Ogun the Heru is Hero

The Afrikan truism of oneness in spiritual and cultural substance of life has been manifest in the sacred universe since the earliest of times. Forthright energies of supreme ethereal power have been personified and elevated to the status of deity. In spirit, deities provide pinnacle example, maximal empowerment through unique and profound ethereal inheritance for generations into eternity. For each generation of Afrikan souls deities are invoked and expressed in the lives of the first and spirit ones on Creation in order for them to achieve their maximal potential and maximum capability. In the most ancient of times from the Nile Valley, the Afrikan deities of Ausar, Auset and Heru were made manifest. Each carrying their Afrikan accessible qualities and characteristics of power. Ausar the progressive male energy force - a pioneering nation-builder ruler and agricultural genius. Auset the progressive female energy force – nurturer, sustainer, protector and restorer of life. Heru the child, conceived from the interconnection of divine male energies of Ausar and the divine female energies of Auset. Heru emerges with combined qualities of Ausar and Auset and the powerful characteristic of an unconquerable warrior in service of all that is just and right. He is uncompromising and unrelenting to bring about victory for righteousness. Wrongdoings are avenged and Heru is the hero of Afrikan souls.  Throughout traditional Afrikan life Heru is remembered and symbolised for empowerment through a vast array of expressions. One such expression is the Her-em-akhet (the grand monument symbolising transformative Afrikan ascendancy misnomered by foreigners as the sphinx). Her-em-akhet means Heru on the Horizon.  

In the western region of the great continent the same unconquerable warrior spirit for all that is just and right became known as Ogun. With Ogun victory is inevitable where any horror of injustice or unrighteousness has reared its ugly head against Afrikan people. Ogun the Heru is hero.

This was made very clear to the enemies of Afrikan people who had abominably dared to impose the horror of chattel enslavement upon Afrikan souls. On the island of Haiti in the famous ceremony that took place to bring freedom to Afrikan people led by the Afrikan spiritual priest Bookman Dutty - Ogun is remembered - Ogun is called. Afrikan people on that island become Ogun in oneness. Jean Jacque Dessalines is Ogun as victory is brought to uncompromising fruition. Clear, direct and forthright in conviction and dedication to ensure righteous order is established for Afrikan souls. Defeating all foreign enemies Haiti is brought to independence in the year 1804 (so-called).

In more contemporary times Ogun has become manifest in service of Afrikan souls throughout the world. Forthright, righteous, uncompromising, direct, clear and unconquerable Omowale Malcolm X is Ogun. The spirit of Afrikan liberty can never be vanquished and in remembrance of Omowale Malcolm X victory for Afrikan people is inevitable. In the remembrance of Omowale is the invocation of the spiritual power of Ogun.

Foreign contemporary religious doctrines of whatever sort must surely be cast aside in the knowing that they are impositions to castrate the maximal flourishing of Afrikan people. The colours of the deity Ogun are Red and Black. During the Omowale Malcolm X Kukumbuko (Remembrance) observance that is forthcoming Afrikan garments reflecting these colours adorn the person of souls engaged in this special spiritual and cultural time of ascendancy. These colours are also the two of the colours from the Bendera Ya Taifa (Flag of the Nation) – Red, Black and Green established by the Supreme visionary Marcus Garvey. The two colours of the flag highlighted at this time highlight the red of Afrikan divine blood and the black of the divine melanated self. Here, the remembrance of the sacred blood that has been shed for uplift and ascendancy of sacred Afrikan self is made clear. This is Kukumbuko. Spirit cannot die! The Afrikan is spirit!

Omowale Malcolm X Kukumbuko is a restorative spiritual and cultural observance providing a vehicle for Afrikan people to live their own way of life in the now and in time to come. Omowale Malcolm X Kukumbuko is a part of the cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN). The 21st February 1965 (so-called) is the date of the martyrdom of this great hero and the URAN gathering for Kukumbuko takes place on Sunday 21st February (or nearest Sunday) on an annual basis.

A wonderful way to make the Afrikan remembrance continuum fabric of life is to become 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.
