etc. by our names, our mother tongue and location.
    What in particular is going to change from how you've been living your life as a Zulu man?

      @Theo@realnews As it currently stands in SA, the law is supreme for morality and comes from Roman-Dutch backgrounds, Latin before it. Second comes Religion, with Christianity being topic in SA. Most ppl have no idea what morality means kwaZulu, where murder was allowed. Where ukuthwala was allowed. You don't have to agree with my logic, but I believe it's sound and based on research and history.

    You have succinctly captured your own "madness" I respect that n I say madness because you have to be insane to go against the tide. I however want to remind you that "I'm going to raise my kids/children my way" sounds like repetition of exactly what you're walking away from. Khalil Gibran once said your children are not yours but sons n daughters of life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you n yes you may even can house their bodies but never their souls. They need love, give them that not your thoughts because they have their own. Penuelism is good but because it's attached to you, it's rather relative so instead of lobbying for subscription to it, rather encourage people to be themselves not penuelists otherwise you then concede that life is whole as it is n needs no validation from anyone or anything n those who dare think they have anything new to offer humbly come to realize that there's nothing new under the son.

      Beautifully written.
      I used to wish that everyone could be free but I've since realized that most ppl have a desperate need for a home. Whether religion or culture or other.
      Penuelism is my attempt at building my own home. My kids will be raised in it, however are free to go elsewhere once they are strong enough to.
      And those who like what my home offers may come live in it and under my rules.

      @@godpenuel you are so right about people's desperation to belong. It is this innate desire, the ravenous need that exposes us to exploitation and in many instances abuse of some sort. It takes a very enlightened soul to appreciate the premise from which this emanates, a premise that reminds us never to be beguiled by the elusive nature of separatism. We are one hence the need to belong, we are one with nature in its plenitude of forms and any separation from the one feels so unnatural we end up accepting of anything that takes us back to what we naturally are.

    You have gotten some things right, but you missed the fandamentals. I understand you are on a path to finding the truth. Hopefully you find it in time.
    I agree with you on the tribe issue. This is what I tell most people. In fact if you look the Zulu people, for example, most of them are not born from the Zulu family. They were forcefully converted by Shaka through violence. In some tribes, people were classified by the apartheid government in the bantu stans. In Pre-colonial times, people would leave their tribes and join the another one and be what those people are. For example we have Ntuli, Jiyana, Motshweni who are now Ndebele because they sattled under the Ndebele people.
    Our forefathers used to be nomads.
    You seem thinking than just reading, which is what many don't do. As I can't right everything here but it seems you are on the to finding the truth.

    Most of what you say makes semse. But I think there are some blind spots you are ignoring. These things have taken million of years to creare and for them to come of a place where they are generally accepted norms. At least from listening to you I gathered that we can agree on that. Therefore i hope you are willing to wait hundreds of years for people to know what it is to be a Panuelist. We know that the human brain automates some of the functions because it wants to be efficient, it doesn't want to have to go through the process of reinventing the wheel or recalculating each it is confronted with a similar situation. So there is an element of the things you spoke about that are based of people wanting to make their lives efficient so that they don't have to define what it means to be a certain type of a person. Also remember that creating a certain code of living or a cultural identity didint only took people who were willing it also took the dying of those who didn't agree to certain things, similar here I may agree to a few of your points but How will you convince me to adopt the entire code of what it means to be a Panuelist because as with anything not all of it makes sense.
