In keeping with a range of classic ancient symbolic traditions, the cosmology of the modern-day Dogon tribe of Mali describes how our material universe comes to be evoked through a fairly simple set of dynamics of energy. The Dogon priests say that these same energetics also foster and support the functions of biological life. Moreover, they insist that ordinary, everyday water, with its familiar cycles and forms, presents us with a quintessential pattern for understanding how these creational energies work. Here we explore the ways in which the Dogon say those creational energies emerge, while also cross-confirming concepts, words, symbols, myths, and rituals to matching elements preserved in ancient Egyptian, Hindu, Buddhist, Kabbalist, and other authoritative traditions.
