On the Sacred Stone and Oriṣa worship.

They ask Bàbá Oduduwa:

On the Sacred Stone and Oriṣa worship.

Ẹgbẹ‌ Ódùn Olọ‌fin - The Spiritual Family of the Secret of Olofin.

Danny: The question is regarding the immortality of consciousnesses through the Ota (stones) and that leads me to think about magma and the formation of rocks, then in the case of other planets where there are also rocks, and relating it to the arrival of the sacred Ota, the sacred meteorite, (the stone of Olofin).

That meteorite has a condition of a consciousness of a different species?

Ifalenu: The others will not be related to this, but to explain what the brother says of the sacred stone or the sacred meteorite of Olofin, is that it reveals to us the father that the consciousness of Baba Odùdúwà traveled from the origin, when the Big Bang began, it came out in a piece of rock that was fragmenting through its journey through the universe and where these fragments were falling, there was manifested a part of the consciousness of Baba Odùdúwà we can call it so, you can already expand on the topic so that you know.

Bàbá Odùdúwà answers: The creation of the entire universe is based on that which is known as "Panspermia", your life did not originate on this planet, life has a much older origin. It would be something complicated to understand. Life arises since the creation of the universe. The problem is that you catalogued something as life similar to what you know. Life is nothing more than the manifestation of energy, movement.

You created an adjective for the organic aspect of that manifestation, but there are consciousnesses that lack the organic aspect, and they are created from things that you could not imagine. A few years ago, very few people found a potential life form composed not of organic things, and if I am not mistaken that species of life was found in arsenic, it was molecules that can potentially become more complex structures, that which could be determined as life. Regarding that and the reason why the stone is very present especially, or even more so, in what is known as the Afro-Cuban Lukumi tradition, it is in commemoration of what the consciousness or the conscience that emanates from the stones of the Otas. The Òrìşà manifest in any aspect that may exist, not necessarily in an Ota or a stone.

 The consciousness that brought that divine Ota was the product of the whole journey that it made, and it brought the emanation, if we could say so of energetic emanation, which took a reservoir, of a body, and there arises what this is, everything. Ìṣẹṣe

Ifalenu: Tradition?

Odùdúwà: Ìṣẹṣe is not tradition as such. Ìṣẹṣe is a human condition, everything is Ìṣẹṣṣe.
