Produktbeschreibung
This work is composed of various propositions and interpretations that initially bring to light the essence of the knowledge and teachings of the African tradition of Ifá. We find that there is a form of African philosophy that has been passed down for over six thousand years, founded on Egyptian customs that still persist today with the same values, principles, and virtues, which we can call a philosophical tradition. encompassing binary mathematics as a form of learning and memorisation. We cannot fail to highlight aesthetics and art, which are mistakenly and generically viewed by many as abstract. In this book, we show that African art itself is not entirely abstract if we consider the philosophy behind geometric lines. In this book, we highlight that the iridology map is symmetrical to African knowledge due to the Odus in relation to the human vital organs and the possible diseases linked to Odun omens. We believe that the interdisciplinary nature of this tradition is an unparalleled resource for epistemic development in future works, and that it represents a revival of identity and belonging for people of African descent.
