Celebrating Economy of Self

Afrikan people surely ought to hold agreements amongst themselves of rightful order for the fullest flourishing and security of Afrikan life here, there and elsewhere. With Afrikan souls steeped in knowingness of themselves and living their authentic culture (creatively restored or otherwise), upright agreements can be of tremendous value for Afrikan souls to realise optimality regardless of geographical locale.
In general terms, a contemporary mainstream source offers the following detail on the subject:
“An economic agreement is a formal arrangement between two or more countries that outlines how they will conduct economic relations, often involving trade, investment, and other economic activities. These agreements aim to reduce barriers to trade, promote economic growth, and foster closer economic ties between the participating nations”.
In order to bring focus specifically upon the Afrikan experience at the level of shared core oneness that this soul people naturally hold, adaptation of the sourced detail is considered apt. Alteration may yield a result that looks something like the following:
“Afrikan economic agreements are self-determined arrangements of rightful order between Afrikan souls throughout the various levels of the self that outline how they will conduct economic relations and their economic activities in service of Afrikan people’s fullest flourishing and security here, there and elsewhere. Naturally rooted in self-knowingness and authentic cultured living (creatively restored or otherwise), these agreements reflect and strengthen shared core Afrikan oneness, promote Afrikan economic growth and foster closer economic ties between Afrikan people”.
Unfortunately, others that mean the Afrikan ill may set out to establish ‘agreements’ with Afrikan souls that are tantamount to the imposition, perpetuation or reestablishment of enslavement, colonisation or worse. Others of ill may go to extent of attempting to install ‘puppets’, ‘agents’ and souls misguided or coerced into compliance or are readily pliable and use them as the ‘hand-shaking’ party to push into being ‘agreements’ that thwart Afrikan ascension of rightful order. Yet, despite such damage-causing folly, ‘agreements’ of disorder are surely of non-valid substance. According to another mainstream source, economic agreements can be rendered invalid:
“This can stem from various issues, such as lack of capacity of a party to enter the agreement, a violation of public policy, or failure to meet the required formalities for a valid contract”.
Certainly, there are lessons that Afrikan people can learn from this even at the person level of day-to-day living. Surely, Afrikan souls ought to avoid making ‘agreements’ with each other laced with the intent to bring harm to souls rightfully missioning for Afrikan economic ascension. Indeed, Afrikan souls surely ought to avoid making ‘agreements’ with others to invite derailment or harm to Afrikan life. Whether directly or by proxy orchestrated attempts to inflict damage upon Afrikan life, exploit and harmfully misuse Afrikan resources are despicable at best. Perpetrators of deceitful, deceptive acts from wilful damage-causing gossip-mongering and the spreading of falsehoods to misguided leveraging of relations in the attempt to bring down targeted souls of upright order is a welcome invitation to doom. Indeed, attempts to derail Afrikan ascension with intentionally fake posturing is dire strategy. Ill-motivations of petty jealousy, negative egos, false pride and a self-destructive mindset to jockey for ‘status’ and ‘position’ in best service of others of ill surely ought to be avoided.
Afrikan souls surely have a duty and responsibility to themselves to recover self-knowingness and authentic cultured living (creatively restored or otherwise) to allow agreements amongst themselves to be of upright and wholesome substance for Afrikan betterment and prosperity. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
Ujamaa Kiburi Siku is a wonderful part of the spiritual-cultural observance calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation. It takes place in the first week of June marking the time of significant occurrence both on the continent of Afrika and in the diaspora concerning Afrikan economy. Ujamaa Kiburi Siku as with the other observances on the Afrikan cultural calendar is just that – an observance. Therefore, wherever the Afrikan is whether at home, at a community gathering or elsewhere it can be observed.
