In the ODU-GUNDA, ORUNMILA once sought the means of success in life and was told that the only way for him to marry IWA.
He married IWA and became very successful.
Since everyone has been seeking after IWA for success,with the result that IWA has become the MOTHER of many Children:
Come and behold the countless children of IWA,
Come and behold the countless children of IWA
IWA carries (Children) in (Her) arms,
IWA carries (Children) on (Her) back,
Come and behold the countless Children of IWA
Character is all that is requisite
Character is all that is requisite
There is no destiny to be called unhappy in Life’s city.
Character is all that is requisite.
Character is all that is requisite;
There is no destiny to be called unhappy in IFE’s city.
Character is all that is requisite.
IRETE-DI
Gentle character is it which enables the rope of life
To stay unbroken in one’s hand
So declared the oracle to Orunmila
Who by means of gentle character
Was going to win the rope of life from the 401 divinities.
OWONRIN-EDIN
Leave them alone, let them run;
It is their character that chases them about.
So declares the oracle about Anfwonikun
Who fears incessantly day and night;
Will you but practice good character,
Will you but practice sound character.
Anfwonikun, and stop running about like a coward.
The outcome of GOOD CHARACTER is a GOOD REPUTATION. It is a thing of worth PRIDE and GLORY within the SANCTIONS of OLODUMARE.
As CHARACTER makes for GOOD Social Relations, it is laid upon every member of the community to act in such a way as to promote always the GOOD of the WHOLE BODY.
In the old days wicked people were exiled from the community or ostracized from the family; one who had seduced the wife of another’s must turn and go another way if the offended person walked along the road towards them.
The tenants of OLODUMARE are to leave the GOODNESS in this world and to right the wrongs that exist here.
Many attempt to guise their efforts by saying they are for righteousness, but in deed, which is an indicator of CHARACTER, they behave totally different.
They have hidden agendas and do not understand that nothing is hidden from ESU, that he has the ability to see deeply into the DARKEST HEART, the ONIA-JO-GUN, the ears and eyes of ORUNMILA.
OGBE-WORI
Orobanta-awuwobi-owu divined for the World when its inhabitants declared that nothing is more important in the World than money and they would forsake any other thing and to run after money. ORUNMILA told them that they ought to think less of money and more about IFA.
He said, they ought not to honor money but IFA and Knowledge, for these two are equal in status. Good manners should be adored.
Money exalts a man and at the same time spoils his CHARACTER. Anyone who has too much love for money is apt to lose his GOOD CHARACTER.
