Ifa is an African spirituality deeply rooted in African tradition.  For most people who practice this spirituality, strict adherence to African social structure is absolutely necessary.  These people feel that you can’t be a true Ifa devotee if you are busy developing new understandings about spiritual concepts that the wider Ifa community takes for granted [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=brotherpeacemaker.wordpress.com&blog=904646&post=5021&subd=brotherpeacemaker&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
