Celebrating Economy of Self

For Afrikan souls to have established the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist, they had to determine levels of organisation commensurate with the result. Thus, amongst the variety of Afrikan life engagements, organisation within the sphere of their economic functioning was necessarily brought to the fore.
According to a contemporary mainstream source:
“An economic organisation refers to the way societies or groups arrange their economic activities, including production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. It encompasses the structures, institutions, and systems that govern how resources are allocated and wealth is generated and shared. This can range from informal systems within families or communities to formal structures like businesses, governments, and international organisations”.
In order to bring focus specifically to 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:
“An Afrikan economic organisation refers to the self-determined way Afrikan society or groupings arrange their economic activities in service of Afrikan people’s fullest flourishing and security here, there and elsewhere. This may include facilities such as Afrikan production, distribution as well as the utilisation of their goods and services. It encompasses the structures, establishments and systems determined by Afrikan souls that govern how their resources are allocated and their wealth optimality is realised throughout the various levels of the Afrikan self for continual Afrikan betterment and prosperity. Naturally rooted in authentic cultured living (creatively restored or otherwise), both informal or formal systems of upright economic functioning can be determined by Afrikan souls for their ascension regardless of geographical locale”.
Unfortunately, others that mean the Afrikan ill may seek to destroy the self-determined economic organising Afrikan people naturally carry out amongst themselves. This may take the form of open hostile attack or perhaps more subtle means of discouraging Afrikan souls from their necessary and rightful economic engagements. If allowed to prevail and take hold in Afrikan life such ill-efforts may lead susceptible Afrikan souls to avoiding the establishment, operation and rewards of economically organising for themselves.
According to another mainstream source:
“In organisational settings, consistent avoidance can undermine teamwork and create a culture where issues are swept under the rug instead of addressed openly”.
If others that mean the Afrikan ill can get the Afrikan to do their bidding by proxy and create an existence where persistent and wilfully destructive wrongdoings are ‘swept under the rug’ then doom is surely invited.
Certainly, there are lessons that Afrikan souls can learn from this even at person level of day-to-day living. In this, Afrikan souls surely ought not to avoid their upright economic organising for their ascension. Instead, avoidance ought to be utilised to abandon wilfully destructive wrongdoings set to bring harm to souls rightfully missioning to realise Afrikan economic organisation and ascension. Indeed, perpetrating acts of wilful destruction, deceitfully and deceptively ‘sweeping them under the rug’ only to commit further acts of harm is despicable at best. Whether in the form of malicious gossip-mongering, the spreading of falsehoods or otherwise.
Surely, Afrikan souls have a duty and responsibility to themselves to realise their organisational optimality here, there and elsewhere. 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.
