“Despedida: the Jíkuli rite is dedicated to one or more deceased persons to pay off their debt to Jíkuli and allow them to stop their wanderings.” (Régis Hébraud)

“The Limpia of the dead, the Despedida, the Ultimate rite for the dead is the same as for the living during a curación, except that former are dead and the latter alive.
– So you see the dead person as if he were alive, en el Sueño, he’s there, like a living person, is it the same thing?
– Yes… the same (lo mismo).”
