Our task is now to prove ourselves capable of employing our talents and resources in the cause of United Kingdom Africans, African people, and the rest of the world. The way will be perilous sacrifices will be demanded of US. Our labours may go unobserved and our triumphs unnoticed except to ourselves. And in the ultimate sense, this is wholly as it should be, for we are men and women, and this is a man and a woman lot. Let us work together, arm in arm, as brothers and sisters, so that our progeny may live in peace and well-being and that prosperity will honour our names and our achievements. This will suffice. This will be Our Victory.

SHIVA MBA LA BABA Blessed Bhang!
He who, despite the example of the Rishis, uses no bhang shall lose his happiness in this life and in the life to come. In the end, he shall be cast into hell.
The mere sight of bhang cleanses from as much sin as a thousand horse sacrifices or a thousand pilgrimages.
He who scandalises the user of bhang shall suffer the torments of hell so long as the sun endures.
He who drinks bhang foolishly or for pleasure without religious rites is as guilty as the sinner of lakhs of sins.
He who drinks wisely and according to rule, be he ever so low, even though his body is smeared with human ordure and urine, is Shiva.
No god or man is as good as the religious drinker of bhang
“Bhanga is also called Ganja, Matulani, Madini (the intoxicating), Vijaya (the victorious), and Jaya (the victorious). It is antiphlegmatic, pungent, astringent, digestive, easy of digestion, acid, bile-affecting, and increases infatuation, intoxication, the power of the voice, and the digestive faculty.”
Indra’s food (i.e., ganja) is acidic, produces infatuation, and destroys leprosy. It creates vital energy, the mental powers, and internal heat, corrects irregularities of the phlegmatic humour, and is an elixir vitae. It was originally produced, like nectar, from the ocean by the churning with Mount Mandara, and inasmuch as it gives victory in the three worlds, it, the delight of the king of the gods, is called vijaya, the victorious. This desire-fulfilling drug was obtained by men on earth through desire for the welfare of all people. To those who regularly use it, it begets joy and destroys every anxiety.” see The Rajavallabha, a materia medica, by Narayanadasa kaviraja, 17th century.
Besides being a cure for fever, bhang has many medicinal virtues. It cools the heated blood, soothes the overwakeful to sleep, gives beauty, and secures length of days. It cures dysentery and sunstroke, clears phlegm, quickens digestion, sharpens appetite, makes the tongue of the lisper plain, freshens the intellect, and gives alertness to the body and gaiety to the mind. Such are the useful and needful ends for which, in his goodness, the Almighty made bhang. In this praise of the hemp, the Makhzan, or great Greek-Arab work on drugs, joins. Ganja in excess causes abscess, even madness. In moderation, bhang is the best of gifts. Bhang is a cordial, a bile absorber, an appetiser, a prolonger of life. Bhang quickens fancy, deepens thought, and braces judgement.
Oaths are taken on the bhang leaf. Even to a truthful witness, an oath on the bhang leaf is dreaded. To one who foreswears himself the bhang oath is death.
Fakir (the wise scribe) reveres bhang as the lengthener of life, the freer from the bonds of self. Bhang brings union with the Divine Spirit. ‘We drank bhang, and the mystery of who I am grew plain. So grand a result, so tiny a sin.’
The poet of Shiva sings of bhang as the clearer of ignorance, the giver of knowledge. No gem or jewel can touch in value bhang taken truly and reverently. He who drinks bhang drinks Shiva. The soul in whom the spirit of bhang finds a home glides into the ocean of being freed from the weary round of matter-blinded self. To the meaner man, still under the glamour of matter or maya, bhang taken religiously is kindly thwarting the wiles of his foes and giving the drinker wealth and promptness of mind.
And the Makhzan, or great Arab-Greek drug book, records many other fond names for the herb. Bhang is the joy-giver, the skyflier, the heavenly guide, the poor man’s heaven, and the soother of grief.
