Sacred Odu Ifa: Omo Awo Contextual Reference Guide

Sacred Odu Ifa: Omo Awo Contextual Reference Guide

This book is a Contextual Reference Guide that provides a brief synopsis of the overall energy of the Odu Ifa. It has been compiled based on my in-depth research in the written literature and guidance provided by established and competent Babalawo and Awo. It is comprised of the descriptive person-hood of the Sacred verses as well as some taboos and sacrifices. This Contextual Reference Guide is in no way exhaustive and should be used coupled with information and research primarily focused on the rituals, medicines, and sacrifices of the Odu Ifa. Future publications related to this Contextual Reference Guide may include specific rituals, medicines, and sacrifices however they will come with further research and of course the guidance of well-established and competent Babalawoâ€™, Iyanifaâ€™ and Awoâ€™. This book has been written in the hopes that it will assist those born in the western diaspora to contextualize and digest the information presented in the original texts of the sacred Scriptures of Odu Ifa. Many of us rightfully travel to Nigeria for our initiations however the Western lifestyle does not often provide the time in which it would take to study under our Elders long enough to gather a comprehensive understanding of these verses. This book is my attempt to assist us with this work. I pray that it be accepted by my Elders and respected by my colleagues in Ifa. As an American Iyanifa, it is with respect for this tradition that I have undertaken this heavy and very important task and I have not done so alone. I would like to give thanks to those Priests that have contributed their knowledge and wisdom to my work. Thank you and enjoy.
