Zé Pelintra

Zé Pilintra is much adored and respected as a spiritual entity of Afro-Brazilian origin. He fills everyone's heart with joy and good trickery. Admired in Umbanda, he is considered a humble spirit, full of goodness, patron of bars, king of nightlife, bohemian and passionate about games and disputes.

He is the lesson for the less informed that not all the unfortunate in a country's system pose some threat to society, and that we must respect and value those who, even in the face of so much difficulty, still pay with a beautiful smile the most judgmental. looks.

To better understand this spirit of solidarity, we must understand the concept of what is marginal, and what it is to be on the margins of society. Zé Pilintra as a Malandro da Umbanda, is someone who had suffered living conditions and was neglected as a human being - a scenario in which we find several people in our country - but who did not hold a grudge in his chest when he disincarnated. On the contrary, even after death he still believed in salvation and the greatest proof of this is the ever-present smile on his face, which devotion gave him a greater spiritual elevation by the strength of understanding and trust in the Divine.
