Greetings in the name of the Most High Jah RasTafarI Haile I Selassie I.

I just wanted to bring this forward, its so Irie, so Ivine. Jah Bless.




Spirituality

The Lion of Judah has prevailed
Haile Selassie I, Elect of God
King of Kings of Ethiopia

"The temple of the most high begins with the human body, which houses our life, essence of our existence. Africans are in bondage today because they approach spirituality through Religion provided by foreign invaders and conquerors. We must stop confusing religion and spirituality. Religion is a set of rules, regulations and rituals created by humans which were supposed to help people grow spiritually.

Due to human imperfection religion has become corrupt, political, divisive and a tool for power struggle. Spirituality is not theology or ideology. It is simply a way of life, pure and original as was given by the Most High. Spirituality is a network linking us to the Most High, the universe and each other. As the essence of our existence it embodies our culture, true identity, nationhood and destiny. A people without a nation they can really call their own is a people without a soul. Africa is our nation and is in spiritual and physical bondage because her leaders are turning to outside forces for solutions to African problems when everything Africa needs is within her. When African righteous people come together, the world will come together. This is our divine destiny."



Give thanks and Ises unto the Ruler of InI, Irator of InI dwelling place, the Chain that inevitably links InI as One ForIver, JAH! RasTafarI Haile I Selassie I.

that then leads I to this. It helped I overstand that InI live in footsteps of HIM, Jeshua, Iyah Marcus, Immanuel, Jah him/her-self. In light of this, InI need to be like the Ones who help teach InI how to live Iteously in Jah sight, in other words, InI live by example to help teach Ones the way of Christ, to help Ones overstand a Christly Livity. Give Thanks and Ises.



Leadership

The Lion of Judah has prevailed
Haile Selassie I, Elect of God
King of Kings of Ethiopia

"Leadership does not mean domination. The world is always well supplied with people who wish to rule and dominate others.

The true leader is a different sort; he seeks effective activity which has a truly beneficient purpose. He inspires others to follow in his wake, and holding aloft the torch of wisdom, leads the way for society to realize its genuinely great aspirations.

The art of leadership is in the ability to make people want to work for you, while they are really under no obligation to do so. Leaders are people, who raise the standards by which they judge themselves and by which they are willing to be judged. The goal chosen, the objective selected, the requirements imposed, are not mainly for their followers alone.

They develop with consumate energy and devotion, their own skill and knowledge in order to reach the standard they themselves have set.

This whole-hearted acceptance of the demands imposed by even higher standards is the basis of all human progress. A love of higher quality, we must remember, is essential in a leader.

The true leader is one who realizes by faith that he is an instrument in the hands of God, and dedicates himself to be a guide and inspirer of the nobler sentiments and aspirations of the people.

He who would be a leader must pay the price in self-discipline and moral restraints. This details the correction and improvement of his personal character, the checking of passions and desires and an exemplary control of one's bodily needs and desires.

To be first in place, one must be first in merit as well.

He who has not learned to render prompt and willing service to others will find it difficult to win and keep the goodwill and cooperation of his subordinates.

A leader will kindle interest, teach, aid, correct and inspire. Those whom he leads will cooperate with him in maintaining discipline for the good of the group. He will instruct his followers in the goals towards which to strive, and create in them a sense of mutual effort for attaining the goal."




Jah Bless InI this evening, Help InI to Live as the I, show InI the Light of the I, InI Give thanks and Ises unto the I Imighty Irator, qedamawee, qedemawee, Haile I Selassie I JAH! RasTafarI. Iver Livin, Iver Faithful, Iver Sure.

to top it all off, an Irie Fiyah by INI Marcus Mosiah Garvey. Haile I!!!!!


Marcus - Be King Of Circumstances



The rise of nations and of men

Record their struggles passed and won,

But none may tell just where and when

The urge did come and thus begun.

It might have been through glorious deeds

Performed by earlier men of fame,

Whose inspiration often leads

To visions that remake a name.



A Constantine, Alexander, too,

A Hannibal and Caesar great

May change the thought of even you

And give a hero to the State.

To read the deeds of men renowned

Will make you choose a given course

That often strikes tire note profound,

Revealing thus the man of force.



The deeds we do must make the race

And force the nation to the top,

And when we gain the honour place

We forge ahead and never Stop.

Keep winning more and still some more,

And set a pace for fainter heart;

Your deeds shall spread from shore to shore,

And worlds shall know you played your part.



Though black of race you are, my friend,

Your part in life is ever here:

There's work for you; the human trend

Calls for each one to have his share.

Go then and play your part to-day,

And think that you are king of all

Circumstances that come your way.

Before which you must never fall.



LONG LIVE THE IMIGHTY,
LONG LIVE THE KING,

RASTAFARI HAILE I SELASSIE I

Irituality or spirituality,we all know it is a network linking us to the Almighty,the Most High of Creation.And it is different to the set of rules laid down by men by thier hands,But some people today refuse the spirituality which dwell in us and accept man made Religions which is a set of rules.But most people still called spirituality religion for some reason.But a man with out religion or spirituality is like a body without a soul,Haile I Selahssie I.Love is our Religion a message for those of you who think rasta is a cult,it is not a cult neither,its and natural pure way of life filled with love,Spirituality is our way of life the law of liberty.The lord Jah Rastafari teach us the way how to live in this world created with out hands.We all dwell in the Temple that is made without hands,the human body is the temple of jah our Savior.One Love me Kindreads!
