The most important thing in principle is that we should be weary of ukuthwasa umlozi at someones house unless then they reveal themselves while uthwasa/being initiated kaGobela. Reason being that each mlozi has his/her own ways that is a fact, all you need is ukhamba that will unblock them and open communication channels. From there they will direct you every step of the way. Where to go what to do and so on, ibona abakwaziyo ukuzikhuphula. I would be worried if my gobela engithwasisa umlozi and he speaks to them instead of me ngize ngiyophothula ngingabezwa bese kuthiwa bazokhuluma ekhaya. If you have amakhosi get ukhmba and unlock them if u are ready for the process that happened to umandlovu above, or else leave them alone. Now umlozi is also definately not an anima, its umoya wedlozi elithize like umnguni, umndawe umndiki and so on. People often think because there is sounds therefore there is an animal thats whistling.
