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

It is natural for Afrikan souls to cultivate and develop themselves on a self-determined basis to realise their optimality wherever located. One may describe this as being the function of the core substance of their authentic culture (creatively restored or otherwise). Indeed, at this core level such cultivation is naturally shared amongst these souls regardless of the rich, dynamic and empowering variations in form at the aesthetic levels of cultural expression.

Yet, in a time of interruption and disruption where the Afrikan may be destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, there may be souls (or groups of souls) that are more readily able to restore and participate in authentic cultured living than others. There may then be areas where there are higher concentrations of authentic Afrikan cultured activity and areas that are not so.

Obviously, it is in the best interest of Afrikan souls and their natural thrust for fullest flourishing and security here, there and elsewhere to restore and increase shared core substance of authentic Afrikan culture (creatively restored or otherwise) throughout the Afrikan world community.

A term that may be used to describe such activity is diffusion. According to a contemporary mainstream source diffusion is:

“the spreading of something more widely”.

Another mainstream source, offers a more detailed description as this word applies to culture. According to it cultural diffusion:

“is the spread of cultural items—such as ideas, styles, religions, technologies, languages—between individuals, whether within a single culture or from one culture to another. It is distinct from the diffusion of innovations within a specific culture”.

Yet another, mainstream source offers the following additional detail:

“Cultural diffusion is the spread of cultural trends across locations. Beliefs, practices, and ideas get shared from person to person, and sometimes even around the world through this diffusion, as happens with viral videos. Many cultural practices are spread by a type of cultural diffusion called expansion diffusion”.

In order to bring focus specifically to the Afrikan experience elements from these sources can be brought together and adapted. The result may look something like the following:

“Authentic Afrikan cultural diffusion is the restoration (creatively or otherwise) of shared core authentic cultural substance in Afrikan life here, there and elsewhere. Through appropriate levels of self-determined learning, development, participation and spread diffusion can be realised in an expansive way to facilitate continual Afrikan ascension of rightful order for this whole people regardless of geographical locale”.

Unfortunately, other that mean the Afrikan ill may seek to deny authentic Afrikan cultural diffusion. Amongst the vices of disruption that may be utilised by others bent on destruction is the pushing and peddling of pseudo-identities, pseudo-cultural fabric and the like. This may lead to what could be described as a destructive thrust pseudo-cultural diffusion, i.e. the spreading of ill contaminants amongst Afrikan souls.  

Thankfully, Afrikan souls have made exceptional effort in bringing forth authentic cultural substance at the shared level of oneness via a process of creative restoration. An outstanding example of this is the Nguzo Saba and the observance of Kwanzaa from which it comes. With this, Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere can do themselves a great service with authentic cultural diffusion of such fabric amongst themselves. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.

Kwanzaa is one of the essential cultural observances of life within the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation. The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an Afrikan-centred spiritual and cultural mission for ascendancy that embodies living spiritually and culturally rooted life.
