Pragmatic Spirituality in Building Economy (Part 1) – Deities

Throughout the ages aspects of the Creator Supreme have been personified in spiritual conception with deities. Unlike how things may work for foreign people, the conception of deities bring spirit energy and focus to the particular specialisms necessary for optimal flourishing of Afrikan nation. It is age-old natural truism that spiritual engagement is empowerment for the fullest physical engagement in life. Therefore, for whatever specialisms that exist in life there is a relevant aspect of the Creator Supreme that directly empowers that particular avenue of engagement. For example, the scribe of ancient Afrika may be spiritually empowered by Djehuti. Or, the agricultural scientist may be spiritually empowered by Ausar. Or the law proponent may be spiritually empowered by Maat. Spirituality for the Afrikan is naturally never separate or distinct from life’s physical expression. Rather, it is core to energising life’s living knowingness and optimal expression in thrust of excellence.

Naturally pragmatic spiritual engagement spans the plethora of skills and the powerful genius flow throughout the various spheres of progressive Afrikan living. Far from being a ‘weakness’ as posited by outsiders driven by motives of invasion, conquest, domination and destruction, spiritual pragmatism is at the core of the greatest and most long-lived civilisations that have ever graced the earth. There is an important lesson in which eternal strength is to be gained given the extensive Afrikan experience. That lesson is, whatever the specialism Afrikan souls engage in the building of self-determined nationhood, outside threats are ever-present. Therefore, each deity must be coupled with the integrity-filled and unconquerable deities of safeguarding victory such as Ogun and Heru with clear identification of hostile alien source.  

The arena of Afrikan self-determined economic excellence is vital functioning for Afrikan nationhood. As such, there are aspects of the Creator Supreme that are relevant sources of spiritual empowerment in this fundamental area. For instance, Olokun is a powerful deity of deep-water flow and wealth (and) Osun is a powerful deity of beauty and wealth. When raw spirit abundance of the Afrikan is directed with focus via empowerment through the relevant deities, the genius flow and self-determined ascension of excellence in outward life expression surely follows.

Of course, with the destructive impositions of others that mean the Afrikan ill during the Maafa of recent times, there has been much hostile alien anti-Afrikan attack upon Afrikan self-determined economic empowerment. Some highlight this as ‘economic warfare’. Hence, it is vital that Afrikan souls restore their own spiritual and cultural fabric of life to bring about their best possible economic genius flow, acumen and ascension. However, it is vital that the powerful wealth building energies of the Creator Supreme represented by Olukun and Osun are accompanied with the likes of Ogun or Heru to vanquish any attempts at an alien hostile imposition.

As illuded to previously, the accompaniment of the likes of Ogun or Heru is not exclusive to spiritual economic empowerment but spiritual empowerment throughout the various spheres of life specialisms. This is key lesson from the interruptions throughout Afrikan history. It would be nonsensical for Afrikan souls to throw away their own spiritual way that yields their best and greatest life expressions. However, any ‘open’ vulnerability to alien onslaught must be addressed within the fabric or framework of the Afrikan spiritual way with intrinsic victorious and eternal safeguarding.

Ujamaa Kiburi Siku is a wonderful part of the spiritual-cultural observance calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation. It takes place in the first week of June marking the time of significant occurrence both on the continent of Afrika and in the diaspora concerning Afrikan economy. Ujamaa Kiburi Siku as with the other observances on the Afrikan cultural calendar is just that – an observance. Therefore, wherever the Afrikan is whether at home, at a community gathering or elsewhere it can be observed.
