Secrets of the Odus Ifá is the First English Translation of the 256 Odu texts of Ifá. Unlike other recent translations of theYoruba Odus, this book preserves the format and content of the Lukumí System of Cuba. This extraordinary work, translated by a Cuban-American Awó of Ifá, offers an unprecedented, unique opportunity to English speaking babalawos to enrich their divination resources. It will permit, for the first time, American babalawos to have full access to the texts that have served Spanish.readers for almost once century. Secrets of the Odus of Ifá is of the highest quality. It is printed on acid-free paper for conservation purposes. It is a solid, bound in leather. The value of Secrets of the Odus of Ifá
becomes incalculable when it is realized that it remains
the only complete source for English speakers. It stands
on its own for the babalawo’s divination practice,
whereas recent works such as Epega and Neimark’s The Sacred
Oracle of Ifá and William Bascom’s Ifá Divination
represent the odus’ Yoruba “verses,” not the complete
Lukumí system developed by such luminaries as Ramón
Febles Obetuanilara, Bernardo Rojas Irete Untedí, Miguel
Febles Odí Ká, Facundo Sevilla Ogbe Dí, Benito
Rodríguez Oche Paure, and Pedro Arango in Cuba. Do
not miss this unique opportunity to own the Secrets of the Odus
of Ifá in English. |

This book originates in my research, study, and practice of Ifa ritual in Cuba. It is not an academic exercise, but an effort to place in the hands of babalawos the fundamental keys that he needs for his Ifa practice. You will find, in a practical, rapid, and simple form, the following aspects: the odun of Ifa, their names and nicknames; what characterizes the sign, e.g., proverb, saying, animal; the deities dominating/speaking; the ceremonies, works, and orientations born in each sign; a synthesis of the odu' s secret (works); the legends used in the babalawo's oral exposition; the most common ebo and the form of execution on the tray, according to Miguel Febles; a Lucumi vocabulary ---AAAM. FORTHCOMING 2002. |
