What does crying represent in the mystical-spiritual life? Can weeping have an ontotheological dimension? Can Jesus' weeping speak to us intimately? Whatever the ethnic community, whatever the country, whatever the religion, death makes us weep. But it's the way we weep that differs, according to culture and country. For the Punu, mourning the dead is an ontotheological expression, and thus a space where being meets founding ontology. It's a space where Punu mourners implore the Divine to gather up the soul of the deceased during funeral wakes, with their speaking tears of lamentation and supplication. Christian Dior MOULOUNGUI, through a transcendental analysis of weeping, shows that crying sublimates the tragedy of our ordinary misfortunes and connects us with God. In this intimate state, where tears liberate us from the weight of sadness, pain and sin, our consciousness connects with Eternity and splits off from the outside world. Crying shapes us, and elevates us to the highest spiritual spheres.
