Let Omowale Ogun Live – Live the Afrikan Way

Deities are special in Afrikan life and represent aspects of the Creator that can lift the Afrikan soul as personified guides towards ever-greater ascendancy energising particular skills or acumen on the earthly plane. Whether the skill is architectural design, wisdom utterance, agricultural science the Afrikan has great deities that can guide, shape and energise the Afrikan toward the best of their spirit filled genius flow. Multiple aspects of the Creator Supreme are emphasised throughout the mainstay of Afrikan life and the divine phenomena of true, just, righteous order are certainly essential. It is also true that Afrikan life and the Afrikan way within which these fundamental virtues are lived and expressed must be safeguarded. In this, the deities of just warfare, unconquerable power are essential to Afrikan life. In times, of enemy attack the personified aspect of the Creator Supreme that can best energise the liberty of the righteous Afrikan soul is brought to the fore. In this contemporary period of time the great liberator Omowale Malcolm X carries the spirit of Ogun. Omowale Malcolm X is an Ogun. Omowale Ogun lives.  

Ogun is the deity that represents just warfare and ancient matter (iron). This deity carries the attributes of courage, fortitude, power, is a clarity bringer, uncompromising and direct and (amongst much else) is unconquerable. This is a west Afrikan expression of that which is embodied by the ancient Nile Valley deity Heru in the grand oneness of Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric.

During this contemporaneous period of genocidal interruption – the Maafa, Afrikans in the diaspora gathered in Haiti and spiritually galvanised themselves to bring an end to chattel enslavement. For survival purposes against the looming threats of death or torture by the savage hands of the enslaver, Afrikans would disguise their own deities with the mask of sainthood from imposed contemporary religious doctrine. However, the time came for the masks for foreign religiousness to be discarded and a ceremony was organised and officiated by the warrior spiritualist Bookman Dutty to lift the Afrikan soul to victory. At this ceremony, the Haitian revolution was energised by the unconquerable spirit of Ogun, thus victory was inevitable. The righteous and magnificent spirit of Ogun blessed the self-determined Afrikan multitudes. Wonderfully, Ogun emanated in a powerful way through the great person of Emperor Jean Jacque Dessalines who led the victorious Afrikans on that island to independence in the year 1804 (so-called).

More recently, Omowale Malcolm X embodies and expresses the spirit of Ogun as the fight for Afrikan liberty and nationhood throughout the world continues. In calling on Omowale Malcolm X, the Afrikan calls on Ogun. In calling on Omowale Malcolm X, the Afrikan calls Heru. All in the grand continuum of the oneness of Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. Thus, every Afrikan soul around the world can be empowered for unconquerable victory as then, in the now and into the eternal tomorrow.

Surely the time has come to lift the masks of confusion of foreign religious doctrines as imposition persists. Whether of further eastern of western origin foreign agendas cannot continue to weave the web of destruction upon Afrikan lives. Restoration of the Afrikan divine way of righteousness must prevail. The spiritual and cultural ascending life of the Afrikan is Afrikan, is for the Afrikan on the continent, is for the Afrikan in the diaspora, is best for the Afrikan, is surely imperative. The Afrikan way casts aside the poison chalice of foreign imposition (religious or otherwise) and lifts the Afrikan soul to maximum flourishing.  

As the powerful life and example of this great heru (hero) is celebrated, recognition and reaffirmation that Ogun is with the Afrikan soul is confirmed. In celebrating the powerful, mighty unconquerable Omowale Malcolm X the spiritual and cultural reaffirmation of Omowale Ogun is made real. This is the time for global Afrikan victory. This is the time for Omowale Ogun. Let Omowale Ogun live – live the Afrikan way.

Within the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN), the OMX ritual performed during the Omowale Malcolm X Siku observance is a part of ceremony to energise the spirit thrust for Afrikan liberty and victory. Living Afrikan spiritual and cultural practice is restored as participants (from the young to the more senior) as the Afrikan wisdom continuum becomes fabric of life.

As with the Omowale Malcolm X Kukumbuko observance, the red and black colours of Ogun abound and learning for empowerment is staple. The wonderful phenomena of Afrikan upliftment is asserted at the deeply rooted spiritual and cultural levels to progressively inform and animate the outward expressions of life. Omowale Malcolm X Siku is another wonderful time of year on the Afrikan cultural calendar. Truly a blessing of magnificence.

Omowale Malcolm X Siku is an observance celebrating the life and continual living legacy of this great hero in order that Afrikan people can lift themselves by excellent example. It is a spiritual and cultural observance providing a vehicle for Afrikan people to ritualise, learn and live for liberty and nationhood. Omowale Malcolm X Siku is a part of the cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN). The19th May 1925 (so-called) is the date of this great hero being born in the physical sense. URAN gathering for Omowale Malcolm X Siku takes place on Sunday 19th May (or nearest Sunday) on an annual basis.

A wonderful way to celebrate Omowale Malcolm X is in being a part of an organ 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.
