High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Yoruba religion comprises religious beliefs and practices of the Yoruba people of old before the Yoruba community encountered Islam, Christianity and other faiths. It originated from Africa (chiefly in Nigeria and Benin), and in the New World, where it has influenced or given birth to several Afro-American religions such as Lucumi in Cuba and Umbanda and Candomble in Brazil in addition to the transplantation of the homeland religions. Yoruba religious beliefs are part of itan — the complex of songs, histories, stories and other cultural concepts which make up the Yoruba religion and society. The Yoruba Creation Story is central to this religion. Yoruba philosophy holds that all humans have the Ayanmo (destiny, fate) to become one in spirit with Olodumare (Olorun, the divine creator and source of all energy).
