The world exists as a dwelling place for all. However, every society has its own perception about how the world came into being. Such understandings about creation lead to differing societal norms among which number religion is one. Whether or not the universe was created in one systematic procedure gives much cause to worry. The discourse of such sociocultural patterns has given birth to the subject of worldview. Thus, the subject of worldview is a complicated one that requires much in-depth analysis. No wonder numerous religions exist.
Cosmology
When the Akan think about the cosmos, they have in mind a single world that is composed of two parallel worlds, one spiritual and the other corporeal. The corporeal world is the domain of humans suggesting that the corporeal would naturally take precedence over the spiritual or incorporeal. However, in the African scheme of thought this is actually not the case, because the spiritual reigns supreme in all matters, spiritual and corporeal. The corporeal world is merely a reflection of the spiritual, the original and "real" world of humans, because everything corporeal originated in the spiritual. If the spiritual world is the real and ideal home of humans, then how do we explain the presence of humans in the corporeal world?
