Kongo religion (KiKongo: BuKongo) is a broad set of traditional beliefs from the KiKongo speaking peoples.

The idea of a high god named Nzambi Mpungu who gave birth to all the other gods, the world and spirits who inhabit it, is common, but Ancestor worship builds up the main religious beliefs. Shamanly doctors, known as Nganga, try to mediate between the spirit realms and the physical world, as well as heal followers' minds and bodies. Mediatory roles like being a Nganga require legitimization from the other world of spirits and ancestors. The universe is split between two worlds, one of the living (nza yayi) and a world of the dead (nsi a bafwa), where spirits and gods exist, these worlds are

Els metges sacerdotals coneguts com a intenten curar les ments i els cossos dels seguidors. Els rols mediadors com ser un nganga requereixen la legitimació de l'altre món d'esperits i avantpassats. L'univers es divideix entre dos mons, un dels vius (nza yayi) i un món dels morts (nsi a bafwa), aquests mons estan dividits per una massa d'aigua. Els humans passen contínuament per aquests mons en cicle. (ca)

A fé se baseia na ideia do deus criador Nzambi Mpungu que criou o mundo e os espíritos que nele habitam. Médicos sacerdotais conhecidos como ganga tentam curar as mentes e corpos dos seguidores. Papéis mediadores como ser um ganga requerem legitimação do outro mundo de espíritos e ancestrais.
