Sixteen Mythological Stories of Ifá (Ìtàn Ifá Mérìndínlógún)


Sixteen Mythological Stories of Ifá (Ìtàn Ifá Mérìndínlógún) is a trial blazer. Traditional, oral wisdom finally compiled and shared with the world. The stories have roots that are ancient and deep. In this book there are sixteen stories from the two hundred and fifty six (256) Odù Ifá. These are powerful, fascinating stories which are hundreds of years old, yet with messages that are applicable to our lives today.

 Each story includes a chant from the actual Odù, a narration and a message (àse). Reading Sixteen Mythological Stories of Ifá (Ìtàn Ifá Mérìndínlógún)

will move you toward a better understanding of Ifá. If you are unfamiliar with Ifá and the rich tradition of Yorùbá, but have wondered what it is all about, this book is for you. It provides an excellent introduction to the rich mythology of the Yorùbá which has, until now, been passed along orally for hundreds of years.

 In addition to the stories, the book includes a very welcomed chapter/section for the professional practitioner which gives insight into the complex requirements for being a true Babaláwo. This chapter makes the world aware of Ifá (Yorùbá) as a serious and real religion which compares favorably with any of the world religions, and that a Babaláwo is trained for his profession.

 This masterful book, along with Chief FAMA's first book, FUNDAMENTALS OF THE YORÙBÁ RELIGION (ÒRÌSÀ WORSHIP), illuminates the ancient and sacred tradition of the Yorùbá. It is presented in a clear and easy style, yet with the depth that could only come from one who has researched, studied and lived the tradition.

 The book is 5.5 x 8.5. The chants in English and Yorùbá. The book has a comprehensive English-Yorùbá glossary, 224 pages, and is paper bound for $14.95.
