The different greetings in Ifá

Meet our two guests for this week on www.patreon.com/DanaMamanMV- Iya Fayomi and Baba Fasegun. They are both Initiated priests of Ifa which is one of the oldest religions in the Orixa traditions. Ifa is from Nigeria West Africa. Through migration of slaves from the region, Orixa worshiping has taken many different forms in the Americas, such as Santeria in Cuba, Vodun in Haiti. One of the forms this tradition took in Brazil is Candomble and Ombanda. The rituals, customs, and songs of these religions have gotten incorporated in Capoeira as the two communities lived and grew side by side. So many of the things we do in capoeira have their origin in these tradition, in its DNA, yet manytimes we are not aware why does one even do them or the original reason things were done for. This month we will be exploring these very meanings in a series of interviews with Iya Fayomi and Baba Fasegun.
