Land, Resource of Self and Other Natural Resources: What of Spiritual Economy?

Afrikan people are pirit people. As such, they have always naturally utilised their spiritual core to determine physical realities. For this primary people, their superlative civilisations have materialised through the channelling their spirit. Of course, the arena of Afrikan economic functioning is naturally empowered by the spirit of its people, in service of their highly civilised norm.

According to a mainstream source, the following detail is offered in relation to the subject of spiritual economy:

“Just as material economics are based upon the material conceptions of life, Spiritual Economics is based upon spiritual conceptions of life. One of the wonderful qualities of spiritual activities is that there can be no material impediment to them, therefore, they are always available. As such in Spiritual Economics the conception of abundance replaces the concept of scarcity so there will never be problems of lack and scarcity which are so prevalent in the world today”.

Whilst this detail may provide some useful indicators in relation to Afrikan life, the Afrikan experience has its unique qualities that are distinct from other groups. Therefore, one may describe Afrikan spiritual economy in the following way:

“For the Afrikan, material reality is an outward representation of the spiritual. Thus, Afrikan spiritual economics of self is naturally core functioning to the realisation of material Afrikan economic functioning. Though there are limits inherent within the physical, spiritual abundance is reflected in the abundance of natural Afrikan resources. Indeed, the formulation of engagement: (Afrikan land + Resource of Self and Other Natural Resources = Functional Afrikan Economy), is naturally rooted in spiritual conception and cultural fabric. Thus, both Afrikan spiritual abundance and Afrikan natural resource abundance is to be secured and channelled for the ascension and optimal flourishing of Afrikan life. In this, there is naturally no material self-economy void of spiritual self-economy conception for Afrikan souls. In addition, Afrikan souls on a self-determined basis can establish their own spiritual places of focus for pilgrimage and practice within their own realms – whether here, there or elsewhere – to benefit Afrikan life spiritually, economically and otherwise”.  

Afrikan souls have been blessed with natural abundance both in the physical and in the spiritual. Despite the destructive attempts of others that mean the Afrikan ill to sever the Afrikan from their naturalness of wealth and hijack it for themselves, it is only Afrikan souls that can secure their spiritually-culturally rooted economic core.

Certainly, Afrikan people must know themselves to realise their fullest flourishing. Thus, self-determined efforts to restore self-knowledge from whatever locale, station, level or status is vital. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance whether of the then, in the now, or throughout the tomorrows yet to come.
