Diseases of the ODU.

SCHIZOPHRENIA.

Group of psychotic disorders that commonly occur in adolescents.

or in young adults, and in those whose relationships with reality are altered and the
capacity for conceptual thinking, not concrete, and are accompanied by various
affective, intellectual, and behavioral disorders. These patients show a
marked tendency to withdraw from reality, to present mood states
inappropriate to the circumstances, with an unpredictable course of thought and
tendency to exhibit absurd behavior, which often leads to a deterioration of the
personal habits, exhibit hallucinations and delusions. They are psychotic disorders, as
The sick seriously distort reality and suffer from internal disorganization.
of his/her personality.

Some psychiatrists point out the resemblance between the activity of sleep and what happens
in the schizophrenic, although it is a pale reflection of the schizophrenic man. In the
dreams (nightmares) we experience absurd things; the strange characters, with
characteristics of several people at once; the most contradictory things coexist,
without their lack of logic affecting the development of the dream. We ourselves appear
in the dream well-defined and others blurred. Everything seems strange to us, we hear
voices without seeing anyone, without this catching our attention. The feelings belong to the
more varied and range from the most pleasurable sexual sensations to the most
intense sensations of distress. The dream lacks conceptual content, everything is
express in the concrete form of visual and auditory images.

Often, one or several people chase us, which would seem illogical, ridiculous.
it would be unjustified if we were awake. In the chase, we find people
friends who protect us and who sometimes abruptly transform into our
enemies. Sometimes we run or we are overcome by a distressing sense of immobility.
All these things about dreams can help us understand what is happening in a
schizophrenic, but not as a momentary dream, rather as a permanent reality.

When local anesthesia is received, we feel that part of the body in a way
different, as if it weren't ours, as if we missed it. Imagine that all of that
it is felt throughout the body, so with that 'estrangement' the schizophrenic feels.

With these examples, which should not be taken as an equality with the
schizophrenics, but as an attempt to place ourselves a bit more familiarly in this
peculiar psychiatric disorder.

Each year, 0.15% of the population becomes ill. One in every 100 people born.
they will suffer from the disease at some point in their lives.

They take the sick person to the doctor's office because they notice he is withdrawn, not going to work, not
leaves the house, does not take care of their personal appearance, and does not want to bathe or eat, in
sometimes he is very restless, spends the day smoking, doesn't sleep, and shows attitude of
fear and distrust, talks nonsense, says that he is being chased or that someone wants to harm him or
that they poison their food, they laugh alone, make grimaces or unusual gestures
or they show a sudden agitation with aggressive and violent manifestations.
Also a surprising suicide attempt.

They present hypochondria (they have nothing and say they have everything), little drills,
depersonalization, derealization. The illness, in two thirds of the
cases, they are young people between 15 and 35 years old; less often over 40
years and less than 15; between them there is a discrepancy between the affectionate tone that
show the patient and the situations they are in and the content of their ideas.

They talk to themselves and with unjustified smiles. They hear voices and argue with them; voices that
they accuse and insult him: they call him 'homosexual', 'shameless', 'kill yourself', 'hang yourself'
etc. They experience auditory hallucinations, verbal, they smell bad odor in their
body or outside, bad taste in food; they may feel that they are being touched, perhaps
in their genitals. In certain cases, the patient gives an impression of normality; when
we talk to them in detail, we realize their delusional ideas, of the
thought disorders.

The lack of interest and initiative may have followed the loss of the grace of the
movements, the maintenance, for days, of the same position, without speaking
(mutism), the refusal of any suggestion and even doing the opposite of what
they are indicated (negativism) or automatic obedience. They appear in clothing
improper, disorganized behavior, make rude and not very funny jokes, and grimaces
and ridiculous gestures. They appear anxious to the point of panic; other times irritable and
even aggressive.

Varieties of schizophrenic patients.

Paranoid Schizophrenia. Delusional beliefs predominate and the

hallucinatory manifestations, in addition to the characteristic disorders, ideas
delirious and generally varied, the ideas of damages and losses prevail.

less deterioration of their habits and less disorganization of their personality than
other varieties of these sick people maintain an antagonism with those who intend
to help them, sometimes violently. They try to escape from the hospital or the house and commit acts
homicides. In these cases, the illness is somewhat later than the rest of the
schizophrenics, when the personality is well established, after the age of 25
years and it is not uncommon after the age of 35.

Hebefrenic Schizophrenia. Its alterations begin at an earlier age,

adolescence or in the early years of adulthood, and what stands out more
attention to them are the disorders in conceptual or abstract thinking and the
affective capture. They have delusional ideas, but less organized and more
changing more than in the previous cases. They have ideas of grandeur, they arise
hypochondriacal concerns; they believe they have lost their intestines, that their heart is

People aged 40 or older are more likely to be affected.

Classification.

2- Angle-closure glaucoma or narrow-angle (acute).

3- Secondary glaucoma.

4- Primary glaucoma.

In simple chronic glaucoma, its deficiency lies in the drainage of the eye in people.

vision and very high ocular tension. States of excitement should be avoided.

Secondary glaucoma is caused by other diseases and is due to increased

intraocular pressure. It is associated with degenerative eye diseases,
eye surgeries, induced by the lens, traumas, tumors, etc.

In primary glaucoma, there are two variants, one that appears close to birth and the
which appears between 10 and 20 years of age. The eyeball can grow significantly and

ARTHRITIS.

Pyogenic Arthritis. It is an acute infection with suppuration and reaches the elbow through three routes:

a) By hematogenous route.

b) By penetrating wound.
 166

c) From a focus of osteomyelitis adjacent to the humerus, radius, or ulna (most common).

The elbow is swollen. There is a general examination and fever. The elbow inflames due to the
synovial effusion and thickening. The skin increases in local warmth, movements
limited.

Rheumatoid Arthritis. Chronic, non-bacterial, systemic inflammation, of the young and of the
middle-aged adult, characterized by proliferative and destructive changes of the
synovial membrane, the periarticular and muscular structures, and the peri-
neural. Frequently, the joints are destroyed, become ankylosed, and become deformed,
affects elbows and other joints. It evolves through painful outbreaks, which are observed
pulmonary, cardiovascular, hematological, and neurological abnormalities.

It mainly appears between the ages of 20 and 60. The disease is associated with infections.

Let’s go, let’s gather money.

HISTORY

ODE MASHEDE lived in this land without money and without anything to eat. He was known as
the name of Awó FALAKE and was omóOSHE PAURE. He, in addition to divination,
he dedicated himself to hunting and always went through hardships.

One day, being very desperate, he took the Euré he had left and his two only adié.
and gave them to his Ifá. And he became Orubo and went to bring the Orubo Lese Iroko and placed the EBO
up high. When he climbed the Iroko, he saw a herd of Agbáni that had their horns
very large, with many branches. They were at the bottom of a hole in the ground.
They looked at the Sun and prayed to it for their magic:

MAY GOD NOT MAKE YOU UNABLE TO SPEAK IN THE FIELD, O KING OF THE EARTH.
OLOYO EBINPAONA.

OLORUN then came out and showed them the way. Awó FALAKE, who was above the
tree, I was already going to shoot them with his akofá when Obá EGUN OLUYEKE, that it
He defended and advised him, approached him, whispered in his ear and said: You have noticed that
the Agbáni open the entrance to the earth through a prayer they make to the Sun.
Do the same and you will be rich.

Awó FALAKE descended from the Iroko tree and seeing that the Agbáni had left, prayed to
OLORUN too. And OLORUN obeyed him, opened the earth, entered and saw that there was
many fabrics, gold, and precious stones. He took everything, but Obá EGUN OLUYEKE gave him
he said that he couldn't tell anyone about that.

He gave a roll of fabric to his obiní. She asked him where he had gotten it, and he
he didn't respond. She insisted several times but he did not answer her. Meanwhile, the Agbáni already
they had realized that someone had been there and they said to themselves: What a man.
Bold, what power will he have to make OLORUN accompany him?
 170

One day, in the absence of Awó FALAKE, his obiní packed his travel bag and put ashes in it.
and made a small hole in the bottom. Awó FALAKE, ignoring this, grabbed the bag
And he set out as always to hunt. His obiní followed him into the mountains, thanks to the ash.

Awó FALAKE arrived at his Iroko and climbed. The woman hid at the foot, among the bushes.
A moment later, the Agbáni came out and Awó FALAKE prays to OLORUN, enters
through the hole, takes more fabrics, gold and diamonds and leaves.

The woman, seeing this, does the same and enters, but she got distracted looking at the treasures and in
so the Agbáni arrived, they took her prisoner and tied her with vines to a Jaguey
entrance of the hole. Awó FALAKE, upon seeing that his woman was not at home, waited for her.
But on the third day, seeing that she did not come, he went out to look for her. The Agbáni had agreed
to kill the obiní of Awó FALAKE and they came out with her among the jars.

Awó FALAKE, who saw him, pointed at the chief of the Agbáni and killed him, with everyone fleeing.
others. Then he rescued his obiní and returned her to the family, telling them: She is
greedy and indiscreet and wants to know what she shouldn't. Then Awó FALAKE child
OSHE PAURE became very rich because the Agbáni were the children of ERUWA and they, where
they were terrified, they didn't come back. He was left with the treasure and the power of OLORUN, which
ORUNMILA and King EGUN OLUYEKE were granted.

NOTE: Stop living with a know-it-all and greedy woman as it slows you down.

2-OSHE PAURE favored by beings from the other world.

HISTORY

OSHE PAUREera is a very envied Awó, because everyone did not believe in his
knowledge and they were always provoking him. He was very lucky, that much is true, because
he was favored by people from the other world.

In one of those wars, OSHE PAUREse found himself almost lost and, not knowing what to do, he made
an invocation to Ifá, surrendering to ORULA, given that only he could
save by carrying out a small work, not knowing whether I could be favored or not

On this path, in the land of BORI BOSHE, there lived an Awó of great knowledge who
OLOFIN had given it. Awó ORUN, which is how it was called in this path OSHE.
PAURE lived ruling his people with the blessing of OLOFIN. Everything he did
it was going very well for him, as he had the backing of OLOFIN.

One day a woman of infinite beauty arrived in the land of BORI BOSHE, who dazzled
that village. That woman was nothing more than the transformation of OSHUNMORI.
YEYEO.OSHUN was sent to the land BORI BOSHE Omó SARAON, which was
Omó LOGU, with the order to destroy the land of BORI BOSHE and with it Awó ORUN.

When OSHUN entered the land of BORI BOSHE, she came singing:

YOUR CATTLE WILL GO YOUR PROTECTION OF OURS

Your work is to protect the child from the evil child who causes trouble.
Protect the house

Suddenly, there was a great commotion in the town and people started to fall and began to
to give as attacks. At that time it was around 12 in the day and Awó ORUN
he was performing his ceremony to OLOFINyORUNLA, placing it on his head
and prayed:

BABA OLOFIN, CHILD OF THE FATHER OF THE SKY

The child of Orunla is on the face of the sun, overcoming challenges.
The healing power of the gods is abundant.
THE HEAD OF THE DESTINED ONE IS IN THE HAND OF GOD.

He placed aOLOFIN and aORUNLA on the ground, and kissed the ground 3 times. Awó ORUN came out.

And she threw herself at the feet of Awó ORUN, where she kissed the ground three times before him. Awó
ORUN was so impressed by that woman that he didn't notice when she, at

there was a small jar of eye, filled with Omó SARAON, for her to see through

HISTORY

In the land ALAKUANDEDE, which is the land of the swallows, lived a man who

swallows, it had an imperative nest. OYEKUELU was a descendant of the Babalawos.

This man had been born an orphan since childhood, as his mother died at childbirth.
OYEKUELU was growing up and did not know the eboses and ewes of his father's house, which
It was Awó. His life began to be confusing and wild, he had moments of emigrating from a
land to another, without having a fixed purpose of staying.

There came a moment when, not feeling satisfied and comforted in his home, he
decided to look at a woman fixed to marry but did not achieve that, given that she
woman did not understand his character and way of thinking, a product of his love travels and
his contacts with different people from various towns.
 175

OYEKUELU, due to his clear intelligence, acquired great knowledge of

all the towns that surrounded him but he never fully attained happiness. So then
meeting $3.00 and went to see ORUNMILA, who saw this Ifá and said: You have forgotten
the EBOSES and sacrifices that are made in your father's house. And that is the reason
to your problem. You must go to your parents' land, so that there you can obtain the
power and the authority you need to overcome. After that, you will have
happiness, money, women, and children.

This is exactly what I need,

ORUNMILA said: For you to be great, we have to take you to IFE, so that there
they do Ifá for you. But first, we have to do EBO for you and feed the spirit of
your father.

After completing the works, OSHE PAURE set out for IFE, along with
ORUNMILA. And when they arrived at the gates, OYEKUELU knelt before
SHILEKOFEDUN from Ilé IFE said to him: OYEKUELU ONE CHILD
ISHERO OÑI IFE ORUBO. And then they asked him what he was bringing. He told them that
he only brought resin and kneeling before OLOFIN and ORUNMILA he placed resin on the
floor. And that voice said to him: Do you have nothing else?

Otí - OYEKUELU answered. And then he threw the otí on the ground. The voice said to him: With that
that's enough, to what OYEKUELU replied:

OLOFIN said to him: Enter, so that you can know everything you desire, since your
name means the one who was born crowned. OYEKUELU gathered from those lands with

that migratory life she had had but compared to her Ifá OSHE PAURE with the
name of OSHE ALAKUANDEDE, which is the Ifá of one who makes his house in
anywhere, both in the water and on solid ground. This is the Ifá of the

HISTORY

In the land of MOGUN YOWE INLE lived an Awó, named AYAMADE AWO, who
distinguished for his great eloquence. He was a great speaker of Ifá, where he, thanks to the great
power of the EGUN OBALUN that assisted him, succeeded in all the Osode he performed and,
in addition, he/she captivated everyone present.

By virtue of this, he increased his fame as Awó and his wealth, where everyone said that
he knew more than anyone on the land of Ifá. But he knew just like the other Awoses,
only that he was assisted by EGUN OBALUN, who was the chief of the Ogbóni of ARA ONU and
this allowed his words to always be heard by OLOFIN and to be done
firm on the ground.

Then the great wars began with the other Awoses, still their own
Godfather, who, upon seeing his son's prosperity, wished to isolate him with a view to
enslave him to his designs. AYAMAFE AWO OSHELO PAURE when facing being cornered by
everyone, even by his own Godfather, decided, fed up with all his peers and
driven by EGUN OBALUN, to go live in a distant cave that was in that land.

There he continued his meditations and his mental communications with the powerful.
EGUN OGBONI, who together with OBALUN influenced his mind. That solitude and the
constant contact with the EGUN OGBONI was transforming the character of OSHE
PAURE, who had been entrusted to EGUN, BOGBO ORISHA and Ifá, detesting
all his peers and not believing in any.

Meanwhile, in the land of MOGUN YOWE INLE, the lack had begun to be felt.
DEOSHE PAUREy everyone was calling for his presence, but no one knew where
to find him, since it was not known where the cave was where he had gone to live. In
In those days, AYAMAFE AWO had become Osode and saw his Ifá, begging the lerí with
Eja Tuto. And seeing this, he lay down to Bubule and in the dream EGUN appeared to him.

he will look for difficulties in the cave where he lived, that there was a tomb that belonged to the
previous owner of that land, who would take out their GUNGUN ELESE OTUN and with that
prepare your great secret with Okoto and have him eat with your Ifá to obtain the
expiration of your wars.

When he woke up, OSHE PAURE walked through the cave and found at the back a
grave and from it a voice came that said: ORISHAOKO POOLO and I will help you,
where GUNGUN ELESE OTUN DE EGUN dug and found, collected the OKOTO of
colorful and with that he made his KOBELOFO of ORISHAOKO, covering it with IGBELE

They asked him for forgiveness and to return to be the Awó of his land.

He accepted but always maintained a principle of distrust towards his peers.

He became AYAMAFE AWO OSHELO PAURE even more famous than before, which
caused the death of his own Godfather and his enemies, who did not withstand that
emergence of the power of OSHE PAURE and its fame, with which OSHE PAURE replaced

So, seeing that even his own godfather despised him, he felt bitter and a
he took his Ifá in the bags, took the staff that he always had at home, tied in
high up in Ifá and came out with his rosary Okpele and his Atefón to travel the world,
becoming a pilgrim, because he saw that in his homeland they did not want him.

ERIMI AWO, which was OSHE PAURE, was traveling through all the regions that surrounded

He was always sad. One day, he arrived at a house that was located at the
entry of a land where all who lived in it were blind, but

ERIMI AWOOSHE PAURE had that virtue of OLOFIN and, moreover, having suffered
so many sorrows in life during his pilgrimage made him see those beings of
that land, which was called AJANA IFA IFE INLE. But when he arrived at that
house, he met a man who told him that in order to live on that land,
it was necessary to give it a power that was of nature, because that land was where
the higher saints sent, and all the power of those beings was based on it.

HISTORY

There was a King in a very poor land because it was not well cultivated. This

his sign was OSHE PAURE.

He had a son who was just like him and the subjects of that land did not.
they had what it took to pay the tributes to the King. Since those lands were abundant in palms,
the subjects devised to extract the juice from them, depositing it into large jars that
they processed it, creating palm spirits. And this was presented to the King in his
birthday, as the only tribute they could give.

The King had no entertainment and his subjects were very poor. He did the only thing
what he could do, dedicate himself to OFIKALE TRUPON with the maidens and surrender to the
drink, in such a way that he became addicted to the point that, when the drink was scarce, he demanded
that they obtained it under the penalty of death, being then the tribute that he demanded from his
subjects.

This greatly displeased OSHUN and OGUN, who were the ones OLOFIN had.

there was on the earth.

In this land, whose Awó was OSHE PAURE, he often visited OBATALA
to acquire knowledge of the religious. He observed the chest, which caught his attention.
He powerfully caught his attention and motivated him to ask OBATALA about it and tell him:
BABA, I am going to take it to my Ilé.

OBATALA opposed him, saying: My son, you cannot take it. In that chest there is
a very ancient secret has been kept and no one knows what it is and what the chest holds.

OSHE PAURE, not satisfied with OBATALA's response, insisted so much that he
He said: Ask your Ifá if this is good for you. But OSHE PAURE did not consult with Ifá and,
grabbing the chest, he took it to his Ilé. There he adored it and looked at it with temptation
to see what it was that he/she was hiding inside.

Unable to bear it any longer, one day he opened the chest of the secret of IKU and what he saw inside

lands, around the lagoon, there was a lot of hunger.

ILOGUN noticed that the animal was starting to decrease or shrink. He was astonished and
he was very worried because it was very difficult to replace, as he would have to return to the

the uncertainty of being able to catch it, because it was truly difficult to grab.

At that moment, the Okpele fell from his pocket, because he was the Awó of ORUNMILA, and he saw his

The new being began to grow rapidly before his eyes and he thought that this would be the
solution to your problem, as you could continue with your treatments without delay or
difficulties. But, when trying to catch the fish, it slipped away. He tried again and
he fought with it, but the fish always slipped away from him or hid.

Tired already, ILOGUN raised his thought and communicated with OLORUN, with whom
he had direct communication. OLORUN came at the moment and ILOGUN said to him: Call me

gave birth, leaving him alone in a cave. And she went out to sacrifice herself so that her enemies
they will not get rid of your son.

OmóOSHE PAURE found a turtle shell of AYAKUA and put it on his head as a hat.
It turned out to be a very strange thing in the depths of the sea. Thus time went by.

The managers of OLOKUN, AGANA ERI, were looking for rare things in the
ocean depths, they saw it and immediately grabbed it upon seeing it so strange and
shining, and they swiftly brought it before OLOKUN, who was amazed to see
that strange thing, for the shine it had and for the ability it possessed to read in it
thought of OLOKUN. Moreover, he showed such intelligence that OLOKUN took him
great esteem, becoming the diviner who knew all the secrets of OLOKUN,
guiding him on what to do when visiting the land, which he did by the river and
the well.
 196

And his enemies never knew where OLOKUN was going to arrive on land, so
These enemies of OLOKUN also became enemies of OSHE PAURE.
they started to spread bad propaganda about him, beginning to have problems with the
other children of OLOKUN.

One day, already bored with that, he decided to leave OLOKUN's house and then everyone
they wanted to get rid of him. He had the ability that ABITA had given him in the belly of his
mother, turning into a fish and a snake, which represented a symbol of
wisdom of the Devil. And when he turned into a serpent, he possessed two jars, which was
where it accumulated and stored knowledge. As a result, it finished becoming
in sea snake and came ashore.

The color of good fortune, the color of good luck, Ori, Olofin, and Shango had announced that the
son of OLOFIN, ABITA, who lived at the bottom of the sea, would come to the land so that
could complete the teaching that was needed in the world. Awó ODI KA and IKA DI

When SHE PAU arrived at the shore of the sea, she came in the form of a fish that had
a cross on the head. And suddenly it transformed into the snake with two jars on the
head. Then Awó ODI KA and IKA DI each held onto a jar and continued the
the same course that that snake was taking, which ended in the ground
OBONIFALAYEO, where OSHUN had the secret of the owó to give it to the son of
OLOFIN to the son of ABITA. And when the three arrived in front of the house of OSHUN,
they are singing

Hail to the great deity, father of the divine, guardian of the land.

Then the serpent gave the task to OSHUN to deliver it to the

children of ORUNMILA and OSAIN, so that the owó would flow on Earth.

Then the sea serpent split in two, taking one part the form of the Eyá.

HISTORY

There was a fisherman who lived with a very greedy woman and everything he had was hers.
It seemed little and he was always asking the fisherman for more food.

One day, he went to the house of ORUNMILA, who saw this Ifá and marked EBO with: chicken.
oyster shell, seaweed, and the other ingredients, that would all take it to the sea and give it
the complaints to OLOKUN.

The fisherman did so and after casting the EBO into the sea and speaking with OLOKUN, he cast

HISTORY

When the world was created, OLOFIN designated a celestial Prince on Earth who was
very beautiful and was called IBU ABAMA, so that
 203

he will represent it on Earth and complete his work of salvation for the human race. The
The wood that accompanied him was OSHE PAURE and he always walked with ALA IGUI ODEDE.

he found in the river a beautiful woman, who was OSHUN, and she enchanted him, where he,
for its great power, after it completed its mission on Earth, it transformed into a
Barbo 'Ejá Bori', which is the global representation of OLOFIN on Earth, and
he ended up living with that beautiful woman.

Many years passed and a fisherman named EINLE arrived in that land, who had
a woman named ABATA. This fisherman was very poor and what he caught
he could barely afford to eat. His wife was always insulting him, saying that he didn't have
this, nor the other. One day, the fisherman went to ORUNMILA's house and this Ifá came out for him,
sending him to do EBO with fish.

EINLE did so and returned to his usual work as a fisherman and with such a good
luck this time as he catches a huge fish. When he goes to butcher it to sell his
meat, hey, the fish talks to him, telling him not to kill him, that he was IBU ABAMA, a
Heavenly prince enchanted by the art of love, that he was the global representation
of God, it was his ORI, the part of OLORUN that never dies and that everyone has
men.

-If you save me, I will give you with my power everything you need to live -he said.
he asked how he would summon him when he needed him. The fish, which was
a beautiful Barbo, he replied: IBU ABAMA EJA BORI ODADARA EMI EMOBOWA,
AWHE MILE ODARA - Beautiful barbo that I have carved, I want you to come to my side -.
So you can see that I'm telling you the truth, when you get home you will find it very
improved and nothing will be missing from it.

Believing in the honesty of the fish that was speaking to him, the fisherman released it and when he arrived at
his house found that it was actually much improved and told his wife
ABATA what had happened to him. She became filled with greed and asked EINLE IBU ABAMA.
that allows him to speak with ODUDUWA, where EINLE asks him: Do you have you
ease of words to talk to him?

It doesn't matter - ABATA replies - I want that and you have to please me.

EINLE goes to the shore of the sea and by saying the prayer, manages to make Barbo appear and asks him for his
desire. This one says: Return to your Ilé, for I will please you. When EINLE arrives at his
Ilé, find that ABATA had spoken with ODUDUWA, who was visiting
that place. ABATA tells EINLE that he wants to talk to OLOFIN and he sets off to see him.

VI- PATHS GROUP OF EGUN.

37- The EGUN takes away the ashé.

HISTORY

On one occasion, OLOFIN sent for a character who was unexpected, who was
introduced in this field by interests. OLOFIN goes to see ODUDUWA and asks him:
What has happened? Someone I didn't expect arrived. ODUDUWAle
He/She arrived here by mistake.

And he said, moreover: He has education and knowledge, and is prepared to

to impart them. OLOFIN said: I need someone to teach the other Awoses.
They go to see ORUNLA, tell him what happened, and then ORUNLA says: It has already happened!
Let's see how to fix it.

Raudo, ORUNLA is at the head. But it will have limited power. YORUNLA is silent and does not
speak. Of course, he knew he had betrayed his own EGUN, that's why he doesn't have
ashé, neither in the mouth nor in the hands, since the dead takes away what they have of Orisha.

38- Only OLOFIN and ORUNLA know about my achievements.

HISTORY

There was a man to whom the dead spoke in dreams and whenever he made the
things I dreamed of, saw them realized by the great faith I placed in making them
things.

One day he dreamed that his house and business were devoured by fire, but when he
he woke up did not do what the dead indicated to avoid it and a few days later thus
it happened. Dejected by what had occurred, he sat down to meditate and went to the house of ORUNLA,
telling him: His head saves him and his head loses him. Nothing, however insignificant

HISTORY

In the land of ADEDE NIBERE lived Awo BOLADE and it was OSHE PAURE, it was Awó ORUN and
he decided the fates of those lands, with the great power granted by OLOFIN.

It was a land of EGUNGUN and OSHA, and the inhabitants were ORUMALE and wanted
come to the land ARAYE INLE, which is this world where we live.

OSHE PAURE asked which of the Orishas would be able to accompany her children to the
Land to settle down and live with him on it and then accompany him in death.

I will accompany my children wherever they go. But, when

He arrived in the land of KOSO, they asked him his favorite UNYEN, they gave it to him and SHANGO.
he/she stayed there.

Later OYA was offered, but when it was time to arrive on Earth, the same thing happened.
And the same happened to each of the others. Then OSHE PAURE said to
I myself will have to fulfill that commission.

OLOFIN said to him: And who will be able to do it? YOSHE PAU replied to him:
Only ORI, who is my messenger in the personal spirit and is the owner of fate.
of man, and he is capable, despite everything and all the calamities and miseries,
of traveling with her son even after he was dead.

ORI has the particularity that each of the Orishas descends into the mind of
man and they do it like the same Orisha.

OSHE PAURE stood in front of OLOFIN and he gave him the ashé, putting it on him in the
hands, and said:

THIS IS THE FORM OF THE WHOLE DIVINE CREATION

MY HEAD MY COLOUR IS THE BEST THIS YEAR

Then OSHE PAURE received ORI from the hands of OLOFIN, he rendered MOFORIBALE.
and he put it in his Ifá, singing to it:

The good day has come, my spirit is joyful.

IFA GOOD IFA LIVES THERE ALAGBORA YEAR

Then OLOFIN illuminated his mind and gave him Eyé of Eyá Oro in his lerí about ORI.
Then it was Awoses' concert from that land and he opened everyone's eyes and said to them:
 221

When an Awó dies, their implements do not accompany them on their journey. Only the
Ikines, when ORUNMILA has the will to accompany you.

When an Omó Orisha dies, their Adé Otán do not accompany them on their journey, only
the dilogún when Orisha has the will to accompany him. But the consecration
The Elerí is not erased, it is ORI. Not even with IKU and it always accompanies its Omó in its
trip, both going and returning, without having to ask him, for his
Will is that of OLOFIN. And ORI is OLOFIN in every human being.

Then it was when the man understood the meaning of life and they knew that they
they were made in the image and likeness of OLOFIN. That is why OLOFIN in his
secret carries the parts of the human body and is the secret of OSHE PAURE among the
Awoses from Heaven.

It points out that the AwóOSHE PAURE is weary of life and reaches a point where it
ask OLOFIN to remove it from there.

It is an Ifá of messengers for secrets and comes to know them all by virtue of
OLOFIN gave.

When a person is the child of a dangerous Orisha due to their ambivalent power, both
for good as for evil, such as SHAKUANA, and is possessed by
this, the person retains their ORI in order to maintain their intelligence and
intellectuality of personality.

HISTORY

In the land of YEREKUN INLE lived an Awó, named ONIYERE AWO, who was
known as a man of prodigious memory and knew deeply the
secrets of the Odun of Ifá. But as he usually taught his brothers of
Ifá from other lands, the secret they needed in their respective lands to be able to
to live, this brought him a lot of envy among them and he was always at war, because
that they were using witchcraft to eliminate him.

He was always calling on OLORUN, every day upon waking up, like this:

GOD OF THE HEAVENS, PUTTING LIGHT IN MY HEART

One day that he had a very big war with another Awó, he gave a Ejá Tuto to his lerí.

he buried his secret, where he began to call upon the spirit of OMO AWALODEO, giving him

AWO did not want them to share their wealth, for ORUNMILA said to OSHE

41- The Ear and the Mosquito.

HISTORY

It was the time when the ear was straight and pointed, just like that of animals. A
day, the Ear was demanded and had to leave the house. He went to look for a
cart driver and met the Mosquito and his cart.

The ear asks the cart driver how much he would charge to take a wardrobe that
He had for his cousin's house. The Mosquito told him that he was going to charge him a half.
Then the Ear told him it was fine, but the Mosquito corrected him, that it was half
liter of aguardiente, because he drank a lot.

The Mosquito, with a lot of effort, managed to raise the wardrobe that the Ear did not want.
to get rid of it, because it was a family inheritance. They went to the house of their cousin PURA,
but when the cousin arrived, she wasn't there and the Ear had no money and told the Mosquito that
he would return later because his cousin wasn't there.

The Mosquito is gone. When the Ear's cousin arrived, she asked her for money and she said
that I didn't have, that he had left and had not been able to resolve anything. The Mosquito came and the
Oreja told him that his cousin also didn't have any money.

The Mosquito, seeing that time was passing and the Ear was not paying him, started to sting her. And
the Ear, trying to kill the Mosquito, runs into the wall, moved out of place,
I deformed it and he could never pass his head again.
