Description

The Handbook of Yoruba Religious Concepts by Baba Ifa Karade provides a comprehensive introduction to the spiritual source of African American religious traditions. The Yoruba nation of West Africa has had a profound impact on the beliefs and practices of African Americans, with its guiding concepts taking root in various diasporic communities. This accessible book offers an overview of the Yoruba tradition and its influence in the West, exploring the sixteen Orisha, divination, and the use of energy centers to internalize the teachings. The book includes prayers, dances, songs, offerings, and sacrifices to honor the Orisha, providing a rich and nuanced understanding of this spiritual tradition. By exploring the Yoruba tradition, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the cultural heritage of African Americans and develop a more profound connection to their spiritual roots. This revised edition of The Handbook of Yoruba Religious Concepts offers a valuable resource for those seeking to learn more about this important aspect of African American culture and spirituality.
