About Yemanja
Is an orisha, originally of the Yoruba religion, who has become prominent in many
Afro-American religions.
Africans from what is now called Yorubaland brought Yemaya/Yemoja and a host
of other deities/energy forces in nature with them when they were brought to the shores
of the Americas as captives.
She is the ocean, the essence of motherhood, and a protector of children.
Prayer to Yemanja
Yemanjá, you are within us as the waters and salts of our bodies,
and we are within you as the embodiment of life;
Please, we ask not that you forgive our abuse – the greed and piracy
that have always exploited you,
raped your depths,
and murdered the creatures sustained by you alone –
rather we ask that you inspire us to a better way to live with you,
in use of you, without abuse of you.
We ask not that you withhold your justified anger,
but that you use it to destroy our delusions of superiority to nature
and compel recognition of ourselves as part of nature,
despite the vanity and pride in our human nature.
Please refill our rivers and lakes with waters of the same pristine clarity
as the human mind in its choice of wisdom over waste;
end the droughts of the world
that are metaphorical manifestations of the withering of the human spirit
amidst the stresses of worldly life and the confusion of progress;
purify that which we drink
so that human life in its totality may be enduringly nourished;
quench our thirst by refilling our hearts
so that we may again drink of the beauty of your truth
that is primeval within us, though we forget.
Yemanja, have mercy on us;
bathe us in your compassion
as vast as your realm,
as infinite as your tides;
bestow your waves as breakers of ignorance and offense
and return to our consciousness the humility of our souls
as our tears return to you as their source.
