For humans, gods become necessary to undertake the trip until to find the harmony that reigned in the beginning and that was lost. Only here is, many paths are possible; it is what seemed to tell the old man to its nephew:

" Listen Kuashi;Time had two sons. One of them asked the gods to walk in front of him. So as not to lose them, he was obliged to run because the gods move quickly.

The second son of Time asked the gods to follow him; he had no trouble keeping up with the spirits but he found himself a long way behind his brother."

( L'Horloger de Kouti ; le commencement " )

Or when it tells: " gods are to live "or well, when it asserts that " gods are in us. " Consider the god of the smallpox, the god Sakpata. One tells that it is the creation of the god of the medicine. Here is the legend :

As you know now, the god of the medecines is infirn, it had to undergo a day the mockeries of Lêgba, the god of crossing, concerning its infirmity; furious, the god of medicines raised a huge cloud of dust in which it enclosed all sicknesses, and especially, germs of the smallpox; it spread this cloud on the earth sowing thus the desolation to the breast of humans. Since, the officiants of the divinity‚ unite each year villager to tell them the history of the god in the course of religious ceremonies that are especially the opportunity to bestow to the peoples precautions to respect to avoid the smallpox. ( But, one claims that to the last century, the Great Britain would have forbidden this cult; because authorities of occupations would suspect members of the brotherhood to propagate deliberately the pain to insure its hand - placement on the population; ( so, it remains the clandestineness. )

And nowadays? Today, the same officiers bestow in the course of identical meeting precautions to avoid the sida; yes! Gods also are to the page; they up to day.

 WHO ARE THESE GODS OR RATHER THESE SPIRITS WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE SERVICE OF MAN?
