In ancient African spiritual systems—long before colonial influence reshaped our narratives—Chi was understood as your guardian spirit, not your incarnate self. It is the first elemental spirit that followed you into this realm at birth, alongside a second elemental spirit, both of which play distinct roles in your journey. But here’s the tragedy—many have unknowingly driven their Chi away.
Over time, misinterpretations have blurred this understanding. Today, many traditional spiritualists mistakenly teach that Chi is simply your past-life self, leading people to perform unnecessary rituals and blood sacrifices, believing they are feeding their own Chi (past life incarnate spirit which unknown to them it is basically your soul). But the truth is:
Your incarnate spirit is not separate from you—it is you.
Your Chi, however, is your spiritual companion, your unseen guide, not something to be fed or bribed with sacrifices. The essence of this knowledge has been obscured, yet it remains embedded within our ancient traditions for those who seek with a clear heart.
Brothers and sisters of Afuraka, reconnect with the true wisdom of your ancestors. Do not be led astray by those who profit from confusion. Know your Chi. Know yourself. And walk the path of truth.
