This depiction of the Kongo Cosmogram is based on a description by Dr. Fu-Kiau. It depicts the physical world known as Nseke, the spiritual (ancestral) world known as Mpémba, the Kalûnga river that runs between the two worlds, the four moments of the sun, and the mfinda (forest) that spiritually connects both worlds.
Mfinda is a spiritual concept of the forest in Kongo religion.
