Book Synopsis THE 256 ODU DE IFA CUBAN AND TRADITIONAL VOL. 4 Ogbe Obara-Ogbe Okanran by : MARCELO MADAN
Download or read book THE 256 ODU DE IFA CUBAN AND TRADITIONAL VOL. 4 Ogbe Obara-Ogbe Okanran written by MARCELO MADAN and published by Madan Orunmila Edition Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-19 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These Treatises of the Odu of Ifá in volumes, are very complete, since in addition to dealing with the Afro-Cuban Odu of Ifá, they also contain treatises of Traditional African Ifá. Both bring together thousands of Pataki or Stories, thousands of Eboses and works, which will make it easier for you to deepen your study and resolve any situation that arises in the religious field of consulting the Ifá oracle. The Synthesis of the Treaties of the Odu of Ifá, already published by me previously, is nothing more than, as its name indicates, a synthesis of these treaties, whose objective was always to support to the Babalawo as a handy reminder, starting from the base, that these issues have been studied and deepened before. For these reasons, it is highly recommended to have this valuable information in your library. We have grouped only two Odu in each volume, to facilitate their acquisition.

Book Synopsis What Gender is Motherhood? by : Oyèrónkẹ́ Oyěwùmí
Download or read book What Gender is Motherhood? written by Oyèrónkẹ́ Oyěwùmí and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Oyěwùmí extends her path-breaking thesis that in Yorùbá society, construction of gender is a colonial development since the culture exhibited no gender divisions in its original form. Taking seriously indigenous modes and categories of knowledge, she applies her finding of a non-gendered ontology to the social institutions of Ifá, motherhood, marriage, family and naming practices. Oyěwùmí insists that contemporary assertions of male dominance must be understood, in part, as the work of local intellectuals who took marching orders from Euro/American mentors and colleagues. In exposing the depth of the coloniality of power, Oyěwùmí challenges us to look at the worlds we inhabit, anew.
Download or read book Egun written by Awo Fá'Lokun Fatunmbi and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-11-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the first steps in our spiritual journey is the relationship with Egun. We setup an ancestor alter and faithfully make offerings and discuss our daily happenings, wishes, needs, and dreams. All too often through lack of knowledge from our elders, neglect or lack of communication the door to ancestor communication stays shut. Not because of anything we have done, but what we have not done.We need to open the door into that previously forbidden realm. Know and trust, without fear, a communication with our ancestors... not just a one way monologue, but that two way dialogue, that lets you have a vehicle for knowledge, healing, and informed advice from our long forgotten ancestors.Baba Falokun provides the tools necessary to kick that door open; by using Oriki we can open a door to a level of communication not previously available.As we follow the guide and chant the Oriki for the ancestors to mount the medium, we begin to hear the voices of the past repeating the words with you. Welcome them, the words are thousands of years old and still used today.This is a tool that opens the portals of another dimension. Use them, our ancestors walk with us; don't lose the opportunity to receive a communication. These are a must for anyone doing or wishing to communicate with the other side.
Book Synopsis Osun across the Waters by : Joseph M. Murphy
Download or read book Osun across the Waters written by Joseph M. Murphy and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2001-10-09 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ã’sun is a brilliant deity whose imagery and worldwide devotion demand broad and deep scholarly reflection. Contributors to the ground-breaking Africa's Ogun, edited by Sandra Barnes (Indiana University Press, 1997), explored the complex nature of Ogun, the orisa who transforms life through iron and technology. Ã’sun across the Waters continues this exploration of Yoruba religion by documenting Ã’sun religion. Ã’sun presents a dynamic example of the resilience and renewed importance of traditional Yoruba images in negotiating spiritual experience, social identity, and political power in contemporary Africa and the African diaspora. The 17 contributors to Ã’sun across the Waters delineate the special dimensions of Ã’sun religion as it appears through multiple disciplines in multiple cultural contexts. Tracing the extent of Ã’sun traditions takes us across the waters and back again. Ã’sun traditions continue to grow and change as they flow and return from their sources in Africa and the Americas.

Book Synopsis The Secrets of Afro-Cuban Divination by : Ócha'ni Lele
Download or read book The Secrets of Afro-Cuban Divination written by Ócha'ni Lele and published by Destiny Books. This book was released on 2000-09-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to provide complete, specific instructions on casting the Diloggún, the cowrie-shell oracle of the Orishas. • Provides step-by-step instructions never before published, detailing requirements and procedure for casting the Diloggún. • Includes a detailed “mojuba” or prayer used to awaken the Orishas (spirit entities) for divination. • Devotes an entire chapter to each of the twelve basic Odu (random patterns in which the sixteen shells fall), providing ritual mechanics and oracular meanings for all possible castings. The Afro-Cuban faith, known to outsiders as Santeria and to adherents as Las Reglas de Ocha de Los Lucumi, is not a static religion but a living conduit of energy for connecting the spirit world to our own. It came to the New World with the slave trade where it has evolved in response to the surrounding culture. For adherents of Lucumi, the Diloggún is the most important focus of worship: the sacred shells reveal the forces at play in an adherent's life. These forces are redefined and placated by the Orisha priest, who makes direct contact with the spirit world in an effort to help the adherent evolve. While many books have been published about Santeria, The Secrets of Afro-Cuban Divination is the first to provide complete information on how to cast the Diloggún, including opening, reading, and closing the oracle, and how to give a comprehensive reading. With a detailed discussion about why each prayer is offered and insight into the metaphysical core of the religion, this book will bring those seeking the wisdom of the Diloggún closer to the living Orishas than they have ever been.
Book Synopsis Meister Eckhart's Book of the Heart by : Jon M. Sweeney
Download or read book Meister Eckhart's Book of the Heart written by Jon M. Sweeney and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meister Eckhart (1260 -1328) was a priest, a mystic, and nearly a heretic (he died before the Church court's verdict). In the 20th century, the Roman Catholic Church rehabilitated him and the late Pope John Paul II spoke of his work with fondness. However, what makes him of particular interest is the fact that he has influenced a wide range of spiritual teachers and mystics both inside and outside the Christian tradition. Erich Fromm, Eckhart Tolle, Richard Rohr, D. T. Suzuki, and Rudolf Steiner have all credited Eckhart as being an important influence on their thought. In addition, his work has influenced the development of 20th century American Buddhism and the Theosophical tradition. Eckhart wrote at a time - much like our own - when society appeared to be coming apart at the seams. In the midst of all that chaos and uncertainty, he captured the many forms and stages of the love of God, the mystic path, and the journey of transformation - in language so startling that he, too, was often accused of heresy. Now, seven centuries later, this fresh, stunning rendering of his work translates the essence of one of Christianity's greatest poetic and spiritual voices. Here is a book that conveys the heart of Eckhart's teaching on what it means to love God and embark on an authentic spiritual journey - a journey that is characterized by mystery, paradox, and an embrace of the unknown.
