Celebrating the Shrine of Self and Shrine Space

Afrikan souls, as the primary people of the world, are beyond doubt of natural and superlative excellence. From the beginning this powerful people have elevated themselves to the grand heights of pinnacle civilisation, unmatched in magnificence and longevity. Throughout their natural norm of self-determined living this people have pulled together their energies to build their own institutions of life as fundamental to lifting themselves to the greatest of heights. Deeply meaningful symbols of powerfulness in reverence of the Creator Supreme, rightful living and order were necessarily developed by this people to punctuate and reinforce their continual ascension in life. One such symbol came to the fore with the gesture of holding what has become recognised today as the power fist. Out of the interruptions and disruptions of recent centuries of the Maafa, Afrikan souls have rightfully and vitally sought to restore their own cultural fabric. As such, the power fist has been (amongst other things) restored in the gesture of Harambee (To pull together). By extending the arm upwardly with the digits of the hand separated and then pulling the arm down towards the body whilst bringing the digits of the hand together into a clenched fist represents the powerfulness of Afrikan souls coming together. This gesture of Harambee emerging in contemporary times as a grand feature of the wonderful observance of Kwanzaa is a symbol of empowerment for the Afrikan world.
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 World Community
Afrikan souls, the primary and spirit people of creation are both of the Creator Supreme and naturally hold living knowingness of the Creator Supreme. This is true whether the Afrikan is on the great continent of Afrika, in the Americas, in the Islands, in Europe or elsewhere in the world. This is true whatever local traditions may apply. This is true whatever Afrikan language or imposed alien language is spoken. This is true whether the Afrikan is young or more senior in years. This is true whatever local citizenship the Afrikan may hold. This is true whatever societal station the Afrikan holds. This is true whether the Afrikan is considered highly educated or not. This is true whether the Afrikan is considered to be financially well endowed or not. This is true from generation-to-generation into eternity. This is true at the foundation of knowingness of the global Afrikan self.
The following are some suggestions from this author for the establishment and flourishing of the Afrikan world community in the contemporary context:
To have self-determined Afrikan education is key in bringing forth knowingness of the global Afrikan world populous and the rooted oneness of beingness that is shared between this whole people of the same continuum.
Energise throughout all the levels of the self, the living philosophy of One Creator, One Aim and One Destiny as victorious substance in the imperative mission for global Afrikan ascension. This of course, was brilliantly and pioneeringly expressed in the upper part of the so-called 20th century with the supreme visionary Marcus Garvey with (amongst much else) his International Convention for the [Afrikan] People of the World.
Instill the notion (throughout the levels of the self) that a functional, upright and ascending Afrikan world community of oneness is the most amplified level of honour to be given onto the Creator Supreme. Thus, for the Afrikan to pragmatically build at this level of the self surely then brings those most magnificent forms of superlative and amplified excellence. Here, complete restoration of rightful order throughout the world is surely inevitable with any global system of alien inadequacy rendered impotent.
Make use of cultural observances such as the wonderful observance of Kwanzaa and its value system throughout the Afrikan world whatever local traditional practices may or may not be engaged in. On vital cultural plane this is a global cultural ‘lived language’ of oneness that does not negate the necessary powerfulness and participation in localised Afrikan traditions. Likewise, this is true of ASBWOK (Afrikan Spirituality By Way of Kwanzaa) which harmonises with Afrikan global culture of Kwanzaa as a formulation for spiritual ascension that does not negate the necessary powerfulness and participation in localised Afrikan traditions. Both Kwanzaa and ASBWOK can be participated in whether the Afrikan is engaged in existing localised tradition or not. Of course, the expressed linguistic form of Afrikan oneness with the use of Kiswahili is part of this thrust.
Be a part of an organ such as the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation that missions in the interest of global Afrikan ascension.
The gesture of Harambee can certainly then relate to the pulling together of the Afrikan world community. The digits on the hand can represent Afrikans throughout the various continents of the world energised by the Ultimate Divine that are then pulled together to form a symbol superlative powerfulness throughout the globe and the global security for Afrikan life that is naturally brought to the fore.
The order of Harambee for Afrikan world community 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.
The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an Afrikan-centred spiritual and cultural mission for ascendancy that embodies living spiritually and culturally rooted life.
