Sorry, but we are too much babyminded to understand this heavenly truths...
Adressed to KebreAB: do you remember when I told you about those pretty thoughts on RastafarI who claimed strangers philosophies to be main Spriritual principles of the RasTafarI House around the world?
Like RastafarI is escapist-erasing-movement from the old religious tradition, that wants to bring revolution toward the so called "old customs". And many love to speak about theosophy , exotherical mysteries and things....like they're a great and open spiritual mind.
It seems that RasTafarI has to be a man who, to have this so called open spiritual mind, has to include everything exotherical that has been "hidden" by the tradition -like Ethiopia is an european corrupted Christian country-. Many then claim to be true RasTafarI - and not Rastafarian, what a deep conciousness!...- because they have not the "chain of religion", just misinterpreting a Glorious Speech of His Majesty (be praised), and aborring now the true Faith that the Same Emperor referred as to "My Own Faith".
What is worse is that RasTafarI is seen almost as a self religious system that one is allowed to use as he prefers, filling it with everything he wants, his pictures, thaughts, hippy coloured transgressions and liberties, new age picturesque theories, then sticking on them that Name, "RasTafari".
The fact that we have to harmonize the philosophical systems, eastern and western religions, doens not mean that we are allowed to confuse everythin and assume everithing. That's just a messed up puzzle.
Ethiopian is Christian, Ras TafarI is Christian, He Himselfe at His Coronation sweared He would have protected and strenghtened the Orthodox Fatiht of the EthiopianAlexandrian Christian Church. And the Church has not those pretty toughts in mind about Heru, elves and things...
Then, it is no more Christianity, but RasTafarI fulfill Christianity, just as Christianity fulfilled Judaism. But our heritage is Judaism and Christianity, and Christianity is RasTafarI foundation along with Judaism. RasTafarI, as fulfillment, is the Highest Region upon heart, Jerusalem descended from Heaven.
The ininterrupted continuity of the Holy Tradition of Judaism in the Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity is the same now that has to exist between Christianity and RasTafarI; infact, HIM did participate the Church Services, He was Baptized, and received the Christian Sacraments as a Christian does, so that we could understand that the Cross is still the Altar of Salvation, and that RasTafarI doens't abolish It, although He has a New Name and New Ministry.
In the Ethiopian Flag, the Lion bear the Cross indeed, but it is not only the Cross, but the-Lion-and-the-Cross.
That's the same concerning the Davidic Star and the Cross inside of It: Judah's Realm, Realm of Christ Who shed Blood, and now sits on the Throne. Jesus and Haile Selassie are the Same yet, because after His Human Death, Christ can't die anymore: One Flesh, Two Names, Two Comings.
Blessed
