Melanin Production

From the Melanated Man:

 

Refer to previous post: An Introduction to Melanin

So what exactly is melanin? If you had to put a scientific term on melanin, it would be classified as a dark carbon compound, secreted by the pineal gland. The Pineal gland is a small endocrine (hormone system) gland located behind the third ventricle of the brain. The gland is slightly smaller than a green pea and weighs less than two grams. The stimulation of the pineal gland is crucial to the growth of the nervous system’s cerebrum (thinking part of the brain called gray matter) as well as the ability to produce melanin as mentioned before.

What gives the pineal gland the ability to secrete melanin? SUNLIGHT! NOT ARTIFICIAL LIGHT, which at some point, its harmful effects will be discussed at greater depth. The sun radiates the full of spectrum of light to the retina of the eyes, which is connected to the brain, which activates the pineal gland to produce melanin (*Sungazing anyone?) Melanin is then turned into serotonin and melatonin.

 

*Serotonin– hormone thought to be active in constricting smooth muscles, transmitting impulses between nerve cells, regulating cyclic body processes and CONTRIBUTING TO WELLBEING AND HAPPINESS.

*Melatonin- hormone that is known to regulating your body’s circadian rhythm, along with many other wonderful benefits.

 

If sunlight is important to melanin production, and black people have the highest concentration of melanin among all types of people on the planet, then what does that say about us?

WE ARE THE MOST NATURAL PEOPLE ON THE PLANET!!!

 

The amount of sunlight we receive not only as children but as adults is CRUCIAL. You are like a flower or any other green plant, in need of chlorophyll (melanin) to survive. Plants need SUNLIGHT and that’s it. *Same thing with black-melanated people.

But…

We don’t get that much sunlight, especially in this day age and age. We are afraid to get out in the sun, not realizing it is to our benefit. We are too CIVILIZED and MODERN to take advantage of what the Creator has given us. I prefer the term colonization. If you are not familiar with that term, I suggest you do a quick Google search. That word should be in your mental vocabulary. But anyway…

This artificial life is killing us. And when I mean artificial I mean:

-*TV

-*Cell phones

-*Computers (which is killing as I type!)

-*DEAD food (that is processed, refined, DENATURED!)

-*Cars

-*Sunglasses

-*Video games

-*Noise pollution

-*Fluorescent lights

…*And so much more!! (All of your artificial light cause *radiation, which we all know kills you.)

All these things affect your melanin production. We are hit with these devices EVERYDAY. But we are civilized. We have been brought from out of the darkness (dark matter=melanin) into the light (artificial light that is!)

Think about it like this: The gorilla can live more than 200 years in the wild without interruption. Take that same gorilla and place him in a zoo or circus, it maybe lives to 60, but that is a stretch. * Is it possible we can live as long as Methuselah, who lived until the ripe age of 969, in the proper environment?  

Damn it, we are trapped in a cage. We are VOLUNTARILY killing ourselves to remain civilized. Only difference in being in actual prison is that prisoners are placed there AGAINST their will.  But there’s no difference because I guarantee they get as much sunlight as non-prisoners do, if not more.*

(Hence, besides the fact that of *New Jim Crow prison industrial complex, it makes me wonder that may be the underlying reason why over half of the prison population is black –melanated, and brown skinned. Hmmmm.)

 

I can go on and on about this. And I will, in future posts. The most important advice you should receive from this post is to get as much sunlight as possible and limit your exposure to the artificial mess to a bare minimum (not at all is asking too much…for now.) And as I end this, I will enjoy myself with my kids outside while we bask in the sunlight, blessed upon us by our Creator. I feel joy just knowing that!

 

Peace, Love, and Blessings to my Melanated family,

The Melanated Man

Words that start with EN: Enjoy

Previous post of words that start with EN: Enlighten

 

From the Melanated Man:

Enjoy or Enjoyment:

verb:

1. take delight or pleasure in (an activity or occasion).
2. possess and benefit from.
noun:
1. the state or process of taking pleasure in something.
2. the action of possessing and benefiting from something.
As stated previously, the etymology of the letters en means “inner ” or “within.” Joy is defined as ” a feeling of great pleasure and happiness.” So in my mind, enjoyment SHOULD mean that pleasure and happiness comes from within. Nothing external is giving us pleasure or happiness if we are enjoying something. Am I correct?
Why is it that when we talk about enjoyment we refer to something outside of ourselves? Damn English language!
We have to go to an amusement park to find our enjoyment…
We have to eat a slice a pizza or fried chicken or ice cream to find our enjoyment…
We have to watch the Super Bowl, NBA Finals, etc. to find our enjoyment…
We have to go to the movies, go out to dinner, play video games, or even reading a book to FIND our enjoyment. (If you’re reading for knowledge/information that’s different.)
And the list goes on and on…
The common denominator is that these are EXTERNAL influences. We are only consuming. Gross overconsumption. Throwing our precious money away to ENJOY ourselves.
What does that say about us black, melanated folks (or people in general?) Are we really that empty inside?
Our joy should come from within; the fact that we have life and breathe and a fluid state of mind should give us all the enjoyment we need. Why is it that we need more than that to sustain our happiness? We should bring that joy from within ourselves into the world, not vice versa.
We shouldn’t just be witnesses to other peoples’ (Caucasians) idea of enjoyment. We shouldn’t take what is given to us because we are greater than that. We have to be the creators of our own universe, our enjoyment. This “MATRIX” is set up to feed off the unhealthy appetites (not just food) of the common man and woman.  Once we realize that we are not in need of any pleasure or happiness from the establishment, then the system will cease to exist.
If we keep perpetuating this current idea of seeking our joy outside of ourselves, we will continue to perish.
Peace and love to the melanated family,
The Melanated Man

 

Introduction to Metaphysics

From the Melanated Man:

 

What is Metaphysics:

(Definition from Google.com)

-the branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things, including abstract concepts such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time, and space.

-abstract theory or talk with no basis in reality.

In layman’s terms, metaphysics is the study of the unseen and unknown. It is what some religious and spiritual believers would call faith, which is 0.1% true. It involves those things that go beyond our three (3) dimensional reality. We are influenced by the unseen (dark matter!!) everyday, through our thoughts and beliefs in everyday living and life in general. Everything we create, build, and produce comes from abstract thought. Our enlightenment is influenced by the metaphysical world. Those with a high concentration of melanin can tap into the metaphysical realm, beyond the current 3D reality, at a deeper level than everybody else. Hence, the importance of melanin.

How else do you explain practices like voodoo, tarot card readings, psychics, etc. Oh, I forgot, that is ludicrous. Who would believe that nonsense? Well they are making money so it must be some truth to it (or people are disparate, right?) You can play on the emotions of others to steal a dollar from the unknowing sheep, but in my opinion, the science is valid.

You have to learn the information for yourself so you won’t be tricked. Have the mindset of “always asking questions.” That is how you learn metaphysics, or anything that MATTERS. Metaphysics is rarely found in the educational realm, so you have to dig deep for the information. A simple Google search will give you basic information regarding the subject. You can also start with cosmology and astronomy, which both topics will receive a post at some point. Cosmology and Astronomy are mocked by the general population, but for those in the know, it is very important into understanding  metaphysics and how things operate in the universe.

Remember, learning goes beyond the doors of the schoolhouse and pages of a textbook given to us by the powers that be. Become a life-long learner. Always ask questions. Expand your mind. FREE YOUR MIND!!! That is the greatest advice I can give anyone. Let’s learn some METAPHYSICS!

 

Peace and Love from the Melanated Man…

 

Words that start with EN: Enlighten

by in Metaphysics | 4 Comments

From the Melanated Man:

 

Enlighten:

-to give (someone) greater knowledge and understanding about a subject or situation.

-to give (someone) spiritual knowledge or insight.

 

The etymology of the first two letters en means “in or within.” Light illuminates and brightens, just like consciousness. Inner light. So why does the Webster Dictionary define the word enlighten with “someone giving knowledge or insight to another?” The correct term would be “exlighten,” and as I type that word Spellcheck does not recognize it. Figures…damn English language. But I was enlightened to create a word that makes sense according to the definition that is widely assumed by the sheep, or the unconscious.

To be enlightened is to be illuminated from within. To gain spiritual knowledge from within. To gain understanding from within. And how do you gain the knowledge? Having a connection with the Creator and respecting the world outside and inside yourself. We become the producers of our reality.

You can’t gain KNOWLEDGE from within when there is chaos within your universe. Unhealthy appetites ranging from denatured, refined, and genetically-modified foods; illegal  and legal drugs; and federal-authorized vaccines. We are destroying the temple God gave us, yet we still pray asking for a healing and a miracle. The games we play with ourselves.

Let’s gain the ENLIGHTENMENT that we have been seeking day and night for by taking care of ourselves, the right way! God gave us everything we need to live this life. Don’t abuse it.

 

Be Blessed Melanated Family!!
