Ala was originally the mother of the universe as Komosu. She lost her life by spying on her husband Chukwu. Her spying caused a massive Odachi (explosion) which gave birth to the universe from Onu Akwu (Sirius B), which is the bottomless ether hole. The cosmic tears of Chukwu resurrected her as Ala. And then Igbo people emerged out of her resurrected body (Aja Ana). This reason alone makes Ala the mother of all living things, because everything emerged out of her body. And the human female is an embodiment of Ala - the supreme mother.
