What of a Historical Present?

In looking back and sharing accounts amongst themselves of the times in which their great and enduring achievements were optimally expressed, Afrikan souls empower their present and future. The examples of superlative civilisations that stood on rightful order are times that are a resource of great knowing that can be passed on from generation-to-generation to be built with and upon. Here, the past can be examined and retold in present tense in order to generate highly informative moments of time as though their occurrence is immediate. In spirit and in the minds eye the historical greatness of this primary people can be experienced in such a way as to exact wisdom and the ways of rightful construction that can empower in direct and relatable ways the determinations of this soul people in their actual present.  

According to a contemporary mainstream source the phrase historical present is used to describe how past occurrence is recalled as though in the present. It is defined thus:

“In linguistics and rhetoric, the historical present or historic present, also called dramatic present or narrative present, is the employment of the present tense when narrating past events”.

Of course, naturally for Afrikan souls their history continuum is past, present and future. Yet still, a walk into the realms of what was to examine it as though it is in the now is important thrust to recall knowingness in service of their history that is being presently made. Certainly, upright life construction of excellence for these primary souls is far from something new and journeying in their repositories of historical abundance can yield a host of grand inheritances to claim.

Such journeying is no less important in a state of interruption and disruption. In fact, it may be considered of critical importance where attempts to induce or encourage deficits in self-knowing by others that mean the Afrikan ill abound.  

Whatever the challenges, it is only Afrikan souls themselves that can lift themselves with the effective ways in which they recall past history in the mode of historical present. Or, the ways in which they are effectively making their history as their historical present is established in the now.

Afrikan souls hold the most extensive journeying of humanity as the primary people of the world and as such can realise their expert history making and recall through the restoration of self-knowingness. Each soul from whatever station, level or status can make progressive steps to recover the knowingness of the themselves and their experience in service of necessary and continual upright ascension. At the same time souls can do the self a great service in safeguarding against contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrongdoings and the like.

Pinnacle civilisation for this primary people of creation is naturally: past, present and future. If somehow it is detached, isolated and confined exclusively to the past, then there is work of restoration, reconnection and ascension to be engaged in. It is acutely abnormal, disorderly and erroneous for this people to be in a state less than their highly civilised norm. Thus, the self-determined substance for constructive normality and optimal flourished must surely be enlivened for these pioneering souls. Civilisation is not an occurrence of happenstance in the then, in the now nor in the tomorrows to come.  

Afrikan Historia Msimu is an observance period for the duration of the tenth month of the year (so-called October). This is a special time for learning, growth and development of the Afrikan experience in the world. It is a time of spiritual and cultural elevation as Afrikan history is restored to fabric of life in the living knowingness of the then, the now and tomorrow. Great ones of the Afrikan journey are highlighted and the symbols relevant to the time invigorate life in the imperative onward flow of global Afrikan ascendancy.  This wonderful observance is a part of the cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).
