In Arabic, the family of words Amin, Iman or imam, imana designate faith, trust, security. This word is also present in the Swahili language (Kenya, Tanzania, East Congo Kinshasa) in the form imani: trust. "The term Imana is not the equivalent of God-Goddess which is a Western vision of divinity. Indeed,: "the term "imana" does not designate above all a personal being that should be honored and implored, but a diffuse fluid that should be captured." In other words, Imana is a neutral vital force that manifests itself in the inner cosmos of each living being." ¹ Imana, by Michel Darlin Johancy is a musical, symphonic and spiritual journey through three geographies: an inner geography of meditation, a cultural identity journey and an artistic musical stroll. These three itineraries unfold in Haitian spaces. This symphonic and spiritual journey takes place in 10 stages or 10 movements.
