Vodún Meditations Living the Joy of Your Inner Divinity © 2015-2025

Vodún Meditations, or ߣߎߘߐ߮ߝ ߣߌߟߍߛ Sɛlìn Vodún, in the Aja (commonly known as Fɔ̀n) language of Southern Benin Republic, is a set of daily affirmations and proverbs meant for our functional use not only for those within the Vodún Mãwùfɛnu (Afrikan Vodún) tradition, but all Mãwùfɛnumeto (Afrikans or so called “Black” people) of good character trying to live a beautiful life. Vodún Meditations is the product of the personal experiences and observations of the Àxɔ́sú Àgèlògbàgàn Agbɔvi I and how he saw that he could assist everyday people in their Vodún path – Vodún being life itself.

This work has 75 lŏ (proverbs) and 75 gblŏnnŭ (affirmations). The proverbs included are from ancient Ajã with translation and commentary by the àxɔ́sú (the author). The affirmations or meditations appearing on the opposite page are from the àxɔ́sú himself; his experiences and observations. They are replete with high level guidance rooted in ancient Vodún teachings, yet fit for everyday living. Each affirmation is assisted with what we call a dɛxixò action. Dɛxixò is the ritualistic act of giving offerings and prayers to the deities and ancestors. This is a small, yet effective offering to the ancestors, deity (or deities) and/or to the divinity of self to move the energy being affirmed.
