On this path, Orúnmila set out for Yere Oko. Along the way, he encountered
with a pregnant woman who had a stomach ache. She greeted him and said:

History.

On this journey, Olofin decided to distribute food and clothing among the
poorer and issued a decree for them to present themselves
before him, clean of guilt and sorrow.

Among the poor of that land, there was one who was the most needy of
everyone, because he was very hungry and naked, and when he arrived at the house of
Orúnmila in the Osode got this Odu. And Orúnmila said to him: -"You have to

The man presented himself before Olofin and received from the hands of the Eternal Power a

There was a blacksmith who was going through a bad situation, begging to
Olofin for his luck. Olofin sent Eshu to grant him three.
virtues to the blacksmith. Eshu arrived where the blacksmith was, saying to him: "I am
here by the mandate of Olofin. He commanded that I grant you three virtues, thus

The blacksmith stood still upon hearing what Eshu had told him, but he regained his composure.
from astonishment and said to Eshu: "That everyone who climbs in the bush of
cherry tree that he had in his yard without his consent, could not be brought down from

your permission I could not leave this." And the third was: "That everyone who

Eshu was amazed to hear the blacksmith's three requests because he did not

Time went by, without anything happening to the blacksmith. But it happened that one day
the son of the King passed by his house and, catching his attention, the bush of
cherry tree that was in the yard, entered and climbed on it, and they spent the
hours and the King's son could not get down from the bush.

The King, worried about the delay of his son, sent his guards to
search for it throughout the town. These, after going through the town, take it
they found on top of the blacksmith's cherry bush. Thus, the guards
they entered the blacksmith's house to see what was happening, but since they entered without
permission from the owner of the place, they were trapped with no way to get out of there.

The King, even more worried about the delay of his guards and his son,
he decided to go himself in search of her. After walking through the town, the King
he saw everyone at the blacksmith's house and decided to enter as well, calling the blacksmith
but seeing that he was taking a long time to come, he sat in his chair without permission
of the owner.

When the blacksmith appeared, the King asked him what was wrong with his son that
he could not get down from the tree, to which the blacksmith replied that every man
that if he climbed onto her tree without permission, he could not come down from it, and that he,

harvest them.

"So it will be," the King said, and then asked what was happening to his
guards, who could not leave their house. Respectfully, the blacksmith said to him
he answered that everyone who entered his house without permission could not leave
she, and that he, on the other hand, only wanted a small fortune to be able to live
of her the rest of her life. The King accepted again and, preparing to
to leave, he saw that he could not get up from the chair.

The King was very frightened and said to the blacksmith that he had already granted him everything.
what he had asked her, why she didn't let him get up from where he was
sitting. The blacksmith said to him: "You sat in my chair without my consent and
"to be able to rise from it I only want her crown and her reign." In that,

that he would demonstrate it so that people could see that he was right. Thus, the

7-How Oyeku-Batrupon managed to live in peace and tranquility.

He made a splendid banquet. After eating and drinking, the chief

the Awoses expressed that all of them should pray for him so that
survive the evil machinations of his enemies and finish so
this banquet will soon come to an end. His enemies had to pay the price of
his life. They warned him to stop his Ifá practices, for the sake of
of humanity. Its main act of benevolence was to help the children of
the other people and release them from The Witches of not eliminating them.

He kept doing good but continued to have problems. He decided

consult Ifá who warned him to give a goat to Eshu. After eating it
the goat, Eshu created confusion among his enemies causing them to start
to accuse each other in open confession. This is how it began
the open confessions of the witches. After this, he lived in peace and
tranquility.

2-How Oyeku-Batrupon solved the problem of witchcraft.

When this Odu appears in an Igbodun initiation, the person must be

it was announced that The Witches will be behind him throughout life. For him to be able to
to handle the storms, one must perform an Ono Ifá digging the ground of their
room and putting a goat inside and the appropriate leaves, actually
Inside the hole goes the head of the goat, an egg, two slugs, and the leaves.

This was the sacrifice that the priest called Ogbomu gbomuja ijaja and it was
advertised to Oyeku-Batrupon for when The Witches were behind him.

I had to then look for two birds or owls that cried on the roof of
at his house every night, one of the birds died and the other flew away and never
but it returned. This was the Odu that eliminated the cult of witchcraft and achieved the
salvation of the world when they connected to destroy the
deities. Here the person must wash their head with rain water and
appropriate sheets.

He divined for the birth of a son.

There lived an elderly single lady named Omojuola, who was
sterile, for a time she traveled to the land of Ilú Imolé. She went for her
I told a doctor upon arriving at the place that it had been
invited because as it was expressed in the divination she was the only one
qualified to help them restore the peace and prosperity of that
village, because it was revealed to her that it was the only place where she could live and
to have a child.

Being true what was predetermined, when she returned to the village, the
the market began to prosper. Later it lost its period and did not know that
She was pregnant until after three months when her breasts started
to bulge. She was shy with the visit of the priest named Oyeku-
Batrupon, she went to the priest to have him do divination. Oyeku-
Batrupon initially said the following incantation, which caused it to
they felt attracted to each other:

I admire your house.

I am happy
What is your name?

Meaning:
I came to your house to greet you and found you at home. I asked for the
your home address and I couldn't find it. It was Eshu who showed me the
place. Ifá became a well-being for the Awó.

She was warned to make a sacrifice with two rabbits and two 50k bags.
The priest told her that she would have a son who would be named Ifajiré.
he said to prepare a drum for the coming of his son. Later being born a
son who became a musician and she went to Ifá thankful with the
next song:

Ifa, may I receive blessings.

The cow is in the pen
You are a small person
The wound has healed
It's very hot today
 The toad is on the road
If I am to be blessed.

The son grew up to become a musician through whom the parents

4-How Oyeku-Batrupon became prosperous.

Although he was very advanced as an Ifá speaker, he tried to

get by to end the meetings. One morning he consulted himself
with Ifá and was warned not to underestimate the skill of the Witches, who

no meat from this except for the sweetbread. I also had to offer a
rabbit and a melon (Elegede) to The Witches.

He made the sacrifice to Ifá, but searched in vain for the melon and the rabbit. When
he asked Ifá what to do, and it was said to him to use a chicken, promising to give a
goat to Eshu to see if Eshu could bring forth the melon or the rabbit. He
he gave the chicken to Eshu. The next morning he was in the forest searching
the leaves he needed for his work, encountering along the way the
melon that was picked. Later on, a rabbit crossed his path that also
he grabbed. Immediately after, two men crossed his path who, unbeknownst to him, were
messengers from heaven. These men asked him to let the rabbit go and
he would drop the melon. He refused and explained that he had come to the forest in search of
of a rabbit and a melon to make a special sacrifice that they had
ordered for its prosperity. The men told him to set a price
for these two materials because they had come from the sky seeking it
same.

Up in the sky, the daughter of Orishanlá had job difficulties and in her
divination told them that the Aje Osho should sacrifice a rabbit.
melon. Eagerly wishing to eat the goat promised by Oyeku-
He stepped onto the ground, Eshu ordered all the rabbits and melons of the
sky hide themselves before coming to the earth. The followers of
Orishanlá were struggling to find these two things in the market and
in the forest of the sky and were sent to the earth because of their telescope
telepathic saw that Oyeku-Batrupon had them. Immediately afterward, Eshu took
influence over him and told them that the price was one hundred men, one hundred women,
one hundred goats, one hundred cows, one hundred pieces of cloth, one hundred sacks of beads, one hundred
bags of money, but since the messengers from heaven had no money, he
they asked me to give them the things and that before they arrived at their house the price
mentioned would be there. He gave them the rabbit and the melon in trust and
he returned home. Immediately after, the two messengers returned to heaven,
performing the sacrifice to the daughter of Orishanlá, done under the commitment.

When the messengers narrated the price they had promised to pay
for both things Orishanlá ordered that these appear immediately in
the house of Oyeku-Batrupon on earth. The appearance of these materials in
his house coinciding with his arrival at the same place translated
immediately in prosperity. He offered two goats to Eshu instead of
one that was promised. Holding a great banquet for the people of
town, where the song was sung that was sung by Omojuola.
