ARUOKUN-Revelation Of Mystery Of Mount Anubode

But now know IZODUWA as Avatar or Key to the religion of my African Roots.

I was brought up in the religion of our colonial masters in Nigeria. That is Christianity. However, I was initiated into a masquerade cult before age ten. I had experiences decades later in W. Berlin. They were nightmarish encounters with images of African masquerades. I embraced Nordic Runic mysteries in an attempt to solve the problem. This was the third alternative to Christianity and African masquerade. I liberated myself. My newly acquired divination capabilities opened the world of all mysteries to me. These were beyond world of spirits of African Tradition Religion. The insight into the supernatural world resulted in my engaging in activities in Nigeria when I returned. These led to my being ordained OBOIRO at about age fifty. This was in 1990. Oboiro is a medium, transcendental diviner, metaphysician, creator of EBO.

MAIN OBSTACLE

I divined that identifying with Adam and the curse on his descendants was the most powerful obstacle to the realization of the religion of my roots. I divined further the source of some of the inspirations that would turn out to be IZODUWA of a legend in Benin kingdom (Nigeria). I realized who he is recently as I am working at present on a UNIFIED METAPHYSICS OF FUNDAMENTAL IDEAS AND BASIC ATTITUDES OF THE AFRICAN. I moved consequently to Ughoton (GWATO in UNESCO records), the village where his transfiguration took place over a thousand years ago.

Izoduwa of ancient Benin Kingdom was born Ekaladerhan. He was the only son of Owodo his father, who was the ogiso (divine ruler or priest king of the kingdom then called Igodomigodo). His father who had many wives had him alone as child. He needed more. He sought solution from a diviner. Tradition tells us that the diviner was an oboiro. He was a fake because he relied on a device called OGUEGA for divination outside his person. This misled him into recommending that a human being be sacrificed. I would never advice that anything be sacrificed because my line of divination does not include the questions, “What should I sacrifice, and to whom?”

The fake oboiro advised that the first wife of ogiso be sacrificed. She manipulated the others in the delegation to the oracle to change the message, namely that Ekaladerhan rather than she should be sacrificed.

Ogiso ordered that the members of the delegation to the oracle should carry out in the jungle, the will of the oracle. The executors who knew the truth revealed it to him on the way and set him free. He was left to his destiny or fate in the jungle just as Moses was left to wander and die in the Sahara desert. He was thus cut off from the stream of living according to the dictates of the oracle.

He was left to his DESTINY. He had no adviser except his EHI (transcendental spiritual self, destiny, or controller of destiny accessible through one’s HEAD; guardian spirit). No one is really alone for any moment in life, because EHI was always present like one’s shadow.

He knew no peace until he realized the link between his head and his EHI. Revelation came to his consciousness immediately. He realized instantly that his destiny was in his own hands alone.

He decreed a new name for him which was IZODUWA, meaning “I choose the path of fortune”. He took over the control of his fate and changed it from that of one without direction, hope, or focus. His spiritual path transformed from the one determined by the oracle and mundane initiation and became the path of divine initiation that would result in fulfillment of the akhasẹ (logos) of that word Izoduwa. He started on the path of divine initiation that will conclude with him becoming an avatar as Izoduwa.

He found Eziza, the “old man” of the bush who initiated all would-be creators of entities, especially out of plants and reeds. The agents will nurture what the owner wills to fruition.

Izoduwa developed and attained the powers to communicate with the spirit or “destiny” of everything. This is the power that goes with becoming Oboiro. He hence learned the names of animals from them. Izoduwa could communicate with animals in their languages.

Izoduwa attained complete knowledge through transcendental or oboiro-divination. He could discern their destiny directly from source. He applied his powers to replicate him.

Izoduwa later metamorphosed to join avbe-osa by living this world for the next without physical death. People of the neighboring ethnic group observed one of his images with a staff descend from the sky amidst over four hundred deities. They asked the being what his name was and he answered, “Oduduwa”. They acclaimed the being their primordial ancestor.

Unlike Wodan, Moses, and Avatar of other lands, Izoduwa did not return in flesh and blood. His time has come as the deliverer now. He will guide through a different method of divination. This method is necessarily different from the one that led to his exile.

Meaning Of Divine Initiation Of Izoduwa

The real divine purpose of his being offered was to become an avatar that is to transform world history. We His descendants will follow his path of fortune and prosperity. Africa north and south of the Sahara desert produced the magic for those that rule the visible and invisible worlds. Recognizing Him and forming a team with Him now opened the threshold that shut us out from the religion of our roots.
