Orunmila: Deity of Wisdom – Kinywa (Superlative Oracle)

Throughout the entire sphere of Afrikan life the supreme qualities of the Creator Supreme irradiate excellence in spirit beingness. The ultimate wisdom of the Creator Supreme is the quality that is represented by the deity Orunmila who lifts the sacred Afrikan soul to the pinnacle heights of knowingness. During the celebration of Afrikan history the might of Orunmila empowers the lives of Afrikan souls throughout the world with capacity to glean from, create and project their own continuum. The longest and most magnificent continuum of any people - the eternal Afrikan continuum. With energies punctuated the with profound sacred wisdom texts of the soul people of creation and the sacred universe at large the work of Orunmila is that of pinnacle Afrikan ascension. He charts the path of elevation as the supreme wisdom guide subordinate only to the Creator Supreme. The road of ever greater upliftment comes with cautions and warning signs of ultimate experience that safeguard imperative progressive Afrikan journeying. He is omniscient. He is living Afrikan history of the then, the now and the eternal tomorrows to come. Orunmila is the wisdom guide for the wisdom guide. He was living witness to creation itself and thus informs and energises the superlative genius flow of Afrikan creativity in the most powerful wisdom tradition of any people. Afrikan wisdom lives. Sacred Afrikan history lives. Afrikan history is living history. Orunmila lives.

Characteristics of Orunmila can be grouped in the following way with Kiswahili identifiers as follows:

Kinywa  (Superlative Oracle)

Mwango wa Kujua (Illuminator of Living Knowingness)

Uungu ulio Hai (Divinity Enlivener)

Viwango vya Usafi (Purity standard bearer)

Viwango vya Maadili (Bearer of Morality)

Nabii wa Kimungu (Divine Prophesier)

The first characteristic Kinywa (Superlative Oracle) is further detailed thus:

Orunmila is a deity of Creation who participated in the world coming to be. Orunmila then, holds superlative knowingness of the world and the sacred universe, and special connection with the Creator Supreme.

Orunmila carries a thrust of all-knowingness from the omniscience of the Creator Supreme. Orunmila’s knowing comes not only from being present at the dawn of creation but also being an active participant in bringing creation to be. This powerful deity empowers Afrikans of the world both to know their divine origin and to bring phenomena to be (or direct phenomena) for the betterment of Afrikan souls.  Afrikan souls can and must bring their knowingness of the Creator Supreme, the self and the sacred universe to the fore for maximal progressive expression of life. This is natural assertion for the Afrikan from one generation to the next, onward into eternity.

Every Afrikan soul is naturally and divinely ascribed to be his or her fullest self from which full liberty and nationhood are expressed.  In this, the marvellous spirit ones of creation are not part Afrikan. Rather, this magnificent people have been brought into being to maximally flourish as their full and divine Afrikan selves. They were not birthed to be ill-existing as partly themselves or partly free. They are divinely ascribed to be expressive of full liberty. There is a sometimes popular saying that a half truth is a lie. This is cited here to illustrate that the unnatural assertion of being partly Afrikan is a position of unfreedom.  Yet, hostile enemy impositions have compelled far too many Afrikan souls throughout the world to engage in a ‘split personality’ survival mode of existence. As many have articulated throughout the Afrikan history continuum: Either the Afrikan is free or is not free. Either the Afrikan is free or the Afrikan is enslaved.

The enemy desperately attempts to deflect attention from his despicable deeds by bogusly claiming that somehow Afrikan souls are a people innately unhappy with life and everything in the world. Of course, in reality the world for the alien enemy is his futile attempt at constructing a perpetually oppressive, exploitive and genocidal reality that the Afrikan must be grateful to have imposed.  In realty, Afrikan souls of the world are innately of Haki (Righteousness) and their souls can never be at ease with the affliction of an enemy onslaught in whatever guise.

The wonderful Afrikan history continuum is filled with the wisdom and wisdom tools necessary to restore the Afrikan world community to its rightful place of centrality in the sacred universe. Orunmila is the supreme wisdom guide that shines the light of empowerment through knowingness upon every Afrikan soul. In honouring and restoring Orunmila in the lives of Afrikan souls, the wisdom for the continual journeying of Afrikan history into the eternity to come is fully manifest. The colours of Orunmila are Kijani (Green) and Njano (Yellow). These reflect the profound colours of eternal growth, development and powerfully prosperous energy.  Orunmila lives. Sacred Afrikan history lives. Afrikan history is living history.
