1/1

Consult Ifa through whelks has nothing to do with this poor formula that is adopted by people who do not know what is Ifa and has no idea what is Odu.

But it does not just occur in Candombl. In Ifa even exist Babalaws malformed and lazy that summarize an appointment to speak the meanings associated with a Odu. They did not bother to tell the stories and interact through them with the inquirer.

These people do not represent the religion. Profiteers are infiltrated.

It is important to mention that the verses of Ifa generally represent religiousethics and religious knowledge. If there is a scripture in this Yoruba religionare the verses of Odu.

Thus a query through Ifa always brings ethics and vision of the Yoruba religionto the subject. Even the inquirer being a person who is not part of the religion he will answer a religious view of your situation ie one religious interpretation.

It could not be an oracle associated with a religion must necessarily bring themessages of the religion that is associated. This aspect becomes inevitable whenwe remember or reports that religious knowledge is contained in verses or stori

es of Odu.

So although many want to take a worldly view or common Ifa, as if it were an instrument of visionaries, it never will be. Ifa is and always will be an oracle with which we speak to God.

The divine energy

But Odu are not only marks or stories. Odu is mainly the divine energy that comes from Orunmila (Orunmila) to us in response to consultation of Ifa oracle.

Thus, in addition to being a graphic symbol, and contain through their storiesmeanings and guidance for our lives, one Odu is also the answer to our distress.

This primary energy comes through the oracle and will be used by Babalaw also through orixa (Orisa), to help us.

The Odu are like mandalas transcendental energies that mark active and inactivethat are present in a given situation with a person with great precision. In metaphysical terms, Odu are the sacred symbols containing axe (ASE) (ASE - force. Force) of everything in existence. They are in their graphical representation maps that reflect the dynamic movement of energy and identify with the primary forces of the world.

If the Odu contain the axe (ASE) he then comes from Olodumare.

Odu is both the diagnosis of the problems we have and the answer to correct them

. The consulting Ifa materializes in graphic marks and through the Babalawo, the messenger of Orunmila (Orunmila), the key to move the energy in the world, theOdu.
