Kalanga-Karanga People Worship Using A Triangle Like King Solomon?

There is a chap who claims to have been a member of the freemasonry secret societies and, therefore, privy to to the inner workings of the societies. He made a movie in which he reenacts what transpires in the secret lodges. The name of King Solomon features quite prominently in the movie. As I was watching the movie, I was taken aback when the man and his fellow actors pulled out an object with a white equilateral triangle. A white circle was in the middle of the triangle. According to the narrative and reenactment, this equilateral triangle is used as the focus of the prayer service or ritual.

In the narrative, we are told that what is captured in the movie is a replication of the protocol used by King Solomon. To those who read the Bible studiously, they may know that Solomon was said to have the ability to communicate with the dead. His ability to engage in this necromancy is said to have been enabled by by an object he received from his Egyptian wife. This object was kept in a place in the Holy of Holies. The place is called the ORACLE. In 1 Kings 6 verses 19 and 20, the Bible says: "And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD." Whenever Solomon wanted to talk to the Lord, he went into the oracle. He made his prayers or imprecations facing the object underneath the wings of the cherubim. In 2 Samuel 6 verse 4, that object had a name. The name was THE LORD.

In the movie, that object is said to be an equilateral triangle. I read the Bible. King Solomon is one of the Biblical characters I find quite interesting. When I see someone talking about shapes and their geometries, I pay attention. As an undergraduate student, I had a great teacher, Professor Zvipo-Hazvienzani Simoyi, who taught a whole university super course on shapes and geometry, what is called Group Theory.

Anyhow, my academic fascination with shapes and geometry aside, took a curious but entirely unexpected turn as I was reading Hall and Neal's book, The Ancient Ruins of Rhodesia, a second edition of which was published in 1904. The two writers tells what they witnessed as they embarked on a serious study and documentation of the customs of the indigenous people of Zimbabwe. Here is one anthropological observation they felt needed to be captured in ink on paper:

"In every family residence," wrote Hall and Neal, "there is a place under a raised platform of of poles where THREE STONES ARE SET IN A TRIANGLE. THESE ARE DEDICATED TO THE ANCESTORS OF THE RESIDENTS. HERE, AT TIMES OF SICKNESS OR AT THE SOWING OR HARVESTING OF CORN, THE FAMILY GATHER[S]. A hoe, an axe, and, if the head of the family be a smith, a hammer also, are placed by the STONES [ ARRANGED IN A TRIANGULAR GEOMETRY]. A pot of beer is brought, and the head of the family, taking some of this in a calabash. and raising it, the RECITES WORDS TO THE EFFECT THAT THEY KNOW WHEREFORE THE SICKNESS COMES, BUT FEAR THE SPIRITS ARE HUNGRY, and he says, 'Here, father, is thy food.' He then pours the beer on the ground by the STONES."

After this pacification of the ancestor, said father mentioned during the offering of the libation beer, and the rest of the offering beverage has been ritually consumed by children, Hall and Neal further on say: "Then all rise and stand around the stones with hands upraised, each hand full of corn. The [earthly] father [in his role as the presiding family priest] then recites a prayer for the diseased member of the family, or for the prosperity of the crops, as the case may be, and all simultaneously cast the corn down on the STONES, where it is left for the birds." We are also told that; "Some [ethnic] groups place a python skin by the stones for this ceremony."

My main focus in noting this pertains to the TRIANGLE geometry and how in the case of Solomon and what we were practicing only 113 years ago are almost identical. As a matter of fact, the use of triangle-shaped geometrical figures to communicate with the ancestors was observed as recent as the 1970s. It is also worth noting that this practice antedates what is recorded in the Bible in the narrative of King Solomon by thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians left us records of prayers conducted by priests kneeling before triangles. To a freemason anthropologist familiar with Judaism and ancient Egyptian anthropology, the moment he or she notices a peasant family in rural Zimbabwe conducting a religious service, he or she has to be captivated by the ceremony.

If we are not careful, we risk losing this ancient knowledge and an inheritance endowed us in antiquity. It will be a real shame and a cultural crime we commit against our children, their children and posterity. We have to act to revive and conserve our heritage. Our survival and sense of worthiness depend on this heritage.
