Seminario: La importancia del etutu y las ceremonias mortuorias del Olosha Lukumí

Noviembre 12, 2023, 11 a.m.—3 p.m.
Washington D.C. e inmediaciones
Costo: $125

Eleda.org presentará esta importante clase que explica la importancia del etutu—las ceremonias mortuorias del olosha—y describe el ritual en su totalidad.

Pocos oloshas modernos entienden la importancia del etutu. Mientras que el número de iniciaciones al sacerdocio a diario incrementan exponencialmente, muy pocos conocen y/o entienden que el etutu es la culminación de su iniciación: es una parte imprescindible de su asiento como olosha. Todo lo que comienza, tiene que terminar.

No se pierda esta clase que le ayudará a comprender mejor su religiosidad e iniciación en la fe lukumí. Pulse el enlace y regístrese para este importante seminario: Registración.

A new Cycle of Eleda.Org’s Video Dilogún Course begins Sep. 4, 2022.

Cost: $25 per class, payable in advance, on a monthly basis

If you have already COMPLETED Eleda.Org’s ordination course and have complied with all the requirements, you may register for the upcoming the Video Dilogún course. This is NOT an open course. The class is strictly for those who have taken our Ordination seminar and submitted the required projects. If you have not done so, please don’t register. You will not be accepted.

If you have not completed your projects, hurry. The new class begins Sep. 4th. Those of you who submitted projects and are still waiting for us to review and return them may also enroll as well.

Before registering, be aware that this is not a short course. Contrary to the thinking of some olorishas, Dilogún is a complex oracle, and learning it is not a simple process. Be ready to commit for the long run or don’t register.
