UMvelinqangi is aNguni word which translates to "the Most High" or "Divine Consciousness"; that is considered the source of all that has been, that is and all that ever will be.
UMvelinqangi, contrary to widespread belief[citation needed] is not personified. Umvelinqangi is most accurately described as the creator of all things, not male, not female, not both, not a spirit but indescribable.
Ukukhothama (prostration) was a widespread practice prior to westernisation among theZulu clan. Ukukhothama was seen as a way of attaining ubunye noMvelinqangi (oneness with the divine conscious). This practice is primarily the reason why the Zulu clan survived through the ages without any form of western/modern resources.
