I didn't know any vodoun personally. can't say I have ever heard the term vodoun before. My intention was not to offend anyone but to show the power that a hougan or mambo does understand the power of the mind. Your request for me to get my terms right is duly noted. Chalk it up to a lack of education, not my heart. :) Thank you for letting me know that Rosie. I didn’t know any vodoun personally. can’t say I have ever heard the term vodoun before.

A Vodoun spiritual leader is either a priest or "houngan" or a priestess "mambo". Please get your terms right. First of all, a practioner of Vodoun would find the term “witch doctor” insulting.

You are so right about the ancients. they understood the mind and how it worked with the body. Western medicine and science has tried to separate the two. We have to view our existence from a holistic point of view, that being mind, body and soul as a unit. Hi Sudeep, thank you for stopping by hope to see you again.

I thought was important to convey that beliefs are powerful no matter what they are or who you might believe. A witchdoctor is extreme, but it is not different than how be believe in medical doctors.
