What would you do if you couldn’t die no matter how much danger you’re in? If you couldn’t stop until your life’s mission is accomplished? How would you negotiate divine mandates and human adventures? Biték is a condensed cross-cultural tale of a man with a divine assignment: to save his village from the hands of colonisation. This is an expository account of European colonisation’s religious beliefs, laws, blatant violations and historical aggressions geared towards eradicating the cultural identity of Biték’s African ancestors. Moreover, this book demonstrates the developed political, social, spiritual and religious system Biték’s African ancestors had before violations of their natural rights in all kinds. As an exhumation of a great African tradition buried by European colonisation, Biték presents a vibrant appeal for the protection and preservation of world heritage. PRAISE FOR BITÉK ’A story of a simple man with an extraordinary will to live and let live.’ - Jericka P. Orellano, Managing Editor, Lexcode Philippines’This is a unique and fascinating book-wonderful storytelling that grips your attention, together with a razor-sharp deconstruction of the damage inflicted by European colonization on the life, culture and spiritual traditions of the author’s African ancestors ... I wholeheartedly recommend this book to you-independent of your cultural background and spiritual understanding.' - Rev. Dr. David Keizan Scott Roshi, Founder, StoneWater Zen Sangha, United Kingdom ’This is a book of wisdom.’- Mbombog Mbenda, patriarch and custodian of the Basaa tradition’An extraordinary contribution to the exhumation and understanding of our tradition buried by colonization.’- Mbombog Mbeleg, patriarch and traditional priest of the Basaa tradition
