Though a monotheistic (belief in one God) religion, the Yoruba have a pantheon of deities called Orisa. Each deity has dominion of certain earth forces and emotions: i.e. Obatala is the deity of peace and leadership, Oshun is the deity of love and female sexuality, Ogun is the deity of war and work. In addition, the Yoruba also pay homage to their ancestors, Egun; believing that respect has to be paid not only to the living elders who are still with us here on earth, but those whose have already passed and have paved our way. This set of prayers is intended to become a standard for those wanting to communicate with Egun and Orisa.\u003cbr\u003eAyoka Wiles is African-American and was born and raised in Yoruba tradition, and is a priestess of Obatala. Known since childhood for her devotion to Orisa and Egun, she has written this set of prayers which is certain to become a standard for those wanting to communicate with Egun and Orisa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16411802\"\u003eAyoka Wiles\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.19d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798414684213\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8414684211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL052000\"\u003ePrayerbooks | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44707772465389,"sku":"9798414684213","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_3fc18eb3-6109-4530-b610-bc30fac74b34.jpg?v=1703976886","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/i-hear-olofis-song-a-collection-of-yoruba-spiritual-prayers-for-egun-and-orisa-9798414684213","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
