"There is an ethical problem at the root of our philosophical difficulties: the men are very fond of seeking the truth but very reluctant to accept it"

Etienne Gilson

 Within the religious in our religion there are those with their inherent denial of the knowledge that leads them to an extreme pelagic when is the riddle of the search for truth, which in itself? Is always in we shall see {the truth}, many tend to refuse to see it when it arrives, without wondering if what it is conceived of is right. Ifá is unique and has existed for thousands of years, it arrived in our countries more than a century ago, and the rope that attached it to the root was broken, that is to say the branch was left without a trunk for different reasons, when our ancestors were disappearing physically along with the geography, the language, and the borders. However, the water always takes its course and has established itself as such again Thanks to all the technological advancement, the ease of sharing knowledge, transfer of information and direct contact with the real scholars. There are NOT two Ifá, why do they limit themselves and get lost in that Security that leads them to ignorance, lack of knowledge, development, to the constant search, to the right path, to find their answers and to a change that is positive and inevitable?

The growth is absolute in the fierce doubt, from these doubts arise the crisis of knowledge, the crises of self-criticism and these must emphasize the eagerness to learn, to get what's in the air and this is part of being wise, often by indoctrination of those who make to pass for scholars, who are lacking in objectivity, in logical reasoning, of untainted veracity, many of the neophytes distance themselves from the truth when they follow these people. Ask yourself the question, "Am I on the right track?"

"You have to think, if I think, I exist "said Descartes, I am a rationalist and rationalism in my opinion is the way to achieve knowledge, infer, deduce destiny by reason, analyze cautiously,

Our constant uncertainty, the skepticism in what we have conceived as a knowledge, leads us to the search and is to the experience, but there are experiences that can appear to be plausible, and because of such are misleading, due to the sources from which the same become a sophism, a fallacy. Which is why I suggest we always go to the starting point when they are in the middle of such a dilemma until That they are on the right track, the certainty.

"There is no possible knowledge prior to the experience proven through reason, not the senses, because the senses deceive."

Within any process, it is always necessary to look for the cause or origin of  what is done, we must break down everything that is relevant to the practice, such that rethinking how to understand what you do, where you come from, is a constant and infinite task, so his response always becomes subjective and brings him to an analytical judgment. When he has not seen in a evident shift in his response, then he finds himself in the presence of an irrefutable truth, corroborated by the proper method, after a deep analysis on his doubt, verified with the experience, arriving at a preaching with contributions to his experience, then he will be in the presence of knowledge.

"The truth of your truth"

In the attempt to enrich infinite learning, every day you have to try to unite the two human visions: that of medieval thought with that of modern thought, this puts a Copernican spin on the practice Yòrùbá, first always trying to corroborate everything you learn, like subject to scrap what comes in and this will advance and increase immeasurably the experience. God (Olodumare) is all of existence, all that exists comes from nature, therefore, Olodumare lives in each one of us, because from here we come, and it's good, it's perfect, it doesn't fool us! We are a play with the author's stamp. He gives us the way, the will, the intelligence to reach the truth, we just need to know how to move forward in this process.One piece of advice, these and many other questions can be asked so that we begin to find the truth: Where does Ifá come from, what is Ifá , Why the name of Ifá, What is the etymology of Ifá? How many years of existence does the Yoruba tradition have?

How did it come into our lives? Where does the advice that comes to us come from? Where is the epicenter of the Yòrùbá religion? Where did the first life existence arise and where? How it began and from where did the land come up? Who are the Òrìsà and how did they become Òrìsà? Cycle Cosmological of existence, forces that represent it...etc.
