What if Everything Pointed to Finance-Only Void of Self-Economy?

Celebrating the Empowerment of Self-Economy

Within their norm of fullest
flourishing and optimal civilisation, the primary and spirit people of creation
naturally engage in necessary financial matters to service themselves and their
society. Within this context, focus directed toward the financial arena remains
crucially rooted as fullest flourishing for this soul people means that their
high culture abounds. The vital core stuff of flourishing and ascension
represented by their culture naturally permeates the panorama of life’s
activities of which the financial aspect is an important part. Yet, for this primary
people in their natural state of optimality their self-economy thrives as the foundational
basis for any outward engagement in financial acumen. Afrikan economy is
naturally embedded within this soul people’s culture and financial matters are
then naturally expressed or engaged-in outwardly from the core that allows meaningful
financial function to exist in the first place.
According to one definition finance means:
“Finance is a term for matters regarding the management, creation, and study of money and investments”.
So then, what of the Maafa period of interruption and disruption of recent centuries? Even a cursory examination of this period reveals the destructive ways in which Afrikan souls have been set upon. There has been much damage caused to their norm of highly cultured living with its embedded economy and outward financial expressions. Dislocated from their natural core of cultured economic ascension, multitudes of Afrikan souls have been thrust into the un-rootedness of existing exclusively in the tertiary realms of finance. Void of self-economy such financial engagement has substantial meaning and benefit to the ‘economy’ from which those financial activities are an expression of.
If there is concentrated focus aimed towards financial matters (as necessary as much of them presently are) in the contemporary period of disruption, this surely does not carry the same meaning for the Afrikan as being in the natural state of self-determined optimal flourishing. Here, the Afrikan can be lodged in the exclusive realms of empowerment-of-other-economies whilst being encouraged to neglect or abandon restoration, recovery or even the existence of their cultured self-economy norm. With such a deficit, financial assignments can have vastly lopsided outcomes fuelling less-than optimality for the Afrikan at best.
Yet, it is only Afrikan souls themselves that can realise their natural rightful order of cultured self-economy with its upright financial expressions. Surely, this primary people of creation can enact their duty and responsibility to themselves and bring about their natural norm of pinnacle civilisation with flourishing self-economy and financial expression. Here, self-knowingness is key. Here, cultural restoration is key. Here, the continual thrust of upright ascension is key. As is the safeguarding of the Afrikan self from contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrongdoings and the like. Onward and upward in continual momentum from whatever station, level or status the Afrikan may hold. For, this soul people must realise their maximal potential and capability in victorious risings of rightfulness.
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.
