The Good Condition Imagine a better world, where true democracy governs. Imagine a communal lifestyle inspired by the total realization of truth, beauty and cooperative economics. Imagine social systems – family, education, healthcare – being reorganized according to universal laws of Creation, as opposed to arbitrary social whims. • Imagine what we could do if we all worked as one • Imagine a world united by a positive vision • Imagine a global movement of optimism, justice and innovation It’s up to us to unleash our collective power and potential, and manifest our natural gifts and talents in service to the Good Condition. We are the Catalysts. True to our character, we cannot be satisfied with completing half the journey. Together, we will bring about the Good Condition, individually and collectively.

Ìjo Ìrosùn Òsé : Infrastructure Baba Imodoye taught me that "Knowing the truth is not enough. The truth has to be organized. " In the Ìrosùn Òsé Spiritual Community, rank and structure is intended to organize the activities necessary for personal and collective realization of the Good Condition, oneness with the Truth of Olódùmarè. I. Alfehinti = The Supporter. These are people who support the mission in various, informal capacities. II. Aburo = The Little Brother/Sister. These are "applicants" to become formalized members. III. Omole = The Family Member. Formalized members, preparing to undergo the first phase of initiation. IV. Omo Akodi = Child of the Family Room. Committed practitioners who study the basics and support the Olori. V. Olórí = The Leader. Mentors of the omo akodi. VI. Olowo = The Respectable One. These members have mastered the weekly worship services & support Omo Awo. EGBÉ The egbé is a spiritual working group. It is a vehicle for selfless service to the Ìrosùn Òsé Spiritual Community.

Obáfémi Orígúnwà, MA: Advisor …to help create mental maps that guide and shape your perception and action • ENERGY IS UNIVERSAL: Every thought, emotion and action either increases, neutralizes or depletes your energy. Reaching the Good Condition is an inside-out journey that requires skillful energy management. As your Personal Sustainability Coach I will work with you individually to help you establish personal rituals that balance the expenditure and restoration of energy. • ASPIRATIONS ARE TRANSCENDENTAL: Aspirations reveal the secret behind beliefs, motivations and behavior. The better you understand your aspirations, the easier it will be to understand influence your own behavior. Aspirations represent those habits of thought and behavior closely associated with personal greatness. As your Personal Sustainability Coach, I will help you realize how your aspirations manifest in your life, how to balance them and use them to get what you want, in all matters concerning health, love, living and wealth. • A SYSTEMS APPROACH IS TRANSFORMATIONAL: What we fail to see – in our beliefs, thoughts and behaviors – holds us prisoner. My style of Personal Sustainability Coaching is ideal for “caterpillars determined to become butterflies. ” Step by step, I will work with you to create permanent and fundamental shifts in your view of yourself, your family and your purpose.

Obáfémi Orígúnwà, MA: Priest …to facilitate your connection to ancestral and spiritual blessings What is clear is simple. What is simple gets done. Divination, Sacrifice & Observances is a timeless, step-by-step process to help you solve problems as well as achieve goals, from healthy living to loving relationships. DIVINATION: The power of accurate Assessment cannot be overstated. It explains where you're coming from, where you are and helps you identify where you want to be. Most importantly, Assessment allows you to define and even anticipate what you need to do in order to minimize threats and maximize opportunities on the journey. SACRIFICE: Based on the clear direction outlined during Assessment, now you can focus your efforts on "doing the work". Transformative work is removing obstacles and leveraging strengths. Knowledge is potential. Action is power. OBSERVANCES: With the "heavy lifting" done, personal rituals will both energize your highest aspirations and stabilize your environment. Like brushing your teeth, bathing and eating dinner with your family, rituals are small acts that have a big impact on your well-being.

Results: A Virtuous Cycle My unique offering creates a virtuous cycle through which your awareness, action and change reinforce one another in realization of the Good Condition. Awareness: when we know better we can do better, for ourselves, our loved ones and our communities. Knowledge, wisdom and understanding are essential to happiness. Action: Knowledge is potential. Action releases magic, power and grace. When we commit to an action, the universe responds and all sorts of opportunities abound. Change: Action creates change. And even when the change is favorable, it also creates struggle; unknown, awkward, emotional, spiritual and physical territory. Struggle builds character. Embrace change.
