Djab, Djinn, Devil, Demon...what’s in a word?

WHO ARE THEY?

I have always been fascinated with the Djab and similar spirits.

The word “Djab” is an interesting one. I first heard of it as part of the lore of Haitian Vodou. Some say that the Creole word is derived from the French word diable (meaning “devil”). Others say it is related to the Arabic word “Djinn” or “Genie,” like the Genie in Aladdin’s Lamp! I have even found it in Bali, where the original culture of Bali is called “djaba, “ meaning “outsiders.” (Oddly enough, 90% of the people of Bali are called djaba, which means these “outsiders” are really “insiders,” but were branded low-caste by the descendants of the invading Hindu-Javanese invaders of Madjapahit, conquerors of the island in the 14th century.)

In many places throughout the world, the original indigenous people are often labeled “low caste” or “outsiders” or such, by the invading cultures. Also, the Spirits that they work with, the Spirits of their ancient traditions, are often called “devils” by the invading forces’ religion. As the old saying goes, “The gods of the old religion become the devils of the new religion.”

Otherkin beings (such as faeries, elves, gnomes, etc.) are also called “devils” or “demons” by the prevailing Christian, Islamic, or Buddhist religions. In some cases, these Otherkin beings are said to be spirits; in other cases, they are said to be the actual Indigenous people of a place who have been able to “shift” into another dimension, or to merge with the natural elements of air, water, fire, or earth. The “faeries” of Northern Europe, for instance, have a lot in common with the earliest known inhabitants of those areas.

In the spiritual tradition of Vodou, the main spirits are called Lwa (or Loa). Sometimes Lwa (or Loa) are called “Djab”:

    “With origins in shamanism, Vodou clearly involves connection with spiritual forces and these are understood as being of three primary types; the Loa (the most powerful of the spirits), Gede (spirits of the ancestors) and Djab(nature spirits). Connection is made with these spirits, sometimes involving complete possession, and the shaman can receive power (known as ashé) from the djabs and spiritual gifts from the loa.”
    (Neil Hocking)

    “A Lwa can be referred to as a djab when he or she is working in an aggressive manner. But more usually, when one talks about a djab , one is speaking of a personal spirit. This is a spirit that belongs to a specific person. Oftentimes, the way this relationship is struck up between the person and the djab is a magickal contract. Djabs are more about magick and less about spirituality. They work to get rid of enemies, increase one's wealth, and to create other material successes. Djab are fast to punish if their services are not correctly attended to.”
    (Houngan Hector)

Houngan Hector has a Djab which he inherited through his family line. He writes of the Djab here:

http://www.ezilikonnen.com/services/empowerment/

In this description, Hector’s Djab (Siete Puntas) has a signature move where she “balances on the tip of a machete.” This is something that reminds me of many shamanic practices in many cultures. For instance, here is a video about the South Korean shamans who “dance on knives”:

http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/southkorea_knifedancing

These feats are performed to prove to the people (including the shaman) that there is a change in dimensional focus, so much so that the rules of the 3rd dimension are blurred.

Another interesting word is the Arabic word "Djinn." Sometimes spelled "Jinn;" the word "Genie" is related to it. From my research, I have concluded that these Djab/Djinn/Genies are part of an ancient race that actively engages (or embodies) the energy of Nature, especially in the form of fire/heat or wind/air. In that, they are part-elemental, part shape-shifter

    "I am a genie. You may wonder what that really means. . .Well, first of all, I am not from or of your world. I live in a dimension of fire and light. I am basically a fire spirit. Just so you know, we genies are alive. We don't experience life as you do, but we are living, thinking creatures.

    "You humans take us genies for granted. Most of you have very little idea of the tremendous service that we provide for your kind. Everything in your world that is of a fiery or electrical nature is administrated by a genie or djinn assigned to that function. Without us, your world as you know it would cease to exist. Even the very sun that is the source of life and nourishment for your planet is a mighty Djinn."

    –from “1, 2, 3, Your Wish is Granted” by Genie (through Max Rose)

I like Hillary Raimo's definition: "A djinn is a supernatural creature which occupies a parallel world to that of mankind." In some cases, a Djab/Djinn/Genie can move from one dimension to another, especially if a container is used for the spirit to occupy.

So, from where do these Djab, Djinn, demons, devils come? Ancient Arabic writings speak of a race of beings named Jinn or Jan (Jinnee m., Jinniyeh f. sing.), which were created and occupied the earth several thousand years before Adam. They seem much like the Fairy, or Peri, race described in European folklore, even to their abhorrence of iron. They know how to merge with the natural world and often become guardians of certain places:

    "The chief abode of the Jinn of both kinds is the Mountains of Kaf. But they also are dispersed through the earth, and they occasionally take up their residence in baths, wells, latrinae, ovens, and. ruined houses. They also frequent the sea and rivers, cross-roads, and market-places. They ascend at times to the confines of the lowest heaven, and by listening there to the conversation of the angels, they obtain some knowledge of futurity, which they impart to those men who, by means of talismans or magic arts, have been able to reduce them to obedience."

    http://sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/tfm/tfm006.htm

In the limestone caves of Bode near Trouin in the south of Haiti, a Djab named Met Set Joune, Master of the Seven Days, is believed to reside. These kinds of spirits seem to like to stay in enclosures, and also to mix with others in the different dimensions. They like to inhabit places that are “liminal,” that is, places that is “in between.” In this way they can reach out and have contact with the human world, and also be able to retreat into their own “home” dimension.

In modern times, some postulate that there was an elder-race that colonized Earth before humans evolved, and that this race may have joined with the natural elements in order to live in the 4th dimensional world, or in a parallel dimension to our own.

It is possible that this race had some relations with humans down the line, resulting in families that have Djab/Djinn/Faeries in their ancestral pool. But since the elder race has a much longer life span than modern humanity, the Being stays with the family, adding its Power to that of its descendants, for a long long time.

More than anything, a Djab is a magickal being. It can shapeshift, it can move between dimensions, and it can act invisibly to change reality. But in its natural (WILD) state, it simply IS.

In Witch families throughout the world, spirits can become attached to the family and can be passed down through the family line. Sometimes these spirits are called “Faeries” or other kinds of elemental entities. There are families that are said to have Faeries in their Ancestral Family Tree. I know one American Witch who has a “spirit dog” who guards her home and possessions from any kind of harm. The dog has come with her family from Europe and has been with the family for many generations. It seems to me that the Djab are similar kinds of entities.

Djabs are called “Wild” Spirits. What does this mean, this “wildness”? Is it related to the concept of “wilderness”?

    “Wilderness then means 'self-willed-land' or 'self-willed-place' with an emphasis upon its own intrinsic volition... This 'willed' conception is itself in opposition to the controlled and ordered environment, which is characteristic of the notion of civilization. While control, order, domination and management are true of civilization and domestication, they are not essentials of primal culture... Nature worship evidences a traditional theme of sacred natural places, free from desecration by humans and their technology. Such sacred places were wilderness in the deepest sense; they were imbued with will- force, - willed, willful, uncontrollable - and with spirit. Thus, they held about them a sacred mystery - a numinous presence. It is from this tradition that the 'will-of the-land' - wilderness - concept emerges.” ( Jay Hansford C. Vest.)

The Djab are often described as “hot spirited” and “strong-willed;” and even powerful Magicians find them “difficult to control.” They are said to made of “spirit fire” (a kind of electro-magnetic energy) and they love spicy food, crazy rhythms, gunpowder and explosions, dangerous and awe-inspiring feats, like sitting on the edge of a sharp saber, eating glass, walking on hot coals, etc. Perhaps they are expressing the hot “center of the Earth” which spews forth in volcanoes, ultimately creating our islands and continents. Like the “wands” in the Tarot deck, they are full of passion and desire, dynamic force, ambitions, creativity, vitality, self-development, growth, and perception. When out of balance, however, they can express restlessness, anger, violence, pride, mischief, disruption and stubborness.

The Vodou Lwa most likely to be called "Djab" are the Petro Lwa. This is said because of their “fierce” and very individualistic natures. These are the group of Lwa who were the catalysts for the Revolution in which the slaves liberated themselves from their captors in Haiti. Obviously, the Revolutionaries were empowered by “WILD” spirits because the quality of WILDNESS cannot be caged or captured. Wildness contains a certain kind of Power that is not contained in “civilization.” It’s a power that is connected to “ALIVENESS” and to “FREEDOM.”

It seems to me that the Petro Lwa empowered the slaves to rise up because of their connection to the WILD aspects of Nature....wind, rain, lightning, wild predatory animals, darkness of the night....and their ability to rise to a challenge! It has also be suggested, notably by Maya Deren, that the Petro Lwa may have been connected to the Native American sprits of the island. These indigenous Spirits were surely willing to help kick out the slave-masters!

In modern times, most “troublesome” spirits, if recognized, are candidates for the “Exorcism” of the established religions. However, more ancient traditions often do their best to “strike a bargain” with the spirit, in order to work together for some kind of goal, usually to help and heal.

    "If not channeled, electricity can go where it pleases." (Rob King)

So, how can one work with WILD spirits (Djab) in a positive way? Obviously, it’s going to take a lot of work and a lot of knowledge and wisdom. Supposedly, King Solomon (of Biblical fame) used Djabs to build his Temple because he was able to control them by means of a magical Ring. My own intuition, however, tells me that a magical Ring would not be enough to get the Djab/Djinn to do all the things that Solomon wanted them to do. Something tells me that Solomon respected their many talents and abilities.

    According to another story, Solomon summoned the Djinn to his crystal-paved palace, where they sat at tables made of iron. (In folklore, iron weakens supernatural entities.) The Qur’an tells how the king made them work at building palaces, making carpets, and creating ponds, statues and gardens. Whenever Solomon wanted to travel to faraway places, the djinn carried him on their backs. (Rosemary Ellen Guiley)

That sounds to me that the Djab/Djinn had great skills and technologies. Yet, for some reason, the Iron (and some add Copper) somehow made them subservient. There are also stories of the Devil being pained by Iron (see the story of St. Dunstan below). This puzzles me.

    One reputed origin of the tradition of lucky horseshoes is the story of Saint Dunstan and the Devil. Dunstan, who would become the Archbishop of Canterbury in AD 959, was a blacksmith by trade. The story relates that he once nailed a horseshoe to the Devil's hoof when he was asked to reshoe the Devil's horse. This caused the Devil great pain, and Dunstan only agreed to remove the shoe and release the Devil after the Devil promised never to enter a place where a horseshoe is hung over the door. (Edward G. Flight)

For me, this speaks of a cultural difference between an Ancient Culture (the Djab/Djinn/Devil) and a New Invasive Culture...an encounter between Bronze Age groups being invaded by Iron Age groups.

Yes, I believe that the Djab/Djinn/Devils consider US the invaders! Much like the spirits of the Aborigines and other indigenous peoples are said to “haunt” the old sacred places....

    "And when the last red man shall have perished from the earth and his memory among white men shall have become a myth, these shores shall swarm with the invisible dead of my tribe, and when your children's children shall think themselves alone in the field, the store, the shop, upon the highway or in the silence of the woods, they will not be alone."

    "The white man will never be alone. Let him be just and kindly deal with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead - I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds."

    - Chief Seattle, 1854

FREE SPIRITS

Ancient Shamans and Magicians learned to trap the power of the Wild Spirit into different objects....statues, rings, bottles, even lamps! How could they entrap such a Wild Spirit? Well, Djabs have one soft spot—they love to “make deals.” And sometimes, humans can be trickier than even Djabs! (But, usually, not for long! After all, Djabs can outlive humans!)

In his series of Mythadventures books, Robert Aspirin wrote of a world inhabited by interdimensional travellers. One of his main characters is a “demon” which he explains “is slang for Dimension Traveler.” One of the dimensions is called “Deva,” and its denizens “Deveels.”

    “Merchant capital of the dimensions. Inhabited by the Deveels, traders supreme. As Aahz puts it, ‘If you think you've gotten a good deal from a Deveel, first count your fingers, then your limbs, then your relatives.’ The Bazaar on Deva is a dimension-wide round-the-clock flea market which sells every conceivable magikal device and artifact.”

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythAdventures

The Jeannie (of the 1960s TV show “I dream of Jeannie”) could be considered a Djab! Of course, if you’ve watched this show at all, you know that Jeannie was able to manipulate things to her own advantage, more often then not!

Anne Rice wrote a kind of “autobiography of a Genii” in her book “Servant of the Bones.” Throughout the novel, Azriel (the Genie) is struggling to understand whether he is a ghost, a demon, or an angel. He is trying to understand why his god has denied him the Stairway to Heaven by allowing him to be made into an immortal spirit who is bound to the gold-encased bones of his mortal body. As a genie, he must obey the Master of those bones (whoever has them at the moment) and become the Master's Servant of good or evil. Thus the title, Servant of the Bones.

In Sarangerel’s book Chosen by the Spirits, she wrote of some spirit entities which are “quite strong and difficult to overcome in the process of healing or other ritual.” She says:

    “Although some are hostile and cannot be changed, at times they can be ‘mastered,’ and redirected to become a shamanic spirit helper.’” She tells us, “You will be able to decide for yourself whether a spirit is worth mastering.”

In Vodou and also in the East African Zar ceremony, Djab spirits are fed, given honor with drumming and dancing and special songs. Sometimes, special scents (perfumes or incense) are offered. The spirits, as they come in to the person who is embodying them, are greeted with their own special clothes and effects, decorated and given much praise. An animal is usually sacrificed to them, and those who are possessed also partake of the animal. This special respect usually results in an acknowledgement by the Djab that it is being treated well, and this results in healing for the human to whom it comes. As long as the Djab is given its due, it will work with the human in whatever way the human needs it.

In these ceremonies, a person who is magnified (“possessed”) by a Djab is given a chance to be “wild,” to act in a way that would be frowned upon in regular social circumstances. These ceremonies can be a chance to “blow off some steam,” and let the unconscious play its emotions through the body. These ceremonies take place within socially proscribed boundaries and give the participants a great tension-release from their stressful lives, while they are watched over by caring community members!

It is interesting that the Zar and other similar ceremonies happen in societies where certain groups of people have tremendous power-over other groups. These ceremonies function as a kind of “pressure valve” to help the oppressed group cope with living everyday under such domination. The “hot spirits” who possess the participants are often angry, confused, traumatized, lashing out in an emotional way. The participants can express their negative emotions in a safe place until they are exhausted and, after resting, can be able to function again in a calm way.

This reminds me of the method given by Tibetan Buddhist Lama Tsultrim Allione, in her book “Feeding Your Demons: Ancient Wisdom for Resolving Inner Conflict.” Allione based her book on the Chöd lineage of Machig Labdrön. In this view, the Demons and other “wild spirits” are not outside of us, but within us! She writes:

    “Do not be fooled by the idea that demons are external to us. We are seeing our own mind projected in living color all around us. Train yourself to see things this way. Generate love and compassion toward whatever demon appears—without or within. When you finally understand from your own experience that there is no need to cater to the concerns of the ego, you will no longer cling to hopes or fears, or gods and demons. You will see that the source of your pain is clinging to your ego. You will rest in the limitless expanse of awareness—your true home. And you will be free.”

Freedom is the goal, always, for the human being. Keeping other humans or other entities enslaved is NOT freedom, neither for the slave nor the slaveholder. Of course, true freedom comes with responsibility. Freedom is about making choices, and one choice we can make is to discover our demons, name them, and then feed them with gentle compassion. When we do this, they are liberated, and are transformed into our Allies and Helpers in the Spirit World. In other words, conflictive emotions are (with love and patience) transformed into peaceful emotions.

As we humans look toward the future, we realize that we need a NEW RELATIONSHIP with Nature, including our own “human nature.” Instead of conquering and subduing Wild Nature (and Nature Spirits), modern humans are beginning to realize that it is better to work in HARMONY with Nature.....because, after all, Nature cannot really be conquered or subdued. That includes humans, of course, as we are also part of Nature!

MATURING INTO ADULT SPIRITUALITY

In her book “Initiation”, Elizabeth Jenkins speaks of her interaction with an Altomisayoq (a Priest of the Spirits in Peru) by the name of Ricardo. Ricardo was a 3rd-level priest in that system. He worked with the “Apu” (spirits much like the Lwa and Djab of Vodou).

Elizabeth watched Ricardo as he did whatever the Apu commanded him to do, including corporal punishment of a child and other things that Elizabeth felt quite uneasy about! As someone who was trained to deal with dysfunctional families, she recognized the signs of dysfunction and finally realized:

    “'Of course!’ I nearly yelled out loud with the impact of the sudden realization. Instinctively, it had bothered me from the very beginning that Ricardo’s Apus told everyone what to do. But now, I understood my discomfort on all levels, psychologically, esoterically, and in my gut. You simply cannot let children run the zoo.

    “As a therapist I had observed this family pattern frequently. If the children in a family are given too much power the results are disastrous, because the parents’ power is weakened and the family system collapses. Similarly, if the children are ignored or mistreated, the family as a whole suffers when the child fails, or acts out in school. I postulated that undoubtedly this pattern must hold true for our own UNCONSCIOUS IMPULSES as well.

    “If we are directed by our lower impulses, chaos results; but if those same impulses are repressed, we lose our life force. Perhaps the TRICK is to make sure one’s life force is guided and channeled by a firm, directing Consciousness.

    “The forces of nature...could not be in charge. The evolved human Consciousness was meant to direct and guide these forces of nature. Historically, we had once been dominated by nature, at the mercy of its overwhelming power. Then, Western society tried to dominate or repress nature in response to the feeling of helplessness. This created a society of lifeless people afraid of their bodies and their own spontaneous impulses. But neither extreme worked. What was needed was a strong, guiding hand that allowed the power of the unconscious to be used and channeled constructively.”

    –Elizabeth B. Jenkins, “Initiation (Return of the Inka)”

Of course these Djab are not bad or evil—they are simply (like powerful Children) in a role that is inappropriate. They are akin to what Starhawk calls our “Younger Self” (our "inner child" - our playful, unconscious self which responds to the use of symbols). Children and our “Younger self” function very much in the Right Brain mode of being, connected with All-That-Is, and very free. Their consciousness is unified with the Natural world and everything around them. Their intuition and psychic powers are prodigious. But they will often yearn for some sort of Structure and will rejoice when they get a job to do that challenges them, and helps them to grow. They function best when they are given “boundaries” within which to channel their energies.

As Juan Nunez del Prado (a Quechua 4th-level Priest) told Elizabeth:

"At the 3rd level, the Apu's are seen as punishing. But do not confuse the master with the path. A Priest's Apu's can only appear AS HIS LEVEL PERMITS. The transition from the 3rd to the 4th level is very important. At the 3rd level, the initiate encounters the invisible world and the forces there are experienced as frightening, indeed terrifying. You must learn to wrestle with them; you must learn to fight and conquer—your own fear. If not, you remain forever at the mercy of it.

"The 4th level is a completely different state of mind. You become free, the Apu's become your friends, and you learn to work in harmony with the invisible world. My Apu's are sweet, charming. According to the prophecies, the transition from 3rd to the 4th level is the MOST IMPORTANT OCCURRENCE OF THIS TIME!"

I believe this is the key. We are in a very pivotal time. We have come here in order to help the world make this transition. To do that, we must conquer our own fear and come out on the other side. It's not a one-time, cut-and-dried thing. It's a process. It's a maturing process. It involves humans and ALL OTHER BEINGS ON THIS PLANET.

We must “stand up” with courage, and become Spiritual Adults, developing a firm, directing Consciousness which holds and centers our own Power. We must not let the Djab or anybody else tell us what to do, or drain our energy with their demands. We must make our own decisions, because we were not born for anybody else, we were born for ourselves.

The energy of the Child Nature Spirit (by whatever name we choose to call it) is precious and can give a person or a group/family/tribe a great source of Creativity and Magic, Psychic power and Healing. It can bring us strength through our connection with Nature and with the Elements. But like any Spirited Child, it needs a strong guiding hand that allows the power of the Unconscious to be used and channeled constructively.

In addition, we need to develop a relationship with our own Guiding Star, our Angel, and our Spiritual Guides. By doing this, we will have our Divine Self backing us up, as we guide our own Inner-Child to work for the good of all, according to free will.

    “The Inka prophecies speak of this time period in history as a Time of Transformation. We in the Andes called it the TARIPAY PACHA (‘Age of Meeting Ourselves Again’). This is a time when human beings must really begin to work together. This is also a time when miraculous occurrences can and must take place.

    “This time period represents a ‘critical period’ in the development of human collective consciousness. We must be able to leave fear behind and learn to share our cultural gifts and achievements.”

It is about becoming a Spiritual Adult:

    “Achieving this (adult) level means that you can enter a synagogue, a Hindu temple, a Buddhist temple, or an Andean cave with the same feeling of sacred in your heart. The capacity to do this indicates someone who can see, feel, and recognize the sacred energy of people, places or objects, directly. They are able to see through the symbol, beyond it, moving into direct energetic perception. This is the real meaning of being a Mystical Seer.

    “When you move into the (adult) level, you become one with PACHAMAMA (the Earth). This means that your energy bubble literally resonates with the spirit of the entire earth. At that point in your development, you can no longer be under the tutelage of an APU, but you must come under the tutelage of a being from the HANAQ PACHA (the dimension of the Stars).”

Elizabeth also realized that, at the child-level or even the rebellious teenage level, the fearsome and punishing God of the Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition system was a lot like Ricardo’s Apu—a frightening supernatural being that punished and rewarded. But this was related only to the child-or-teenage level of human spiritual development! At the Adult level we learn to face down any fear of authority and develop a more responsible and mature relationship to it! We can finally take up our own true AUTHOR-ity–becoming the AUTHOR of our own life--and live in strength, truth, and compassion. . . as well as love, joy and peace.

So can we also warmly embrace the Child Nature Spirits (including our own Inner-Child), and Nature itself, and acknowledge our family relationship, as we resonate with our dear Earth, and become united as a Planet. Then, we can each connect with our Guiding Star, and bring this Star Knowledge to the Earth plane. As we acknowledge our family relationship with the great Star Nations, we will truly be able to take our place as Spiritual Adults in the Cosmos. And this kind of Spiritual Adult is not dour, glum or grim (although seriousness is called for, from time to time). A true Spiritual Adult’s defining characteristic is JOY.

    Yes, it is worth it to seek spiritual adulthood just as we need to value adulthood in our cultural lives. Who among us would not like to live our lives from a place of joy and peace?

    The outer world of the spiritually-awake is often pretty much like anyone else’s, although one might perceive a little more thought and preparation. The inner world is where the difference lies. Joy and peace form the foundation and many other qualities are built from there. Qualities such as gratitude, love, wisdom, kindness, and magnanimity underpin the actions of the spiritual adult.

    There was a time when we thought that only gurus, high-priests and priestesses, prophets, and avatars could live such lives. Then what would be the purpose? Is it not more important than ever that as many of us as possible learn to live from a place of joy and peace?

    When the time comes that we can see spiritual adulthood as attainable in this lifetime, when we can conceive of spiritual maturity as a natural state, then we will put aside the need to be shepherded like sheep or parented as children for our entire lives. We will not need to become teachers, father and mother figures to everyone we meet, or become inflated with a false sense of privilege. We will instead seek to learn and grow to adulthood so that we can take our rightful place in our families, communities, and societies. We will know that adulthood is normal and feel no need to be anything other than creative, joyful, and peaceful human beings.
