 Rachel Edjeren Explains Her Warning That Indian Hair Can Come With Spirits


Rachael, a TV presenter had sometime ago shared on her blog how she fixed Indian hair, went to sleep and the hair chased her in her dream.
And this was happening after she and her hubby had seen a documentary on how ladies in India sacrifice their hair to the gods if they have nothing else (material/worthy) to sacrifice.

The story went viral online and had a lot of people criticizing Rachael for her view.
Rachael feels she was misunderstood, so here's her explanation of what she really meant.

''When I decided to change my hair-do, I did not anticipate the drama that would unfold from just fixing human hair.
 My Indian hair story found wings and soared on the Social Networks  like a Wild wind. It also created debates on radio stations and got to a point where I was invited for appearances on Television programmes but i turned these down because I wasn't ready to talk about it.
Now I am ready out of shock and ready to address the issues raised.
I raised some kind of awareness,I created some form of controversy,critics attacked me saying i already had a biased opinion that resulted in my experience.
Please hear me out...Again.

First I'll like to highlight that if you know me personally and my ministry, you would know that I fear nothing spiritually since I gave my life to Christ in 2004.
I am a firm believer that you have control over your circumstances and what affects your life and that explains why I chose to wear that hair notwithstanding what I know about sacrificed human hair.
I FEAR NOTHING EXCEPT GOD... and so to connote that I had that dream based on fear is absolutely out of context.
  Also to imply that it was due to the knowledge I had previously from the documentary I saw has no basis at all because that had been 2 years ago and i did not even have the experience at heart. To conclude that it was due to any knowledge/experience/fears I had previously on the hair is not doing justice to the experience and story because believe me, I had no reservations whatsoever on that hair. My belief was that as soon as it touched my head, all negativity was totally nullified.
Why did the dream occur and why was the story so popular? Simply because no evil came to me even though I was chased, it ended in victory. That being said, THE DREAM WAS JUST AN EYE OPENER. For whom? To whom it may concern!
God told me, He had a purpose for it. I don't confute God, I only try my best to carry out his will.

As to why I'm speaking up now, God is not an author of confusion so I will not produce a story that will create unrest and confusion, my message from God brings peace.
In conclusion,the intention was not to attack Indians - whom I love and admire very much - I did not intentionally set out to call out the dealers of human hair or ladies who buy and wear these human hair; In fact when you buy it and pay for it... you have authority over it...
When you buy hair, make sure it is medically sound. Also pray on it and sanctify it before use like you do all your other possessions especially because you will carry it with you day and night like your skin.

However, my advice is that you do not patronize the hair sacrificed to the gods. That's my opinion. .

In the heat of what happened to me, I said I won't wear human hair again but my dears, in life, tomorrow always turns a new page. I may or may not wear human hair. I may wake up tomorrow and decide to. It's all a matter of choice..
I may also decide to shave my hair, that doesn't change who I AM...

I AM STILL AN AFRICAN WOMAN... BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL.... NATURAL AND BLACK... A PROUD CITIZEN OF THE WORLD... WE ARE ALL SISTERS! LETS JUST ACT FROM A PLACE OF ENLIGHTENMENT. MAKE DECISIONS AND BE CONSCIOUS OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT SURROUND THOSE DECISIONS.
KNOW YOUR HAIR SISTER! WEAR CONSCIOUSLY.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.''
