Ngubani u-Eleggua?
Ngaphakathi kwentsomi yaseYoruba i-Elegua ifanekisela ukhuseleko okokuqala kuba ivumela ukuvula iindlela zabo baqalwe kule nkolo kuba kufuneka bamkele kwaye bayingcwalise iminikelo kuyo, ikwabizwa ngegama elithi Ligua, Legua okanye Liwaa.
Ngokwenyani lo thixo waseYoruba obizwa ngokuba ngu-Elegua nguye ophetheyo ukuvula okanye ukuvala iindlela zobomi zabasebenzi beli hlelo kwaye ngokobubele bakhe ubuninzi, impumelelo, ithamsanqa kunye nolonwabo luya kuza, unoxanduva lokunika amashwa kwaye oko. ichaphazela amanye amaqanda.
Eli gama lithetha imimoya yookhokho beSanteros esele ilishiyile ilizwe elingaphantsi komhlaba neyaziwa ngokuba ihluthiweyo, idla ngokuvela xa abanye abazinikele kule nkolo besifa kwaye xa besenza imizimba yenyama baziwa ngegama elithi Eggun kwaye baphantsi kolawulo lokumkani wabo ogama linguOduduwá. ngubani omnye orisha ubungcwele.
Nangona kubonakala kungaqhelekanga okanye kungavamile, inkolo yamaKatolika kunye neYoruba ifana nokuba kwiinkonzo zombini iSanto Niño de Atocha ibonwa, emele uYesu ebuntwaneni kunye neSan Antonio de Padua.
Le ngcwele yamaKatolika iyahlonelwa kwaye ihlonelwa kumazwe amaninzi anjengeSpain, iHonduras, iMexico, iColombia, iiPhilippines neVenezuela.
Umfanekiso wayo oyintloko utholakala kwikomkhulu laseMadrid kwiRoyal Basilica ye-Lady yethu yase-Atocha, kodwa nangona kufana nokufana, akufanele badideke ekubeni i-Elegua i-orisha yaseYoruba okanye iSanteria mythology evela eAfrika.
Ukususela kumaxesha ekoloniyali, le mythology yafika kwilizwekazi laseMelika, u-Elegua unguthixo othi, ngaphezu kokucelwa, unikezwa iminikelo kunye nezithethe ezifana nemidaniso yomthonyama evela kwiingcambu zakhe zaseAfrika. Ngulo thixo olawula ulonwabo kunye nosizi lwabazinikeleyo kule mythology.
Ngu-Elegua owenza isigqibo ngobutyebi bomntu ngamnye ozinikeleyo kule nkcubeko ethathwa njengenkosana ethanda ukwenza ububi yinzala ethe ngqo ka-Olodumare eya kuba nguMdali onguSomandla uThixo wobomi phezu kobuso bomhlaba.
Ngoko u-Elegua ungumlamli phakathi kwehlabathi lasemhlabeni kunye nehlabathi likayise u-Olodumare, ngoko ke uvumela iminikelo ukuba ifike kuyise, ongumdali womhlaba wonke kwaye enkosi kule nkosana yesithunywa, ibhalansi igcinwa kwi-mythology.
Iintsomi malunga nemvelaphi yayo
Ngokubhekiselele kwigama lesithixo u-Elegua kwintsomi yaseYoruba, yazalelwa kwilizwekazi laseAfrika kwaye ngenxa yobukoloniyali le nkolo yadluliselwa kwizizwe zaseMelika.
Ngokukodwa eSanteria, eCuba naseVenezuela ingamazwe apho intlonipho neminikelo igcinwa kuye, kuba kwamanye amazwe anjengeColombia neBrazil lo thixo waziwa ngegama likaCandomblé.
Ngokwamabali amandulo, esi sithixo sasentsomini saseYoruba ekuthiwa ngu-Elegua ngomnye woothixo abasixhenxe bale nkolo eyaziwa ngegama elithi Yoruba Pantheon, esi sithixo yinkosana kwaye uyise yayingu-Okuboro owayengukumkani waseAñagui.
Kwakhona kuchazwe kwamanye amabali ukuba u-Elegua ngunyana ka-Obatalá uMdali woMhlaba kunye no-Yembo umfazi wakhe wokuqala, wayengumntakwabo kaChangó, u-Ozum, u-Oggun kunye no-Orunmila bonke bangama-orisha oothixo.
Ngenye imini ekubhaduleni kweNkosana u-Eleguá, wafumana into phantsi eyatsala ingqalelo yakhe kuba yayikhupha ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo ngamehlo ayo amathathu, le yayiyi-coconut eyomileyo. wathetha naye watsho embombozela amazwi ambalwa kuye.
La mabinzana ukuba iziqhamo ezomisiweyo ezikhutshelwe Elegua kwaba imfuneko ixhaphakile ukuba amnyamekele ukusuka iintshulube kunye amanundu ezinokumenza umonakalo kunye nokutya inyama yakhe ngokusebenzisa esi sicelo inika impilo kunye nokuchuma kwinkosana usana ngokubuyisela.
Ngenxa yoko, uthixo u-Elegua wathembisa iziqhamo ezomisiweyo ukuba uya kumnyamekela waza wamsa kwibhotwe apho wayehlala khona, xa efika enqabeni waza wabalisa ibali bahlekisa ngaye ngaphezu kokususa i-coconut kwaye ukudlala ngeziqhamo ezomisiweyo kwelinye icala.kwelinye ngaphandle kokuba omncinci akwazi ukukuthatha ezandleni zakhe ukumkhusela.
Bade bafihla iziqhamo ezomisiweyo emva kocango ngesicelo somcebisi kwaye ukumkani wamkela iqhinga ukuze u-Elegua osemncinci alibale malunga nekhokhonathi, kodwa kwenzeka into emangalisayo ngenxa yokuba inkosana encinci yagula ngesifo esingaqhelekanga esamtya ngexesha. inkqubo yeentsuku ezintathu.
Ngoko inkundla yalila ngenxa yokulahlekelwa ngumzimba weNkosana u-Elegua kwaye yaqonda ukuba esi sifo sibangelwa ukungahoywa ngqalelo kwi-bogeyman eyayinayo ngaphakathi kwayo ingqiqo enhle eyayicatshulwe ngamalungu enkundla.
Ukususela ngaloo mzuzu ukuya phambili, i-coconut iqala ukuhlonelwa, icela ukuxolelwa kwayo, kodwa amehlo ayo amathathu awazange aphinde akhanye. Ngenxa yoko kwenzekayo, abacebisi bacebisa ukumkani ukuba abeke amehlo, umlomo neendlebe ukuze akwazi ukubona, ukuva nokuthetha.
Ngoko i-genius ibuya ukususela ekubeni amehlo akhe yayiziinkumba ezimbini, iigobolondo ezimbini njengeendlebe zokukwazi ukuva imithandazo yabazinikeleyo kunye nomlomo ukuze ukwazi ukuthetha nokudlulisa izicwangciso zakhe kubalandeli bale ntsomi yaseYoruba.
Ngalesi senzo, i-Elegua i-orisha efakwe kwindlu yabasebenzi bale nkolo ngendlela yelitye, ibeka emva kocango, ukukhusela indlu kunye nokugcina izitshixo ezivumela ulonwabo ukuba lusondele kwaye olubi kuyo. Ubomi bezidalwa ukuba buhambe, abantu nangona yena ethanda ububi.
Lo thixo wentsomi yaseYoruba u-Elegua wavela kwiingcambu zaseAfrika kwaye eCuba bamkela iinkolelo zamaKatolika ukuba baqhubeke nentsomi yesiYoruba.
Apho u-Elegua wayemelwe ngamatye kwaye wayengumthunywa woothixo u-Olofin oye waphinda ubonakaliso lwesithathu lwe-Olodumare, uthixo oyintloko kunye nokuphela kothixo kule nkcubeko.
UElegua umelwe ngenani lesithathu lenyanga nganye, usuku aluthandayo yiMivulo nemibala emfuziselayo ibomvu nemnyama kwisenzo ngasinye sonqulo esiqhutywayo.
Owokuqala u-orisha ukuya ngu-Elegua kwaye ungowokugqibela ukuhamba oko ejongene nokuvula okanye ukuvala iindlela kuba ephethe ukuzalwa nokufa.
Ngoko ke, ekuqaleni kwezithethe kwiintsomi zaseYoruba, ngu-Elegua lowo abazinikeleyo bambiza okokuqala, kunye nokuba ngowokugqibela ukuhamba, ekubeni ungumthwali wezitshixo zokuzalwa nokufa.
