Abstract

This text questions our way of life from the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic in order to reflect on how we interact with other humans and non-humans. For this we have as reference Obaluayê, the Orixá of cure and disease, in dialogue with some thinkers who problematized the human experience in this current period. Therefore, it is a propositional text based on the question whether the wounds that accompany us provide other experiences in the world?
