VODOU is not a religion, but a spiritual practice based on ancestral tradition and culture. The practices focus is on traditions left by our ancestors and those that came before us.

For the most this systematic form of spiritual living included the regular family member as well those who were invited to also be part of the family under the Principe of the lakou.

The Purpose of Mès de Mò and Libera

The Mès de Mò places the deceased within communal prayer and asks for peace, mercy, and spiritual assistance. The Libera extends that work in a form adapted to the cemetery or bitasyon, often under the leadership of a pè savann. It serves as a bridge between formal Catholic memorial language and the family’s inherited règleman.

Subsequent rites may include offerings, invocations, ancestral prayers, or other lineage-specific practices. Their purpose is not merely to repeat Borum or the funeral. They continue the passage of the deceased: the person is remembered through the sacred forms received in life, supported through prayers for the dead, and restored to the family as an ancestor capable of receiving honor and offering protection.
