Souleymane konate

At the beginning in the void of the universe, it all started with the “YO” sound including everything and especially human consciousness. Koni, the supreme god and creator of the world, a according to the mythology Bambara created 3 spirits including Faro- the spirit of water, Pemba – the spirit of the earth and Teliclo – the spirit of the air. Through the creation of two sets of twins, the world was populated by animals and plants as well as human beings all from the seeds of acacias. The anchoring of the roots / feet of human, plant and animal characters is represented in the Soul tables as a solid and unitary base. This anchor represents the root of man’s evolution in this mythology where “everything came from nothing” but is in harmony with the notion of the common root of the human soul.
