This belief provides a common understanding in African communities, and brings about harmonious living. • When the first generation of humans died, they joined the Supreme Being in the spiritual world and became the first ancestors. • In African Traditional Religion it is believed that because the ancestors live in the spirit world, they have the power to protect the living and communicate with God on behalf of the living. • Belief in an afterlife (spiritual world) encourages cooperative and harmonious living. • Even though they are dead, the ancestors are still seen as part of the family and the living community. • The living members of the family communicate with the ancestors through the ritual of sacrifice. • This sense of accountability encourages harmonious living, as people strive to honour and appease their ancestors. • The belief in Ubuntu encourages caring and sharing in the community .e.g caring for widows and orphans.
