The Orishas of Yoruba Beliefs The Complete list
Orishas come to us from the people of West Africa most directly from the people of Benin and Togo, and Nigeria. described as intermediaries between humankind and the supernatural. The term is also translated as “Deities”, “Divinities” or “Gods”
It shares some parallels with the Vodun practiced by the neighboring Fon and Ewe peoples to the west…

Love the video – but the pronunciations are very western lol 😅
I'm sorry, that is a U sir. Not an A. I appreciate the video, but you can't pronounce U?
Thank you! Excellent video.
Ummm, you’re missing a few, hundred.
Monotheism vs Polytheism is a Western debate..
Not the type of video that someone who sounds of EUROPEAN ancestry should be moderating.

3 sailboats didn't bring millions of Africans into the United States, you were already over here and WHITE PEOPLE came from Europe in boats. The root word of slave is SLAVIC not African.
What white person in pronouncing these words?? You need to definitely listen to how the people of the culture pronounce the names of the orishas…its almost disrespectful…
My queen Ajé is missing 😢, besides the pronunciations, it was a good video.
The Orishas are different manifestations of God correct?
Brahma is actually the same as shiva and Vishnu, in the sense that they are aspects of the reality of Brahman, other than that great vid thanks for making it!
Yemaya and Yemoja are the same goddess, good video though
It would be cool to have a movie to show their powers and faith of the children
I subscribed at once viewing your list of videos. Like, “omg somebody like me that studies it alllll.” Totally impressed. Ready to dive in. Thank you ☺️☺️☺️
You don't merge catholicism with ifa. You can't be lukewarm.
Decent video. I just cringed 😬 every time you butchered one of the Orishas names… 🤦🏽♀️ but 🤷🏽♀️
All polytheistic folk religions share interesting similarities and differences.
I always perceived Orishas as Archetypes.
Good video but maybe practice saying the names correctly.
Thank you. I had a book on these but I lost it. 😅
well done on the video. keep it up man!
Yoruba, ( sounded out as Yo ro ba) , good video though.
A spiritual system that predates modern religions.
