Ifa Divination by William Russell Bascom Pdf

"The sacred texts of Ifa, repository of the accumulated wisdom of countless generations of Yoruba people, are an invaluable source not only for all students of African oral literature and Yoruba civilization, but also for future generations interested in the continuing vitality of Ifa divination and a Yoruba way of life and thought." —Henry Drewal This landmark study of Ifa, the most important and elaborate system of divination of the Yoruba people of Nigeria, remains a monumental contribution to scholarship in anthropology, folklore, religion, philosophy, linguistics, and African and African-American studies.

The Holy Book of Ifa Adimula the Sacred Voice of God by Latosa Mabinuori Adegboyega Pdf

This book is written for the benefit of the Yoruba people and others who appreciate Yoruba Traditional Religion but do not know how to go about the acquisition of knowledge pertaining to it and all African Traditional Religions. This holy book is a pointer to all the 256 Odus in the Ifa literary corpus. This book is therefore written to bridge that gap. I am quite certain that this book will be of immense benefit to whosoever reads it, for this book is an exposition to African Traditional Religions, particularly the Yoruba Traditional Religion in which Ifa occupies a pride of place. This book is recommended to all lovers of knowledge, the Yoruba Traditional Religion and Ifa.

Ifa by Hans Scheutz Pdf

Afrika gilt als die Wiege der Menschheit und begeistert immer wieder aufs Neue durch die archaischen, ausdrucksstarken Kunstobjekte seiner Volksstämme. Unter den vielen afrikanischen Volksgruppen gelten die Yoruba als die Kunstsinnigsten. Ein besonderer Bestandteil ihres religiösen Lebens und ihres daraus bedingten Kunstschaffens sind die Orakelbretter. Diese runden, ovalen oder auch rechteckigen Kultobjekte aus Holz zeigen am oberen Rand das Gesicht des Trickser-Gottes Eshu. Der Orakelpriester, der BABALAWO, übertrug mittels Strichzeichnungen die Ergebnisse der Würfe von 16 Palmnüssen auf das bemehlte Orakelbrett. Aus der Kombination dieser Striche ergaben sich über 3000 Orakelsprüche. Das Buch gewährt anhand von zahlreichen Abbildungen einen Einblick in den Formenreichtum der Ifa-Orakelbretter sowie in die Glaubensvorstellungen der Yoruba, speziell des Ifa-Orakelbundes. Bis vor kurzem wurde noch jeder Verrat des Geheimbundes mit der Todesstrafe geahndet. 2005 wurde das Ifa-Orakel als immaterielles Kulturerbe der UNESCO anerkannt und 2008 in die repräsentative Liste des immateriellen Kulturerbe der Menschheit aufgenommen.

Hand of Ifa by Chief Dr. Ayele Kumari Pdf

One of the first steps to Ifa is getting a Hand Of Ifa. It’s reception marks a turning point where an individual begins to line up with their destiny, While a hand of Ifa is not a full initiation to Ifa, it is an advanced step beyond general interest and before you Initiate fully. Many practitioners at this level find themselves lost, not quite being a beginner and not an initiate either. A book like this has never been done specifically for practitioners at this level. It is a guide for people who have received a hand of ifa, gone through an Isefa ceremony, intend to initiate to Ifa, and also for people who are initiated but have had little instructions on how to manage and work with their Ifa. It can also be very valuable for people who are ready to take the next step in their Ifa journey as they prepare to receive a hand or initiate. Hand of Ifa is a workbook with exercises to further the Onifa and devotee development. It also offers an introduction to the 16 Meji Odus, their verses, and significance with soul development and personal growth. The individual will learn key foundational skills for success in Ifa such as: How to utilize Oriki for invocation and even create an Oriki How to care for Ifa and Esu shrines How to perform Ose Ifa How to assess our spiritual debts and cress through a Spiritual Balance sheet How to understand and interpret Ifa verses How to read Ifa signatures How to prepare some Ifa Akose (Spiritual Medicines) How to gain a personal understanding of Odus via their psychology and practical expressions. And more… One of the first steps to Ifa is getting a Hand Of Ifa.

THE 256 ODU DE IFA CUBAN AND TRADITIONAL VOL. 8 Ogbe Ose-Ogbe Ofun by MARCELO MADAN Pdf

These Treatises of the Odu of Ifá in volumes, are very complete, since in addition to dealing with the Afro-Cuban Odu of Ifá, they also contain treatises of Traditional African Ifá. Both bring together thousands of Pataki or Stories, thousands of Eboses and works, which will make it easier for you to deepen your study and resolve any situation that arises in the religious field of consulting the Ifá oracle. The Synthesis of the Treaties of the Odu of Ifá, already published by me previously, is nothing more than, as its name indicates, a synthesis of these treaties, whose objective was always to support to the Babalawo as a handy reminder, starting from the base, that these issues have been studied and deepened before. For these reasons, it is highly recommended to have this valuable information in your library. We have grouped only two Odu in each volume, to facilitate their acquisition.

The Last Ta'ifa by Anthony H. Minnema Pdf

In The Last Ta'ifa, Anthony H. Minnema shows how the Banu Hud, an Arab dynasty from Zaragoza, created and recreated their vision of an autonomous city-state (ta'ifa) in ways that reveal changes to legitimating strategies in al-Andalus and across the Mediterranean. In 1110, the Banu Hud lost control of their emirate in the north of Iberia and entered exile, ending their century-long rule. But far from accepting their fate, the dynasty adapted by serving Christian kings, nurturing rebellions, and carving out a new state in Murcia to recover, maintain, and grow their power. By tracing the Banu Hud across chronicles, charters, and coinage, Minnema shows how dynastic leaders borrowed their rivals' claims and symbols and engaged in similar types of military campaigns and complex alliances in an effort to cultivate authority. Drawing on Arabic, Latin, and vernacular sources, The Last Ta'ifa uses the history of the Banu Hud to connect the pursuit of legitimacy in al-Andalus to the politics of other emerging kingdoms and emirates. The actions of Hudid leaders, Minnema shows, echoed across the region as other kings, rebels, and adventurers employed parallel methods to gain power and resist the forces of centralization, highlighting the constructed nature of legitimacy in al-Andalus and the Mediterranean.
