IWA - PELE
Good Character



OLODUMARE is GOD.
ORUNMILA is HIS Prophet.
IFA is HIS Scripture.

IFA SAYS: Perform truthfulness, perform righteousness, Perform kindness, avoid wickedness, Perform the truth, perform righteousness; Is the one that IMALE supports. Who is IMALE except OLODUMARE (GOD). In Eji Ogbe

IFA says: I behave as my GOD creates me. I do good always, I am honest, too. I do no evil, Neither do I harbor evil thoughts; L'est I die wretched. This is because Whatever we initiate in our youth Will persist 'til old age. These are the declarations of the Oracle for ORUNMILA and the 401 IRUNMOLE, When coming from Heaven to the earth. OLODUMARE instructed them to do good always. Only ORUNMILA applied honesty of thought To overturn all evil machinations. Ase Ase Ase

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT... The Ancestors connect us to the spirit realm and interceed in our behalf. They guide us through our journey. Because of our Ancestors, many of us have been given a second and third chances to fulfill our destiny. Because of our Ancestors, many of us survive.

The development of IWA PELE (good character) will allow us to, one day, become Ancestors, who can interceed on behalf of those who come after us. Only elevated spirits carry the Ase needed to elevate a nation and enlighten the world. Having IWA PELE will elevate and enlighten our spirit.
