Shared Culture of Oneness- Here, There and Elsewhere: What of Authentic Cultural Intensity?

Naturally, Afrikan souls throughout the ages have engaged with their authentic culture (culturally restored or otherwise) at a height of intensity that enabled them to establish the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist. As their culture had to be of their own determination and their own experience to empower their maximal potential and maximal capability – undoubtedly making it authentic – so too, their engagement of relevant intensity shared authenticity.

Unfortunately, in a state of interruption and disruption where Afrikan souls may be destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, those same others may seek to render authentic cultural engagement on the part of the Afrikan null. If such dire intentions were to take hold, then the natural level of cultural intensity may become disastrously below par or worse. Additionally, intensity of engagement may become exclusively apportioned to outwardly expressed aesthetics of cultural expression only. Erroneously void of engagement intensity at the core of authentic cultural substance (creatively restored or otherwise), the tendencies to harmfully fragment Afrikan life by reason of artful expression may amplify. Of course, if the destructive ills of pseudo-identities, pseudo-cultural fabric are injected into the mix, a downward thrust to doom can be further fuelled.

Yet, despite the challenges it is for Afrikan souls themselves to realise the appropriate core positioning of their authentic cultural substance and apply the necessary levels of authentic intensity of engagement to realise their fullest flourishing and security.

According to contemporary mainstream source, the following detail is relevant:

“Cultural intensity refers to how deeply culture is embedded in one's identity”.

Another mainstream source suggests that:

“Cultural intensity refers to the degree of acceptance of various norms and values”.

And that cultural intensity:

“is the attribute of culture that reflects the depth of the culture that members have”.

To bring focus specifically upon the Afrikan experience at the shared level of oneness, adaptation of the sourced details is considered apt. The results of alteration may look something like the following:

“Afrikan authentic cultural intensity refers to how deeply authentic Afrikan culture (creatively restored or otherwise) is embedded within shared Afrikan identity of oneness here, there and elsewhere. It also refers to the degree of both acceptance of and engagement in self-determined norms and values at the level of shared oneness throughout the Afrikan world community in service of Afrikan fullest flourishing and security”.

Thankfully, Afrikan souls are far from being void of authentic cultural fabric at the level of shared oneness. This primary people of creation have creatively restored authentic cultural substance with its values and associated practice that is readily accessible to Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere. The outstanding example of the Nguzo Saba and observance of Kwanzaa from which it comes provides pragmatic empowerment for authentic Afrikan cultural intensity to be realised. In this, Afrikan souls regardless of geographical locale, can again lift themselves to optimality as a whole. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.

Kwanzaa is one of the essential cultural observances of life within the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation.
