Le saviez vous ?
Le Bwiti est un rite initiatique originaire du Gabon. C'est un vecteur de transmission de culture et un catalyseur de spiritualité. La quasi totalité des rites initiatiques au Gabon sont inspirés de celui ci.
Deux éléments clés du rite de manquent jamais: il s'agit de l'Iboga et de la torche indigène,
L'Iboga est une espèce de plante dicotyledones de la famille des Apocynaceae, sous-famille des Rauvolfioideae, qui se rencontrent en Afrique dans la forêt équatoriale. Ce sont des petits arbustes qui peuvent atteindre 6 mètres de haut.
La torche indigène est faite de résine récoltée dans les arbres de la forêt. Elle est ensuite emballée dans des écorces entourées de lianes. Elle représente le support sur lequel les maîtres initiateurs mais aussi les personnes en voie d'initiation s'appuient pour s'orienter tout au long de la ceremonie.
L'écorce de l'Iboga est râpée, et une fois ingérée permet à la personne qui la consomme de se libérer de son entendement physique afin d'entamer un voyage spirituel à la découverte de soi-même mais aussi de ses ancêtres, de son passé et de son futur.
De l'ombre à la lumière, de l'ignorance à la connaissance, de la croyance au savoir et à la spiritualité.
Si vous avez déjà tenté l'expérience partagez la nous.

A trip to Gabon isn’t complete without indulging in its vibrant street food culture 😊🇬🇦
Coupé-Coupé (from the French couper, meaning to cut or to slice) is marinated beef slow cooked over a charcoal fire.
Vendors start grilling early in the morning so as to have the local treat ready for their clientele by lunchtime

Venture out of Gabon’s magnificent forests and explore the sea.July marks the start of whale-watching season which runs until September.
Every year, humpback whales migrate from their feeding grounds in the Antarctic to mate, give birth and nurse their young in the Gulf of Guinea.
Since 2012 Gabon has been undergoing a concerted effort to promote conservation of marine habitats through its Gabon Bleu (Blue Gabon) initiative, which has led to the declaration of 27% of Gabon’s marine waters as marine protected areas 🐋

Gabon is a hub of both cultural and natural heritage. Rites such as the Ndjembe are still practised today among a number of communities. The Ndjembe is a women’s initiation ritual whose purpose is to connect initiates with their inner selves, nature, their ancestors and also, to understand their family lineage.
This World African Heritage Day we celebrate unique cultural aspects such as these in Gabon and Africa as a whole 🌍
