Obatala Explains: The Origin of the Orishas | Yoruba Wisdom

Who are the Orishas? Where do they come from? And why do they walk so closely with us? In this second episode of Sacred Paths: Yoruba Wisdom, Obatala — the guardian of ancestral knowledge — reveals the sacred origins of the Orishas, the divine forces of the Yoruba spiritual tradition. With clarity, reverence, and poetic insight, we explore: ✨ What are the Orishas, and how do they differ from gods? ✨ How were they created by Olodumare and infused with Ashé ✨ The sacred roles they fulfill in the cosmos and in human life ✨ Their presence in nature, in ritual, and in the human spirit ✨ How they traveled across the Atlantic and survived in the Diaspora — in Candomblé, Santería, Vodun, and more. Grounded in the timeless works of Pierre Verger, Wande Abimbola, Reginaldo Prandi, and the oral traditions of Yoruba elders, this episode is a doorway into a deeper understanding of the divine order of the universe. The Orishas are not legends. They are living forces. And to remember them… is to remember yourself. 🕊️ Like, share, and subscribe if your spirit was stirred.
