In African world cultures, or cultures of African peoples around the world, one of the most important communicative tool is libation. It is a cultural, rather than a religious, act which allows us to remember those who passed, engage the forces of nature, and have our spirits connected to ancestors near and dear to us, even if we've never met them personally. @poweredbynyame

Currulao is the main traditional genre of Abibifo⁣ɔ music out of the Southern Pacific Coast of 'colombia' and Northern Pacific Coast of 'ecuador'. This group is specifically from Timbiqui, Cauca, a Pacific Coastal town in the biogeographic Choco region. Timbiqui is also the name of the river where the community of Timbiqui is located. This song is about singing to the river asking for a safe passage, to let them go up the river, don't drown us (no me vayas a hogar), don't wet us (no me vayas a mojar), let me go up (dejame subi'). This is a continuation of evidence of our Kmtyu worldview regardless of location and colonial language. Reverence and respect for nature, the oceans, the rivers, and the source of life, water. This can be seen as a libation song for traveling up the Timbiqui river safely. The main instrument is the marimba, made from the palm trees in the Choco rainforest, and said to be a reconstructed descendant of the balafon made by Abibifo⁣ɔ in a new context. We carried Abibiman with us!

Fu-Kiau Bunseki, Ph.D. is one of the great scholars of the African religion, and the leading authority on the Bantu-Kongo civilization. He is also a genuine practitioner of the Kongo spiritual tradition. He is initiated into the three "secret societies" Lemba, Khimba and Kimpasi. Lemba is the foundation for several African based religious practices including Palo Mayombe (Cuba), Vodou Petro (Haiti) and Candomble Angola (Brasil). African cosmology of the Bantu-Kongo explores the Bantu-Kongo religious and philosophical teachings, as well as concepts of law and crime. It connects the reader with one of the most ancient and powerful spiritual traditions-explore "seven-direction walk" of our origin and links to society, nature and the universe.
