ENHANCING EXISTENCE
Three interwoven spheres of existence in Yoruba culture:
the world of the ancestor.
Every individual has the responsibility to enhance the process of existence during his or her passage from the world of the unborn to the world of the ancestor. One is thus part of the community of those who came before and those who will come after us. “The responsibility of creating an environment, which makes this particular passage in which one finds oneself congenial, is a communal responsibility.”
