The Powerfist and the Pulling Together of the Family

Of course, the coming together of Afrikan souls for building, mission and purpose of their own ascension remains of reverence to the Creator Supreme. As such, applying the concept and symbol of Harambee to the levels of the Afrikan self: the Afrikan person self, the harmonious and complementary Afrikan male-female union, the Afrikan family, the Afrikan community, the Afrikan nation and the Afrikan world community is surely natural and victorious to do.

The Afrikan Family

It is an age-old conception that the Afrikan family is at the core of the Afrikan nation. Thus, the importance of Afrikan familyhood is central to Afrikan ascension and fullest flourishing. Naturally, the Afrikan family is structured and ordered and is an amplification of the wholesome Afrikan masculine kingly man and the wholesome Afrikan feminine queenly woman coming together to form a functional harmonious and complementary union. It is here that young ones come forth and are cultivated and nurtured, groomed and shaped to fulfil their maximal becoming. It is out of the Afrikan family structure, order and rightful functioning that the basis of nation is laid from initial growth to the empowering of a flourishing nation of which the family is already a part. All of the facets of the family are reflected in the wider context of nationhood. Cultured living with shared values are the natural norm. Skills of spiritual acumen, leadership, governance, economics, education, communication, relating, security and so on are both expressed and developed within the context of familyhood. In this, the natural qualities of kingly Afrikan masculine man are key and the natural qualities of the queenly Afrikan feminine woman are key. Throughout traditional Afrikan societies the enduring truism of, ‘As you raise a child, so shall it be’ is dictum with a norm of living expression.

The following are some suggestions from this author for the establishment and flourishing of the Afrikan family in the contemporary context:

Afrikan Spiritual-cultural restoration and practice - This is where the imperative of shared values, tradition, ethics, morality (amongst much else) emanates from.  

Afrikan-centred life-long learning in restoration of self-knowingness - Continual learning specific to young and adult males and continual learning specific to young and adult females is important.  Shared learning for the family as a whole is also key.

Regular Family Time – Purposeful time set aside void of external vices such as gadgets built for mainstream media consumption and the like can be of exceptional value to family growth, development and flourishing.

Afrikan-centred rites of passage – formalising the growth and development of the Afrikan male and formalising the growth and development of the Afrikan female throughout the life-cycle is important functioning. As well as key transition periods from child to becoming adult, to adulthood, to senior adulthood and so on - earth-day celebrations are useful milestones for annual cycles of development particularly with young ones.  

Being a part of an organ that missions with the thrust of nation-building – this has the exceptional value of linking with other family units for shared oneness in elevation. It also allows for a oneness of qualities to be cultivated within families that can be expressed effectively in the wider context that in turn strengthens each participating family. Building a new family can benefit from the richness of shared fabric, wisdom and guidance.  For souls currently in single-parent households whether patrifocal or matrifocal in make-up can benefit from possibilities of  wider engagement in oneness of transformative thrust. It is important to note that effective family construction is a wholesome endeavour of integrity and is naturally  void of the delusional expectations of fantasy fiction. Also if necessary, genuinely unworkable or self-destructive pseudo-unions formed out of context ought to have the option of dissolution honoured with efficiency so that (where possible) wholesomeness of life can have the chance of being realised for those concerned - especially in the context where grotesque alien impositions of ill have taken hold.      

Organs such as the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation hold missioning for Afrikan nationhood as a part of core fabric.

The gesture of Harambee can certainly then relate to the pulling together the essential of the functioning Afrikan family. At this level of the self the digits of both hands can be pulled into the body whilst making the power fist as a symbol of the immediate family and the extended family in oneness for the greater good of the whole body. Dynamics within this effort can be challenging in the contemporary period of disruption and upright creative restoration can be of great worth in the establishment of effectively and victoriously functioning family units.    

The order of Harambee for family is powerful indeed.

Kimungu Madhabahuni is a time of year to celebrate the Afrikan shrine at home and beyond. Kimungu Madhabahuni takes place during the holiday period associated with the spring equinox. At this time many people are away from the mundane of the various institutions albeit largely as a dictate of presently popular foreign religious doctrine. This therefore, can allow many more Afrikan people the time and space to restore, elevate and be themselves freely in reverence at their own special places.Throughout the annual cycle of the spiritual and cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation observance to observance, Afrikan life is endowed with the essential of living knowingness. For the Afrikan souls, being a part of an organ for mission ascendancy is key. The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation is a spiritually and culturally rooted organ for Afrikan ascension.
