What of a Cultural Approach?

What could be considered to be a mainstay approach to life for Afrikan souls in their natural state of optimal flourishing? There are many important avenues of engagement in the lives of this primary people of creation that could be considered their approach to greatness. Indeed, throughout their continuum there is little to no wastefulness of general life engagement, for each element of life’s functioning holds its necessary role for their constructive ascension. That stated, the role of culture is fundamental and imperative and any focus on the approach to life via this people’s core fabric of living holds its weight of centrality and ever-present influence for this people to have realised their maximal potential and capability. The outward expressions of their pinnacle civilisations stand as unwavering testaments to their self-determined and self-empowering thrust of exceptional brilliancy.

According to a mainstream contemporary source, the term cultural approach is described in the following way:

“The Cultural Approach aims to identify and analyse the cultural aspects that influence political systems and policy outcomes. It seeks to uncover the norms, values, and beliefs that may shape the motivations and actions of individuals and groups, consequently affecting political decisions, policies, and institutions”.

If applied to Afrikan souls, such detail could somewhat lean to relieve the norm of Afrikan self-determined culture from is natural position of fundamental centrality. Albeit that such a description may be intended to relate to a specific contemporary institutions and targeted situations, for Afrikan souls what may be deemed as being their ‘political systems’ are naturally outward expressions of their cultured fabric. Or, to put it another way, such systems are outwardly expressed from their highly civilised living of rightful order. For this soul people, a cultured approach is not an added bolt-on or external observational lens to some existence already underway. Rather, their cultural approach is the core stuff of their lived life.

Of course, in state of interruption and disruption the natural norm of self-determined Afrikan culture can be erroneously be made to be deemed as foreign to Afrikan souls themselves. With destructive impositions of others that mean the Afrikan ill, wholesome relation to culture can be turned on its head. Instead, grotesque and destructive forms of pseudo-culture can be pushed and peddled with intent to effect Afrikan demise. It is therefore, the approach to ills of pseudo-culture that ought to be warrant concern for Afrikan souls as an avenue to safeguard against.  

Yet, despite the challenges, the onus and responsibility for restoration of their upright cultural fabric and to realise a wholesome cultural approach that can allow Afrikan souls to navigate themselves into optimality, firmly rests upon Afrikan shoulders. This pioneering people of culture and civilisation hold the capacity to reveal grand civilisation if they get to know themselves and apply such knowingness accordingly.  Surely, only a highly civilised approach to life can realise high civilisation.
