Sebastião Mota De Melo
Sebastião Mota de Melo (Eirunepé, October 7, 1920 — Rio de Janeiro, January 20, 1990), also recognized as Padrinho Sebastião, was a significant religious figure in Brazil, notable for establishing the religious organization CEFLURIS, a prominent branch of Santo Daime. Biography Sebastião Mota de Melo, born in Eirunepé, Amazonas, Brazil, exhibited a strong affinity for spiritual and religious exploration from an early age. Though his formal education details are limited, his religious journey notably flourished under the mentorship of Mestre Irineu, a key figure in the Santo Daime tradition.

O Padrinho Sebastião
O, or o, is the fifteenth letter and the fourth vowel letter in the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''o'' (pronounced ), plural ''oes''. History Its graphic form has remained fairly constant from Phoenician times until today.

Proto-Sinaitic script). Its original sound value was that of a consonant, probably , the sound represented by the cognate Arabic letter ع ''ʿayn''. The use of this Phoenician letter for a vowel sound is due to the early Greek alphabets, which adopted the letter as O "omicron" to represent the vowel . The letter was adopted with this value in the Old Italic alphabets, including the early Latin alphabet. In Greek, a variation of th ...

The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
