samista:
It's not sacred, it's satanic

RighteousI:
look at how urban, modern and graduate looking the girl looks yet she is into all these fetishes. if you see her singing "Imela" in a redeemed Church you will not even associate her with such fetishes.

Only Christ will save you. traditional religions are from satan.

Smile4daddy:
Op what's the name of the goddess?

And what do I need to do if I want to surmon her to appear in my room?

toyetade:
You have gone to worship the gods And you will still be calling yourself a Christian.. what ate you doing in those places

Bbsharon:
The Osun-Osogbo sacred groove is the abode of the Osun goddess known as the goddess of fertility. Many women come yearly during the festival and ask the goddess for children and then promise to repay a certain gift if rewarded with a child.

Below it's a picture take at the entrance of the groove and also at the fertility goddess statue where prayers are made to ask for children.

I spent 45days in that same Osun groove for film project but my landlord who's over 90years then told me he has never step his foot there.
its nice place anyway, lots of friendly wildlife there

Protein0:
I lived for almost 4years around Isale Osun in Osogbo, I was never there even during the festivals when my own street will be flooded with visitors to the groove. Monkeys from the grooves are always our regular "visitors" to our hood then. I think the place is more of religious than tourism.

Bbsharon:
The groove has rich herbal plants that is use for all kind of pharmaceutical treatments. No form of wildlife hunting is allowed and equally no felling of trees.

Also the first palace in osogbo. Osogbo has seven different palaces in which the present king resides in the 7th one at Oja Oba in osogbo.

Bbsharon:
At the riverside. Footwares not allowed as people come there to pray and also make their heart desires known to the goddess . Was I making a wish there?

I had fun visiting this place of rich cultural heritage. Would you visit if you had the chance?

FisifunKododada:


so your god has low self esteem. Any criticism he will want 'deal' with pesin. Is that one a god or a mere human?

FisifunKododada:


Some people will also say the christian god only grants temporary wish also. STOP disrespecting other people's religion so that the won't disrespect your god.

Bbsharon:
The groove is peculiar for it’s rich history and work of arts. The groove has been preserved over time from century to century as the Osun goddess worshipers believes the place serve as a medium whereby the goddess still communicates with her people. Sacrifices are made daily, weekly, monthly, and the overall big festival comes up every year in August.


Below are pictures of the many shrines at the river side. The third picture is the shrine where sacrifices are made to separate humans from their spiritual spouse.
