I think the rest of us are rather envious of our African cousins on account of their easy ability to teach regular people about orgonite. In the West, the only people interested in this sort of thing are the tiny minority who aren’t afraid to express curiosity but thanks to the internet, that little demographic provides a profitable market, albeit spread out geographically.
It wasn’t always this easy for the Africans, as you may know. When the original kikundi members were introducing orgonite to their communities they encountered a lot of resistance and suspicion for several years, lest we forget.
I was interested when Lilian first joined the kikundi due to her location in Jinja, which is the small city where the Nile empties out of Lake Victoria. Drs Batiibwe and Kayiwa and I flipped all the death towers in and around that town not long after they, Georg and I also put a bunch of orgonite in the river at its source, also at Bujagali Falls, some miles downstream, where Idi Amin and the other British-sponsored terrorist dictator who came after him had routinely emptied dumptruck loads of the corpses of their victims into the river. We actually paid a young fellow to drop some of the orgonite in the falls themselves; he earned a living riding down the falls and rapids while clutching to a small plastic barrel for tourists. Right after he finished that run the sky filled with large bats that suddenly flew up from the bushes that covered the small island, downstream and all of us felt inspired and uplifted by that. My companions felt that these bats represented the freeing of entrapped human spirits from the period of oppression. By the time I got there in late 2002 I didn’t see any trace of oppression in Uganda and the people seemed quite hopeful about the future. I didn’t even see any beggars in our working travels through the country, even in the drastically impoverished war zone in the north.
Thanks for the update, Baba Carol (Dancan’s daughter is named ‘Carol’–I’m Baba Nora). We didn’t attempt to teach people about orgonite when I was in Uganda, though many people we met, especially children, politely accepted some orgonite. The kikundi’s patient and persistent work has earned widespread interest and acceptance, rather. it was a smart move to disseminate this among the fishermen on Lake Victoria because that’s a mobile population, as you described, and especially since the fishing around the coasts of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania has increased so much due to your work.
I enjoyed watching the fishing boats on Lake Victoria, which resemble Arab dhows. In those days, nobody had put orgonite into the lake, yet, so most of the fishing was out of sight of land, in the deeper water. In 2010, soon after Dancan had systematically gifted along the shore of the bay where Kisumu is, he filmed a woman who was trying to haul in a net full of fish while standing on the beach. She didn’t own a boat but had access to a net. It was literally too heavy for her to move it and that was graphic proof that the fish population had suddenly increased in those waters.
I think Dancan, Chris and Nicholas have even used sails on their boats; the big lateen sails like the Arabs use which are efficient for windward sailing. Western sails weren’t efficient to windward until the introduction of dacron for sails after WWII . When Carol was in Mombasa in 2001 she was taken for an excursion on a sailboat like that out to the coral reef.
Doc Batiibwe and his associate, Kizira Ibrahim, a traditional doctor, were the first to distribute orgonite from a boat in Lake Victoria, not long after my visit there. They rented a motorboat and covered most of the coastline between Jinja and Entebbe, also among the Ssese Islands but I don’t think they returned to see the changes and if memory serves they didn’t make an effort to educate fishermen. I wonder sometimes about the significance of these ‘seeding’ efforts, though. For instance, Carol was the first to put orgonite in the dark continent and three years later, in 2004, I was contacted by two people from the small area where she had worked: David Ochieng and Fatieno Odondi. They hadn’t known about Carol’s visit, our work in Namibia or my work in Uganda, as far as I know. Georg in Johannesburg got busy with orgonite in early 2002, shortly after Carol and I were nearby in Namibia.
The other thing about the initial Nile work that seems worth mentioning is our experience (Doc Batiibwe, Georg and I) with Mr Kizira at a little shrine on a sacred island in the Nile, just downstream of Bujagali Falls. Doc B had hired a motorboat to ferry us all to that island and Mr Kizira had brought along his son (who played the drum) a medium and her infant grand daughter because he was concerned that the guardian spirit, named Bujagali, had deserted that area after the British-sponsored mass murder period that immediately followed independence. Through the medium, he contacted the entity, who then returned. I held the baby during the ritual . We had made a special piece of orgonite for the shrine. Mr K is a terrific psychic and I love working with competent and experienced psychics. In Africa, traditional doctors (I like to call them, ‘witches and witch doctors’ but in Africa that’s often seen to refer to sorcerers) are as popularly regarded and accepted as electricians, plumbers and psychologists are here.
The African reports give me hope that Western farmers and commercial fishermen will also someday open their minds and hearts enough to realize the benefits and profitability of orgonite. Since nearly all of the prolific orgonite fingers in the world vigorously avoid public notice, this forum wouldn’t be very durable or useful if not for the kikundi’s (they live in five countries in East Africa and we may soon also have a contributor in Ghana, West Africa) abundant and regular field reports. Most of the rest of us on this forum, after our initial periods of intense activity, are now only sporadic orgonite flingers, some of us longing to afford the time and money to commit to more big campaigns.
