| Video Discription | Candomblé Is an African-originated or Afro-Brazilian religion, practiced chiefly in Brazil by the "povo de santo" (people of saint). It originated in the city of Salvador, the capital of Bahia. Cachoeira, at the time was one of the main commercial crossroads for the distribution of products and slave trade to other parts of Bahia state in Brazil. Although Candomblé is practiced primarily in Brazil, it is also practiced in other countries in the Americas, including Uruguay, Argentina, Venezuela, Colombia, Panama and Mexico, and in Europe in Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain. The religion is based in the anima (soul) of Nature, and is also known as Animism. It was developed in Brazil with the knowledge of African Priests that were enslaved and brought to Brazil, together with their mythology, their culture and language, between 1549 and 1888. The rituals involve the possession of the initiated by Orishas, offerings and sacrifices of the mineral, vegetable and animal kingdom, healing, dancing/trance and percussion. Candomblé draws inspiration from a variety of people of the African Diaspora, but it mainly features aspects of Yoruba Orisha veneration. This video depicts the public part of the initiation of an Iyawô. Before this open ceremony, the Iyawô was secluded for 21 days submitted to rituals of initiation, like fastings, baths, herb medicines, animal sacrifices and prayers. The followers of Candomblé have been chased in the past and even today suffer great discrimination from christian religions in Brazil. [ATgNzwHSfjw] |
