Divinity in the Contemporary World

From the earliest of times Afrikan souls, have necessarily had their own spiritual focal spaces from the home to wider communal spaces to those that represent the nation. Having that spiritual focal space within the home is both wonderful and necessary. Part of the spiritual formulation of Universal Royal Afrikan Spirituality is the highly accessible spirit framework of ASBWOK (Afrikan Spirituality By Way of Kwanzaa). With ASBWOK some general basics can be applied in the construction of the Afrikan shrine.

Relating to the common themes of ASBWOK, is one of the ways in which the Afrikan shrine can reflect global connection, function and mission of oneness with its adherents. Here, symbols that represent the themes can be made present on the shrine in the home or a wider communal shrine. The general themes are:

1)    Living knowingness of the Creator Supreme

2)    Living knowingness of the Great Ancestors

3)    Living knowingness of the self

4)    Application of the shrine

5)    Purposeful ingathering

The first theme of Living knowingness of the Creator Supreme is just that, a living honour and exaltation of the Ultimate Divine as the source of divinity that pervades righteous Afrikan life. In the context of a special place of commune, of spiritual focus the Creator Supreme can be symbolised in a variety of different ways. For example, in west Afrika the symbol of Nyame Nti meaning, ‘by the grace of the Creator Supreme’ could be made present in pictorial form or other medium such as sculpting. Likewise, there is also the ancient Nile Valley symbol of Ra that can be made present in a similar way. These are just a couple of examples amongst the wide-ranging symbology representing the thrust of the Creator Supreme that can be utilised from Afrikan tradition. The Afrikan knowingness of the Creator Supreme from region to region and language group to language group has been expressed this throughout the ages.   Placing a symbol of the Creator Supreme upon the Afrikan shrine from Afrikan expression is a powerful way to punctuate the living knowingness of the Ultimate Divine that Afrikan souls all around the world share.  

The symbol is never a substitute for living life but a spiritually energising reminder, even prompt, of the substance of life that is lived. It can be part of the spiritual focal space that empowers Afrikan life’s building, journeying and mission of ascension. It energises progressive life engagement. As the Afrikan soul engages with spiritual focus at the Afrikan shrine the all-powerful, almighty and pinnacle divine force of the sacred universe holds central and eminent importance. As does the Ultimate Divine hold eminent and central importance throughout Afrikan life.

The themes of ASBWOK can allow the Afrikan shrine to carry all-year-round consistencies of elevation and oneness for a whole people. ASBWOK is a both a vehicle for the Afrikan beginning his or her spiritual journey and well as the Afrikan who may be the more seasoned practitioner.

Kimungu Madhabahuni is a time of year to celebrate the Afrikan shrine at home and beyond. Kimungu Madhabahuni takes place during the holiday period associated with the spring equinox. At this time many people are away from the mundane of the various institutions albeit largely as a dictate of presently popular foreign religious doctrine. This therefore, can allow many more Afrikan people the time and space to restore, elevate and be themselves freely in reverence at their own special places.Throughout the annual cycle of the spiritual and cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation observance to observance, Afrikan life is endowed with the essential of living knowingness. For the Afrikan souls, being a part of an organ for mission ascendancy is key. The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation is a spiritually and culturally rooted organ for Afrikan ascension.

The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an Afrikan-centred spiritual and cultural mission for ascendancy that embodies living spiritually and culturally rooted life.
