"Your Lesson" from Marcus Garvey.....
1. The skies and stars are there, and sun and moon,
They move and shine for you and me each day,
Our journey here is short-exit is soon,
In such a change to be I have no say.
2. But in the link between this life and death,
I am the master of myself, I know;
I gather knowledge with natural breath,
And I shall surely reap just what I sow.
3. Yes, from the world I learn a lesson true,
No race nor colour proves me less in clan;
I need not quibble for or curse my hue,
That makes of me, like anyone, a man.
4. My God, so great, has made all things and me,
My place and grip on life are ever here;
So inferior being I ne'er shall be,
I learn from Nature grand, that's everywhere.
I hesitate to talk of i experience because I-dren must seek within the I to know. I share I experience for meditation not for direction or misdirection. Ras, know the I for INI..."why do you quest the "nazerite vow" what do the I expect from it, what purpose-you decide not she he me or u..
THe I asked about living the Nazerite Vow...The things that are sited in the text about hair, dead bodies, grapes is the things of the flesh that ones consider. KNOW these are mere things of the flesh that takes away livication to JAH. The flesh is alays drwing form the spirit. When I first take vow, i don't overstand the reason. First I want to follow these "rule" unknown purpose as some sort of discpline. Discpline, used in the way as opposite of reward- you check is what Religion has taught Us. Because at that point of I livity i was still a slave of Babylonian education religion $hti$tem that is self denial and self hate. But the "DISCIPLES" of Jesus weren't punished...nah man they site KNOWLEDGE.
Soon I site that these things that the vow abstains from are nothing... Nothing up lifting. INI speak of grapes today for example...Grapes are sighted as natural and from the earth, yet man make alcohol and it misused as bad spirits---site the indigenous peoples all over the earth who have been visted by this scourge....Well that no problem, just don't drink, i was living in the bush at that time...no problem. GROWiNG AND PREPARING ITAL blessed livity...
When I come to USA, then I site that Babylon putting grapes in everything, oils, juices, salsa, dressings such and such and no bush to make own food. OK more difficult and even considered for a bit, that the spirit of the vow more important that the rules, for CONVENIENCE. NAH mon. FOR ini, the vow was I-LIVivity and I site freedom from dependence. FOr InI, the grape thing brought about mediation about LIVITY. If I cannot control I self what I don't want to eat, how can I be strong for battles of the spirit, the mind and the body? InI not stopping anyone from thier wine drinking, thier grapejuice drinking or grape eating....Ya check....
I site I have been caring for my Babylonian-raised nieces and nephew youths lately and siting what they be eating? Manufactured thigs whenever wherever and not one bit of nutrition, blessing nor health. All those "fruit" juices are filled with Grape juice....That is preparing a body of flesh that will be trained in the taste of wine drinking and such in a place such as this BABYLON where that is the "SpiriT"----drugs.....Just like Salt... Salt in everything that it don't need to be in,,,but it a corruption of Babylon to get ones addicted, craving those things... those things that Babylon uses to control ones...to sell you medication of synthetic making.
It is a mystical thing...I chose the vow for INI, for the strengthening of I flesh to flee from the things of the flesh. IT IS FREEING. Freedom from all that has no purpose. Idon;t want those things.....nah mon.
Nazerite vow for INI is root. It is being essential, base, in the groundation, composting soil, livity that is dirty and not as lovely as the fruit of the vine, the leaves the branches.....but essential living blessed with all the nature of sunlight and water and air...endless timeless. BUt it is freedom from the vanity of such. IT is a mystical thing, but so organic.
May this be overstanding ras. I'll sign off now, but look forward to INI meditation on this if the Ras so be it.
FREEDOM to eat the food that I grow and prepare. IT is difficult here in the BABYLON. IN the convenience that Babyon offers to sell is where One falls. Desiring more to please people who offer hospitaltity I was fed something that had vinegar in it. Did the vinegar make I ill? No, it was the KNOWLEDGE of I carelesness and irreverance of I vow that made I ill. Uplifting the compfrt of I and I hosts over the precept of Jah. The blessing of the illness is humility. It is the discpline of the vow that strengthens INI. Discpline is not punishment,,,it is knowledge. Experience is the hard way to know something...BUT INI SEEK TO KNOW.
Blessed love, Ras. Let INI reason in oneness. LOVE IS THE ONLY LAW TO OBEY.
