What is Understanding Odù in Yoruba Religion about?
Odù is a complex concept in the Yoruba religion, distinct from Candomblé, representing a form of communication between Órunmilá and people through graphic marks and associated stories. There are 256 Odù, formed by combinations of 16 primary symbols, and each Odù carries messages conveyed through oral poetry that varies by Ifá schools. The understanding of Odù requires knowledge of its graphic formation, messages, and energy, with a hierarchy among them used for decision-making in Ifá practices.
