Obaba Museum

Out of utter confusion,
I sought help for the questions on my mind ,
With things happening around me,
which seemed not so right,
But who to show me the way,
No one then…

I searched the East and West,
To find answers to the questions my soul asked,
But didn’t get one
North and South too,
But all to no avail…

Out of curiosity,
I tried the 5 times a day form of worship (Islam),
Facing the kibla in reverence and ablution for purity,
Still no answer pleased my soul there,
I sought the knowledge of the use of light (Eckankar),
Seating like a monk and chanting ‘hu’ in meditation,
But I never saw the light I sought for there,

At a time I followed Abd Ru Shin (Grail message),
But even got more confused,
I gave our African tradition a try,
They all were scary and imputed grave fear in my heart.

Hun (sighs)
I left the shrine and went to several churches,
I was annoyed cos most were money minded and didn’t give the needed word,
Those that gave the word, did so with a tone of judgement and condemnation,
I started loosing hope, resigning to fate and finally doubting His existence,
I became disillusioned with His existence; an atheist you may call me,
But how foolish I was cos He sure does exist.

Well I never totally gave up,
I decided to try one more time,
That day I entered where the saints were gathered,
In true reverence for God and love for one another,
In peace and harmony,
Tranquillity came upon my soul as I heard the word,
Which took my fears away,

and answers that my soul sought were coming,
The truth I sought for all this while was unravelled,
I believed, through the revelation of this truth and became saved,
No more fear of hell but expectant joy of heaven,
No more damnation but salvation,
No more condemnation but redemption,
I no longer belong to the Prince of Deceit cos now I am a saint.
