Obatala the creator.

Is that governs the head. Obatala teaches us through thought.

The concept that we have in our minds is developed through interaction with every living being on this planet.

When we seek to Obatala, we looked at the top of the mountain. The snow was covering the mountain peak and is seen as the wise old man of the hills. The snow from heaven.

Obatala offering justice, renewal and a new beginning. Cold temperatures, kill plants, animals and sometimes human life.

His children are albinos and those born with physical and / or mental.

Obatala likes dark places. No light is allowed in his kingdom. Thus when we place your altar or shrine, we must place a cloth over it to keep it away from light

Great Orisha, modeler and King of mankind, Father and Mother of all Orishas.

In a couple of Obatala out everyone else. There are 16 Obatala, Orishas and 16 are the lyrics from Diloggún and Ifa. Obatala is the same as the Blessed.

Obba Ibo Obatala is blinding, very old, the mystery of the guiro.

By way Arara, Nana Buluku Obatala is paramount that are two in one, Nana and Buruku. Agguemo or Alaguema, Obatala female and old.

Obatala Obbamoró here is the dress of Jesus of Nazareth. Baba-San Joaquin Fururú which sits to instruct youth.

In Palo Monte Cross, is also Obatala Earth trembles. Mama Kangu is Obatala by congo way.

Ochagriñan, Agguiriñan - Obatala Agguiriñan-is the oldest of all Obatala.

Eruadyé, Eyuaro, is the only child and spoiled Olofi with Iya, static figure, not moving. For Obbamoró punished, first you have to talk to her. Ayagguna is that ignited the gunpowder, war spread across the globe and carried everywhere. Obatala is the youngest. Ekenike also warrior, old and trembling. Talabi is Obatala who is deaf. Yeku Yeku, humility and patience, The Blessed or Holy Face, and like Ochagriñan must ask all backwards. Obatala lives on the hill and all are exquisite and chilly, always cold.
