Celebrating the Harvest of All-Year-Round Cultivated Effort for Upright Ascension

For their superlative and enduring
civilisations to have flourished throughout the ages, Afrikan souls must have
managed their culture at a level worthy of the outcome. Whilst this pioneering
people produced exceptional souls of brilliant cultural acumen, the stewardship
of their lived deeply rooted core cultural fabric rightfully was a part of the
remit of this primary people as a whole with each soul efficaciously and inherently
doing their part throughout each grand cycle of life.
According to a contemporary mainstream source, the term cultural stewardship holds the following meaning:
“Cultural stewardship is the philosophy that a person is responsible for preserving the value of cultural objects, events, resources and traditions”.
Certainly, throughout their natural norm of self-determined thriving Afrikan souls such a responsibility blends into the life of each soul of highly cultured living. However, in a state of interruption and disruption, what of Afrikan cultural stewardship? Obviously, in order to preserve the value of cultural objects, events, resources and traditions these must exist for the people who’s culture from which they have come. Unfortunately, having been destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, Afrikan highly cultured normality can suffer acutely. Consequently, preservation can also suffer or be nullified. However, the role of cultural stewardship may not simply evaporate into non-existence. It may become distorted or misdirected to effect the preservation of destructive pseudo-cultural facets to the boon of others that mean the Afrikan ill.
Here, the recovery and restoration of Afrikan culture, its objects, events, resources and traditions in service of Afrikan highly civilised normality are vital. Only Afrikan souls can do this for themselves. This primary people of creation hold the capacity and keys to their own ascension of rightful order and fullest flourishing. If this people can restore their rightful place of cultural stewardship, then they are in actuality restoring the stewardship of their civilised living.
By converse, any managerial efforts haemorrhaged to preserve destructive pseudo-cultural existence ought to be cast into a pit of redundancy. To elevate themselves and to safeguard themselves of contaminants of ill, Afrikan souls can - and surely must – exercise restoration of a level self-knowingness through study, learning, development and growth. Holding the acumen for effective cultural stewardship day-to-day can surely be readily amplified to become the stewardship of pinnacle civilisation.
