It is obvious that while different in style, African people are linked through their practices that honor Almighty God, the Ancestors and the natural forces of the planet. They imbue their lives with a constant remembrance of the spirit world thereby living in constant union with the unseen. They are willing governed by the laws of the Universe that are universally meted out by the Higher Than All Forms. This Higher Than All Forms uses lesser beings such as as ancestors and deities to mediate and officiate these laws for the purpose of the growth of human society in harmony and love. These lesser beings are part of a hierarchy and represent the explicit connection that human beings can have with the Higher Than All Forms and all its creation. Through human interactions the Chiefs and Kings house the Godhead and are honored without reserve. African people, while expressing various belief practices are one in their belief systems. |

A Personal Note:
The information on these pages is derived from hours of painstaking research. As the author of this site I am committed to presenting the facts about Akan Traditional Practices with scholarship and correctness. My twenty year practice of African Traditional Practices has made me stalwart in this attempt. Please bear with me as as I compile pages developed through my own research and/or links to other sites.
