Going Back To the Stream: An Existential and Integrative Imperative

Abstract

“Going back to the stream” is a coined term from an expression “KENWERE É KOTSE YAN KOBUE KETSE” gotten from the Boki heuristic beliefs system.   It connotes an existential command that injects consciousness in an individual and a guiding device in conflict resolution, and is integrative since it embraces a wide spectrum of issues and meanings in African philosophy.  In this paper we would look at this term with a view to exposing it as an existential and integrative tool for explaining Jean Paul Sartre’s existentialism and also for resolving human problems.

Keywords: Boki, Sartre, Existentialism, Conflict Resolution,Iintegrative.
