Your subscription gives you access to the weekly videos , archives, and verses offered in Yoruba and English. (Spanish pending) and the community support group allowing for questions. You will not be able to download any book with all of the verses. You will need to write them by hand and take notes as generations of the past and a part of traditional training to develop discipline and help you remember. This offering is 1 verse per Odu with itan narrative and chant to make 256 verses in one year. The Araba will offer another set of verses in 2027 pending how this program goes.
