[@lovlyprice9173]

I love all of your podcasts, but this was by far my favorite. I had 8 uncles and there was my father. I have one uncle left. My father has since passed away. Listen to this man speak, I can hear two of my uncle's voices - Gordon and Charles. Very protective and loving men. Hard working, providers. These men had hands - I always felt safe around them. I love Ogun. He is one of the first male Orishas I feel in love with. Thank you, Baba and Brother Rafiq, for this talk.

[@JosephBabaIfa]

Homage to all those male ancestors who left a positive impact, Thank you for watching!

[@jessicacordero9180]

I’ve been watching this channel more frequently and I have to state I appreciate all your work in educating the community. I really love the transparency that is expressed. The spiritual journey and Ifa are not easy paths. We need to take accountability, be humble and learn from the lessons given to us. It’s so rewarding to see how many beautiful souls put in the work to fulfill Iwa Pele. Blessings to you and your family. Ase

"Its a lot!" God I feel that in my soul. Restraining myself is a STRUGGLE!!

[@ogcubanyc]

You said the same things about Ogun that you said about Chango… it kind of bothered me to see you talk so highly of him in the Chango episode and in this one you used ogun to get at Chango. Idk what tension u got within you or within your ile but you said it yourself “people don’t want Chango to be king” TOO BAD 🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Man’s man, epitome of masculinity … I can feel some resentfulness towards Chango in this podcast which a lot of people seem to have. Chango is the King and for many reasons. It is what it is and the community can try all they want to shrink him and throw dirt in him but being the biggest, KABIOSILE will always win the war and clear his name and claim his place as the King of the religion. The original owner of Ifa. People can put fire emojis in front of Oya and say ogun is the man and say Obatala is the king all day long…the community loves taking changos attributes and distributing them amongst the rest of the Orishas…very common thing amongst modern practitioners. CHANGO IS KING. 🔥 ⚡️
