  1. Very inspiring but here is where I draw the line. For me, Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. One day you shall meet Him face to face. He is not a "muzungu thing", He is the Son of the living God who died and rose again, paid for our sins so that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. I pray that the light of Christ through the gospel will shine on you and enlighten you and lead you to eternal life. Witchcraft is satanism, nothing less and all witches will end up in hell. At your old age, remember the Lord your God and forsake this kind of faith that you may inherit the kingdom of God.

  2. The cutline of such matters is, the spiritual contact point,the big question is in African spirituality ,which Spirit(s) ,are you contacting, that is what classifies it , if it is divination through your diviners, that is totally witchcraft dude, if it is ancestors, that is one potent area of witchcraft called Necromancy….

  3. Brilliant. Kenyans should visit Benin Republic. One of the fastest growing economies in the world and a country on the move. A country that is also rapidly decolonizing with Vodun at the core of everything and a national priority.

  4. I had forgotten about Mallu. First read 'After 4:30' back in the 80s at the height of adolescence and found it very stimulating.
    Amazed at how prolific he's been. Will be looking for his books.

  5. Nice one but am disappointed with Incremation!!! That's not an Africa culture.
    Africans respect the dead and bury the dead on the ground. That's ancestry!!!

    As knowledgeable as you are in African cosmology, choosing incremation over natural burial for your wife is disappointing. That's my opinion. You have right to do what you what but if you want to promote African stuff, do it in full. I didn't see African traditional wears and artifacts too. However, weldone. 😊

  6. You interrupted him when he wascabout to say how he stsrted Syokimau statue from scratch…thats the story. The railways can be googled…you kinda rushing through.

  7. So much wisdom shd turn the place into a museum could like to visit the guy is very smart and sharp at 86 shd hv asked his routine trump sculpture was so funny very creative

  8. Ukuna kitu apa☠️…this man is so Westernized that he is more of an intellectual than a Spiritual leader let alone African Spiritual Leader.Africans dont be fooled !!!Mainstream media(cunning/propaganda media)will never take you to the REAL thing.

  9. This is what i have been looking many thanks showcasing our religion culture,, does the Prof has some books i would love to read his phylosophical sage in regards to African religion spirituality

  10. This is witchcraft and idolatry.
    The Bible is very clear on that.
    "Do not have other gods besides me. Do not bow to them nor worship them for I the Lord am a jealous God. I pay vengeance to the third and the fourth generation. "
    Be careful!!
