pressing ikin Ifa TrainingIt is with great humbleness, humility and a desire to serve my Ifa community that I make available this training. After several years of teaching my own Godchildren, I have been asked by my brothers in Nigeria to put together a study curriculum they can use to closely match the knowledge my personal students are receiving.

This program addresses the needs of those who have been initiated yet for some reason or another do not have access to someone who can teach them the Literary Corpus of Ifa, mainly the Odus.

The approach we will follow is one that first looks at the essence of the Odus. By this I mean that each Odu addresses a particular area of life, and by studying the main message of the Odus one can quickly ascertain the main message. After this, it becomes easy to memorize the details of each odu.

Part I Of Ifa Training

We will start with the 16 Mejis. These are the “parents” of all the 240 Odus which are formed via combinations of the Meji Odus. Learning Odu is a life-long endeavor under taken with great love by many dedicated Babalawos. The best we can hope to accomplish via this course is acquiring sufficient understanding of each Odu in order to accurately perform Dafa.

Divination is at the center of all Ifa activities, and it is the Babalawo who is responsible for performing such divinations.

As we take each Odu, we will study its genesis, and related stories in order to understand which area of life the Odu is focusing on. Therefore, the Babalawo will immediately recognize the area of life the client is currently having issues with. This is extremely important to know, and well studied Babalawos can often counsel individuals by pairing their issues with an Odu which covers their troubles to the extent of even prescribing a proven solution.

The course material will be emailed each month. Starting with Ogbe Meji through Ofu Meji a total of 16 months will be invested in the pursuit of this knowledge. Once a month we will hold a one-on-one session via Skype. During this session you will be able to talk about anything related to your studies as well as the lesson you are currently on.

You will be responsible for studying and memorizing the Odus and I will be responsible for helping you learn how to decipher and interpret them.

Part II of Ifa Training – The Adept Series

There is a separate part to this course of study, and this one covers the “secrets” of the Odus. These are the “magical” formulas hidden within each Odu which is only transferred from mouth to ear. You will learn the ewe (herbs) prescribed to each Odu, and how to use them for the application of “Akose” or spiritual medicine. This is where the Babalawo shines; this is the knowledge that separates neophytes from adepts. Due to the high potency of this knowledge this information is only given to those who have completed the first part of this training.

During this course of studies you will learn the secrets of Ebo Riru. You will learn about Adabos and the different offerings made to certain spiritual energies to achieve for the client their individual needs. I’m sorry for being so vague  about this but I hope you understand.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Awodele Ifayemi for allowing me to attend his “IFA Teaching Classes”. For those of us who have been initiated but have little access to our mentors, Awodele Ifayemi has put together a comprehensive training program that allows you to learn the dynamics and mysteries of IFA. Awodele Ifayemi humbleness and dedication to his community and IFA is demonstrated through his gesture, gratitude and commitment as a Babalawo to extend his teachings and philosophy through this course. I hope to gain the necessary training and be able to pass on the wisdom and knowledge set forth through the IFA teachings. Thank you Awodele Ifayemi.
