Book Reviews of Ojise: Messenger of the Yoruba Tradition
Book Review: Baba Ifa Karade: Returning us to Tradition
Summary: 5 Stars
I always enjoy books by Baba Ifa Karade because they are honest, clear, & concise, yet thorough. In this book he manages to share his experiences of becoming initiated into the Obatala priesthood and attaining Babalawo status, provide verses from the odu, review the importance of naming, and call Africans in the Diaspora back to their heritage - all in less than 150 pages. For novices interested in the journey one must take to initiation, this work is excellent. Highly recommended!
