Yoruba philosophy
Yoruba philosophy emphasizes harmony, community, and respect for natural and spiritual forces. It views life as interconnected, where individuals are part of a larger cosmos, guided by moral principles and ancestral wisdom. Key concepts include "Ase" (the power to make things happen), "Ori" (inner consciousness or destiny), and reverence for ancestors who influence the present. This worldview encourages balance between material and spiritual realms, fostering a sense of responsibility, morality, and interconnectedness in everyday life.
