Sometimes we take life too seriously as if when we die, the world will stop. When you die, the only thing that will stop is your heart. Everything else will go on as if you never existed. We should never inflate our worth. As we say in Kikuyu, “the world has no owner”.
Thi ndiri mwene.
The afterlife was one of the biggest contentions that led to the formation of the African Independent Church called “idi”
According to kikuyu tradition and spiritualism, there is no after life and the dead will not rise back to life. Instead, the world will just end and when you die you cease to exist. You will not go to heaven to your fahter’s house, as heaven is the house of God and just like real life, once you leave your fahter’s house, you do not go back to live there
That is why some people in kikuyu land think they are jews as jews also hold the same belief.
