Papa Guede, the Bawons and the Guede Lwa represent the power and mystery of death, funerary rites and the afterlife in Haitian Vodou. They are the lost ancestors - the ancient unknown force that pushes us from behind.

The figure of a skull wearing sunglasses and a top hat is ubiquitous in popular culture, but often misrepresented and misunderstood. This workbook unpacks some of the myths and describes who these Lwa are and how they are served in Haitian Vodou. It is an educational guide for how to begin approaching these mysteries in a traditional and non-appropriative context, and includes guidelines on how to meet these spirits in the cemetery, as well as instructions for cleansings, baths and lamps that can be performed once a relationship with these spirits has been established.

This book should be used as an early way through the dark, not as a substitute for traditional education within an oral tradition.

Broken-record note for all who haven't yet discovered all the free book ressources available on the net: Mega.nz has decided to terminate my account due to copyright complaints again - the last time +16 GB of books were lost, this time it's 19 GB, and I'm not sure if I want to go to all that reuploading hassle yet again, either on mega or an alternative hoster, only to see my book stash posted here go down the drain again. The book sharing issue is already being discussed among both forum staff and members but in the meantime I'd like to ask you to download this book from annas-archive.org or welib.org.

There's a copy of the book (together with others by the same author) available on Anna's just waiting for you, so why don't you help yourselves?

Collection - HoldAll Mega Collection (2025-07-14)

It's 31.06 GB large and contains every single book, paper, treatise, etc. I've ever posted here until my second mega.nz account got trashed on July 14, 2025, so you'll hopefully understand now why I'm so loathe to fulfill each and every reupload request, not least because most of the stuff is...

Thank you for your understanding.
