Divinity in the Contemporary World

By the grace of the Creator Supreme, the Afrikan spiritual way has been with the Afrikan since time immemorial. Yet, unfortunately in contemporary times there has been the tendency by others that mean the Afrikan ill to cast spirituality aside in order to be more pliable to serve alien interests. This of course, is tantamount to Afrikans being coerced into being a less than their rightful selves state. For the Afrikan spirituality permeates the totality of life's endeavours for its fullest flourishing. In this time, the essential positives of explicit spiritual functioning are known. According to one source:
“The overall impact of religious practice is illustrated dramatically in the three most comprehensive systematic reviews of the field. Some 81 percent of the studies showed the positive benefit of religious practice, 15 percent of the studies showed neutral effects, and only 4 per cent showed harm. Each of these systematic reviews indicated more than 80 percent benefit, and none indicated more than 10 percent harm. Even this 10 percent may be explained by more recent social science insights into ‘healthy religious practice’ and ‘unhealthy religious practice’…There is ample evidence that the strength of the family unit is intertwined with the practice of religion”.
The relationship between religion or rather that which is spiritual is profound. According to one great Afrikan thinker:
“Religion is nothing more than the deification of a people’s culture”
For the Afrikan that which is spiritual has never been an isolated phenomena separate to life’s engagement. Nor has it naturally been the elevation of another people’s culture over their own. It therefore, stands to reason that Afrikan culture is naturally elevated by the Afrikan’s own spiritual way.
With the devastating interruptions and disruptions imposed by others that mean the Afrikan ill in the recent and continuing Maafa, Afrikans have been hurled into a ‘cultural crisis’. The significance of this state was accessed by a progressive Afrikan organ in the 60s thus:
“The key crisis in Black life is the crisis of culture”
In other words, the core of Afrikan life was identified as being in ‘crisis’. Logic then dictates that if the core of Afrikan life is in crisis then all other expressions of life suffer by reflecting the crisis condition.
Wonderfully, the same organ (Us) that identified the deficit set about the creative restoration of Afrikan cultural fabric synthesised in such a way that as to provide Afrikan souls throughout the world ready access to the restoration of their own culture. It is out of this that process of creative restoration that the observance of Kwanzaa emerges. Kwanzaa rightly is a celebration of the Afrikan family, community, nation and race and provides a basic cultural foundation for this. If creative restoration has been established with the yield of Kwanzaa, then naturally the spiritual form of the Afrikan both reflects and energises that same cultural yield.
Hence, Afrikan Spirituality By Way of Kwanzaa posited by this author is considered to be a part of the thrust of necessary restoration of the natural oneness and interconnectedness that culture and spirituality holds for the Afrikan. In this formulation, both are readily accessible and applicable to Afrikan souls throughout the world regardless of geographical location.
The logical equation becomes a simple one of:
Afrikan spiritual and cultural core restoration and living = Maximal global Afrikan ascension
ASBWOK is holds objectives and is objective for Afrikan souls to maximise their own ascension throughout their lives and in living the Afrikan way victory for this primary people of the world is nigh.
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.
