Le chant de l’enfant<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Chez les Himbas de Namibie en Afrique australe, la date de naissance d\u2019un enfant est fix\u00e9e, non pas au moment de sa venue au monde, ni \u00e0 celui de sa conception, mais d\u00e8s le jour o\u00f9 l\u2019enfant est pens\u00e9 dans l\u2019esprit de sa m\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quand une femme d\u00e9cide qu\u2019elle va avoir un enfant, elle s\u2019installe et se repose sous un arbre, et elle \u00e9coute jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019elle puisse entendre le chant de l\u2019enfant qui veut na\u00eetre. Apr\u00e8s qu\u2019elle a entendu son chant, elle revient \u00e0 l\u2019homme qui sera le p\u00e8re de l\u2019enfant pour lui enseigner. Et puis, quand ils font l\u2019amour pour le concevoir, ils chantent le chant de l’enfant afin de l\u2019inviter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une fois enceinte, la m\u00e8re enseigne le chant de son enfant aux sages-femmes et aux femmes a\u00een\u00e9es du village. Ainsi, lorsque l\u2019enfant na\u00eet, les vieilles femmes et les gens autour de lui chantent son chant pour l\u2019accueillir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quand l\u2019enfant grandit, les autres villageois apprennent son chant, qui l\u2019accompagne \u00e0 chaque \u00e9tape de sa vie. Lorsque l\u2019enfant traverse les rites de la pubert\u00e9, la communaut\u00e9 entonne son chant. Dans le mariage, les chants des mari\u00e9s sont chant\u00e9s ensemble. Et m\u00eame s\u2019il commet un crime ou un acte social aberrant, au lieu d\u2019\u00eatre rejet\u00e9, l\u2019enfant est appel\u00e9 au centre du village, les gens de la communaut\u00e9 forment un cercle autour de lui, et tout le monde chante son chant pour lui. La tribu reconna\u00eet que la correction d\u2019un comportement antisocial passe par l\u2019amour et le rappel de l\u2019identit\u00e9. Lorsqu\u2019on reconna\u00eet son chant, on n\u2019a pas envie ou besoin de faire quoi que ce soit qui nuirait \u00e0 l\u2019autre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enfin, quand l\u2019enfant est couch\u00e9 dans son lit, pr\u00eat \u00e0 mourir, tous les villageois lui chantent son chant pour l\u2019aider \u00e0 commencer son chemin vers les \u00e9toiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je ne sais pas si c’est une v\u00e9ritable tradition ou bien une l\u00e9gende. Toujours est-il que je me sens profond\u00e9ment touch\u00e9e par cette histoire, parce qu’elle r\u00e9sonne fortement avec l’esprit du chant de l’\u00e2me<\/a>. Comme cette m\u00e8re qui va chercher le chant de son enfant aupr\u00e8s d’un arbre, je me relie \u00e0 votre essence pour vous chanter les m\u00e9lodies qui vous relient \u00e0 votre \u00e2me. Je d\u00e9couvre peu \u00e0 peu l’envergure de cette disposition pr\u00e9cieuse, que je porte avec honneur et humilit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ma plus pr\u00e9cieuse r\u00e9compense est de vous savoir de plus en plus reli\u00e9\u00b7e \u00e0 votre joie. C’est pour moi la signature que vous vous rapprochez de votre \u00eatre profond, et \u00e7a, c’est un cadeau inestimable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
