Additional information
by C. Osamaro Ibie (Author)
This work was embarked upon at the instance of orunmita, who expressed undisguised anxiety for his followers to know more about him. The works revealed in these books are not just fairy tales contrived to tell interesting stories. They reveal the true account of life both in heaven ami on earth. In the first instance, it will only have a meaning to initiates into lfism, followers of orunmila, as well as to students who are looking for materials to enrich knowledge of the unfettered ways of life.
The work is not designed to negate the relevance of the lfa priest. It is only meant to provide a clearer understanding of the significance of whatever the lfa priest reveals at divination or does, for suffering humanity. This set of books will neither produce an lfa priest, nor tell all there is to know about lfism. It will still be necessary to seek the assistance of the lfa priest.
My gratitude goes to the lfa priests who were nominated by orunmila himself to make their contributions to this work.
