Sehemu Tisa - Nine Parts of the Divine Afrikan Soul with Funguo Kumi na Moja (11 Keys) – Garvey’s Word in Relation to Kutokufa (Immortality)

The glorious composition of the Creator Supreme’s sacred universe, is a magnanimous array of profound and wonderful parts that necessarily came to be in harmonising order for the glory of illustrious living expression. The divine Afrikan soul is a microcosm of the sacred universe, holds centrality in the sacred universe and is an essential harmonising part of the sacred universe as the greatest of humanity. The Afrikan as a progressive and essential component of the great sacred expanse consists of a profound and sophisticated number of parts that form the maximally functioning and fully flourishing organ of the person. It is these parts cultivated, nurtured and developed that are magnified from each Afrikan person level to realise the organ of maximal ascendancy of the oneness of self as it relates to the whole and magnificent race. As the Creator Supreme gloriously orchestrates the parts of the universe divine energies of orchestration are manifest through the Afrikan as he or she brings the organ of the person self in the context of the organ of a whole people to pinnacle ascendancy. The magnificent Marcus Garvey enlivened this with the mission-compelling words of a supreme visionary, One Creator! One Aim! One Destiny! In this, (amongst much else) the fully flourishing Afrikan self from person to global are progressively detailed.  Hence, the nine parts of the divine Afrikan soul are implicit to Garveyism, Musanity and global Afrikan ascendancy. The Kiswahili word for part is Sehemu. The Kiswahili word for nine is Tisa. The wholesome Afrikan oneness of self lies in the unison of the Sehemu Tisa. The Sehemu Tisa has associated with it eleven key areas of focus in Kiswahili this is referred to as the Funguo Kumi na Moja (Eleven Keys).

From the earliest of times the mighty Afrikan has held the deepest knowledge of the self and nurtured, developed, cultivated excellence in maximal life functioning accordingly. In summary form, the nine parts of the soul and the associated eleven keys are expressed by this author as follows:

Kutokufa (Immortality) - To know of our eternal beingness and that our maximum effort for our own ascendancy will energise the forever living flow. Living our own way, we never cease to be.

The supreme visionary Marcus Garvey articulated the following profound poetic utterance  in relation to Kutokufa of the 11 keys:

“The Everlasting Life

It is everlasting, as we know -
This thing we call Mysterious Life;
It had no beginning some say,
It’s just a constant Moving Flow
It goes from this, then back to that,
And on it moves, in course well planned,
That circles universe and all,
Thus passing through each single lot.

Your life and mine is one long [passage],
In tune with that of other [harmonious] beings,
And everything [harmonious] that breathes the air,
In seasons rough and seasons calm;
One source they say contains the germ
That grows in range of Universe,
And all go back to the one Cause,
Whose life supplies the spreading germ.

By being part of Source Divine
Each life has functions strictly drawn,
For all must bow to endless time,
In form and shape that mark each line;
So [the Afrikan] must yield his flesh to dust;
With plants and [s]eeds and birds and fish -
With rocks and mounts, and lillies too,
As trees break up in fibre crust.

Each one should like to hold his [or her] own,
And be king [or queen] in self alone,
But this IS NOT the way of LIFE,
That claims but one ALMIGHTY CROWN;
Thus disappointed, men [or women] grieve on,
For he [or she] should like his [or her] own [alien imposed] way;
When suns and stars and steady moons
Would [be lied upon] to dance and change to suit [alien plan].

It’s safer then to have [your One Afrikan Creator Supreme],
Whose life is first and ever so,
And all the rest to live in this [Almighty One],
With all the good [in the world] to have,
For [the alien] man would ruin things,
If he controlled the Source of Life;
The day [must] see an endless change
From [the imposed dire status of enslaved Afrikan souls] to restored haughty [Afrikan queens and] kings.

Live on good [Almighty] of timeless worth;
And keep [Afrikans secure] in [their rightful royal] place to live
That when [they] rise to [their proper] height
[They can] perform [their] good on earth,
For [existence] right here is sad today,
As lived  by [the set upon Afrikan] in company,
If the earth goes on [thus], [The world’s] grave [will surely] come,
..Lead us [Afrikans] all in goodness’ way”.
     

Afrikan people must restore themselves to full glory by taking up the tools that serve them best. Far too many Afrikan souls throughout the world are disturbed or irritated (to state the least). Bogus foreign paradigms and theories that serve enemy interests are peddled as standards of a manufactured pseudo life imposed with the intent to perpetuate exploitation or destruction of the Afrikan soul.  Garveyism, Musanity and Global Afrikan ascendancy must surely be enlivened, more so now than ever. The Sehemu Tisa and its Funguo Kumi na Moja are surely tools for Afrikan glory.

The observance of Musa Msimu takes place during the month of so-called August and is a wonderful time to celebrate the mighty example of Marcus Garvey and the Movement that he created led in order for future generations of Afrikans to have their guide for complete freedom and nationhood. Musa Msimu is a part of the Afrikan Cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).
