We shall reincarnate ifa


The Yoruba name Ifatunji means "Ifa reincarnates." Ifa reincarnates thru us. This is explained in the Odu, Idi Wori, which states clearly:

"Kosi ti ko le bi awo l'omo.
Kosi ti ko le bi Orunmila.
Baba eni bi o ba bini ni pepe,
Bi o ba pe titi a tun nbi baba eni lomo
Yeye eni bi o ba bini ni pepe,
Bi o ba pe titi a tun nbi yeye eni lomo
A difa fun Orunmila,
Ti o wipe oun maa mu orun bo saye
Oun maa mu aye lo sorun."

"There is no lady who can't give birth to Ifa's wisdom.
There is no lady who cannot birth Orunmila himself.
Our father, who fully brings us into being,
eventually we will bring him into being as well.
Our mother, who fully brings us into being,
eventually we will bring her into being as well.
This was the teaching of Ifa for Orunmila
Who said he would bring heaven to earth,
and that he would also take earth to heaven
