I am a 16 year old white Cuban
American. Even though I do not pratice vodou i do pratice another religon originated in Africa and broght to Cuba in the same way it reached Haiti.
In Cuba it is mainly known as Palo as well as
Santeria (regla de ocha) they related but not the same. Palo is closer to Vodou than Santeria my reason for pointing this out is that while I was reading some of the comments giving, one person claimed to have belonged to a house of Ocha (Santeria)
but didn't like it because he belived that "Santeros" (initiatives of ocha) feared Vodou.Which I can say from experience that not is not
true. Santors don't fear Vodou; its actually the complete opposite because most santors practice palo which is like vodou only it evolved differently because of the different cultural background between Cuba abd
Haiti. Vodou and Palo are different in many way because once the religion were taken out of African and prohibited by the slave owners in there new home the african knew they had to contiune there pratice in secert or not at all.Causing each society or house to vary in the way they pratice the religion but the foundation of the religion remained the same. As, it occured in Haiti. That is where there difference come
from.
I am a new initaite in Palo but I have lived with members of this religion my whole life.And, even though there was a limited amount of things I could know with out being an initate I did learn alot from my Cuban
family. I am a born American and I love my religion. I live in Miami which is mainly hispanic inhabitants but that does not mean that i am not faced with ignorance toward my religion because of holllywood version of Vodou. I do not hide my belief actually it is the compelet opposite all friends knw my religion and i have no problem wearing my religious beads. i have tryed to explain my religion to people have said something i found to be untrue or to the ones who have taken the time to ask me of my religion.I know that a simiple explaination is not enough to change way our religions are viewed but its a start. I have been asked about Santeria, Palo, even Vodou and the relationship between our religion. i would a preciate if you could claer the fact that our religion come from the same people have just evoled in different ways.
I visited your site because i am studying my religion with my spiritual father or as i would call him my godfather, but i also do my own studying on my own
time. Since now it would not be a disrespect to learn in details my religion because i have been
initiated. I am also studying the yoruba language because it is used both in Santeria as Palo,but that not an easy task because there are so many different dialects. As, i've said in my pior comment I was pleased with your site because it give me another view of what my religion evolved to. In the begining of my comments i stated the fact that I am white, i did this because color seem to be in issue atleast with americans who don't believe in this religion. In cuba a great percent of initives are white. It is actually very normal for you to practice the religion no matter what your ancestor were or did.
This religion does not discrimate which is another miss understanding. My godfather is black while I am white. and he is another father for me.

Akwaaba!(Greetings) Papa!
This is Dr. K.F.Ashanti. It has been long since we talked. The American Board of African Traditional Priests, Healers, and Religions, INC. is still alive. It turned out to be begger and more significant than one person. I need to talk with you about planning our National Convention soon.
I will be going to Togo and
Benin this summer.
Can you go with me?
This is going to be BIG.

I am very interested in the Vodou religon. I've read a number of books on the subject, and find it to be an endless scource of fascination. While I do not subscribe to any religeon myself (I'm agnostic), I'm willing to keep an open mind. I'd be interested in corresponding with a member of the Vodou faith in order to get a better understanding of it and to see if there are any Hounfors in my area (I live in San Antonio, Texas), as I would like to attend a ceremony and witness first hand possesion by the loa.

I visited Haiti in summer of '89 and spent 3 days as an initiate in your temple at Le Peristyle
de Mariani. 
Alice, my spiritual mother took care of me in the shrine. I have never experienced such peace or felt so connected in Spirit. I visited Haiti with Mambo Fatema and Joseph of New Jersey. I have since married and my last name has changed, but my spirit longs to connect to my spiritual roots again.

Being born in New Orleans and now living in Pennsylvania, I have always been interested in Vodou. Have read and have the books by Milo Rigaud; Les secrets du vodou and vè-vè diagrammes rituels du vodou.
Since I did see a documentary on Voodoo in which Dr. Max Beauvoir spoke my inner spirit said to me that this man can be trusted and anyone he has trained to be a houn'gan I have confidence in their training.
While in New Orleans I belonged to a house of Ocha in Santeria but did not feel comfortable with the system. Santeria is not voodoo, not of the culture of Louisiana. I have learned enought to know that the priest of Santeria, fear Vodou.
I am also familiar with the Spiritist teaching of Allan Kardec and have the sight to see the dead and have passed spirit before.

I have interest in taking herbalism into western medicine, educating the "educated" Many, many people use herbs at the same time as pharmaceuticals.
Herbalists cannot stay uninformed of interactions, nor can western medicine practitioners.
There are many people in Santa Cruz, Calif who would want to hear more from you.

Dear Sir I'm very interrested in Yoruba tradition. My special interrest is in in the combination of a social/medicalhealing inside spiritual dialog and thinking with the LWA.
I was reading literature From IFA Bascom, Neimark, de Rosny. I am working with cubanien Babawlawoo who like to give me the warriors that we can start work together, what is not possible now because I am not initiated. I am very interrested in the vodoun healing rituals like in Benin or Bantu from Kamerun. I am interrest what you are doing exatctly.
Are you an university for tradtional medicin?
I would like to start knowing more about your work. I am living in Germany/Europe.

I've just scratched the surface of what seems to be the most dynamite website of this kind ever! But....what more can I say of the charismatic presence of the incomparable Max Beauvoir! Thanks Max! Our initial meeting in (Port-au-Prince) New Jersey last summer has guided ,and strengthened me ever since. Now, I hope to see you again this summer. God bless you and keep you and yours until then.

I have studied and practiced my Full Mon Blessing rituals for quite some time now, but, being disabled on limited money, and having much sickness in my life has slowed me down terribly so, but I respect this religion, and honor it highly.
I love God, just as you people also love God and everyone should be free to worship God as they please, I go to New Orleans, LA as much as I can, and pay respects to the late, great, Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau, since she helped the sick, needy, and the poor, just as I have helped people myself in this life.
I want to get initiated into this group, but I am sort of lost as to how I must go about it. I am willing to learn more, and My candles, incense really helps me when I meditate and pray, I dance when I am able, and play drums when I am able, and I have a college degree, so at least I do understand how precious this religion is. People who are not educated do not realize how this religion is an official religion!
More later, I am delighted to find love in this Temple, and the warmth I feel, tells me i am in the right place., and people are just jealous of me because I am generous and have many musician friends, actor friends, etc., but I am on a tight budget, receiving the disability I get once per month--and I hope the question I asked can be resolved for the better, so that I can have money and a secure future, because I know I did not do what the court claims I have done, they said they picked me up because I did not show up for court June 3rd of 2001!
That was A Sunday! Plus, I was A witness for the State, against actual estranged husband who was threatening his wife, and I lived in the court all summer long, and I asked the Lawyer, where was my Subpeona, since June 3rd fell between the 3 months I was in court to defend my female friend from May 12, to August 15, 2001!

Ever since I knew Max and worked with him, his Mambo's, and Houngans at The Temple of Yahweh, I became a person who understood and respect Vodoun as a rich religion. No other religion in my life had made me personally see so much about life through spirituality then Vodoun. Vodoun gave me the opportunity to cleanse my spirit and made me see the mistakes I have made in my life and correct it at the same time.
With Vodoun, I am able to progress in a life that will be full of peace and happiness. This is why I thank you so much Mr. Beauvoir for what you have done for me in my life. For those who would view Vodoun as an evil religion, I urge them to not be ignorant and study it.
You will be amaze to see what kind of rich religion Vodoun is.
