ghostofsparta: I don't have authority on what I say here and note that I am not saying am right or wrong about it. A babalawo once told me about some Odu Ifa that speak about the details of other spirituality. Odu Otua tell somethings about Islam; verses on Christianity are found in Odu Oturupon just like we have Sango in Odu Okanran and Ifa basically is in Eji Ogbe. I cant say specifically if those verses were added nor do I know details of the specific corpus. But I think Ifa cover many other spirituality. |

The pollution of ethnic blood is always a mistake. Especially when the person in question is a member of Traditional Priesthood and should set a proper example for others. |

PAGAN9JA:isn't this rasict? She is an Ifa worshiper too, isn't that enough? |

sisiafrika: isn't this rasict? She is an Ifa worshiper too, isn't that enough? Its not racist. We are not advocating racial discrimination. JUst stick to your natural respective ethnic groups. Thats all. No its not enough. You don't understand Paganism. Ifa Orisha is meant only for Yorubas and related groups (Fon, Ewe,etc.) who practice Vodun. western whites lost their original religions. |

PAGAN9JA:most are not really white. Latinos and carribeans, they have roots in Africa; they are just trying to reunite with their ancentral beliefs. |

sisiafrika: most are not really white. Latinos and carribeans, they have roots in Africa; they are just trying to reunite with their ancentral beliefs. Let them do what they want. But that doesnt give them the right to interfere in Yoruba custom and modify it or assimilate with Yorubas. They also have white and native american ancestry. THis is the problem with intermarriage. |

PAGAN9JA: Orikinla..... you are definitely one of the lost people who think that they are following the right path to heaven. To be frank, you have lost it by rejecting your ancestor's spirituality for the European's deception called religion. You claim that Jesus Christ is the only way and that people should ask Ifa about Jesus Christ. Ifa does not know Jesus Christ of the European origin. Infact what you see in some Ifa stanzas as Jewesun cannot be said to be Jesus Christ. Have you read about the story of Osiris in the Kemetic spirituality (African spirituality)? This story or mythology has been in existence more than 10000 years before the bible was even written. Do you even realize that: 1. Osiris was born immaculately 2. Osiris died and resurrected on the 3rd day 3. Osiris ascended to heaven and is coming back to judge the world? These are mythological stories copied by the Europeans and modified by the Arabs who eventually took the Diamond from you and gave you brass instead. Sad to see people being brainwashed by religion and disrespecting their own ancestors. There is no way you can disrespect your own ancestors and think that you can make progress as a people. To be frank with you, there is no literal person called Adam, Eve, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Israel, Samson, Peter, Paul, James, Jesus, John, name them all. These never existed!!!! That's a fact! The 12 disciples you read in the Bible is nothing new. In the Kemetic spirituality where they stole the idea of the 12 disciples, you have the 12 Neteru. There is no problem borrowing concepts from other cultures but the problem your religions (Islam & Christianity) is that after stealing these concepts, they now make mythological stories and figures real story and real people, after which they demonize the source of their plagiarism. Think and repent! |

Kaywhy1: Oga, you just dey dere dey deceive yourself.... There is no literal figure name Jesus Christ or Yehshua. This was concocted by the Europeans religionist by stealing the Osiris story. Do your research very well and you will be disappointed that all the things you have been holding on to since you were born i.e. your religion of Christianity/Islam is not true. You have been duped!!!! Sorry bro. |

Seempliehuman: You are very correct sir. Paganism was coined by the foolish slave masters who stole from our ancestors and then demonize the same thing they stole from. They even started slandering and writing false stories about our ancestors saying that IFA do make use of human sacrifice. Where do you find that? In which Odu is that coming from? Yet they write books claiming this false stories.... IFA is not a religion but contains religion. It is not science and technology, but contains them, it is not culture but contains culture, it is not language, but contains language, it is not mathematics but contains mathematics, it is not philosophy but contains philosophy, it is not medicine, but it contains medicine, it is not psychology, but contains psychology...... IFA is African Spirituality! |

People ask me about this institute and when I direct them to its website they are often disappointed, not convinced that it is authentic and serious institution for learning. I just received another inquiry today from a couple in America that want to take Ifa studies together. I told them I will find out and get back to them. Before I share with them to go to Ifa Heritage Institue website, first I would like to know from anyone with knowledge of its current state and status. The more you can share the better. The website is ok for Nigerians and other Africans, but people with inquiries from abroad do not respond kindly to it. I know Ifa teaches simplicity...but they see this as negligence and not simplicity from an institute of learning. I believe if the website is a reflection of what the school is more needs to be done to turn it into an international academy. Here is the site on web. http://ifaheritage.org/ |
