Critics Review
“The sheer amount of information contained within the covers of this book is astounding. I have never seen a book which explains this type of divination in anything like this amount of detail.”
“Stuart Meyers is to be congratulated and commended for producing this strikingly beautiful volume.” * Edward Batchelor, Jr., Yale University, November 2003 *
“Every nook, cranny and crack of Santeria is covered, explained, demonstrated and laid out in clear, simple terms.” * Vision Magazine, April 2004 *
“The Diloggun is an indispensable guide to the mysteries of the orshas.” * SirReadaLot.org, March 2004 *
“In this new book Ócha’ni Lele has brought together information never before published for the education of serious students of divination, and for use by initiated practitioners of African traditional religions, especially those who follow La Regla de Ocha. In doing so, he has more than justified his own claim that ‘one cannot overstate the academic and scholastic value’ of this work.” * Edward Batchelor, Jr., Fellow in Religion,Yale University *
“The sheer amount of information contained within the covers of this book is astounding. I have never seen a book which explains this type of divination in anything like this amount of detail.” * Mike Gleason, Witchgrove.org, April 2007 *
“The first important work to document the art of Diloggun reading thoroughly in English.” * Eric Lerner, Oya N’Soro: Oya Speaks!, October 2003, Vol. 1 Edition 2 *
“The effort that went into writing this book is only exceeded by the expertise required to write it. Ócha’ni Lele has produced a highly significant addition to the body of lore on Lucumé/Santería that is valuable for its comprehensive insights and its value to prosperity in the religious tradition. Kudos to the editors and publisher of this book for accepting such a massive undertaking. Well done!” * Elizabeth Hazel, FacingNort.net, September 2011 *
