TEMPLO GUARACY DA TERRA
A Spiritual non-profit organization that follows the Afro-Brazilian Tradition of Umbanda
closely affiliated with Templo Guaracy do Brasil.
Umbanda has its roots in West African spiritual traditions, brought to the New World during the transatlantic slave trade. In Brazil, these traditions integrated elements of Catholicism and native beliefs and practices, as they developed mainly into Candomblé and Umbanda.
There are many forms of Umbanda and the principles and practices of Umbanda vary from temple to temple. While Templo Guaracy has its own distinct philosophy, it deeply respects all forms of Umbanda and all manifestation of wisdom as contained in the different spiritual traditions around the world.
Templo Guaracy do Brasil was legally founded in 1973 by Babalorixá Carlos Buby. Currently Templo Guaracy maintains regular activities in Brazil, Europe and North America.
