A Great Responsibility

The word great can give a descriptive inkling of the magnificent journey of the wonderful spirit people of Creation. This people have the longest and most richly filled continuum of any and thus each generation is able to draw from a unique and exceptional strength exuding brilliancy throughout the panorama of life from generation to generation. A superb spirit articulation of the Afrikan is to call on the power of their forebears who waked the road of ascendancy before, empowering each generation with the experience of knowing to lift themselves in the present and in time to come – forever upward. Ancestorship in the grand Afrikan continuum is powerful quality. For Afrikan souls to know the greatness from which they have come, is to know the greatness they hold in the now and to know the great ones that they will forever be. The Great Ancestors of the Afrikan are the lineage to the Creator Supreme and thus divine energy flows in this marvellous spirit soul. A powerful spiritual and cultural symbol of the mighty parent people is the candle holder firmly placed on the mat that symbolises the Afrikan’s wisdom tradition. The Kiswahili word for candle holder is Kinara.
With the genocidal impact of the Maafa anti-Afrikan forces attempted to forcibly strip any notion of their primacy in humanity’s unfolding. The wicked enslaver, coloniser, barbarian sought to sever the Afrikan continuum of Great Ancestorship and bogusly, deceptively position himself as the so-called master of all. This anti-nature, anti-Afrikan synthentically manufactured and barbarously deployed stratagem of falsehood persists as foreign forces attempt to use every available vehicle in the despicable, desperate and vain attempt to continually subjugate and murder Afrikan souls.
As ever-greater numbers of Afrikans continue the imperative journey towards the deepest knowing of themselves, real and natural Afrikan life is given its proper righteous expression. The great continuum of the proud, mighty parent people and their Great Ancestorship flourishes in abundance. Each generation charged with the dynamic and profound responsibility of being Great. Each generation generating Great Ancestors in the mission of Afrikan ascendancy for generations to come. If every Afrikan soul in the first instance were to ask of themselves, ‘How do I take up my natural responsibility to become a Great Ancestor?’ and in the next instance imperatively and progressively make real the answer throughout the unfolding of his or her life – then glorious and flourishing Afrikan liberty and nationhood is surely secured. The Kinara is a special spiritual and cultural symbol that represents a great responsibility to hold the candles of wholesome progressive life.
A wonderful way to take hold of the natural responsibility of self betterment is for the Afrikan to organise him or herself in an organ working for Afrikan ascendancy. The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an Afrikan-centred spiritual and cultural mission for ascendancy that embodies living spiritually and culturally rooted life.
