O que é: Em muitos terreiros, o transe ritual é entendido como manifestação legítima de presença sagrada.

Como a religião entende: Ele não é reduzido internamente a espetáculo ou descontrole, mas inserido em contexto litúrgico, disciplinado por aprendizado, ritmo, hierarquia e reconhecimento comunitário.

Base e contexto: A música, a dança, o xirê e a relação iniciática participam desse fenômeno.

Debates e variações: A interpretação do transe varia entre casas e também em análises externas psicológicas, antropológicas e teológicas.
