Obatala We come to pay homage to you today. This song talks about Obatala wearing white, riding a white horse. And he speaks to his greatness. It speaks to the purity that he walks with every day. Not just his clothes are white, even his horse’s white. Saying that everything around him reflects the spirit that’s within him. May we walk with a pure mind today, a pure spirit, and may the purity that’s within us reflect with all of the things that are around us. May Obatala bring us the blessings of purity today.

Orunmila is a spiritual force that uses Ifa to transform the life of all, and even to bring people back from the dead, as told in this story told by Chief Ifayemi Elebuibon the Araba of Osogbo, Nigeria. This title is like the King of all traditionalist in the city. This interview was conducted by yours truly Chief Alaje on my podcast Inside The Oracle on YouTube. May Ifa answer our prayers and manifest our blessings today and everyday.

When we honor the Orisa through music, song, and dance we our soul connects with their soul that happens in away that’s unique. Have you ever felt the Orisa while listening to a song ?

Imagine that the Orisa exist on a frequency and tuning into that frequency is similar to tuning into a radio station that has a specific number on the dial. To tune in to the frequency of the Orisa, is just like tuning into a radio station, you have to be able to adjust the knob left and right ever so slightly until you are in tune with that frequency. The ways that we tune ourselves to the frequency are through our Orisa songs and drumming, because the wavelength of the song is going to match the wavelength of the Orisa.
