Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for the benefit of the Yoruba people and others who appreciate Yoruba Traditional Religion but do not know how to go about the acquisition of knowledge pertaining to it and all African Traditional Religions. This holy book is a pointer to all the 256 Odus in the Ifa literary corpus. This book is therefore written to bridge that gap. I am quite certain that this book will be of immense benefit to whosoever reads it, for this book is an exposition to African Traditional Religions, particularly the Yoruba Traditional Religion in which Ifa occupies a pride of place. This book is recommended to all lovers of knowledge, the Yoruba Traditional Religion and Ifa.

Filled with Techniques and Understandings for Beginners and Adepts alike, Iwa Pele continues to be a "Must Have" book for Western Ifa Followers to understand how and why the tradition is practiced.It is with great excitement that we welcome this second edition of what has become a classic in Yoruba literature. In this ground breaking book, Babalawo Falokun Fatunmbi continues the work of Yoruba writers such as Dr. Wande Abimbola and others in unmasking the deep cosmological and theological principles of the Yoruba people. This exposition of the theology of the Yoruba people challenges the prevailing prejudicial assumptions regarding the depth, beauty and relevance of African theological thought. Titled “Iwa Pele,” this book focuses on the indigenous African belief that ethics and spiritual growth are irrevocably linked. Written in a highly accessible manner and in a style easily assimilated by the Western mind, this great work also provides sensible direction for those wishing to embark on the spiritual path of Ifa. Each chapter provides instruction for the adept on Ifa/orisa veneration as done in the traditional manner.

Book Synopsis Sacred Odu Ifa by : Ifasoore Ifayemi Adesanya Awoyade Akanbi
Download or read book Sacred Odu Ifa written by Ifasoore Ifayemi Adesanya Awoyade Akanbi and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a Contextual Reference Guide that provides a brief synopsis of the overall energy of the Odu Ifa. It has been compiled based on my in-depth research in the written literature and guidance provided by established and competent Babalawo and Awo. It is comprised of the descriptive person-hood of the Sacred verses as well as some taboos and sacrifices. This Contextual Reference Guide is in no way exhaustive and should be used coupled with information and research primarily focused on the rituals, medicines, and sacrifices of the Odu Ifa. Future publications related to this Contextual Reference Guide may include specific rituals, medicines, and sacrifices however they will come with further research and of course the guidance of well-established and competent Babalawo', Iyanifa' and Awo'. This book has been written in the hopes that it will assist those born in the western diaspora to contextualize and digest the information presented in the original texts of the sacred Scriptures of Odu Ifa. Many of us rightfully travel to Nigeria for our initiations however the Western lifestyle does not often provide the time in which it would take to study under our Elders long enough to gather a comprehensive understanding of these verses. This book is my attempt to assist us with this work. I pray that it be accepted by my Elders and respected by my colleagues in Ifa. As an American Iyanifa, it is with respect for this tradition that I have undertaken this heavy and very important task and I have not done so alone. I would like to give thanks to those Priests that have contributed their knowledge and wisdom to my work. Thank you and enjoy.

Both classic and Western interpretations by Dr. Epega and American babalawo Philip Neimark clearly illuminate each translation, setting the context for using and understanding the power of Ifa wisdom in modern life.

In this accessible introduction, Baba Ifa Karade provides an overview of the Yoruba tradition and its influence in the West. He describes the sixteen Orisha, or spirit gods, and shows us how to work with divination, use the energy centers of the body to internalize the teachings of Yoruba, and create a sacred place of worship.
