Irreecha and Zar are connected. And the proof is in the word itself.

The Sky-God Line This Is The Important Part

The word "Zar" comes from the ancient Cushitic sky-god.

· In Agaw: ğar

· In Kaffa: yarō

· In Buoro: darō

That same sky-god root connects to Waaqa the Oromo supreme being. So Zar is not some foreign spirit that wandered into Ethiopia. Zar IS the old sky-god. The same one. Just renamed.

When Christianity and Islam came, the old sky-god was demoted. Turned into a "spirit." Turned into something to be feared. But the root stayed.

What This literally Means

1. Irreecha honors Waaqa the sky-god.

2. Zar comes from the same sky-god just demonized over time.

3. Qallu serves Waaqa. The Ayyaana are Waaqa's messengers.

4. Zar possession? That's the same spiritual current, renamed and pushed underground.

Even the rirual happens when People gathering under a tree, Or offering a grass to the tree ( i dunno the meaning tho), Dancing. Movements with Siinqe that ARE likely the same as Zar. Everyone in Ethiopia knows about Zar. It's not hidden. It's everywhere.

The point is, I'm not saying Irreecha causes earthquakes. That's not the argument.

The argument is, Zar and Waaqa are the same root.

The sky-god was split into "good" (Waaqa) and "bad" (Zar) by later religions. But the root is one.

Qallu. Ayyaana. Zar. Irreecha. Same tree. Different branches. I'm not asking for proof. I'm telling you what I know.

If you're Ethiopian, probably you already know.

If you're not, listen to the people who lived it. Can anyone tell me about the connection you noticed about them?

For atheists: I'm a theist trying to understand your view. Where do you think life on Earth originally came from, and what do you think caused it? I'm not looking to debate just genuinely curious how you'd explain it.

And how could our consciousness came from if there's nothing behind it?

Genuinely curious!

Hey everyone,

I've been looking into what's often called "sex ritual", and I want to share what I've found.

In East Africa, there's a belief in spirits called Zar. They're like humans, they have gender, desires, and can possess people.

Female Zar possess men and

Male Zar possess women

When possessed, the person experiences sexual pleasure, either through masturbation or erotic dreams. Many people wake up feeling like they've had sex, or find semen on their sheets.

Why do they do it?

To maintain their bloodline with humans, creating hybrid Zar-human offspring. Their long-term goal? To eventually take over.( If there's interest, I can share what their aim and the backstory of these spirits is in my follow up post),

The relationship damage:

If a man is possessed by a female Zar, he enjoys sex with her. But when he tries to be intimate with his wife or girlfriend, the spirit sabotages it, loss of arousal, premature ending, no pleasure. The relationship breaks down. Same for women with male Zars.

This is common in Ethiopia and East Africa.

So my question to you

How do you interpret this?

Similar beliefs exist in other cultures I'd love to hear yours.

Alright, I want to start by asking: What exactly do "Good" and "Evil" mean objectively? If you can bring me one person who can definitively, universally point to the difference between them, I'll rethink my entire worldview. What's the criteria of Good and Bad things?

But as it stands, I genuinely don't believe there are evil or good things in this world. Not as actual, cosmic realities.

Here’s my take,They’re just ideas,constructs that humans and God created to maintain order. Specifically, to fulfill God's own purposes. That literally means there is no inherent evil or good. They don't exist in the fabric of the universe.

Take killing, for example. Is killing inherently evil? I’d Argue no.It’s just an action. But since God created humans for a specific purpose,to live, to serve His agenda,killing becomes labeled "evil" because it violates what God gave to that person. It’s not evil because of some universal moral law, it’s evil because it interferes with God's plan for that individual.

God gave us rules because we're driven by emotions and impulses that would constantly disrupt His purposes. The categorization of "good" and "bad (evil)" is just a thought framework to keep us in line. As a reality? As a cosmic truth? They never existed.

So, that's my position. I'd love to hear your thoughts, pushback, or questions. And if you have questions about my perspective, fire away,I'm open to discussing it.

TL;DR: Good and evil aren't objective truths. They're just labels invented by God (and humans) to protect His divine purposes. it's only "evil" because it violates God's plan for human life. Change my view.

Heyy guys, I'm 18 years old,

i recently realized that people Especially (Gen zers) are normalizing things that used to be considered as an embarrassing thing, Now on social Medias and everywhere, people my age say that they're masturbating and Normalizing it by laughing and knowing that they'll keep doing it,

ik I'm not saying I'm perfect lol, somethings should remain secret and private, they say it Proudly like they do something Adventurous,If they actually need a psychological support, That's okay but they already enjoy doing such lustful things, I wanna help them but they see me like an old fashioned person bcz they think being up-to-date is following what others do (blindly!),

any ideas are appreciated from you guys?

Hey everyone I'm 18M(if that matters for the dream)

Last night I had a really vivid dream, and one thing kept showing up throughout it kissing.

In one part of the dream, a neighbor of mine (an older guy) was acting unusually cheerful around me. He was kissing my cheeks and even my neck. It didn't feel scary or threatening in the dream,just very strange and unexpected. In another part, I saw my aunt's little daughter. She used to live in our house but moved away today. In the dream, I kissed her affectionately, and her too she's js 2months old, and when i came close to her with my cheeks expecting she'd kiss me, And she kissed me more than 2 times, (was amazed how could a 2months old child kiss) , it's kind of like how you'd show love to a child you care about.

When I woke up my aunt and the child was gone to their village, I realized the common theme throughout the dream was kissing and affection. it was just a lot of different forms of affection showing up in different situations.Generally i saw when i was kissed and when i kissed! 😁

Has anyone had dreams where the same action or theme keeps repeating with different people? Do you think dreams like this have any meaning, or are they just random brain activity? And insights for this dream?
