The Sacred Role of the Ìlẹ̀ in Yorùbá Spirituality
The Ìlẹ̀ is the spiritual hearth of Yorùbá tradition—where rituals are preserved, ancestors are honored, and divine connection is nurtured. It’s a place of community, mentorship, and sacred continuity, guiding devotees toward alignment with Orà and the Orisa. From naming ceremonies to ancestral altars, the Ìlẹ̀ sustains both personal transformation and cultural survival—especially for younger generations reclaiming their roots.
