    Aboru, Aboye Baba:

    Are you familiar with any case in which the is ‘born initiated into IFA by GOD???’ And, if so, what is the process then — regular study, practice, apprenticeship, and work with the community?

    Modupe and Odabo!

    1. Alaafia;

      No. Remember, communal transference of ase via initiation followed by disciplined study of ese ifa, and related sciences makes a Babalawo. A person may be born with being a Babalawo the purpose of their incarnation, but all rituals and training must be adhered to.

      If your life depended on a surgical procedure, would you have the educated, trained, and practiced surgeon performed the surgery or the person or the person who was borne to be a surgeon, yet lacked the proper education, training, and practice?
