In Chiapas, the j’iloletik heal with songs the illnesses that come from different attacks of the external world on the human person: envy, jealousy, hungry spirits, colonial writings. For the Tsotils, human nature is intermingled with the nature of other non-human species. The shamans do not so much heal individuals as people with multiple and yet unified identities. To do this, they establish ritual dialogues with invisible beings. From their mouths emanate the words of different enunciators: those of the sacred mountain and of local protective entities, but also those of the suffering people as well as those of the j’iloletik themselves. They thus offer their community a supportive and emancipating language to face the precariousness of human existence, doubts, and psychic conflicts, and transmit a symbolic narrative on the illness that accompanies and envelops the people in a collective process of healing.
