| 520 | |a This essay decenters notions of centrality and periphery as we aim to delineate the metaphysical elements of Haitian Vodou, a Diasporic religion in the Americas, and the manner in which its metaphysics becomes a national ethos of sorts, rooted in time, both past and present. We aim to use Danbala and Ayida as motif to explore Vodou hierophanies and irruptions of the sacred; as motif of negotiated relationships with divine energies, of ritual lineage and human ancestry, of complex gender notions; and as meditations on the natural world. These themes reveal important notions of oneness of being, of equilibrium and balance, as well as konesans, the all-encompassing wisdom that merges with knowledge—all represented by the great cosmic egg of the rainbow-serpent entities Danbala and Ayida. | ||
