Bwity part 2
There are no human voices in the spiritual world, that is why the person to be initiated is guided there by instrumental music. On the long way back to this life, however, he is welcomed by songs located between spiritual and earthly communication. The lyrics are only understandable to initiated people and use a lot of symbols - often they reinterpret opposite poles as circular processes - and frequently use a foreign language (Mabongo, for example, the language of the Pygmies from between Sindara and Mimongo). Thus, the content is transmitted partly "spiritually" and serves to hold the balance between this world and the spiritual one.
