Funny "Jewesun" is in Ifa which some said could be the same Jesus since Jewesun was also referred as the only son of Olodumare, son of Ifa and also the lamb according to Ifa 📍

Jewesun in Yoruba means "let the leaf sleep" which can mean serenity📍 Well, the Jesus in the bible wasn't about chaos. Looking at all these, I think Ifa is really deep though. There's also 8-bit in Ifa which is adopted as the standard unit of computer data today. Ifa is quite deep, considering Ifa was before the computer age which was only after AD whereas Ifa has been more than 8000yrs.

Meanwhile, the Jewesun in Ifa wasn't keen about making sacrifices when asked to do such. Jewesun came after the orishas because according to Ifa, he was asked to make sacrifices of a he-goat to the orishas but he refused to do such. However, he agreed to sacrifice a lamb/sheep, not to the orishas though. All these are the things stated about Jewesun in Ifa. However, since Ifa says Jewesun is the Lamb (sheep), then that meant he sacrificed himself. That was the same thing described in the bible. Ifa is indeed deep.

That said, I will like the creative and innovative ones of these orishas to be designed (in more aesthetically beautiful monument designs🗽🏞️) and also the Ifa temples to be built into more aesthetically beautiful standard monumental building structures 🏘️🏙️🏯🌉.

Not for these orishas monumental designs to be sacrificed to because it will make these monuments grotesque/unsightly 😂 but to be monumental symbols of historical, creative and Innovative enlightenment for everyone. These beautiful Ifa temples and the creative orishas can act as tourist centers, enlightenment, research, history and educative centers for everyone. The Yoruba Kings who are the custodian of Yoruba cultures also have prominent roles to play here.

While the Ifa priests (onifa) can operate in these Ifa temples as history professors and researchers in innovative, esoteric, scientific & creative enlightenment 📍 I feel this is the best way to utilize IFA at its finest.

I also support the celebration of the carnival/festival of isese and egun etc to celebrate Yoruba cultures of historical events, creativity and Innovative enlightenment, just like other races have their own, such as Halloween, Buddhist etc 📍

Dsimmer:


Basically, Ifa is simply an enlightenment, innovation and creativity, aside from the fact that it contains the history of Yoruba race. It's not about retrogressive ideas and shouldn't be. I feel that's what a religion should be about. Any religion that doesn't champion innovation and creativity but champion retrogressive ideas should be invalidated.
