Ogbedi
Ogbedi He is Awo ni Orunmila and Omo Odu, with 20 years of consecration. He is part of the Oshaeifa editorial team and coordinates much of the work related to the research, writing, editing and updating of the project's content.
His work focuses especially on Ifá, the odù, the orishas, and historical research related to Yoruba and Afro-Cuban traditions.
I work in Oshaeifa
Within Oshaeifa, he participates in different stages of the editorial process, including:
- research and comparison of sources;
- writing and editing articles;
- review of religious content;
- updating old articles;
- organization of new sections;
- historical research;
- Editing and production of content for Oshaeifa's YouTube channel.
Although a significant part of the site's content is developed collectively, the articles dedicated to the odu of Ifá constitute one of the areas that Ogbedi works on most directly.
Ifá and the odù
The contents of Oshaeifa related to the signs of Ifá bring together explanations about the odù, their teachings, proverbs, patakís, recommendations, prohibitions and other elements preserved within the religious corpus.
Ogbedi is primarily involved in the research, organization, and development of this section, as well as in the review and progressive updating of published treaties.
The work seeks to preserve the structure and religious meaning of the teachings, while organizing the information in a way that is understandable for those who consult the site as a source of study and reference.
Research and tradition
His work combines the experience gained within religious practice with the consultation of treatises, specialized bibliography, historical sources and other materials used to contextualize the published topics.
Within Ifá and the Rule of Osha, there may be differences between houses, branches, regions, and methods of transmission. When these differences are relevant to understanding a topic, they are pointed out and the corresponding context is presented.
Editorial and audiovisual work
In addition to his participation in the research and writing of Oshaeifa, Ogbedi is involved in the editorial planning of the project and in the editing and production of audiovisual content.
Part of this work is also developed through Oshaeifa's YouTube channel, where the project expands on some of the topics covered on the website through audiovisual formats.
