Majini---

Can you try to read Egyptian History, you will find a good meaning ya Majini. It is associated with spirits.

There would be no hope for the human race if diseases could be passed on by passed gas.

game · Guru

if diseases were passed on by chiphwisi then we would all be doomed.

Like an air-borne disease or something!!!! What puzzles me is that 'majini' were/are more pronounced in Mw but i am yet to hear of the same case in the UK/USA...i tried to connect it with having fits but that's epilepsy. Thanx for the input though. Will try to look it up as suggested.

Another thing, kuti ndi dziwe za majini ndinawelenga a novel by Wilbur Smith, the Seventh Scroll. Koma ndi osiyana ndi amene amadwala a Malawi. May Be Mutation inachitapo kanthu. Komanso chithakukakhala what Malawians call Chifufu.

Majini ndi mau ochokera ku chiswahili and it means evil spirits offlet when somebody (there in tanzania whilst some other places its still there(belief)) when one have this kind of disease they would normally kill him/her or isolate her because they believe its demonic sacred disease.

in short the diagnosis ,provocants or triggers of this disease in medicine is just the same with epilepsy though ena amafuna koonetsetsa ma predisposing elements which causes this disease which in most case they are based on maybe or maybe not concept

Medication and pharmacological as well as response to its seizures ndi chimozi chiseko ndi felemu

zikomo ndakhuta ndipite kutchitino sizmene tinabwerela kunja kuno kodi odala

in my honourable opinion,majini or whatever you call it is vimbuza in my tumbuka language,they are clowns,they perform to the beating of drums,if you go to your village those that come from the north will agree with me,they play drums especially in the middle of the night,and this woman comes out beating her chest like a guerilla in cordination with the rythimic druming,just like a possesed person in the movie christ.these people are like exorcists,they can tell if there is a witch in the village,they claim to have seen visions.most vimbuza people are women.

watch out if she starts vimbuza while love making,they will break your chipolata.

Chifufu associated with majini? But chifufu is epilepsy and once during alidzi's regime there used to be lots of majini as the 6th july were at a climax........with ndege ndi mizinga plus all that noise. I wish i could see now someone having them cos its only Malawi that that particular majini was paramount then...sinanga panopo i dont get to hear of them as often as when we was young.

Nice one to do it in bed.......Think of all the action!!!!

Game ndiwe wabodza, mulibe majini mchitumbuka. Vimbuza ndi vimbuza basi. Majini is a swahili word as somebody has already said. You can only hear this word if you go up north especially in Karonga. Its only Ngonde people who can tell well about this word. Is there anybody here from Karonga?
