Initiation
What is initiation?
This is what constitutes initiation.
Initiation is the act of following the lessons of a Master Teacher. This encompasses all of life lessons and all of nature. Because for us Africans, there are the living and the non-living present at the same time.
Since it is the elderly who generally have the most experience, and who have seen the most, they are considered the Great Initiators.
-The Great Nana Amadou Hampâté Bâ
