Abstract This study examines the African concepts of ultimate reality. The study aims to demonstrate how some authors have applied the concept of life in African world and traditional religion in providing an African reading of ultimate reality and meaning. The value which the Africans attach to life, its prolongation and security is the basis for our understanding of their concepts of ultimate reality. In fact, the whole efforts in African Traditional Religion (ATR) are geared towards the protection and guarantee of life and its security. The study shall also look at the challenges that have accompanied the ATR and its concepts of ultimate reality over history, especially since the continent's last encounter with Christianity.
