Hello Dynast, I'd like to buy that necklace from you, only the necklace from around your neck! This would mean something very personal to me! If you can't sell it then I'd very much understand! Love your videos! When can I meet you one day?
Dynasty,I want you to help me locate to this man you interview.tanx

I'm Louisiana creole and Gheechee, with Haitian heritage. Vodou, rootwork, hoodoo were my foundation growing up and they are with me till this day. I did try to run away from it but I never could. I eventually learned to be proud of it and embrace it. Louisiana vodou also praises and celebrates Orişa.... I think Haitian vodou does too. That shows just how connected we all are as Africans
Can you help me

Haitian Vodu has nothing to do with ORISHA. Orisha is YORUBA tradition. Haitians call their spirits LWA or LOA (meaning Spirit in the Ewe language). Btw, not all Haitians are EWE descent, it’s just that our traditions (despite us being the minority in the island) were highly venerated and used as something to give us tradition. The KONGO-descent Haitians were the majority of the island and they took Vodu as their own. But there is a difference in Haitian Vodu that majority of people will never know if they don’t come from there. The northern half Haitians have the REAL traditions as opposed to the Southern Half that practice KONGOLESE VODU (Kongo do not come from that culture). Btw, VODU AND HOODOO (properly HODU) are one and the same; both are EWE (Ever) traditions of the Ewe people of benin, Ghana, Togo and Nigeria. Fon of Dahomey are Ewe people too, just name change separated them.
Actually the ifa can give total of 256 signs not 241. The signs are called the odu of ifa. There are 16 primary odus and the 16 combination (16 x 16) makes the 256. I'm from the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria. And by the way the spiritual system originated from "ILE IFE" in Nigeria, and it's where you can find the complete knowledge of the metaphysics. Cubans, Brazilians, and Europeans all come there to learn. It's the principle of the 256 odu that computer scientist used to create the 256-bits for the computer brain (CPU) centra processing unit. In ifa spiritual system 8 is the number of infinity, and 16 is the present of Olodumare (God). Ifa is a direct speech from God. If you want to learn more hit me up or go to Ile Ife in Nigeria.
michael b Brazil only recently have ifa and its from Nigerian priests initiating them. They only had dilogun or Merindilogun or cowries speaking through orixa that some priests call ifa but no ikin or Opele were cast before the Nigerian ifa trend.
Yes. African Americans, Mexicans, Trinidadians, etc. also all go to Nigeria to learn Ifa (or to bring back the lessons of Ifa to teach in the diaspora). We are all very proud of our Yoruba roots.
Yerba as the Fulanis had mentioned it first to the first European which latter became Yoruba somewhere in the early 1800s, and was in fact a corruption of Evweh which the fulanis could not pronounce properly. The so-called Yorubas and the Fon, the Ge, the Mina and many others of the the are closed by which was known as the "slave coast" are all Evweh. The land used to be called the Evwehland or the Negroland to the Europeans.
Their languages are linked to each other and each slightly different people can understand each other easily.
Take the 1884 European borders off and all you have is no Nigeria, nor Benin, Togo, Ghana but Evwehland.
Ikin was the very first form divination
mike Olawale ☀💛🌻🙌😄
I learned that the Ifa has 256 'signs' or energies. And maybe the Yoruba is a little different from the form discussed in this presentation. Yet the Yoruba method makes complete sense to me. Those who have been in computers for more than the last 20 years will recognize that number: 256. When I found out a few years ago that the Ifa contained those number of characters I understood that it must be a very powerful and *complete* form of divination. The language that is used to communicate with computers at the *hardware* level is called ASCII and it has 256 characters! It has a full range of operational connections that predict operations and directs them accordingly. Isn't that the essence of Ifa's concepts? Yet FA is thousands of years older than ASCII. Aboriginal people are filled with ancient and immense knowledge and power. That is why Europe is so covetous. They want what they do not and can not ever have: Universal Knowledge.

This just proves that we were all the same people. I'm Igbo (Nigerian) and the spirit/god of divination is called afa.

Uhuru I was told the same thing about you..........You are highly favored every where ..........You are loved by many..............Therefore whatever you want is yours for the asking.............I read your aura the first time I saw you!!!!!! You bring happiness and peace to everything !!!!!!
Without ifa there is no computer
The only thing the White man truly created is the PATENT office and for one purpose..To steal from the ever giving black man. They call Ifa evil in the day and secretly visit our priest in the dark to learn about our knowledge and they develop it and patent it as if they owned it. They are just thieves.
In Cuba where I’m from, one doesn’t just choose to be an Ifa priest, like one choosing a new pair of pants. It’s inherited by paternal lineage.

Much truth to this; I was instructed in Voodoo as a family culture from my dad and elders in my family. I literally took me until my early 30s that this is a religion or belief system and not just familial cultural practices. I swear living in the U.SA. warps our perception and understanding of many things.
The USA, sole purpose was to hid EVERYTHING!.... they stole, hid, destroyed a LIED to us about our history period..... they know is better than we know ourselves.....they study us for so long....they know the truth and they know our Strength when "United".... thier Biggest fear to this day is black people UNITING!...
@@veolajohnson6182 That wasn't my my education. I was schooled in Los Angeles and we did learn (albeit briefly) that voodoo was a religion practiced in the Caribbean, Africa, and elsewhere.
Can i have a means of contact for you
Just got initiated... Peoe have no clue of the truth of this forum of Magik. Magik is what this world is made of. In time ifa reve to all. Thank you so much for sharing!!
Dynast the instrument used in divination. Is called an Opele in the Yoruba language. It is used to read the combinations of the 16 Odu. An Odu is an energy pattern that contains stories, remedies and taboos that is given to the person being read. The Opele is the diving tool of an Awo/Babalawo/Ifa priest. You are doing good work brother. Peace and blessings!
Ase ooo!
Brotha, our MAIN divination tool is the ikin...not the opele. Yes we use opele, but understand this.....the spiritual energy of Ifa is consecrated into our ikin. Thus it is our main divination tool....it IS our Ifa. You recieve Ikin during initiation to (Orunmila) Ifa. It is also what tells us our birth Odu...etc etc. For whomever makes Itefa must recieve their ikin. It is also our tool of worship.
This is a great step brother. You are doing a search and seeking the truth. You get more freedom going through this path.Blessings to you for visiting Africa.
Thank you brother and please share. More videos are coming
Excellent documentary Dynast! Thanx for sharing. When I was there in October I didn't have a chance to meet with the Babalawo (IFA priest) or Sa Majeste Daagba. Next time I go, it's imperative that I meet with the Babalawo as I'm also an IFA priest. IFA is my lineage as well as Vodoun. Thank you for all the works you're doing, and have a great time! Give my greetings to Majeste Daagba if you talk with him again. Tell him I look foward to meeting him soon.
Thank you fam
Going to the origin is where you find the truth. Thank you

It is !!!! Although I’ve never experienced it .... I would love to live this side of life and I know they desire my side of life ..... we always want what we don’t have
Why do you keep on asking about "Ifa" vs "Fa"?? They explained to you 3 times that it's the same thing just different language. It's like you can't hear what they saying...
Straight lol
its not the samething. Fa and IFA have 256 different chapters..they mean different things and the gods of the two corpus are different. They are both divination but its different in technics and corpus.
Philippe Mudaheranwa haha 😂 you are confused.
Beautiful. I am from puerto rico. Over 500,000 africans were shipped here to repopulate the island and work the mines after spaniard decimation of the native population here. Majority of the africans who came here were from the yoruba tribe but also kongo, bantu, and even twa. Since such a high number of yoruba and others of various african empires came here to the island we were able to preserve the ancient yoruba spirituality which predates religions that our ancestors were forced on like christianity and Islam by thousands of years! My guardian orisa is elegba or eleggua in other translations. Thank you for the video brother. It's a great thing. Ase'

Im glad you enjoyed.
Vodun is a Fon and Ewe thing. The french changed it to Voodoo in their own langugage. Vodun simly means spirits. in Yoruba Irunmole is translated as Spirit even when the word spirit doesn't convey it full meanings. IFA is not just Nigerian. IFA is Yoruba and Yoruba are indigenous people of Togo and Benin. so IFA is also TOGO and Benin but most non Yoruba says AFA.
Thank to all in video, truly appreciated truths and openness. Yes to much people creating distortions. Blessings to you all💗💫
The Interviewer needed to do his homework before asking the same questions over and over again. However, much positivity for at least attempting the interview.
That was his own personal journey and learning.. I applaud researcher bcz as he was learning and growing and genuinely reconnecting , growth is a process, he was naturally learning in his own process, it was his divine timing, I really appreciated his openness and vulnerability to share with us. Hes a Truth teller and Truth seeker. It was so refreshing these videos.
I love watching your videos about religion and spirituality in Africa.. particularly west Africa 🌍
I love the tour, lovely, learning, thanks. You make me went to come to those wonderful places wow..
Brotha what kind of camera and model are you using? Great quality and sound..
Its the Sony a7r II but Im going to get rid of it, It cant handle the African heat.
Overheats, cuts off randomly while Im recording, it has to go.
Bro Dynast, which camera would you use instead?
I would go Canon or Nikon, unfortunately I'm vested in Sony because of the lenses I bought. I would like the Nikon D850 but I would probably get the Sony a7r III since of my Sony lenses
Search for Uhuru try and see if there is anything called a conversion/adaptor ring for the lens you like or the camera you want to get. I used to do photography before the digital revolution and I could switch different lenses between different cameras with an adaptor ring. But this was years ago so I don't know how things are with photography equipment today. I don't know if all lenses are under strict proprietorship of the individual companies they are made but it's worth investigating to see if it is possible to get an adaptor ring to better suit your needs.
He said iboru , iboya , ibosheshe the same way as afrocuban ifa traditions. So I believe that our afrocuban ifa had influences from this country too.
I wander what the ifa said about the white man before colonization?
Nothing. Because there was nothing to be said. Also, if you study well Ancient European traditions and religions, they were very similar to the Ifa, specially the Celtic tradition.
Maybe they didn't ask
Kemeticos disagreed
People believe african spirits warned us about the white man
Black Pro I want to ask my ifa guy lol fr
AFAN" is science
Like my mum could not give birth to ME after 11 months. So when all doctors refused to do the delivering. My parents consulted afan.

There are folks while I travel this journey who walk along with me parallel as I learn and you are one of them. 🤘
My Dude Dynst... congrats on your work. The spelling voodoo is the Hollywood bastardization of the word pronounced Vodun. Sounds like vo-doon. There are spells in bedded in the alteration of a word. When I was younger for instance...being from Ayiti I always felt off saying Haiti... Sounds like saying Hate first. Even in the country now the subtle IMF imprints of monetary colonization has the people particularly in gov't spelling it as H.a.i.t.i. . It is to be pronounced and spelled Ayiti. Just something to think about. Nuff respect to you.
Hmm
Ayiti translates to beans plant ( ayi is the generic name for all beans and ati is tree or plant..Ayiti) in Ewe just so you know.... Being most of you are of Ewe origin.
Just saying, don't know if that's the origin
hahahaha I loved the end, when You say "that's it ?" , i could totally imagine your thoughts! like ... Fo'reeeeeal Bro? I came all the way down here to hear i shall give sweets to beggars? (As if i wasn't doin dat?! this work is fine pastry for the hungry mind!) / UUUHahahahahahh !!!!! I feel you ! Been there so many times!!! Is it not marveling? it makes me laugh. fortunately for me it's just a train ride away, to go hear dat ! I so much appreciate and love these videos you made. Great Ashe in you. Aren't we living in marvelous days ? For you to meet this man and us to see this ? I am so thankful !
Did you speak Fon. What the priest said were correct but the guy (translater) didn't translate properly...
He said "search Uhuru" are lucky to look for his root and must do it for the good of the whole family (mother house and father house includes black commuty)..
.His work (searching root) will make him GREAT and Rich. He (priest)said Uhuru will encounter difficulties throughout his work by giving to the poor and the needed he will succeed... No difficulties by giving to the poors and needed (charity)

Question: Were you in the country Benin or the city Benin of Nigeria?
Thanks for sharing your videos are helpful and appreciated!
The Priest was telling you to give when you have because that is where your blessings come from!

I like that the translation of ifa is the oracle. I understood that b4 i knew it but it just reassures me. Maferefun ochun
Do you need a priest?
I was told the same when I initiated into afa in Togo
You are an oracle?
Yes, ifa originates with the Yoruba(nago) people. The Fon'nu people asked the Yoruba to teach them when the oyo empire ruled over the Fon'nu tribe. The orisha way of life is not the same as voodoo.
What steps would you recommend if one wanted to begin their journey by visiting the center of Vodoun?

I want to practice IFA, but I’m afraid of spiritual and afterlife repercussions, since I am coming from Christianity.
ceolag1 lol you need to do research & ask yourself do you really think the creator a being thats much greater than us. Would send us to an eternal torture chamber called hell over a bunch of stories that we CANT prove, thats wrong a real supreme being doesn’t have to avenge people over beliefs & not FACTS. Dont let religion control you man foreal religion was used as a control tactic.

Hello Dynast, another great video as usual!
Bro look like west brook nba player
Very nice... content
The Benin Empire ( Edo, Nigeria ) used to span from Cameroon to Ghana before colonialism. I know the 1st Oba of Benin was the son of an exiled Prince in Benin (Nigeria) who ruled Ile -Ifa and other tribes. So back then exiled princes rule neighboring tribes. Back then There was no Togo, Benin, Nigeria (borders)
You people are stealing Yoruba Culture and you are rewriting our History
Since he is an Ifa, how can we consult with him??? This was interesting, and I would love to learn more. In other words I'd love a reading.

Good job brother.
What are your thoughts on that reading? It seemed a little bit generic.
I put him on the spot, so I wasn't expecting a full reading.
This was a sample
Dynast, I am confused about the title of the video. Are you saying that the Ifa priest was a fake?
No, How should I rename the video so there is no confusion?
I am not sure because I did not really catch the point you was trying to make except that it mentioned" fake ifa priest".But what you got now is a little more understandable.
Please can you help with good Ifa priest in Ouida.

You went to the source but you did not speak to the sorcerers. That was one step towards understanding but they fail to tell you the core beliefs because you were a black man. Sad to say, but extremely true. Remember slavery started in North-East Africa and worked its way to the West of Africa with the Moors and the Fulani. By the time, Dahomey and Oyo empire were built, Nubia was governed by Arabs. Indeed the birthplace of vodou is Dahomey.
Make sense
Based on his advice you have something to do with vodoun legbe and maybe tohossou or hohovi

Voodoo and IFA is not the same thing.
Voodoo is spirit
IFA is Orisha
And Orisa is spirit
I am grateful for voodoo because their intentions reach farther and further beyond reality. I never knew how much it took for e pluribus unum to work. We should all thank our predecessors for their collective protection. That's all I've ever had to survive amongst the living.
Know a little about the African religions that were taken
Afa is Igbo. Afa in Igbo means name. It is called afa because that is the science through which our dibias find the name of a disease or problem.

Voodoo is a culture a way of Living, but people who use it to abuse the people who don't know. That's why you see people having hard ships because of the negative people misusing the practice. Mostly free Masons

Fa and ifa are different. They work with different spirits but orunmila and lomila are the same deity. The stories in the verses are different as well, the languages, the taboos, the initiation a little bit.
are the odus the same?
So voodoo and ifa is pretty much the same thing with just different rituals and language? Good video 👍

Ouidah means Judah which is the tribe of Judah
That already has been debunked, check the videos on that.
Yes!! Yuda as no "J" in the Hebrew (Evweh) alphabets . The whole area from Ghana to Nigeria on the southern and the mid belt used to be the Evwehland also known to the Europeans as the Negroland.
Anita's Educational Page bullshit
She's actually right.
@@Searchforuhuru I've seen the video on that debunked theory and I have met the fellow brother who debunked it in person, as we live in the same country. I even had a short conversation with him. You see, Ouidah may not necessary be a corruption of Judah, but to say that the black people of Israel didn't make it into Africa is fallacy, they did.
I am a Nigerian, from the Ijebu tribe and we know for a certain that we are the same peoples of the Biblical Jebusites. WE refer to ourselves till date as 'Jebus. In Yorubaland, names are vitally important and curiously, both Yoruba & Ijebu means absolutely nothing.
Oral tradition also place us as coming from the far east and that can only be from Jerusalem or Ijebu-Isale, that is, down town erusalem. Don't forget that David captured Jerusalem, but didn't destroy it nor its people, but only occupied the mountainous side and fortified her, meaning oke-ijebu upper Jerusalem. It is not academically accurate to outrightly debunked the fact that Judah is not mixed in Africa...There are countless biblical cultures found in Africa, even before any white man dared enter Africa, that is still practiced today in Africa, such as circumcision, naming of babies on the 8 day, belief in one God (Eledumare), as you can never see a statue or graven image of the supreme God in any African society, and the orishas are just angels or messengers of Olodumare, just as in the bible. If circumcision is a pact between God & Abraham, how then did Africans practice it, if Israel was white? Don't debunk all theories, some have deeper intertwining's than you know.
