Upright Empowerment of an Economy of Self: What of Economic Reliability?

Celebrating Economy of Self

To have constructed the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist, Afrikan souls necessarily had to exercise a level of reliability amongst themselves in order to realise the result. Indeed, Afrikan souls were able to rely upon their economy of self and its functioning to service their optimal thriving of rightful order.  

A contemporary mainstream source offers the following detail:

“In essence, economic reliability is about the degree to which an economic entity can be trusted to perform as expected and maintain a stable, predictable, and resilient state over time”.

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:

“Afrikan economic reliability is about the degree to which Afrikan self-economy and self-determined economic entities and functioning can be trusted amongst Afrikan souls to service fullest Afrikan flourishing and security here, there and elsewhere. In this, the qualities of stability, consistency and resilience over time can be considered to be of key significance”.

Unfortunately, others that mean the Afrikan ill may take it upon themselves to destabilise and upset consistency within Afrikan life to negate Afrikan economic reliability. Whether in the form of outright open attack, via the pushing and peddling of anti-Afrikan propaganda or other means of ill, attempts to bring harm to Afrikan thriving can have long lasting negative implications that empower theft, corruption and other disorders if they are allowed to take hold. Twistedly, consistency of acute disorder and predictable dire imposition can span generations.

Certainly, there lessons that the Afrikan can learn from this, even at the person level of day-to-day living. Afrikan souls surely ought not succumb to becoming ill-consumed to continually act in wilfully destructive ways intended to bring harm to souls of rightful Afrikan ascension. Afrikans ought not be afflicted with the ill of being ‘reliable’ in deceitful, deceptive gossip-mongering, the spreading of falsehoods and other wrongdoings to derail or destroy souls uprightly missioning for Afrikan economic thriving. In actuality, this can be seen as promotion of the oppositional categories of unreliability, inconsistency, instability and so on (at best) upon Afrikan life by proxy.  

Afrikan souls surely have a duty and responsibility to themselves to reclaim knowingness of themselves and their authentic cultured living (creatively restored or otherwise) from which their self-empowering qualities of reliability, consistency, resilience and so on are naturally energised. In exercising such qualities amongst themselves in service of their ascension over time Afrikan souls can realise 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.
