You're absolutely right bembesito there are MAJOR benefits of being initiated into Santeria and all other African diasporic religions! BUT bembesito here's something that I'd like to share about Trickster gods in African diaspora! For instance in my religion which is Haitian Voodoo there is Papa Legba who controls all mischief but Baron Samedi is also a trickster god BUT VERY rarely is Baron Samedi a trickster god!
Iboru, Iboya, Ibosheshe! I have a binder dedicated to Lukumi---It has my Odu, how to take care of my warriors, pataki's etc etc. I am a college student all over again however this time what I learn will help me a lifetime and be passed on to my children and thiers Olofin willing :). I'm in NYC as well and I traveled to my Padrino in Florida.
Personally I'm just curious bembesito if african diaspora have a final judgement like a lot of other religions! I hope you can be patient with me is all bembesito because I never understood if my religion or any other African diaspora has it or not! And are you the best at explaining african diaspora - yes you are so I'd like to know if they do plus bembesito I've got so much respect for you it's almost beyond hilarious on the amount! Personally bembesito if I were a rich man or if I could ever meet you face to face and hang out with you - it'd be an absolute honor to me! Plus you always make good videos because not even once have I been disappointed in even one of your videos!
Plus bembesito I like and respect you so much that it'd be an absolute honor to meet you face to face! So may the gods bless you in every way shape and form! And for another that are just now getting started with Santeria and/or any other African diasporic Religions - you don't have to know everything about your religion to be a devout follower of it! PS - You're a badass Bembesito
Plus you don't have to know everything about your religion period but you have to know at least the basics. I'm trying to learn as a vodouist in training
It depends on the circumstances and location. Initiations cost more in big states and cities, like in California, New York and Texas VS smaller states like Georgia and Florida. Here in South Florida I had seen prices range from 500 to 2,500 depending on the rituals and cost of supplies. I agree with you that prices do range depending on circumstances and what is done. I know I'm saving to do my offical crowning. Videos like your truly helps. Thumbs up most definitely. ASE!
Hey bembesito I'm sorry for asking the same question twice but isn't the point basically awareness and / or Wisdom but to tell you the truth man honestly bembesito I think the point of Santeria is either one of those two or Self improvement
Hey bembesito it's your buddy Matt! Hey bembesito honestly yeah there's a lot of benefits you can/will gain by being initiated into Santeria Haitian Voodoo (my religion) and Dominican Voodoo! But bembesito it's true what I told you when you talking about putting up altars it's truthful but bembesito us white people can have an excellent relationship with even the Petwo loa! Think about it bembesito his wife the great Lourdes maman Brigitte is white BUT you can NOT just summon the Petwo loa for no reason! If anything bembesito you need to have an extremely good reason/reasons to summon the Petwo loa if you don't that will cause the Negative gods to become very angry!
What do you think about the 2 missing boys out of Bakersfield California... Santeria is being mentioned can you help out , the whole world is look for them..
i am very much into getting into this and ive gotta my reading but i dont know if he was apart of the ifa but i am not in a location that has any connections to santeria. There is a Botanica out here where i stay but its never open how do i go about getting in contact with someone who can do this for me where i am located this is a spiritual dyer need i have recently been thru some very life altering experiences i lost my 3 week old baby and i am very lost and i thought i could go back to my child hood religion but all it did was make me MORE invested into this
Bembesito I have a question my man - in every religion there's always this fact that there is an end of time but what is the main belief about that in Haitian Voodoo and Santeria?! That's something even as a VERY loyal Fullbringer I never understood and I'd like to know - who is the Loa that helps Bondye who helps cast final judgement on all of humanity
And in Santeria there's Eshu but he's a VERY positive god according to the Yoruban religion and Santeria! Think about Bembesito! And personally my opinion of you could NOT get any better
I was initiated 30 years ago in NJ my god father passed away a few years ago… I’m in the process of finding a new god father but I don’t know where to start ? I’m in Pennsylvania now .. Ty for the video …
Hey bembesito I have a question and I hope this doesn't sound stupid considering the fact that I'm new to Santeria. But can you syncretize your beliefs with roman catholicism and believe in God and the devil like how Palo and Vodou can or No?
@@MatthewSmith-ik8wc in osha no. We actually do not use the saints or concept of Devil etc. They were at one point syncretized but only as a reference point or as a comparison to something for example Yemaya and the Virgin of regla which has the color blue and protects fishers. The Saints were also mainly used to represent a cabildo which was a mandatory thing by church law. You had to have a Catholic Saint that represented your cabildo. The saints were also decorative in some cases but also used as a counterpart as the Olorisha were also very Catholic. But they in no instance were used as they are in vodou or even in some palo lineages where they Saint is very prominent but there is still a clear distinction that the saints is not the deity.
@@Bembesito How much bembesito does it cost to get initiated into Palo Mayombe Palo Briyumba and Palo Kimbisa? I want to get initiated into all three religions bembesito. I have a few questions about them if you don't mind buddy 1. How does Islam influence Palo 2. How many gods are there in Palo 3. What is the difference between the three of them - Briyumba Kimbisa and Mayombe 4. Do you know anyone in the united states personally that I could approach by either academy etc to be initiated into the three of them 5. Is Eshu venerated into Palo 6. Is Palo stronger than Vodou and Santeria 7. Is Lucero stronger than Eshu 8. How do you summon ancestor spirits 9. Is their a specific way to Practice the three of them or can you do your own thing?
@@Bembesito just kidding but on a much more serious level bembesito I have a question and this is majorly seriously buddy - how much would it cost to be initiated into Palo Mayombe? I need to know because I'm gonna get initiated into it Bembesito it's just that I need to know the finances and what to do because I do have some other questions bembesito and I don't wanna sound dumb because of the major respect that I have for you but here goes 1. Do I have to do readings for a living? 2. Can I do readings in not necessarily just Haitian Vodou but Palo Mayombe without being initiated meaning buddy are there types of readings that non initiates can do or are readings just for the initiates only? 3. What works can I do with Eshu? 4. How many gods are there in Palo Mayombe 5. Is Mayombe the most widespread of the Palo religions branches? 6. Are there protection sigils in Palo Mayombe and if so bembesito do they represent certain deities
Yo estoy confundida. Soy esperitista, tengo el don de nacimiento. Ahora quiero entrar en la religión pero hay q tener cuidado con que padrino te metes. Vivo en Virginia, conseguí un padrino sacerdote en FL. Muy honesto, si tengo q viajar voy a iniciar me en la Santeria. Me dijo q si quiero hacer me Santera en PR es barato. Como unos $6,000 pero No es Lukumi. Yo quiero ser Santera también como se realiza en Cuba. Explícame q es Lukumi y hacer me Santera q no es Lukumi? Gracias 🙏
Saying that to know the guardian Angel have two ways is total disrespect or ignorance, only Orunmila is authorized to tell a person who their guardian Angel is, anything else is a scam.
I'm Dominican I've never touched santeria but I respect the religion from the mother land africa

Hey bembesito I have a question does Haitian Voodoo involve a five pointed star in any of the witchcraft / beliefs and if so how and what does it mean
Hey! What’s the name and significance of the bag with green and pink tassels, to the left of you?
Been ready but why is it so hard to find someone or how to be taught. And or intiated?
Bembesito I have a question my man - in every religion there's always this fact that there is an end of time but what is the main belief about that in Haitian Voodoo and Santeria?!

How can I get my orisha

13:30 with the year and seven days in white, what do you do about required job uniforms or dress codes that cause friction with wearing the white?
You can dress in color for job purpose only and then change as soon as your out
And in Santeria there's Eshu but he's a VERY positive god according to the Yoruban religion and Santeria! Think about Bembesito! And personally my opinion of you could NOT get any better
