The music, especially that which is rhythmic in nature, can help lull the mind into a more meditative, almost hypnotic state. With this type of assistance, the practitioner can let themselves be influenced more readily by outside forces, including the sounds and sensations of nature, the other practitioners, or, as they believe, spirits. The music is the bond that connects the physical world with the spiritual, and the music itself is formed as a community effort with many people participating, so even if a possession does not occur, it strengthens community bonds and brings people closer together.

Well, darling, Santeria is a religion that blends West African beliefs with Roman Catholicism, originating in Cuba.
