Book excerpt: Alafia! This children`s book was created to learn and understand about the "Orisha". Orishas are deities from the Yoruba land of Nigeria. In this book, I will explain what is Ashe, who is Olodumare and how the Orishas were formed. I created a fictional character named "Ade," who is an African gray parrot, to help with the interaction and make this book fun for the children. This book is the missing piece to my other books, "Orishas The Childrens Book (1,2,3&4)." In those books, I do explain about the many different Orishas but now I have a chance to explain "what are Orishas and their origin". Thank you, O dabo!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was created for children to learn and understand the different Orishas. There are many pataki (stories) to different Orishas, which I felt were too mature or complex for a younger crowd. There are many books that have been published by different authors that explain a mature story to each Orishas. I wrote a book where the children can learn the colors, numbers, and have basic comprehension by illustrating pictures and writing a simple paragraph so the child can grasp the concept of each Orisha. Please note each book contains different Orishas. Here is a list of some Orishas that are in this book: Eleggua, Oshun, Shango, Yemoja, Obatala and many more...

Book Synopsis Orishas of Trinidad by : Monique Joiner Siedlak
Download or read book Orishas of Trinidad written by Monique Joiner Siedlak and published by Oshun Publications, LLC. This book was released on 2020-04-17 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trinidad Orisha: Spirit, Color and Drums Orisha is a colorful and misunderstood religion practiced in Trinidad and Tobago with ties to the Yoruba culture of Nigeria. A spiritual tradition with celebrations of food, drums, dance, and prayer, Orisha has millions of followers in the world. Orisha of Trinidad, by Monique Joiner Siedlak, explores this African-routed tradition starting with a look at the roots of this vibrant and colorful tradition and how it evolved to where it is today. This fascinating book covers topics such as the past persecution of Orisha followers, the religion’s deities, practices, ceremonies, and ties to aspects of the Catholic Church. Monique brings light to the fact that there are those who, in their ignorance, still demonize this religion. The truth is, there is nothing demonic about Orisha. While it is a non-Christian religion, it shares the ideas of baptism and one supreme God — Oludumare. Readers will love reading about the Orisha spirits, equated with Christian saints, and seen as messengers between man and Oludumare’s divine Kingdom. For example, Osain, the Yoruba god of herbal medicine, healing, and prophecy associated with St Francis, and Shakpana, a healer of children’s diseases related to St Jerome. Then there is Ogun, the warrior god of iron and steel, associated with St Michael. Order your copy of Orisha of Trinidad by Monique Joiner Siedlak today, and introduce yourself to a rich and fascinating African-rooted tradition called Orisha. You will enjoy reading about this extraordinary tradition.
Download or read book The Ibeyi written by Stuart Myers and published by . This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is through the Ibeyi that the promises of Oshun are fulfilled: a life filled with beauty, sweetness and love; it is also through them that the beautiful Orisha seems more human, more fragile, and yet immensely more powerful. They are the pride, and in many ways, the source of Shango's power and strength, and through them one also learns of Yemaya's heartfelt duty to be Mother to all as she is Mother to the world and most of the Orishas. They are integral to the system of Orisha worship--without them the ache of neither the aleyo nor Santero can be complete. Enjoy this pamphlet--for all of you who read this work and continue your studies among the Orisha tradition, my prayer is this: that Eleggua opens the rods to knowledge, and Obatala helps you use the knowledge in your quest for wisdom and Iwa Pele--Good character. Ache! To!

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.
