Our great religion, ifa, teaches humility

Listen to this from Ogunda di;
Looto e o lowo lowo
Looto e o la la la
E ma gbori esin yin boru s’alawo
Translation
It is true you will have so much money
It is certain you will have wealth
Don’t greet your oluwo/elders with just waive of the hands while still seated on your horse.
Can anyone decode this message?
From my own perspective, ifa is recommending due respect to your oluwo/mentors/teachers/elders/co-priests/colleagues etc no matter the position you find yourself. If it is necessary, park your automobile, come out and show courtesy to the above by decent salutation. If you are still riding a horse, come down and show good character even if you are a billionaire.
Yorubas say,”eni ti o ba rera re sile ni Olorun ngbega”, meaning “only those who show humility are uplifted by God”.
Stay blessed.
From Araba of Oworonsoki Kingdom, Lagos Nigeria
