Stories and patakíes

The Ceiba tree

When orumila had to do Ebbo with the leaves of the Ceiba tree, he sent all the Orishas to look for them and they could not climb the hill where the Ceiba tree was and they came back without them, then orumila said: I am going to bring them.

Orumila did osode and did Ebbo and then he left for the hill where the Ceiba tree was.

When he arrived at the hill he could not climb it because the sides were very steep and the Orishas said that Orunmila was a paluchero.

Orunmila took a hoe, a machete and went making circular cuts on the hill in an ascending way making steps until he reached the crown where the Ceiba grew; he took the leaves and returned with them and did the Ebbo with Akuko, eku, eya, hoe and machete to beat his opponents.

Then the Orishas greeted Orunmila.

He has many enemies because where you work or move about you have done things that others did not know how to do.
