About this audiobook
The Yoruba people of southwestern Nigeria and Benin also contributed significantly to the spiritual landscape of Haiti. Their complex Yoruba religion, known as Ifá or Orisha worship, featured a supreme creator, Olodumare, and a vast array of lesser deities called Orishas. Like the vodun and bakisi, the Orishas were divine beings who controlled various aspects of existence and interacted directly with humanity.
Prominent Orishas such as Shango (god of thunder and lightning), Yemoja (mother of rivers and the ocean), Ogun (god of iron and war), and Eshu (trickster deity and messenger of the gods) are recognizable in their Haitian Vodou counterparts, often retaining aspects of their original domains and personalities. The Yoruba system was characterized by a sophisticated system of divination (Ifá), elaborate rituals, and a strong emphasis on the relationship between humans and the divine. The concept of ashe – the divine life force or power that flows through all things – was central.
