GENERAL INFORMATION FOR OBARA MEJI CHILDREN OR PERSON WHO CAST OBARA MEJI DURIN IKOSEDAYE(FIRST IFA DIVINATION FOR NEW BORN BABY) OR DURING ITEFA(IFA INITIATION).

The messages explain below explain both the positive and negative traits of Obara meji children. It talks about both the physical and spiritual aspect of their life journey, their strong and weaker point and both their positive and negative side.

Obara-Meji children are usually very rich in life because they brought their luck and opportunities of success from the ikole orun (heaven) . No matter the initial tribulations, these people will triumph in the end. Their success usually comes in a very miraculous way. They however need to be very careful in the art of managing their success. This is because success easily enters their head and could lead them to behave badly or be rude to elders or constituted authorities. Because success for Obara-Meji's children is assured, education about management and control of success is a must.obara meji ' Children must learn to be well behaved.

As explain earlier, even though when success is guaranteed for the children of Obara-Meji they triumph better as individuals than as a group. They therefore need those profesion or carreer where they can stand out as independent individuals . These profession include, the practice of Ifa, Medicine, Pharmacy, works of sculpture, architecture, fashion designer, fine art, counaduria, or establishes as a single man of business enterprise. They can sell groceries and include pumpkins in their sales but they will never be able to subsist like a farmer.

For the sons of Eji-Obara, humility, sincerity, wisdom, foresight, righteousness, honesty and purity are part of their qualities which increase the chances of success in life. The sons of Obara-Meji also need to listen to the good advice of their wives as their advice will pave the way for their greatness. They also need to treat their wives with all considerations at all times and to give them due respect. Apart from this, Obara-Meji's sons have more success than they choose; For them to handle two things at the same time is difficult, when they feel that they can not handle two things to the race. Some risk-taking measures are part of the things that keep Obara-Meji's children marching. Moreover, the more children they have, the greater will be their prosperity and success.

Obara-Meji's children have the incredible ability to survive calamities, wars, uprisings, or upheavals, they will not only survive this, they will also be responsible for the survival of their loved ones. This ability is born. That is why it is very rare to see the children of Obara-Meji die violent deaths. It is nevertheless very useful for the children of Obara-Meji to produce a point of duty to be speaking kola nuts for Eriwo to consume regularly. By doing this, the long life is improved. They will live relatively long and in comfort and peace of mind. The fact that Obara-Meji's children survive disasters and disorders does not give them leave to take undue risks or to be unwise in their daily activities. Ifa does not protect anyone who behaves stupidly or recklessly.

These children, despite their qualities, are headstrong and recalcitrant. They harshly want to spend money on menso that is compulsively for them to do that. These are the parts of the attitudes which must be domesticated to a manageable limit, if not can be totally eliminated. A large number of Obara-Meji children have the habit of challenging elders and constituted authorities. They love to deny to the elders what belongs to them with just reason. This attitude must also be discouraged since it never bodes well for them. They have the tendency to forget their sufferings and difficulties on the road to success once they reach the top. They boast, complain, and intimidate people. For doing this they end up accumulating opposition and enemies. If this could also be stopped, the children of Obara-Meji will be loved, respected and exalted in the community.

They were the Awos who divined for Eji-Obara

When he

was going on an Ifa mission to the Olofin palace

He was advised to offer ebo

The three Awos mentioned above told Obara-Meji that he would triumph where he was going and that he could be the one to save his other colleagues from disgrace and humiliation. He was informed that where he was going, there were three main problems; One, the first son and the apparent heir to Olofin was very sick and he was on the brink of death. They told him about the proper ebo that should be offered to aspire for a speedy recovery of the sick son; Two, one of Olofin's wives was pregnant and about to give birth; And three, Olofin wanted to know what to do to live more on the throne of his ancestors. They also recommended the appropriate ebo so that Olofin would live more on the throne.

To make it possible for Eji-Obara to had success in the palace of Olofin, the Awo advise him to offer ebo with 3 white pigeons, 3 guineas, linen, red clothes, black clothes and money. He was also advised to to feed Ifa with 4 rats, 4 fish, a hen and money. He obeyed. After this he was advised not to go with the group to the palace of Olofin. He was told to go alone after the other 15 Odus had gone on the trip.

While in his house, Eji-Obara decided to feed his Ifa as prescribed by the Awo. In the period when he was doing this, all 15 remaining Odus were waiting for him at the agreed point. When they did not see him, they decided to go call him so they could all go together at the same time.

They found Eji-Obara feeding his Ifa with 4 rats, 4 fish and a hen. He told the others that he was busy and that there was no need for them to wait for him to finish what he was doing. He asked them to proceed to Olofin's palace and that he would meet with them there as soon as he had finished venerating Ifa. The others left for the palace of Olofin and Eji Obara continued feeding his Ifa.

In the Olofin palace, the remaining 15 major Odus consulted Ifa for Olofin. They predicted the ire of riches, good wife, more brilliant opportunities for success and many more children for Olofin. They advised him to offer ebo with rat, fish, rams, goats and pigeons. Olofin agreed to do the work he was not completely satisfied since those were not the reasons why he had summoned the Awos to do ifa consultation for him. Olofin ordered his assistants to procure all sacrificial

Items of the ebo for the Babalawos. The materials were searched. As soon as this was done the Babalawos wanted to offer the ebo. While they were preparing to do this, Eji-Obara entered the palace of Olofin. other Odus told him that they had consulted Ifa for Olofin and Obara-Meji was revealed, Eji-Obara Now started to interpret the message of the odu to Olofin thus:that

Olofin summoned all the major Odus because of three major events in his life; One, his first son was sick; Two, one of his wives was on the verge of childbirth and he was keeping the fear that something was not right with her; And third, he wanted to know what he needed to do to live more and happily on the throne of his ancestors. He advised Olofin to offer ebo with a goat so that his first son would get well; Another goat for his wife to give birth in safely, And even, granted him to obtain the victory over the death .Olofin was happy and he make make sacrifices prescribed by Eji Obara, all the prediction of Obara begin to manifest with immediate effect. Olofin shower Obara meji with gifts of horses in various colours, white, black, red etc. And some other valuable possession and money and slave, it is Ejiobara that save the rest of the Odu from disgrace. Ejiobara says that is exactly what his babalawo has predicted.

COMMENTARIES OR LESSON FROM THE VERSE OF OBARA MEJI ABOVE

No matter how high or lowly place you are in life if you fail to seek help advice when thing are wrong or beyond your control,then you may be finding it difficult to make headway in life. As you can see in the odu ifa above, when Olofin (the king) have problems he try to he invited the sixteen major odu to to divine for him. The sixteen principal odu their self did not rely on their expertise rather than they turn to other Preist to divine for them on how their mission will be successful at the palace of Olofin.

ii.Always have individuals plan or strategy apart from the one you have with group of people. Contingency plan is neccesary when you are acting with the group of people. As you can see in the odu Obara meji above.

The army of the Oba was as true as tincture of indigo

They were advised to offer ebo

The Emese of the world was disturbed, and Amiragba the Emperor of the Blacksmiths were apprehensive of war that is rising from three different directions.

The crisis was so imminent that everyone in the communities believed that the uprising may erupte overpower them at any moment. Agunragba and Agmiragba did not want the war to reach the communities they represented . At the same time, they wanted to ward off this war before any serious harm was caused.

For these reasons they went to meet a group of Awo mentioned above. The Awo advised them to offer ebo with mature goat and several barrels of alcohol. They obeyed. After this, the Awo advised them to go and call Agbe-dudu, the scion of the dyers, Aluko-dioodo, the scion of Osun's bruises and Odidere-Mofe, the scion of Oniuwoo-Ate, the king of the City of Iwo. They went and called these three warriors. They explained the situation on earth and in heaven to them. These warriors divided their soldiers between them. Each group was headed by Agbe-dudu, Aluko-dodoodo and Odidere-Mofe.

Agbe-dudu attacked the army on the side of the right hand, carried them into the virgin land and they never returned for a rematch. Aluko-dodoodo drew the army to the left side of the hand, chased the army into the forest and completely dominated it. Odidere-mofe confronted the army stationed at the front, completely defeated him and pursued them into the mountain. Victory was then assured. After these parties, they launched a huge party where everyone ate and drank to their satisfaction.

While this celebration was taking place, they counted and found that the people whom Agunragba and Amiragba represented were all complete without losing one soul in the war. They also discovered that they were all bubbling with health and vitality. They realized that there was more solidarity and cooperation among the inhabitants than ever before. Everyone was therefore dancing, singing and drinking. When they emptied a few barrels of alcohol, they left and brought more. They began to praise the two Agunragba and Amiragba that no war, uprising, pandemonium or crisis could ever defeat them. Since no war could defeat them, it followed that no war or uprising will ever defeat or overcome Obara meji children. They were happy and rejoicing. They say that is exactly what their babalawo has predicted.

The army of the Oba was gather thickly as tincture of indigo

And they were looking straight at them

The army of the Oba was as true as tincture of indigo

They were advised to offer ebo

They obeyed

They also asked them to send a message to Agbe-dudu

The stem of the dye manufacturers

And they will send a message to Aluko-dodoodo

The stem of osun crushers (red wood)

And they will send a message to Odidere-Mofe

The scion of the Oba ode Iwo-Ate

Agbe-dudu, the stem of the manufacturers of dye arrive

And he beat the army on the right hand side

And he chases them right up to the virgin land

Aluko-dodoodo, the stem of the breakers of Osun arrive

And he beat the army on the left hand side

And he chase them into the woods completely

Odidere-Mofe the scion of Oniwoo-Ate arrive

And Beat to the army right in front of them

And he chase them into the bush

Ifa, you ask, are you complete?

Or are not you full?

We replied that we are complete

Even like 200 small slugs

Ifa again, you ask, are you healthy

Or are you not healthy?

We answer that we are healthy

Even as the stones of the river

Ifa,ask you're energized.

Or are you not energized?

We respond that we are energized

Even as a mature horse

No storm will blow and take away a mortar

And no wind will blow and take away a crushing stone

These were the declarations of Ifa for Agunragba

The emeso of the world

And for Amiragba

The emeso of the blacksmith

I do not see any war that must be made

That would overwhelm Agunragba

Now, Agunragba, we hail you

And Amiragba, we praise you

Ifa alcohol is not over yet

There is still drink inside the barrels

All praiseto Agunragba

And Amiragba

Ifa says that if he or she is suffering presently, the suffering will soon disappear. Ifa says that if the person for whom this Odu is revealed is a man, he needs to listen to his wife regularly because it is through his wife that his prosprerity will come.

Translation:

The tribulation explains the attractive blue water of dyeing

And suffering explains the grinding of the soaked maize

After grinding endless soaked maize

one goes to fetch wrapping leaves in the forest

And then give sounds like a wood-hewer bird

Kola nuts is what people are responsible for selling

Those were the Ifa divined for Osunfununleyo

The wife of Orunmila

When she and Orunmila were going on an Ifa business mission

To a distant place, far as the day itself

They were advised to offer ebo

Orunmila, despite its effectiveness and efficiency, was not successful. He was suffering. He did not have money. He had very few clients. If he attended to a client one day, it would take several days before he get another one to attend to. If he had a certain amount one day, he would spend it all and suffer for more days before he would get more money. For more than the deal, there was no improvement. He however knew and have assurance that the situation would change for the better. He was sure that luck would smile on him, but how soon? He was not sure. He continued perserverando. However he had the dream of becoming a great man and an Ifa priest realized in his life. He knew that he was the most understood Babalawo on earth since he was the one who brought the Art to the world, but he had very little to show for his experience and deep knowledge of the Art of Ifa. He was however ready to wait until the moment his value in the community would be commensurable with his knowledge of his work.

The poverty of Orunmila had crushed over his wife, Osunfunnleyo. She was suffering equally. She had no money, she used to go for blue water and sold it at an incredible cheap price before she could eat. This was not even in high demand. She had to find a client today and then it would take several days before she found another. When the blue water was not needed by her clients, she went in search of those who had soaked corn to grind. If she found one, she would grind for them in a token. This work was very demanding in terms of energy and health. She had no choice but to do it, except if she planned to die of hunger. Sometimes after grinding the corn, she would go inside the bush to look for leaves to pack it for the leaf soaks for them to use them to pack the corn flour for sale. All these tasks were done at a very ridiculous price. Sometimes it was firewood what she was going to look for in the woods to cut down for others. This also used to attract a little money for her. She could not change her clothes since the money she was making was not enough for such luxury. She however had the ambition of becoming a kola nut seller. This ambition remained a mere dream since she did not have money to transfer her dream into reality.

One day, Orunmila got tired of life in her locality. He decided to travel and try his luck elsewhere. He called his wife and informed him of his decision. Upon hearing this, Osunfunnleyo approached the group of Awos mentioned above for consultation of Ifa. This group was trained by Orunmila. She wanted to know what her new serious address would be like for them. She also wanted to know if it was wise or not for them to move from their present location.

This Awo I assure her that success was at hand; Which was so close that they could almost touch it; That it was wise for them to move out of their present location because success was already waiting for them in their new place; That the success to which he referred was coming to them from three different directions; And that such success would spell the end of his sufferings and necessities in life. They advised however that Orunmila should pay attention to the advice and warnings of his wife and he obliged. Orumila took to his wife advice, the journey turn to be a successful and prosperous mission for them.

To a distant place, far as the day itself

They were advised to offer ebo

They obeyed

They marked the hut full of money with chalk

They marked the hut full of accounts with Osun

They marked the hut full of materials with carbon

My practice partner of Ifa

All the contents of the three huts belong to the Awo.

Ifa says that the tribulation and sufferings of the person for whom this Odu is revealed and his wife will come to an end soon. Ifa says that they are capable of actualizing their potential in life and that their dreams will come true. In fact, they will triumph more than they think is possible in their wildest imaginations.

COMMENTARIES AND LESSON FROM ODU IFA ABOVE.

i.Perseverance in one chosen trade or profession lead to success.

ii. Unity and cooperation between husband and wife or partner in trade lead to success.taking advice from one wife or partner can pave way for success has explain in the verse of Obara meji above.

Ifa says that there is a person where this Odu has been revealed to who has been given a responsibility to act, but this person is using the privileges that accompany this responsibility to perpetuate atrocities. Ifa says that this person has been presuming his own designs for the deterioration of the responsibility that has been given to him or her. Ifa however warns this parson in question to give up on this atrocity before he is humiliated and dishonored.

Ifa warns against someone who is misusing public funds; Or are using their position to intimidate others; Or is taking improper advantage of others. Ifa says that if he or she does not give up; He or she is a sure candidate for dishonor and public ridicule.

This person is advised to offer ebo with 3 roosters and money. He is also advised to give up doing anything that could put him in shame. A stanza in this Odu is giving credence to this statement saying:

Kesekese la n ri

A o tii ri kasakasa

Kasakasa n bo leyin

Baba kesekese

Dia fun Agbigboniwonran

Ti nlo ree da’de nile Olofin

Ebo ni won ni ko se

Translation:

Success is what we are looking for

We have not seen the dishonor

Disgrace is coming along the road

The father of success (the effect of dishonor is deeper than that of success)

These were the declarations of Ifa for Agbigboniwonran

When he was going to perfum the ritual of Osun in the palace of Olofin

He was advised to offer ebo

Agbigboniwonran was very good at the art herbal medicine, and rituals healing through osun energy.For these reasons many people wanted his assistance whenever they wanted to venerate Osun. They would either come to his house or he go to theirs. Unknown to many people however, He always took advantage of his position as a veteran follower of Osun to perpetrate his dishonorable act. Whenever a child was ill, he recommended giving Osun rituals to the mother at home. When the mother brought the child, he insisted on making love to the mother before treating the child and venerate Osun for her son. he made sure that all the invulnerable women made love to him before he would be satisfied. After making love to them, he threatened them with terrible consequences if they would tell someone. If a woman was sick, he would make love to her before treating her. He usually do this even in their marrital house. He had no respect for anyone when it came to that,for fear of being brutally killed, none of her victims ever confessed to anyone what Agbigboniwonran had done to them.

One day, one of Olofin's wives was seriously ill. All the medicines they administered on her proved ineffective. She shut herself up consuming herself. She could not eat or drink. As a last resort Agbigboniwonran was invited.

To be able to succeed in his assignment, he went to the house of the Awo, previously mentioned for consultation of Ifa: What was he to do to be able to cure Olofin's wife of his illness? Would it be the one recognized and praised by Olofin? Would Olofin compensate him properly for a job well done if he succeeded in healing his wife? The Awo assured him that curing Olofin's wife was not a problem but he needed to offer ebo so he would not be humiliated. The Awo told him that even though he was a competent practitioner of Osun, he was nonetheless acting in vilification of social morality. He was warned to give up this act if he did not want to be humiliated and disfellowshipped. He was advised to offer ebo with three roosters and money.

When Agbigboniwonran heard this, he became angry. He told the Awo that the ebo prescribed for him was not necessary since he knew his form. He accuses the Awo of being envious of his achievements in life. Then challenge the Awo to wait to see how he maneuvered his form in the palace of Olofin. He came out suddenly from the house of the Awo later.

When he arrived at the palace of Olofin, he was taken to the room of the sick woman. He proved it and I assure Olofin that she would soon be well. He told Olofin that there was an urgent need for him to perform certain rituals for her. He told everyone present to apologize. They all went out of the room and Agbigboniwonran closed the door. He began to make love to Olofin's wife even though she was sick in her marriage bed. He started doing this twice a day, on a daily basis.

Meanwhile, Olofin made sure that Agbigboniwonran did not miss anything though. He was well fed, well dressed and given the best room, reserved only for the most important Olofin guests. After eating in the morning, he went and made love to Olofin's wife. After dinner, he went to do the same thing ,everyday under the pretext that what he was doing there was administering medicines to her. He was so accustomed to this unlawful act that he began to think that if he administered the correct medicine about her in the corresponding doses, the woman would soon recover and that meant the end of the "fun" in the palace of olofin, then he Therefore device the means to be sure to delay the medication as long as possible.

One day, Olofin's wife complained to Agbigboniwonran that she had not noticed much improvement in her present physical condition. She said that she did not want him to continue to make love to her anymore since she considered that contrary to the ethics of her profession and a taboo about Olofin's house. Agbigboniwonran was angry because she had the nerve to preach moral to him. He told her that she had lost her right to complain because he was the only person who knew what was good for her and no one else. The woman told him that if he did not give up, she would tell her husband all the things that were happening. This caused Agbigboniwonran to have panic. The threat that if she ever contemplated telling someone, she would die a violent death instantly, even before she narrates her experience to whomever she was planning to tell . He also threatened that if she dared to resist him, she would be paralyzed instantly. With these threats, he got away with it and left her totally confused. That same day, she summoned all her courage and told her husband everything that was happening to her husband.

As Olofin heard this, he became very furious and disillusioned.this event bring Agbigboniwonran to utter disgrace and humiliation.

Kesekese la n ri

A o tii ri kasakasa

Kasakasa n bo leyin

Dia fun Agbigboniwonran

Ti nlo ree da’de nile Olofin

Translation:

Success is what we are looking for

We have not seen the dishonor

Disgrace is coming along the road

The father of success (the effect of dishonor is deeper than that of success)

These were the declarations of Ifa for Agbigboniwonran

When he was going to perform the ritual of Osun in the palace of Olofin

He was advised to offer ebo

He refused outrightly

Agbigboniwonran is not applying any more remedies for me

But he was instead making love to me

Ifa says that the dishonor is coming from the corner for someone who has perpetrated evil but who felt that all the loopholes had been covered. Ifa says that such a person should change their form if he or she does not wish to face public hatred.

Ifa also says that someone or group who until now has been cheating on others will see through the evil designs of those who are cheating and their person or people who are cheating that they will soon be dishonored.

COMMENTARIES AND LESSON FROM THE VERSE OF OBARA MEJI ABOVE.

It is wrong and moraly and socialy reprehensible for people in position of authority such as babalawo,pastor,alfa,manager in office, professional like Doctors, pharmacist, lawyers, banker etc, political or administrative office holder, boss at work etc to use their privileges postion to take advantage of others. such as exploiting other sexualy or financial exploitation.

because if they engage in this kind of behavior, they will in disgrace and humiliation as in the case of Agbigboniwonran.

VI.

Ifa says that some young people have gone to take their hands to bring problems into their lives. Ifa says that through their speeches, behaviors and faces, problems have begun and these problems are beyond their capabilities. Ifa says that because of their stubbornness and lack of generosity with money, they have invited the misfortune into their lives and this is already affecting others who did not know anything about the problem. Ifa says that a lot of ebo and Etutu should be done so that these problems wane if they do not disappear all together.

Ifa says that invulnerablessed youth should be warned to purge themselves of their stubbornness and recalcitrance, since this will do them no good. They also need to do the following: offer ebo with a mature goat, feed Ogun with a dog, feed Osun with a rooster, dard to eat Osun with two slugs, feed Odu with two pigeons, Feed the elderly at night with 2 large rats, two hedgehogs, kola nuts and palm oil, feed Ifa with ripe goats, buy at least 16 bottles of different alcoholic drinks and wine for the Awo Present to drink to their satisfaction. Ifa says that it is by doing this that the darkness will leave the surroundings of those for whom this Odu is revealed. On these, a verse in Obara-Meji says:

O san pee, o san pee

O yo tororo, o yo tororo

We do not practice Ifa in the dark

We also do not practice Ifa in secret places

I'll have my eyes so I can see

Illumination

Please have my eyes so I can see

Illumination.

Ifa promises that all the misfortunes and disasters in the lives of those for whom this Odu is revealed will soon give way to enlightenment, peace, progress and prosperity. Ifa however warns him, that these people should not go and invite problems through ambition, lack of consideration, dishonesty and egocentrism.

COMMENTAREIS OR LESSON TO LEARN FROM THE ODU IFA ABOVE

Adolescent or youth should exercise moderation in their ambition so that they don't invite problems to their own life.

VII.

Ifa says that he foresees the flow of prosperity for the person for whom this Odu is revealed. Ifa says he or she does not need to hurry since their prosperity will come at the right time. Ifa says that the employment of the person for whom this Odu is revealed will make him or her large and great in life . Ifa says that he or she is to make ebo for prosperity and wait patiently for the moment to arrive.

Ifa says that there is a need for the person for whom this Odu is revealed to offer ebo with 3 white doves and money. Afterwards, he or she needs to venerate Ifa with pumpkin cooked with melon. Ifa says that with this ebo, sincerity, perseverance and patience, the success for the person for whom this Odu is revealed will surely Succeed.see what this verse of Obara meji have to say as regard this:

Ka m’efun ka fi to’le aje

Ka m’osun ka fi to’le ileke

Ka m’eeedu ka fi to’le aso

Akoda ori won kii rare I’ale oja

Dia fun Eji-Obara

Ti yoo se Ikeje Odu wale aye

Ti n ba won re’le olofin lo ree se’ebo

Ebo ni won ni ko se

Translation:

Let's mark the room full of money with chalk

And the room full of beads with osun

And the room full of clothes with charcoal

The first corn meal can never stay in the market for long

This was the Ifa launched for Eji-Obara

Who would come to the world as the seventh Odu

And who would accompany others in a mission to the Palace of Olofin

He was advised to offer ebo

When the 16 major Odus were coming into the world from the sky, Obara-Meji occupied the seventh position. He was advised to make sure to maintain that position all the time. He was advised never to aim for a higher position than this, since this position would bring unlimited opportunities to him. He was also advised to wait his turn after major major Odu: Eji-Ogbe, Oyeku-Meji, Iwori-Meji, Odi-Meji, Irosun-Meji, and Owonrin-Meji had taken their turn in whatever the group wished to do Before he introduced himself and took his own turn. He was advised never to be rushed in anything he planned to do. He took those advice and lived according to them.

While on earth, he always made sure that his seventh-number position was maintained. He never demanded for a higher position. He used to take his turn on all the things he did. He was never in trouble for anything in life. So, when Olofin invited the 16 major Odus again by consulting Ifa, he went to the Awo group mentioned earlier by his own Ifa query. He wanted to know what his chances of success were in Olofin's palace. The Awo informed him that he would be more successful than all his colleagues put together. He was advised to go alone, grasp the truth, take his turn and maintain the decorum. He was also advised to offer ebo with three white doves and money. He was told that he should also serve Ifa with pumpkin. The Awo informed him that Olofin needed to serve Ifa with pumpkin also so that there would be comfort, peace, progress and development in his community.

In the Olofin Palace, the 16 major Odus cast ifa divination for Olofin. One by one, beginning with Eji-Ogbe, they narrated the revelation of the Oracle to Olofin.

They all predicted peace, progress, comfort, development and well-being in general for Olofin and his subjects. They demanded for rams, goats, cows, rams, pigs, jewelry and expensive Olofin clothing materials. When it was the turn for Eji-Obara, he also predicted progress, peace, comfort and development for Olofin and his subjects. He told Olofin to offer ebo with three white doves and to serve Ifa with pumpkins. After this the rest report. The remaining Awos continued with their predictions and they advised Olofin to offer ebo with large animals like the others did.

In the end, Olofin was impressed with the level of humility and the transparent honesty deployed by Eji-Obara and decided to reward him accordingly. He gave all that the other remaining principal Odus advised to him who offered as ebo such as rams, goats, rams, goats, pigs, cows and others to those who demanded it and in the number in which they demanded it. He gave Eji-Obara three large pumpkins for his personal consumption and three more for him to feed Ifa as he had said. All of them left the palace of Olofin and dispersed to their respective houses. All of them were making faces at Eji-Obara for their demands and for receiving just three pumpkins for all their efforts. But surprisingly, Eji-Obara was very happy and satisfied with what he had received in the palace of Olofin,

Arriving home, Eji-Obara showed his wife what he had obtained from Olofin, and explained to her What was given to the other leading Odus. The wife suppressed anger against her husband by demanding only pumpkins. When Eji-Obara when he asked her to peel the three gourds intended to feed Ifa to Olofin's benefit she frankly refused, telling her husband who brought the pumpkins that he peeled them and prepared them all all by himself and served them to the Ifa.

Smoke enters the roof and rises to the sky

The smoke from the attic increases in a windy manner

This was the Ifa divined for Okanmbi

Who, after being nominated for a stool

He was not share any inheritance

He was advised to offer ebo.

Okanmbi is one of the sons of Olofin. He was the apparent heir to his father's throne. When Olofin his father was alive, Olofin was the Oba with vast resources. Olofin was the regent of Olodumare on earth. He possessed all things on earth. When Olofin was together with his ancestors, Okanmbi had traveled outside Ile-Ife during that time. Before he returned however, his brothers and sisters conspired against him and shared all that belonged to his father behind his back leaving nothing to him. When the return, many people expected a confrontation. They got involved with their other brothers against him. They thought that with nothing in his name, that would weaken him considerably when he finally assumed the throne of his father. His brothers became Obas in all other cities and towns around Ile-Ife.

Instead of putting a fight, he chose to approach the Awo mentioned above for consultation of Ifa: What would he do to obtain respect like the next Olofin without anything in his name except the title? Would he be able to overcome the conspiracy of the people? Was life as interesting as it had been for his father? These and other questions were those that waved his mind before the outside by consultation of Ifa. He wanted to be sure that it was worth the throne since he had been dismantled and stripped naked by his brothers.

The Awo assured him that he was going to succeed in life. He was told to go ahead and put the whole process of being installed as the moving Olofin. He was told that he would be the one who would inherit the world. He was also told that he would be bigger than all his brothers put together. He was advised to offer ebo, feed Ifa and Esu Odara as stated above. He obeyed. Soon after this period; He was installed as the next Olofin.

Shortly after the installation, he summoned all his brothers and claimed for his own part of his father's belongings. He was informed that there was nothing left. Esu Odara however became a human being and reminded everyone that they had not given the land to anyone. The other brothers thought that it was not much that could be done with the land except to cultivate it. They all decided to give the land to the Olofin. Esu Odara begged Olofin to accept the land in good faith. Olofin did. All the brothers were happy and dispersed to their various destinations. As soon as they left, Esu Odara told Olofin that he had been the one to whom they had given the most invaluable possession: He told Olofin that the implication of this was that all his brothers were only tenants in their land . Esu Odara asked Olofin to start asking for the rent immediately.

Like a cemetery after the meeting Okanmbi sent his messengers to all his brothers to bring news that they were tenants on their land and that they needed to bring the rents over the years basically. This is how they realized that they inadvertently made Okanmbi the heir of the whole world. They realized that everything that they would put on the earth belonged to the owner of the land. From that day, they all started paying rent on the land of Okanmbi. Those who could not afford the payment released some of the possessions they had inherited. This included crowns, jewelry, buildings, agricultural products, clothing materials, and other essentials of life. This is how Okanmbi became the greatest king of all generations. he was happy that, that is the exact prediction of his Awo

Translation:

These were the declarations of Ifa for Agbigboniwonran

Who would be the designer of the Orunmila coffin

He was advised to offer ebo

By the time Agbigboniwonran brought the coffin to Orunmila's house, he had brought the same coffin to Alara, Ajero, Owarangun and Oloyoo, and had destroyed their houses. He had carried the coffin to the house of several prominent persons and had destroyed and dispersed their houses. Anyone who carried the coffin to his house would die and the whole family was totally destroyed. Those who did not die abandoned the house altogether. This made Agbigboniwonran's name terrifying, when people heard of his name; They were starting to panic and running off. One day, Agbigboniwonran planned how to bring the same coffin to Orunmila. He was aware that Orunmila was a powerful person. He therefore went to Babalawo previously mentioned for ifa consultation . The Babalawo warned him not to seriously attempt what he intended to do, unless he wished his evil design would leap towards him. He was advised to offer ebo with a goat and money. He simply ignored the Awo's taunt, thinking that damaging Orunmila should not involve such elaborate precautions. He intensified his preparations.

Meanwhile Orunmila had a dream. In the dream, he could sense that the danger was hiding somewhere. Consequently he went to the same awo by consultation of Ifa. The Awo informed him that even when a person claimed to be his friend was bringing misfortune to the door of his house he could nevertheless overcome the evil designs. Orunmila was assured that the evil plans of this person would jump back to that party. This person was described as having a large head, a large mouth and thick lips. The Awo advised Orunmila to offer ebo with a mature goat and feed Ifa with a goat. Orunmila obeyed instantly.

A few days later Orunmila offered the ebb, he saw Agbigboniwonran coming alone on the road with a coffin in his head; Orunmila was well prepared for him. When he reaches the rim of the house of Orunmila, he tries to accommodate the coffin by lowering it on the ground. Orunmila immediately let him carry his coffin out since he was not interested in his or her luggage. Agbigboniwonran didn't put the coffin down for his humiliation, the coffin was on his head. This is how he has been carrying his coffin to this day. Thus Agbigboniwonran remembered the warning of Babalawo, he was full of remorse for not having heard the advice. But unfortunately, it was too late to make amendment. On the other hand, when Orunmila remembered the advice of the Awo, he was full of gratitude for having listened to his advice. He was singing and dancing and praising Olodumare.he said that is exactly what his babalawo had predicted

They used their skins to decorate their houses, to make bags and shoes and even to make straps. They ate their meats. Each time the hunter's wife gave birth to a new baby, one or more animals were sentenced to death. Sometimes it was the celebration of a title of leadership, bestowal, could be an ordinary birthday or thanksgiving, the hunter made sure that at least one animal would be killed for each celebration. To make it short, every time a human wanted to express their joy or celebrate an event, they would do disastrous ravages and pains on animals. To find a solution to the hunter's threat, they chose 164 representatives from among them to ensure their well-being. The representatives deliberated, and starting from the result of their deliberations it was for them to move away from the vicinity of the hunters in their totality and it was for them to establish their own market. They suggested that it would be wise to be living near the market so that they could effectively cut off any relationship with hunters in general.

The complete animal kingdom took these suggestions. They moved away from cities and villages. They set up their own market. Before long, the market grew very large. One day, the animal representatives went to the Awo mentioned earlier by consulting with Ifa to determine what they were doing so that their market would expand and more business would flourish better for them in their future generations. The Awo told them that their business was going to flourish and that their market was going to expand. They were advised to offer ebo with three pigeons, a goat and money. They were also advised to feed Esu Odara with a rooster. After this they were advised to offer ebo against unforeseen disasters which could cost them their lives. They were advised to use a goat and money for the ebo and feed Esu Odara with a rooster.

The representatives felt that an unforeseen disaster could never fall to them since they had taken measures for such eventualities. They had moved well away from the human population and therefore no other harm could fall to them from another front. They offered the first ebo and ignored the second.

Let's get together in the middle of prosperity

Ifa says he will not allow the person for whom this Odu is revealed to suffer from an unforeseen calamity. Ifa also says that this person has been struggling, without success for a long time, should perform in his due course of time.

COMMENTARIES OR LESSON FROM THE ODU IFA OBARA MEJI ABOVE

It can be deduce that unnecessary overconfidence and disobedience of divine instruction is detrimental to human safety.

XV.

Ifa warns the person to whom this Odu has been revealed to give up being boastful unnecessarily. Ifa says that this person boasts in excess; He or she complains too much, he or she promises people, especially their opponents, fire and brimstone when he or she has no power to affect in any way those who threaten.

Ifa says that because of his boasting, those who would help him do not because of his or her boast of their self-sufficiency, able to feed themselves. As a result of his incessant complaints, those who might have taken a sympathetic view of his affairs consider him a plaintive complainer, and they do not want to have anything to do with him, for the fact that he or she boasts of his Ability to wreak havoc and disasters on their opponents. Those against him or her always overestimate their abilities and whatever they plot against him or her was always a prey to over auction.

Ifa says that the person for whom this Odu is revealed will get a great benefit if he or she could stop boasting or reduce their incessant complaints. Ifa also advises this person to offer ebo with three pigeons, three roosters, three guineas hens, three hens and money. After this, he or she needs to stop going for trouble. Of this, Ifa says:

Ojo pa abahun t’ewu t’aso

Dia fun Baba Aji-han-bi-agogo

Igba ti o nse oun gbogbo ti okan ko yo’ri

Ebo ni won ni ko se

Translation:

The rain soaks the Turtle with its carapace

This was the Ifa released for Baba Aji-han-bi-agogo, who formed the habit of shouting like a gong

When you do all sorts of things without success in any

He was advised to offer ebo.

Baba Aji-han-biagogo was in a serious dilemma. There was nothing he'd put his hands on that would turn out to be any good. He was hated by several people. He was also avoided by many people. He had no friends. He had no wife. In fact, no woman wanted to seen him by her side. Of course he had no children; Even the members of his family avoided him like a leech.

Everyone knew why he was hated by the others - exept Baba Aji-han-bi-agogo himself. If someone had done a little thing to him, without proper investigation he concluded that he had been deliberately done and start to shout insignificantly. He would shout at the person. He would begin to complain about the person. He would report the person to anyone who listened to him. He would take the person to the highest authority. He would do this until his complaints began to irritate the people around him. If these people did not blame or punish the person from whom he was complaining, he accused them of taking a position next to his opponent, he would accuse them of making fun of him. That's why people tried anything to avoid it.

Anyone who considered him his enemy was in trouble. He would molest the life of that person; He would tell anyone who cares to hear that he would attack his opponent. He would let them know that he had procured some mortal enchantments, knives, clubs and arrows with which to end his opponent. He boasts that he attacks his opponent at night. To be able to prevent attack from him, his enemy do stage attack against him that do hit him badly. He would then start a new round of complaints. Several times, he had used his mouth to get himself in trouble.

One day, he met a young woman and proposed marriage. The girl told him to go and meet his parents if he meant it. He flew into incredible anger. He accused the girl of being intimidated with her parents. He promised to teach her and her parents some lessons they would never forget in their lifetime . In the end, his case was brought before the Oba. He was fined and warned to have good behavior. While he was contemplating leaving his community and traveling anywhere or staying where he was, he decided to go to the Awo mentioned above by consulting Ifa about his situation.

The Awo told him that he came from heaven with success but that he had used his mouth to spoil his chances of success. He was informed that his refutation to behave decently had caused all his problems for him. He was advised to be tolerant, complacent, and less boastful, and to be more considerate all the time when he was asked to stop complaining about any little thing that happened to him and that he would always give others the benefit of the doubt. He was asked not to think that every step taken by others was designed to intimidate him. He was advised to always see the positive side of all things first and to de-emphasize the negative. He was also advised to offer ebo with 3 pigeons, 3 roosters, 3 hens, 3 guineas and money. After this, he was asked never to forget to take precaution of himself in his thoughts, speeches and actions all the time. He obeyed. He was also determined to flip the blade and make his life a success.

A few days after his encounter with this Babalawo, he listened to his neighbors talk about a cooperative work in which they were about to undertake. He approached them and begged them to let him participate. Knowing his antecedents they refused frankly. However, He beg them to allow him participation.

All the praises for Oju pa abahun t'ewu t'aso

Ifa says that with care, humility, cooperation, consideration for others, adactation and love, all good things in life will be for the person for whom this Odu is revealed just to be taken. Ifa assures him that he or she has brought the destiny of triumph right from the sky. That is why it is not in their best interest to allow trivial things which may prevent them from attending to their highest potentials.

COMMENTARIES OR LESSON FROM THE VERSE OF OBARA MEJI ABOVE

Ifa is telling us in this verse that virtue like humility, patience, calmness and tolerance are what is essential for success and peaceful in life. As you can see in the odu ifa above when Baba Aji-han-bi-agogo is still behaving badly, remain intolerance to other he was unable to get wife, children or other good things of life, but immediately he changed for good as instructed by ifa, his life receive a positive turn around. he begin to have success in any things he do.

XVI.

Ifa says that the person for whom this Odu is revealed should not have agriculture as a profession or occupation . Ifa says it's not good for this person. He or she may enter the dairy business or grocery store where he or she is selling milk, fruits, and other products but never be going to a farm to plant, prepare the soil, or grow it. Ifa says that this person should not be piling his body against the dew of the early morning. He or she is also Babalawos or Iyanifa, this would lead to success but never as a farmer.

Ifa says that for the person for whom this Odu is revealed needs to offer ebo with 2 hens and abundant palm oil. One of the hens will be poured by the breast, abundant palm oil will be poured in and will be placed on the altar of Esu. The second hen will be given to him to serve Ifa. If he or she does not have a personal Ifa, then Babalawo or Iyanifa will assist in serving Ifa at home. About this Ifa says:

Ogbo erinla kii soro

E wo eye jingbinni l’orun esin

Dia fun Ibilope

Tii s’omo bibi inu Agbonniregun

Igbati o ntt’orun bo wa’ye

Ebo ni won ni ko se

Translation:

A big bull makes no noise

See the splendid decoration around the horse's neck

These were the declarations of Ifa for Ibilope

The real son of Orunmila

When he was coming from heaven to earth

He was advised to offer ebo

When Ibilope was coming into the world he was told that he was a son of Orunmila. He was also informed that he was not expected to be a farmer since nothing good would come out of it. He was also warned not to leave his house very early in the morning as he was not expected of the one who was piling his feet with the dew of the early morning. The Awo told him that part of what he could be successful in life was to become Babalawo. The Awo offered the ebo as it was previously prescribed.

Meanwhile, on earth, Ibilope took the profesion of Ifa. He never left his house very early in the mornings . He obeyed all the advice of the Awo. He was so great that many people came to see him from near and far to consult Ifa with him. He also became very wealthy and influential in his society. He lived a full life and died as a happy and fulfilled man.

Ogbo erinla kii soro

E wo eye jingbinni l’orun esin

Dia fun Ibilope

Tii s’omo bibi inu Agbonniregun

Igbati o ntt’orun bo wa’ye

Ebo ni won ni ko se

These were the declarations of Ifa for Ibilope

The real son of Orunmila

When I was coming from heaven to earth

He was advised to offer ebo

After having offered the ebo

He was warned not to go to the farm

Or brush your legs against the early morning spray

He obeyed

And not too late, not too far away

Let's get together in the middle of everything

Ifa says that the person for whom this Odu is revealed will triumph in the career he or she has chosen. He or she will live a successful life. He or she will be very happy and satisfied.

XVII.

Ifa says this person will be able to unravel the witches behind his or her ordeals. He should show offer ebo with two big rat and beans cake and palm oil to the elder of the night. Ifa says obara meji is the beginning of the power of witches and development of the vibration of wizard and other contrary energies in the universe. Ifa speaks of the origin of man as the basis of Obara meji. Obara meji speaks of the beginning of light, goodness, smartness, intelligence, docile and inoffensive life. With the passing of the time, the evil intention of man become real and clear in the universe, hence man appears to always be in constant fear, anger, hatred, confusion, rejection, and darkness. It is when man is conscious of his divine state and his spiritual capacities that man would overcome all these ajoguns (hatred, confusions, loss, ill health and other negative vibration). Obara meji states that most men express good intention in the beginning of life, personal relationship with others and contact along their earthly journey. Later he changes to become the lion that roars, intend to devour the flesh of others, he is filled with evil thinking that his whole life becomes radiated with sorrow, rejection, sadness and failure.see what ifa says in this stanzer :

The graceful dance of the

[Kukunduku has anchored its roots firmly into the ground and so the wind does not bother it cast Ifa for Eji Ọbara the one who bought two very wonderful servants]

O n ṣe:

Eji Ọbara a fi gba wa rẹru meji to yan ketekete

I love you so much

O n ṣe ẹru ti mo, baba mo fi sin ooo

I love you so much

In the meantime, he moaned.

[Eji Ọbara who bought two very wonderful servants

The servant that I bought paved the way for my success

I praise you baba (ifa) for the servant I bought

He said, I praise you baba (Ifa) for the servant I bought

I praise you baba (ifa) for the servant I bought

The servant that I bought paved the way for my success

I praise you baba (ifa) for the servant I bought

You will see that I can not give enough thanks for the blessings I have received

I praise you baba (ifa) for the servant I bought

The servant that I bought paved the way for my success

I praise you baba (Ifa) for the servant I bought]

I danced and rejoiced! Ifa says that the blessing would not be complete when it arrived. The woman the man wants to marry, she is a good woman. She will bring blessings and favor with her. His child will become wealthy. They will have great peace of mind. Ifa says he should marry the woman and will receive a free, unexpected blessing in this case of Ọbara Meji. Ifa says there is a great blessing there for him, and if it is a woman, the man about whom she is consulting Ifa has blessings, if Ọbara Meji is cast for that person.

XX.

In Odu Ọbara Meji also, if this figure is cast for someone, Ifa says that person wants to start some kind of venture. Perhaps (s) he wants to go to the farm to work as a farmer. Perhaps (s) he wants to buy some land to set up a business or company. Ifa says (s) he should make an offer because of this desire. Ifa says that his / her venture will succeed in that place. Many people will benefit from serving him / her and (s) he will become like a king there. They will say, "This is our chief, leader, or king!" All of the people will eat, drink, and find success because of him / her. Ifa says (s) he should buy the land [or undertake the desired venture]. Yes, this is how Ifa said it:

O sẹ pẹlẹnjẹ ọwọ mi ọtun. Ọ rọ minijọ ọwọ mi osi. Abẹbẹ oje lo mu oju Ọlọja tutu ninini a difa fun Ọba Ado, Ejigbara ilẹkẹ nijọto rire ba wọn mulẹ ibudo. Ẹbọ nan ni o ṣe, or if gbẹbọ nbẹ or rubọ. Ẹru Ẹpo, ẹru Ọffa, ẹ wa ba ni ni jẹbutu ire. Jẹbutu vai la ba ni lẹsẹ ọbariṣa.

Or does not ki lo ṣọnibudo dọba?

Eji Ọbara, Ifa lo ṣonibudo dọba.

Eji Ọbara, ki lo ṣonidubo dọba?

Eji Ọbaraaa, ori ṣonibudo dọba.

[If it is flexible to my right, if it is stiff to my left, the lead fan causes the face Ọlọja to be very cool cast Ifa the king of Ados, man of many titles when he was going to acquire a new estate. I followed the babalawo's directions exactly. People from far and near, come meet me surrounded by blessings. An abundance of blessings is received at the feet of God.

What makes the owner of the estate become a king, Eji Obara?

Ifa / Eji Obara made him to be king

Eji Obara, what makes the owner of the estate become a king?

Eji Obara, his destiny (ori) is what makes the owner of the estate to become a king.]

Ifa says this person should worship his / her ori [destiny]. Ifa says the estate that this person wants to acẹuire will grow and (s) he will become like a king.
