Fruto de largos años de trabajo, El Monte acopia una singular indagación en cuanto a la magia, las leyendas, las tradiciones y el comportamiento místico y mental del pueblo cubano ante los cultos religiosos de origen afro. Se evoca lo que significa el monte para el negro: un lugar sagrado, engendrador de la vida y morada de sus divinidades ancestrales; pero también el sitio que guarda poderes inimaginables, capaces de ocasionar el más terrible de los maleficios.

Los orígenes de los Palos Mayombe y Kimbiza se encuentran en algunos países africanos tales como el Zaire, Angola, Congo, Sambia, Namibia y en todos los países donde se hallan las tribus Bantu. La religión de Palo se desarrolló en Cuba, Haiti y otras partes del Caribe. A mediados de 1841, el primer grupo de personas procedentes de diferentes zonas de Nigeria y de las tribus Bantu, el pueblo de Calabar fundó una sociedad. Esta sociedad se llama la sociedad Abakuá. La sociedad Abakuá da origen a los linajes de Palo Mayombe y de Palo Kimbiza. Mientras que el Palo Mayombe fue muy fuerte en Cuba, al mismo tiempo el vudú Mayombe y Kimbiza se estaban desarrollando y creciendo en Haiti. La tradición Kimbiza fue traída a Cuba por Andrés Petit Alto sacerdote y fundador que ostentaba el título de Tata Nganga Nkisi Malongo. Es una figura muy controvertida porque no sólo sacó adelante la primera casa Kimbiza sino que, también, fundó la primera sociedad de blancos en el linaje Abakuá. Fundó estas sociedades en 1863 en la ciudad de Guanabacoa, Cuba. A Andrés Petit se le llamó el Cristo de los Dolores Mayombara Kimbiza Nuncatesia. Lo cual significa que actúo en contra de los mayores de mayombe al iniciar a los blancos en las tradiciones Abakuá y Kimbiza. Por ello, fue condenado y marginado, pero su legado dejó un millar de templos Kimbiza en la Cuba de aquel tiempo. Kimbiza quiere decir superar. Kimbiza quiere decir que si tenemos fe en Dios y utilizamos todo lo que procede de la tradición y de la palabra de Dios y de las antiguas enseñanzas de los pueblos Congo y Bantú, que aprendieron a respetar a la Madre Naturaleza y a todos sus atributos, todas estas enseñanzas juntas forman un gran cúmulo de conocimientos. Kimbiza toma todo esto de las diferentes religiones espirituales que provienen de Dios para superar al mal en la vida. Al tener fe en el Todopoderoso y al creer en ti mismo, respetando las enseñanzas de tus antepasados y aplicando todas esas enseñanzas a tu vida diaria, te salvas a ti mismo, alcanzas la iluminación y además, salvas a los demás y los ayudas a encontrarse a si mismos en esta jungla de asfalto a la que llamamos el nuevo mundo. En África, esta tradición no se conoce como Palo. Esta tradición se conoce como Yimbola. Es la práctica de los chamanes africanos sólo porque en muchos de esos países, la clase dirigente es musulmana. Es por esto que los rangos en esas tradiciones, así como los saludos tales como: Sala Maleco, Maleco Sala pertenecen a las costumbres musulmanas. Éste es un saludo utilizado por los paleros de las tradiciones Kimbiza y Mayombe. La diferencia entre Mayombe y Kimbiza es que Mayombe es estrictamente congo y no está mezclado con creencias esotéricas ni espiritualismo ni catolicismo ni Ocha. Es una religión congolesa pura que venera a los antepasados mediante el caldero. Kimbiza, por otra parte, tiene mucho de mayombe, vudú, espiritualismo, esoterismo, chamanismo, catolicismo y Ocha. Aunque Kimbiza está mucho más cerca de Ocha que de Mayombe.

A comprehensive introduction to the syncretic religions developed in the Caribbean region Creolization—the coming together of diverse beliefs and practices to form new beliefs and practices—is one of the most significant phenomena in Caribbean religious history. Brought together in the crucible of the sugar plantation, Caribbean peoples drew on the variants of Christianity brought by European colonizers, as well as on African religious and healing traditions and the remnants of Amerindian practices, to fashion new systems of belief. Creole Religions of the Caribbean offers a comprehensive introduction to the syncretic religions that have developed in the region. From Vodou, Santería, Regla de Palo, the Abakuá Secret Society, and Obeah to Quimbois and Espiritismo, the volume traces the historical–cultural origins of the major Creole religions, as well as the newer traditions such as Pocomania and Rastafarianism. This second edition updates the scholarship on the religions themselves and also expands the regional considerations of the Diaspora to the U. S. Latino community who are influenced by Creole spiritual practices. Fernández Olmos and Paravisini–Gebert also take into account the increased significance of material culture—art, music, literature—and healing practices influenced by Creole religions.

Magic, always part of the occult underground in North America, has experienced a resurgence since the 1960s. Although most contemporary magical religions have come from abroad, they have found fertile ground in which to develop in North America. Who are today's believers in Witchcraft and how do they worship? Alternative spiritual paths have increased the ranks of followers dramatically, particularly among well-educated middle-class individuals. Witchcraft and Magic conveys the richness of magical religious experiences found in today's culture, covering the continent of North America and the Caribbean. These original essays survey current and historical issues pertinent to religions that incorporate magical or occult beliefs and practices, and they examine contemporary responses to these religions. The relationship between Witchcraft and Neopaganism is explored, as is their intersection with established groups practicing goddess worship. Recent years have seen the growth in New Age magic and Afro-Caribbean religions, and these developments are also addressed in this volume. All the religions covered offer adherents an alternative worldview and rituals that are aimed at helping individuals redefine themselves and make their interactions with the environment more empowered. Many modern occult religions share an absence of dogma or central authority to determine orthodoxy, and have become a contemporary experience embracing modern concerns like feminism, environmentalism, civil rights, and gay rights. Afro-Caribbean religions such as Santería, Palo, and Curanderismo, which do have a more developed dogma and authority structure, offer their followers a religion steeped in African and Hispanic traditions. Responses to the growth of magical religions have varied, from acceptance to an unfounded concern about the growth of a satanic underground. And, as magical religions have flourished, increased interest has resulted in a growing commercialization, with its threat of trivialization.
