Sista,
Would you give us the ori prayer, the one that means, "it is ori alone that accompanies me on my journey....
"Give thanks!"
Our Ancestors were skilled in the art of iwure, meaning literally "to pull ire to you"...
Ire is the Yoruba word for blessings, good fortune, goodness
Iwure is sometimes translated as the English word 'prayer'...however, the concept of iwure involves not only an asking the Universe for what you need and want but also a rearranging of your life so that you are in the best position to receive your blessings and being open and willing to receive your blessings
An iwure that I was taught by the Medahochi Kofi Omowale Zannu, who passed away last year, (iba ara torun-we pay homage to the citizens of the spiritual realm) assists us in gaining a more productive and closer connection to our Highest Self , called in Yoruba the ori
Ori is the Yoruba word for head and according to our Ancestors the head is where the Highest Self dwells...our Ancestors said that it is our Ori that leads us onto the physical plane (by being the first part of our bodies to issue forth from our mothers' wombs) and that the Ori holds our destiny and assists us in fulfilling it
Ori nikan
Lo to alason
Barokun
Ori mi iwo ni
Bimo ba lowo lowo
Ori ni oro fun
Ori mi iwo ni
Bimo ba timo laiye
Ori ni oro fun
Ori mi iwo ni
Ire gbogbo timo laiye
Ori ni oro fun
Ori mi iwo ni
It is Ori alone who will accompany the devotee on a distant journey (the journey of life) without turning back
If I have money it is Ori I will praise
My Ori it is you
If I have children on earth, it is Ori to whom I will give the praise
My Ori it is you
All good things that I have on earth, it is Ori to whom I will give the praise
My Ori it is you
