Yemojá Cover 3


NOW AVAILABLE

On the Orishas’ Roads and Pathways: Yemojá, Mother of the World
By Obá Miguel W. Ramos, Ilarí Obá, PhD.

The third book in the On the Orishas’ Roads and Pathways series is now available. This book focuses on Yemojá, the orisha that rules over the world’s waters since before the arrival of orishas and humans to Ayé. As one of the primordial deities of the Yoruba-Lukumí pantheon, Yemojá plays a vital position in the cosmos. She nurtures humanity and succors those who seek her help. In addition, Yemojá fights injustice and protects her devotees from the negative forces of the universe. As the epitome of womanhood, Yemojá is a staunch defender of women, fiercely confronting the abuse of mothers, women, and children. If the first two volumes in this series have received great praise from the Orisha community and academics alike, this next tome will live up to the reputation of the previous ones, surely becoming another valuable contribution to the literature on Orisha religion.

Location: Miami, Eleda.Org’s office in Westchester
Cost: $20 per class (In-class participation) $25 per class (Webex)–payable in advance, on a monthly bas

Guest lecturer: Jorel Rodríguez

Eleda.Org announces a new approach to divination classes, an introductory course to the Lukumí Dilogún oracle.

Unlike our full seminar, this class will be open to all Lukumí olorishas so long as they can verify their ordination status. It will help to promote a greater understanding of the oracle’s procedures, significance, and basic interpretation, and lay important foundations, especially for the younger olorisha to develop a better understanding of odu. This, in turn, will assist younger olorishas to better guide their ilé and godchildren. It will also pave the way for those who have taken our ordination seminar and are interested in taking our full Dilogún course.

If you are interested in partaking of this seminar, register as soon as possible. You must provide a minimum of two verifiable references that will confirm your religious status/ordination and their contact information.

Once you application has been approved, we shall send an email requesting a NON-REFUNDABLE $50.00 deposit, which will be deducted from your first month’s dues. Please make sure that your email address is entered correctly in the registration form. The deposit must be paid by August 15th. The request for the balance of the first month’s payment will be sent to all the participants the week before the class begins.

The deposit is payable through Eleda.Org’s “Seminars & Payments” section. We cannot guarantee a seat without a deposit. DO NOT POST YOUR DEPOSIT UNTIL YOU HAVE RECEIVED AN EMAIL NOTIFYING THAT YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED TO PARTICIPATE.

On the Orishas’ Roads and Pathways: Obatalá, Odúa, Oduduwá is the second in a collection of publications on Lukumí Orisha religion. Ramos has published many other works. His Orí Eledá mí ó . . . Si mi cabeza no me vende (2011), Adimú: Gbogbó Tén’unjé Lukumí (2012), and Obí Agbón—Lukumí Divination with Coconut (2012) have received much praise from the Orisha community. The first volume in this series, On the Orishas’ Roads and Pathways: Oshún, Deity of Femininity, laid the foundations for this volume on Obatalá and Odúa, which promises to engage the reader and promote necessary and meaningful discourse and consideration of important themes on the current state of Lukumí religion as it experiences its transition onto the stage of world faiths.

This series will help the serious olorisha to establish well-founded theoretical and practical perspectives and knowledge about herbs and their usage in Lukumí Orisha Worship.

This lecture will discuss the proscriptions and prescriptions related with the Odu Ejionle/Ejiogbe and several of the Odu’s defense mechanisms through the use of herbs and ebó ewé ní l’ara—ritual or purificatory baths.

All those interested in participating must send register by clicking the registration link and filling out the form.
