“In the eyes of the Afrikan people, especially those in touch with the teachings of the ancient Afrikan schools, the earth, our planet, is futu dia n’kisi diakanga Kalunga mu diambu dia moyo—- a “sachet” (parcel) of medicines tied up by Kalunga for life on earth. This futu or funda contains everything that life needs for its survival: medicines (n’kisi/bilongo), “food” (madia), “drink” (ndwinu), et cetera.” —-Kimbwandende Kia Bunseki Fu-Kiau (Self Healing Power and Therapy)
