There could not be better evidence of the presence of the ethical element in the religious mysteries. Among the Yao, as among the Australian Kurnai, the central secret lesson of religion is the lesson of unselfishness. It is not stated that Mtanga instituted or presides over the mysteries.
He is called Mchimwene juene, 'a very chief. He has a kind of evil opposite, Chitowe, but this being, the Satan of the creed, 'is a child or subject of Mtanga, an evil angel, in fact. I do not gather that, though associated with good crops, Mtanga or Mulungu receives any sacrifice or propitiation.
Mtanga is by 'some' localised as the god of Mangochi, an Olympus left behind by the Yao in their wanderings. Here, some hold, his voice is still audible. 'Others say that Mtanga never was a man ... he was concerned in the first introduction of men into the world. He gets credit for ... making mountains and rivers. He is intimately associated with a year of plenty.
