Celebrating the Magnificent Harvest of All-Year-Round Ascension

For Afrikan souls to embrace their own culture is a matter of fundamental normality in their lives. This pioneering people of culture have naturally cultivated themselves throughout the ages to realise their maximal potential and maximal capabilities. So much so, that they established the world’s greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist. In this sense, authenticity in the embracement of their culture  – whether creatively restored or otherwise – is reflected in longevity and the outcome.

Of course, and unfortunately, in a state of interruption and disruption where Afrikan souls may be destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, soul people’s natural norm of embracement of their own culture can be met with intentionally concocted and imposed obstacles. From miseducation to overt and covert forms of anti-Afrikan propaganda the ill-vices deployed to derail the natural course of cultural embracement amongst Afrikan souls can be many. For some souls, in such conditions to even conceive of having cultural substance to embrace may become problematic.

Still, despite the challenges it is only Afrikan souls themselves that can bring to the fore their authentic cultural substance (creatively restored or otherwise) and allow their natural embrace of it to flourish. This can be especially significant at the level of shared oneness where ready access by the Afrikan here, there and elsewhere of their cultural fabric is crucial.

According to a contemporary mainstream source, the importance of cultural embracement is detailed in the following way:

“By embracing our culture, we can preserve and celebrate our traditions and values, ensuring that they continue to be passed down to future generations. It is a way of preserving our cultural heritage and ensuring that our identity and legacy are not lost”.

Another mainstream source offers the following guidance as to how the embrace of one’s culture might be realised:

“Take the time to research and understand your culture's history, traditions, customs, and values”.

“Participate in cultural celebrations and festivals that are important to your heritage”.

This source, also suggests to:

“Embrace your culture with pride and confidence. Recognise the richness and diversity it brings to your life and the world. Celebrate and honour it in a way that feels authentic to you”.

Beyond mere feelings, cultural authenticity for the Afrikan lies in the fact that their way of life is of their experience and serves their continual ascension, fullest flourishing and security. As such, Afrikan souls ought not succumb to the dire tendency to turn away from their self-determined fabric that allows their optimality to be realised:

“While embracing one's cultural identity is considered enriching and empowering, there may be instances where individuals choose to refrain from fully doing so. Factors such as societal pressure, a desire to assimilate, or personal experiences that have led to a disconnect from one's cultural roots could influence this decision”.

Thankfully, Afrikan souls through their self-determined pioneering effort have brought authentic Afrikan culture into realisation for ready access by Afrikan souls whether located here, there or elsewhere. Through their process of creative restoration at the shared level of oneness Afrikan people have the exceptional substance of the Nguzo Saba and the observance of Kwanzaa from which it comes to embrace with pride and authenticity. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.

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