Babalu Aye : ウィキペディア英語版
Babalú-Ayé

Babalú-Ayé is an Orisha strongly associated with infectious disease and healing. The name Babalú-Ayé translates as “Father, lord of the Earth”〔Idowu 1962:95〕 and points to the authority this orisha exercises on all things earthly, including the body, wealth, and physical possessions. In West Africa, he was strongly associated with epidemics of smallpox, leprosy, influenza, ebola, and HIV/AIDS.〔Thompson 1993:216〕 Although strongly associated with illness and disease, Babalú-Ayé is also the spirit that cures these ailments. Both feared and loved, Babalú-Ayé is sometimes referred to as the “Wrath of the supreme god” because he punishes people for their transgressions.〔Thompson 1993:217〕 People hold Babalú-Ayé in great respect and avoid calling his actual name, because they do not wish to invoke epidemics.〔Idowu 1962:97〕
His worship is widely associated with the Earth itself, and his shrines are often separated from commonly travelled areas. His ritual tools include a ritual broom for purification,〔McKenzie 1997:70〕 a covered terra-cotta vessel, and abundant cowry shells.〔Brown 2003:262-63〕 Usually considered hobbled by disease, he universally takes grains as offerings.〔Thompson 1993:216〕
