Introduction to Ẹṣẹ Ifá & The 256 Odùs

A free introduction to Ifá’s living verses, the 256 Odù, and their relevance to everyday life.

What makes a person wise—and how can a story help us see our choices more clearly?

Welcome to Ẹṣẹ Ifá: Sacred Wisdom & The 256 Odùs. This free opening video introduces the verses, stories, and teachings of Ifá and the questions they raise about responsibility, relationships, character, and the direction of a life.

In this introduction, you will discover:

  • The relationship between an Odù sign and the Ẹṣẹ Ifá verses associated with it.

  • How sixteen Odù families provide a path through all 256 Odù.

  • The place of Orí, discernment, and personal responsibility.

  • A way to listen thoughtfully to traditional stories and explore their relevance to everyday life.

The complete series is planned around 256 teaching videos of approximately fifteen minutes each, organized into sixteen families. DAILY IFA ACADEMY will bring these lessons together as the series grows.

Whether you practice within an Ifá tradition or are encountering it for the first time, you are welcome to begin here. This introduction is free and open to everyone. The full teaching series is intended for paid subscribers.

Presented by Babá Tilo Plöger de Àjàgùnnà. Original writing and prayer recording, with AI narration and symbolic AI illustrations.
