Dantor is the patron loa of lesbian women, fierce protector

love, and sensuality are Her Creations. Emotions are what link Her to the
endless reservoir of universal creativity.
“She has tribal scars on Her cheek, and is considered
heterosexual because She has children, but She is also the patron loa of
lesbian women. Thus, She loves women fiercely, and will defend them to the
death. She loves knives and is considered the protector of newly consecrated
Voodoo priests and priestesses, as well as of women and children who are
victims of domestic violence, and women who have been betrayed by a lover.
She is highly respected and much feared due to Her Woman Power.
Most Haitian women serve Dantor, and she is also the patron loa of New Orleans
and so she is served by many there as well. She also supports independent
business women and is the patron of women’s finances. Many women invoked
Erzulie Dantor against their partners (male or female) should they become
violent. And enlightened men also serve Dantor, especially men who honor, love
and respect women.”

In Hinduism, cows are thought to be sacred, or deeply respected. They are held in high esteem and Hindus worship cows. Cows are seen as a 'caregiver' or maternal figure. One Hindu goddess, Bhoomi (à¤ुमि), is usually shown in the form of a cow. She represents the Earth. Most Hindus respect cows for their gentle nature, and also represent strength. Hindus who eat meat will avoid eating beef.
There is a festival to thank cows for serving farmers for agriculture, This festival is called as "Mattupongal" which is one among the four days of the grand Indian festival called the Pongal which is completely focused on thanking each and every agricultural implement.
Kemet is humanity’s oldest documented culture
and the inspiration for everything associated with civilisation and human
genius. Kemet is most commonly associated with Ancient Egypt. It is the
civilisation that produced the pharaohs, the pyramids, the hieroglyphs and
countless wonders that modern scientists, engineers and academics still do not
understand. Unfortunately, most sources offering insight into Kemet are
foreigners to the culture and are incapable of representing it accurately
Here are some notable misunderstandings about Kemet
Kemet has never been limited by geographical borders. Kemet
is any land under the care of Kemetic people. While the NileValley region was the capital of
Kemet and the seat of the Pharaoh, Kemet is a global culture with a historical
presence on every habitable continent. Evidence of its global reach can be seen
in the pyramids and other great structures across the world which are
strikingly similar to structures found along the NileValley. Kemet is the mother culture
to all cultures considered indigenous or native in the world. Evidence can be
easily seen in the many common values, traditions and cultural expressions of
indigenous cultures worldwide.
Kemet is a dead civilization
Historically, Kemet was known worldwide for its mastery of
nature and the stability of its civilisation. This stability and mastery
enabled Kemet to amass great wealth as seen in the great monuments that are
still standing after thousands of years of neglect and pillaging. This wealth
attracted the envy of barbarian societies from the north and east where food
and resources were scarce. These societies invaded and looted Kemet for
thousands of years until the leaders of Kemet decided to abandon the Nile
Valley and relocate and rebuild in other places in the world, primarily in Sub-Saharan
Africa. To avoid attracting attention, Kemetic societies no longer constructs
the large monuments as before, however the culture continues to be preserved
intact.
Kemet was not an African Civilization
Now that modern science has agreed that humanity originated
in Africa and concrete evidence of a civilisation
preexisting Kemet cannot be shown, it should be obvious that the first humans
created the first civilization all on the continent of Africa.
However, a consistent effort has been made by the powers of the modern world to
depict Kemetic Civilisation having Arab, Hebrew or even European origins. While
the modern day “Egyptian” is more commonly of Arabian descent, this is the
result of the aforementioned migration of Kemetic people away from the NileValley. There many clear
connections between Kemetic Culture and the many African Cultures across the
continent. Some of the most obvious connections are polytheism and Ancestor
worship, both of which Arab cultures reject.
Why is Kemet important?
Kemet is humanity’s first civilisation. It is the first
organised system human beings used to separate ourselves from animal behavior.
The goal of Kemetic Civilisation has always been to provide humanity with a
model and a support system to live in harmony with nature and to advance
towards the Divine World. With over 100,000 years of collective knowledge,
Kemet stands as the most advanced and refined culture in human history. Under
the majesty of Kemet, humanity prospered and nature was preserved. The scientific
discoveries and technological advances of Kemet are still unmatched by modern
societies and the spiritual understandings remain a complete mystery to
outsiders. By contrast, what can we say about the modern alternatives?
“Humanity has continued its so-called ‘glorious progress’,
pulled by the nose by a system that has become master in the art of fooling and
manipulating people. A materialistic
philosophy had, in all logic, led to the constitution of a society with values
based almost entirely on the appearance of things. For individuals, emphasis of the superficial
aspect of modern society threw away the depths and the essence of things
themselves. Time after time this system
finds itself in absurd situations because the preceding logic on which it depends
does not function anymore. When this
occurs, new ideas are very quickly injected by the holders of power or by
leaders who desperately try to keep their heads above water.”
Dusky complexion makes a woman look real, achievable and
sensuous without looking unattainable and plastic. A dark looking women looks
earthly and identifiable rather than ethereal or angelic, they have an aura of
exoticness.
