Pastor AIO: O baba pastor, thank you for your response as well as your interest in seeing my perspective on other issues. The truth is, I joined NL just for this thread as I saw it was a while that you expressed your desire to reach Ofun Meji and it seemed either you didn't have time or was a little disheartened being the major contributor for the thread. So i decided to help you add to this thread, and encounter a few friends on this forum that I could move with. Thats the main reason why i joined NL. I will get back to you with some more things for Owonrin Meji. |

I apologise that my comments have in anyway been misleading. I asked the poster to email me because I do not like to ask personal questions on a pubic forum. Also it is not possible for me to get a piece of anyone's cake. I live in a small country far removed from a significant majority of you all. I am not soliciting anyone anything. I am just offering my perspective and an attentive ear. Either way, Miss Inked_Nerd and Miss 190 have more or less already addressed the questioned I wanted to air. Also it seems as if the situation has been resolved by the original poster. @baba r231and baba tpiah I am sorry that my post has painted my intentions negatively. |

Aboru Aboye Ojo Awo loni. Owonrin Meji II II II II I I I I Okuta a la ma seje, difa fun owo, Omo abimo marun, jere mararun, Abufun Ese, omo abimo marun, jere mararun, Won ni ebo ni ki won se Omo owo ki ku loju owo, Omo ese ki ku loju ese, Iwa ki toju oniwa baje, Translation: The stone break and have no blood, Divined for hand, That will give birth to five children and reap the fruit of his five children, Also for feet that will give birth to five children and reap the fruit of all five The children of hand will not died in the presence of hand, The children of leg will not died in the presence of leg, Someone behaviors will not perish in his presence. Ifa said that the person shld make ebo for his or her children that he/she will see their benefit, and he/she should change his or her behaviour to good. Thought I would get the ball rolling so that we can accomplish Baba Pastor's goal of going through the first 16 Odu Ifa. |

Greetings Ladies and Gents, I want to append what I said before. My friends, sometimes we as people men and women, ask God to send a mate, one that we can truly love and love us in return and all that other stuff. But at the same time, after we have made the request, we want to tell God how and when we want this mate. We limit our possibilities consciously or unconsciously. Case in point. A woman asks God for a good, responsible man, patient, kind and understanding. God does His thing and a few months later the lady in question meets a man, On the surface he seems to match what she wants BUT, he is short, from the wrong tribe and he doesn't make as much money as her. She closes the door on that possibility saying to herself, this cannot be the man God wants her to be with. How can she be sure without truly opening up herself to the possibility? Another Case. A man asks God for a good wife. God send her but lo and behold, she doesn't have the physical features he believes she should have. She is not of the same religion as he is and she is uneducated. There are many more I can outline but it will become repetitive and redundant We all have in your minds certain criteria that we want in our mates. I will say that many of these criteria can change and some are just not all that important. Some, we can comprise and others we can do without. Furthermore, I have observed that God sends what we need before he sends what we want. And for me I have learnt that when you need nothing, you want nothing. When all your needs are met surprising you don't have any wants. The main point I am trying to make is, let us stop getting in the way of our own-selves. Let us look beneath the surface and truly surrender ourselves to the unlimited possibilities that exist in the Universe. |

If I may be so bold as to put my mouth here. There are many good men all over the world. BUt just like you good women, they have been hurt too much, or too shy or a combination of both to come out and talk to women. Relationships in this day and age require some more effort from each party male and female. There are no fairy tale men. But there are men who are willing to learn and understand you. Who already respect and admire you. Maybe the package they are wrapped in to not meet your requirements but I am sure as the sun rising they are there. Most time you do not have to look far for a good mate, male or female. Sometimes its just changing the lenses you have been using to look at the world. In those rare cases where the person is indeed far, God always works it out that you can be with him or her. Many people have found lasting love via internet. Please ladies do not give up on us men yet. We are here and we are trying. 1 Like |

Aboru Aboye Irosun Meji I I I I II II II II Ahere o ku iwo ni kan soso ninu oko, Eru o ba aba niju O dijo ojo ba ro Ki ahere o too di eleni A dia fun Egbe Ope ti somo bibu Agbonniregun Ebo ni Won ni ko se O si gbebo, O rubo Nje owo ti n o se la ni Ifa Bi Ifa ba hu kan, maa teji Owo ti n o se la ni Ifa Bi Ifa ba hu meji maa tekan. Owo ti n o se la ni Ifa Translation: Farmhouse the only occupants in the farm The barn is not afraid of the wilderness Not until the day that rain falls Before the farmhouse becomes inhabitied Ifa declerations to Egbe Ope, child of Agbonniregun The told him to offer ebo and he head and did The job I will prosper with is Ifa If the Ikin remain one, imprint two The job I will prosper with is Ifa If the Ikin remain two imprint one THe job I will prosper with is Ifa Ifa says the religion and job this person should be doing is Ifa. This person also need to be truthful. Ase Etala soju baragaga, Adia fun aye ti sawo lo ile onidere, Aye o ku mo, ni dere laye wa, Awo rere ni redere. Translation: Etala have spread eye, Divined for earth that went to onidere house, Earth never die, it is in idere ( means never dies), A good babalawo must never died. Ifa foressee blessing of long life for the person if he can make ebbo he will live long. Ase I think two is good enough. It is good that we are putting down these things for people to see the beauty of our tradition. But you must remember the babalawo work very hard to learn these verses. The must become Eru to their masters to learn or in some cases must pay them. So let us not cheapen the sacrifice that they make to learn. A question was asked about how long it takes for a babalawo to be trained, it varies from place to place and idividual to individual. Some students learn ifa at a scary pace and others take much longer. Average 5 years .But that is just preliminary training. Think of it as associate degree. Then from there they are more or less assistants, Then they will add to what they know from different teachers and different places. Its easier now because the foundation has been laid so they begin to learn specialized Ifa. This can take more years. Then we can say for lack of better comparisons. That person has a Bachelor's and can now maybe practice Ifa independently, So they must keep increasing themself until they true PHD babalawo. So depending on the person an average of 10 to 15 years is needed before than person is a real adept. Ire ooo 1 Like |

Aboru Aboye To everyone. Let me introduce myself, My name is Onifade Egunyemi, I am an ifa student. I would like to say how enjoyable it was to read the many positive post about Ifa as well as to read the posts of the verses of Ifa. So far Paster AIO and Idinrete, I would like to say an extra thanks for you sharing. There is much I want to say, and I so dislike typing too much. I will just share this for Odi Meji, In this odu ifa says that the vocation that the person should be doing is one where by he is in one place during his work day. He warns that he will receive many annoyances there but accompanying the annoyance is money. So if he can endure the annoyance, he will have wealth. Secondly, Ifa says this person needs to feed his Ori. Because it is his Ori that will cause his honour and prestige to rise up. Lastly, Odi meji gives greats prospects for those that are seeking children. On a side note, Baba Paster AIO the initial invocation to awake Orunmila is different from place to place. But the one you put is very good and effective. |
