Yon apèl nan aksyon ESPIRITYÈL!


Istwa se yon seri de konekte evènman ki lakòz yo moman sengilye ak siyifikativman enpòtan nan tan. Libète Ayiti a se vre rezilta a nan yon seri de konekte evènman, kèk plis remakab pase lòt moun.

Si memwa sèvi yo kòrèkteman, li te "seremoni Bois kaiman a" ki finalman ak byen fèm te plante grenn yo pou libète tou de nan tanporèl a kòm byen ke espirityèl sans. Men, li se ironik ke anpil panse a Vodou kòm yon "relijyon desantralize ak organize."

Malgre ke nou pa ka rejte lit yo ki te pran plas anvan ak apre Bois kaiman, li te nan Bois kaiman ki ayisyen frè ak sè yo te jwenn objektif nan inite, bi nan konfyans ak nan realizasyon nan ultim nan pwomès la pou libète pa konekte ak move lespri Zansèt.Nou nou an.

Avèk chanjman yo ki Lwa ayisyen, Vodou se anba atak ankò! Nou te wè rapò sa yo, te tande nan manifestasyon yo ak gen menm yon petisyon yo te sikile sou entènèt la, ki se yon inisyativ gwo pa frè ak sè nou. Sa a se yon apèl nan yon "ekleraj" inivèsèl sou li a, 1 NOVANM 2012 ant 7-8 AM EST pou pwoteksyon an nan Vodou an Ayiti.

Entansyon an se pa, epi pa janm yo pral, yo pote mal nan moun ki ta vle retire dwa nou an, men yo mennen yo nan limyè a epi enspire yo nan pwoteje libète relijyon nou an.

Sa a rele ale soti nan tout Vodouisant atravè glòb lan. Moun sa yo ki nan nou fèt soti nan Ayiti, ki moun ki menm yo pa moun zansèt ayisyen, kite l ap li te ye ke jodi a ou yo! Lè ou reponn apèl la nan move lespri yo li pase bra Vodou, ou pa sèlman eritye move lespri yo, men ou intrinsèquement te vin fè pati istwa ayisyen ak chanpyon nan prezèvasyon nan kilti nou yo ak pratik zansèt.

Se konsa, soti isit la tout kwen nan planèt sa a, tanpri, rantre nan nou sou 1ye novanm. Se pou nou rele sou zansèt nou epi sonje Bois kaiman! Gaye pawòl la nan chak kay, chak blog, chak manbo, Ougan, ak tout moun ki ap sèvi yo. Rele sou moun ki te resamman te pase! Se pou nou tout y'ap rele nan pye AYIBOBO sou 1ye novanm, ak nan mitan lannwit .... kite nou vle di li.

Sorry I missed this date, but will do what I can in my own way. My rough [non-expert] translation of the announcement is as follows:

History is a series of connected events caused by significantly important and singular moments in time. Haiti's freedom is indeed the result of a series of connected events, some more notable than others.

If memory serves correctly, it was the "ceremony at Bois Cayman" that finally and firmly planted the seeds of freedom both in the temporal as well as spiritual sense. But it is ironic that many think of Vodou as a "decentralized and organized religion."

Although we cannot reject the struggle that took place before and after Bois Cayman, it was in the Bois Cayman that Haitian brothers and sisters found objective unity, purpose and confidence, and the ultimate realization of the promise of independent freedom and the spirit ancestors. We us.

With the changes in law, Haitian Vodou is under attack again! We have seen these reports, been heard in demonstrations and have even circulated a petition on the Internet, which was a great initiative by our brothers and sisters. This is an appeal for an "ekleraj" [illumination] on November 1, 2012 between 7-8 PM EST for protection of Vodou in Haiti.

The intent is not, and never will be, to bring harm to those who wish to remove our rights, but to bring them into the light and inspire them to protect our freedom of religion.

This call goes out to all Vodouisant across the globe. Those of us who are born out of Haiti, who are not of Haitian ancestors, let it be known today what you are! When you answered the call of the spirits and embraced Vodou, you not only inherited the spirits, but intrinsically became part Haitian history and a champion of preserving our culture and our ancestor practice.

So, from all corners of the planet, please join us on November 1st. Let us call on our ancestors and remember Bois Cayman! Spread the word to every home, every blog, every Mambo, Ougan, and all who serve. Call on people who have recently passed! Let us all cry AYIBOBO on November 1st, and at night .... let us mean it.
