Secrecy exists only as a way of controlling others for the personal power or enrichment of the Priest in charge.

Ultimately, everyone comes to a spiritual philosophy to get results. These results may vary from inner peace, to physical health; from promises of immortality, to protection from harm; from personal success, to emotional fulfillment. While each philosophy tends to offer a different set of requirements to achieve these goals.or in some cases to dissuade and make you feel guilty for even wanting them.the bottom line for individuals is: "does it work?"

Most Western, and some Eastern, religions avoid this question by telling you that this life is not important. It is the next life that counts. So, your lack of loving relationships, material comforts or robust health, is viewed as some form of pay back for your having been born human, with human failings. And, according to these same religions, "it won't matter anyway, it's the next life that's important.

Ifa is unique in that it is focused on this life! Ifa is about making your life better.NOW! And, the way the wise men and women of the ancient Yoruba culture found to accomplish this, was to develop an understanding of the subtle matrix of the universe we are part of, and then formulate the instructions for bettering our lives within it.

These instructions are logical integrated concepts that allow an individual to repair ill health, poor relationships or monetary hardships. They allow those who have been unable to have children to conceive; those that have been unable to find love, to be loved; those that have been unable to provide, to achieve abundance.

In order to utilize these instructions, you must learn them. And you cannot learn them from syncretized philosophies that have welded the inconsistencies, fear dependency and secrecy of Western religions into their fabric. You must learn them with the clarity and comprehension that allows you personal empowerment! Empowerment that frees you from the dependence and subservience of those who would keep this knowledge to themselves.

Ifa is about personal growth. Without shared knowledge there can be no growth.there can only be an enslaved ile', always dependent upon the secret knowledge of another to improve or repair their lives. Ifa is not about secrecy.it is about knowledge. Secrecy exists only as a way of controlling others for the personal power or enrichment of the Priest in charge. It is not the way it was meant to be.

At the Ifa Foundation we teach! We share our knowledge so that you can achieve personal growth and empowerment in you life. There are no secrets! For those of you tired of the fear, the secrecy, the dependence on others, I invite you to attend our American Ifa Workshop this January in Deland, Florida. In a three day span you will learn the basic instructions on working with the orisa, with your ancestral energies, with your powerful Ori! You will learn about cleansings for health and spiritual purposes. You will see the actual orisa, learn to understand their energy and use it to positively change your life.

Make your New Year's resolution one of Personal Empowerment!

I hope to see you there.
