While the institution of mentorship is respectable in and of itself, each individual mentor must also conduct his life in ways that are commensurate with the title, Olowo. Olowo literally means "Master of òwò." It refers to a "master craftsmen". By the sáme token, olowo means "respectable." Taken either way, the mentor is required to demonstrate personal integrity as well as mastery of the craft. In the most basic sense, integrity is based on the understanding that mentors provide for their apprentices. [Fundamentals of Orisa Lifestyle page 93-94]

Spiritual community begins in heaven and is intensified on earth. This is why they say, the blood of the covenant is stronger than the water of the womb. It emphasizes that chosen relationships formed through shared commitments and sacrifices are more significant than biological family ties. It is a reversal of the more common but shortened proverb, “blood is thicker than water,” which typically suggests that family bonds are the most important. The “blood of the covenant” refers to shared experiences and loyalties with friends or chosen companions, while the “water of the womb” refers to the inherited relationship of being born into a family.

Osatua is the priest of Mouth
On the day Mouth was in the midst of enemies and could not swallow
Mouth was asked to perform an offering
Mouth heard about it and offered 8,000 cowries
Mouth then became salivated
If something hot enters the mouth
The mouth will swish and swish with saliva
- Holy Odu OsaOtura

Today, let the mouth speak words of coolness and tranquility. Àse!

Yóó ṣẹ, kò ṣẹ, àdúrà yá ju èpè. Regardless of whether or not they will be answered, prayers are better than curses.

You become what you invoke.

Never allow your enemies to deceive you into hating them. Instead, intensify your faith in Olodumare and seek his support in all things.

Pray for your ascent to the throne of destiny. Àse.

Most African Americans mistake culture for identity. But they are not interchangeable. Part of my mission to help restore the African mind requires that I help my people make the distinction between our American culture and our African identity. As soon as you understand what this means, you will understand how Jamaicans speak patois, Haitians speak kreyol and African Americans speak Ebonics because we all share African identity!

No matter how long a log rests in the river, it will never become a crocodile! Be unapologetically African!

Do not call a blessing a curse. Do not call a curse a blessing. Do not speak in a wishy washy way. That is part of how the babalawo invokes Orunmila during Ifá consultation. It shows the value we place upon having conviction. Don’t overthink it; just find out what needs to be done and start doing it to the best of your ability, where you are, using everything you have at your disposal. Keep working until the job is done. Period!
