Multi-talented media personality Somizi Mhlongo took to his Instagram account to share another important piece of advice with his fans and followers. The idol SA judge shared a video where he talked about the importance of being in tune with your ancestors and spirituality.
He said the message was specifically for people who believe in African traditional practices, ancestors, and those who acknowledge the existence of the spirits of their ancestors.
“I want to make it clear, I am not talking to people who worship because there is a difference… I acknowledge my ancestors, they exist, they live within me, but I only worship God. The ancestors are part of my blood, my veins, my existence they are my father, my mother…”
He said people realize as they get older why some of the things they hoped for do not happen the way they expected. He added that sometimes people lose those closest to their hearts because their ancestors know what’s good for them.
“Growing up we realize why certain things do not happen, why we don’t get certain jobs, or why certain people we thought are going to be with us for a lifetime, either friends or relatives or partners, they leave us or we leave them.
“There is something that we take for granted, that your ancestors will fight your battles, they will guide you, protect you, enlighten and that happens when we lose certain people that we thought they are our rides or die because our ancestors see what we can’t see with our naked eye,…They see the plots, the connivingness, jealousy and hate that our so-called either friends or soulmates hide from us.”
Concluding his video, Somizi encouraged people to be in tune with their spirituality. He said if you are in tune, you will understand things that are happening in your life.
“I am saying to you, be in tune with your spirituality, be in tune with your ancestors so that you know that sometimes certain things have to happen for you to move to another level. If you are spiritually in tune you will understand that immediately.”
