Anakhanda Shaka Mushaba
Grand Master Teacher of the Mushaba Force Frequencies
Author
As the innovator behind the Mushaba Force System, author and martial arts expert Anakhanda Shaka Mushaba has dedicated much of his life to teaching people the many physical and mental benefits of martial arts.
A Grand Master of martial arts since 1984, Mushaba has developed his own unique system of martial arts called the Mushaba Esoteric Movements of Life and Sound. Together with the Mushaba Force System, this technique enhances mental health by facilitating harmony and balance of the body and mind, creating a mental state similar to that of deep meditation.
Mushaba, a member of the World Martial Arts Hall of Fame, and also featured in the documentary film Warrior Within, alongside actor and martial arts expert Bruce Lee, designed his martial arts system using a combination of movement and breathing techniques that use the energies of Mother Nature and the universe to the body’s advantage.
Mushaba’s book grew from his Mushaba Energy of Love and Light practice, along with the Mushaba esoteric Movements of Life and Sound. Mushaba describes in Mind over Illusion how these energies are essential to letting go of fears, understanding your own beliefs and taking back the power in your life.
Along with martial arts, Mushaba has studied the Law of Attraction theory or “secret,” which is based on the belief that positive thinking is the key to achieving happiness and success. However, during his studies, Mushaba realized that positive thinking is not enough.
As he explains in his book, Mind Over Illusion: (Mushaba Center, February 2009, $17.00, ISBN 978-1-60461-403-9), a person’s thinking has the power to either free them or enslave them. “At any point in time, your thoughts and actions are either contributing to your success or contributing to your failure. There are no other choices,” says Mushaba.
When we focus on negative thoughts, they become hardwired in us and thus are harder to overcome. Mushaba, who frequently conducts workshops on healing and transformation, explains that people can quickly override a negative thought with a positive one if they know how. Mind over Illusion discusses how to take conscious action to harness the energies of the earth and prevent these harmful thoughts from controlling your fate. Mushaba’s book also explores “the secret” and provides insight on understanding what the secret is and making it work. He explains that the key is to become conscious of your unconscious.
“Many people believe that the principle of the Law of Attraction or ‘the secret’ is the answer and that through positive affirmations all problems can be solved,” says Mushaba. “Unfortunately, just thinking positively isn’t always enough and the frustrations of seeing no results can be overwhelming.”
“In Truth there is no secret, we have simply forgotten on own innate power within”. Mushaba’s motivation to write Mind Over Illusion stemmed from a desire to help readers facilitate the flow of positive energy by removing the mental and spiritual obstacles they themselves create, which prevent them from succeeding in a variety of major life arenas, including finances, relationships, and professional careers.
In addition to working as a full-time writer, Mushaba runs his own security agency in Los Angeles, Calif. Called Angel Force Special Protection Agency and is an ordained minister of healing. He has worked with the Hartford Connecticut Police Force to form the Police Youth Commissions, and has volunteered with the Center of Abused Children in North Hollywood, Calif. Mushaba also taught martial arts to nonprofit youth organizations and mentored youths struggling with drug and alcohol abuse.
In addition to Mind Over Illusion, Mushaba has authored other books dealing with the human spiritual and mental experience.
