Yoruba, the Conqueror of Himself

17 Feb 2009| By Dr SC Spinoza

If somebody tells you ‘Y is G’, you know that it is either true or false depending on what the variables stand for. Further verification is required to ascertain the truth of the matter because no intellectual or spiritual vision can give the truth value of the matter.

Now supposing someone told you ‘Yoruba is Yoruba’, you know immediately that the answer can never be either true or false because you are not given two choices but one. Every soul understands it, not because the soul is divine or intellectual or spiritual, but because if it is not true, it is not said and it is not understood.

Therefore true things which are seen by the soul are extremely similar. They are similar to both things of the past and things yet to appear and occupy the soul’s vision and space in the future.

It follows then that the first type of statement, which is openly uttered but uttered with unstable and closed variabilities, is sometimes uttered with obscured meanings and figurative pronouncements designed to obfuscate the soul’s vision and mission.

But if somebody told you you were a Yoruba and therefore not strange to yourself, answer him that ‘Yoruba’ and ‘strange’ are closed variabilities with equivalent meanings unbeknown to only those whose souls refuse to see the obvious stability in such visions.

Likewise, those who believe that ‘the movement of the stars’ is equivalent to ‘I am gazing at the stars as they move’ are mistaken because the stars are stable and stationary while they are unstable and moving.
