There is a divine pronouncement among the Akan that all human
beings are children of God (Nana Nyame), none a child of the earth
(mother); meaning that human beings are spiritual in origin,
descending directly from God via the Abosom (gods and goddesses).
Every person then has a deity as father ( gya-bosom), recognition
of which existentially enables a person to fulfil one's career or
professional blueprint (Nkrabea). Intrinsically, therefore, human
beings embody the very essence of the Abosom, which manifests
itself behaviorally and psychologically in a manner identical to
those of the gods and goddesses. African Personality and
Spirituality: The Role of Abosom and Human Essence therefore
addresses ultimate existential concerns of the Akan, revealing the
essence of the primeval gods and goddesses and how they transform
themselves into human beings, as well as the psychology of
personality characteristic attributes, the phenomenon of spirit
alightment, and other manifestations of the gods and goddesses, and
the imperative of ethical existence and generativity ( bra bO) as
basis of eternal life.
