This is crystal clear. So it's safe to say that spirit posses the body through the umbilical cord, hence why it's cut when the spirit posses the body and why the umbilical cord is very important after childbirth. (This is just my analogy) 😊
Thank you, Nze Tobe Osigwe, for your insightful explanation of Chi and Onyeuwa in your UA-cam video. Could you please elaborate on who or what assigns Chi to each individual?
A simple analogy is when one has children,the progeny are genetic expressions of the parents. We are expressions of our onyeuwa,so we are unique and distinct from our onyeuwa just as the progeny are unique and distinct from a parent.
Hello all. My understanding is that we exist in multiple dimensions, hence our chi/higher self is existing in another dimension and a little part of our chi/ spirit/ our essence is in this body (our body cannot hold all our spirit). Secondly, if one is possessed is not two or more spirits in one? body?
Thank you for the information. So, according to Igbo thinking, the chi assigns itself to the body only at birth (the cry) and for the 9 months the woman is preparing the clothes/uniform for the chi?
Through my own personal research i can confirm this topic you covered and not confusing at all. Thank you! To add on, this is why no one should care too much about the earthly name of their reincarnator/onye uwa/chi through afa. It’s not always reliable! One’s Chi is always connected to an ancestor/ichie and also 1 of the 4 Igbo market days.
Hello this is really interesting. I have so many questions, I don't understand the individual nature of the reincarnated soul (I assume this is the same thing as spirit?) or the individual nature of the person / chi in the other world. Is everyone connected in the other world?
Everyone has a Chi, that is in the other world. The Chi is different from their incarnate spirit in this side. We believe the Chi on the other side is likely a departed ancestor who is helping you with the journey of life. The help is because of our limited nature as spirits once we are in the physical world wearing our physical human suit. See Chi as the people in a plane control tower, while you is the plane in a faraway space in the air.
Ezeikolommuo, daalu. I went to afa to know who my chi is and dibia afa told me that I am from Ikwunnem and told me the person i reincarnated for. The thing is that the said person he mentioned I saw her when i was still a child. I thought that you can only reincarnate for a dead person. Is it possible to reincarnate for someone when the person is still alive (though she is dead now). Another one is that he told me that the same person is my chi. So, this teaching just showed me that I may not have found who my chi is being that two spirits cannot exist in the same body- I cannot reincarnate for the same person and the same person still be my chi, just as dibia afa told me. Please, how can I really know my chi? I am new in omenani and everything seems confusing to me. All my life I've been a practicing Christian until last month when I was struck with a big sickness that seemed like it wanted to take me only for questions to be asked in a traditional means and it was revealed that I'm called to be a dibia. That was when I started getting better- after doing some traditional works. Daluu
Hello Chisom, I am happy you have chosen to start your journey to know and get intimate with your ancestral path. The truth is, the answers you seek will not be found or given in social media. I reside in Nnewi. If you can find your way to Nnewi. I will direct you to two Dibias that will do Afa Agu for you. After, you compare notes. Ji sie ike!

If we are fortunate to see, let's discuss this. But just know that you, who is the incarnate being walking this present journey of life, is different from your Chi, who is a departed ancestor in Ani Muo.
Ikolu mmuo, I greet you, please I am having a difficult understanding this chi concept Before I was born, they said my cousin is a reincarnation of my uncle, then after I was born they say too that my uncle is my reincarnate. I want to ask? Is it possible for a soul to reincarnate in two different bodies ?
@@omatakelechi373 soul reincarnated in two different bodies or they say one ancestor is a Chi to two different people? My dear, it's one soul per body per time/existence.
Ikenga is the amalgamation of your forces which includes but not limited to; Chi and Ndi-Ichie. Chi is your personal guide which is part of your Ikenga(strength).
There is a misunderstanding of the Chi concept here. All surviving records from the earliest written accounts of Igbos speaking about their religion ( as written by either British anthropologists and writers or the earliest trained Igbo historians, and scholars) prove that Chi is not Onye-Uwa/Chi-Uwa. Please, dig deeper. The records still exist. It is disappointing that dibias today are interpreting this aspect of Igbo spirituality from a position of disconnect and paucity of knowledge, occasioned by the disruptive influence of Christianity which induced the African equivalent of the European Dark Ages. If you need directions, I'll point you to the evidence.
@@onahejiofor7044 you are basing your misunderstanding from a book? And your advice is to dig deeper from books. If you have divergent opinion bring it with facts not with reference to books you could not even mention one single name and author. Explain why you believe Chi is not onyeuwa. Don't be disrespectful and shallow while disagreeing with anothers POV on a matter.
They are so many different Taughts and explanation of chi. But i just see chi as the spirit force/energy in charge to guide me tru life.
Wisdom from above
This your teaching deep ooo, i enjoyed d teaching
Yagazielugi!
Thank you Nze for this informative explanation. Now I have a better understanding of Chi.
Dalu. Thanks for watching.
Thanks!

It's another angle. I will like to ask a medic when is umbilical cord cut though.
Good teaching. I pray that you, Chi, will give you more wisdom to teach us the more ịseeeee

Ayuwa - being our guiding ancestor. Is it what we call guardian angel? Or we have a guardian spirit too
*Onye Uwa
Your Onye uwa is your Chi. Your Chi is your guardian angel.
Ozo, ekenem!
Nze, good day in the morning while praying, if I call the name of my chi, should I also call the name of my Onye uwa then idi ichie
Is your Chi different from your Onye Uwa?
I don’t know that’s why I’m asking because I need to know Nze
My father is not my Onye uwa
Thanks. I get it, but u had me confused again! 😕
Oh really? Please explain.
Ezeikolommuo i ga adi !
I was told that one’s onye uwa can be a spirit from the water, how true is this?
The audio quality is too poor, for such an important topic
My apologies
Tobe , this is confusing... If we are the real recarnation, who then do we sacrifice to ?
If we are fortunate to see, let's discuss this. But just know that you, who is the incarnate being walking this present journey of life, is different from your Chi, who is a departed ancestor in Ani Muo.
How about calling it CHI-UWA M
Does it mean that Ndi iche doesn't reincarnate
Ikolu mmuo, I greet you, please I am having a difficult understanding this chi concept
Before I was born, they said my cousin is a reincarnation of my uncle, then after I was born they say too that my uncle is my reincarnate.
I want to ask? Is it possible for a soul to reincarnate in two different bodies ?
No. It's not possible. Listen to this teaching very well. It should clear the confusion. A spirit can only inhabit one physical body at a time.
@@Ezeikolomuo😮
Yes soul can Reincarnate in two different body, it happened in my family.
@@omatakelechi373 soul reincarnated in two different bodies or they say one ancestor is a Chi to two different people?
My dear, it's one soul per body per time/existence.
Boss, Sorry i mean ancestor. Thanks for the corrections, I appreciate you.
Grand rising. What is the difference between chi and ikenga?
Ikenga is the amalgamation of your forces which includes but not limited to; Chi and Ndi-Ichie. Chi is your personal guide which is part of your Ikenga(strength).
You are trying to say , that our onyeuwa is in the spirit world , then do you believe in reincarnation as the igbo belief
If two spirits can't be in one body, what will you say about demonic posession or is that only a christian concept?
Demonic possession is a rare happenstance. Remember, exception is not the rule.

Ur bringing theology into tradition n is very bad because it confused many ppl
So Igbo tradition is devoid of theology?

I believe in reincarnation. In fact, all of us are incarnate beings.
