WOW! I came home from work yesterday late at night, and your package was there, my GOD!!! What a beautiful Opele you picked out for me, If I was made to create a chain that reflects my true personality, and my deepest passions, it would be this opele its like every link of it tells a chapter of my life! I was going to write a big email describing my spiritual journey, but it would have resembled a book, and god knows I hate reading a big email!! I will sum up my thoughts like this, before Ifafoundation, I use to sleep with a light on, after Ifa Foundation, I sleep in the dark in perfect peace, NO FEAR!!!  I woke up to a new world, when I finally understood the true nature of the orisa’s, and the odu’s, What empowerment to know, I chose my orisa, not the other way, what a moment of truth to realize, my current life situations is my doing, and nothing else, and the true influence of fate is for me to pick up the opele, and IKIN.  I look forward to embracing my destiny, not for miracles or quick fixes, but for knowledge, and understanding!!

With great love,

Guillermo

Alafia Iya:

Yes, by all means we did make a connection and a very good one. You are an amazing woman J I value my connection, you made a major impression on me and I still carry your energy. You never know how what you say to a person will affect them, but when you said , “we seek to live Ifa”, that struck me in my soul , that is what I want to do LIVE IFA. The sixteen principles of the foundation appeal to me so greatly. IYA, I know you are under a lot and friendship is earned , so maybe in time I can earn your friendship and Baba’s confidence.

I am studying the material and find that the Ifa Foundation addresses everything that I have thought of. As I said early on I look forward to a long relationship. I want to learn more and in time I would like to be able to give, however at this point I see myself as a very young student excited about learning.

The manner in which you work is very inspiring .

I just wanted to take the time out and send a thank you.  As I grow more in Ifa I learn more about myself and in turn learn more about that which surrounds me.  It is a bit odd to wake up one morning and realize that I’m not as a good person as I have always thought I was.  What is probably even odder is that it is the work that is done by caring individuals such as you, 3 states away that causes such shifts in my life.  I realize that I can be an extremely difficult person at times and I guess you could say even a little too much Ogun at times as well.  Luckily there are patient understanding people such as you and Phil to deal with people like me.  I am eternally grateful that the universe has allowed such patience with me, and that I have been allowed the opportunity to better myself and my life through Ifa and your school of thought, which I have slowly realized, is probably the highest form of Ifa that is taught today. There is no doubt in my mind that your teachings have laid the ground work for the future of Ifa that may not be fully appreciated for another hundred years or so.  This gift of Ifa has changed my life thus far more than anything else and I realize that I have barely scratched the surface.  Thank you for this gift of Ifa, for that, I am eternally grateful for.  Many Blessings.

I am still as they say, a novice, but have noticed that by putting in time, effort and doing the work, Ifa does work and can make a change

I am grateful and appreciative of the Ifa Foundation, the Oluwo, and the work that you do. Thank you for sharing your information, knowledge and time to all those who truly are interested in learning about Ifa and changing their lives for the better.

Blessings!
