This site is hilarious to me. If my Kingman EVER knew I was even diginifying these things with response, he would be VEX! But while eating my lunch at my desk at work... I can't resist. LOL
Alright then... More Love & Gratitude for I guidance & itection of Empress Menen I Selassie I... Mother love is REAL! Selah.
Still Looking, I see where the I is coming from on this thread of reasoning. The reason everyone is getting vex with the I for asking if most of the people on this site are white is cos the answer is yes. It must be! Most of the people engaging in discussion forums on the internet relating for Fari livity are either white RasTa or African RasTa who are professionals and hence have sustained access to the internet. The most of our African RasTa community don't have regular access to the internet, mostly because the work InI do in the majority means no pc at desk - type thing. And we know the numbers of InI who managed to make it to "professional", so the majority of internet RasTa are white.
I've had this conversation before... and I have no fundamental issue with white RasTa, as I said in a previous post the truth stands alone, it is for InI to choose to stand beside it. So black, white, whatever... can choose the truth by which to stand. InI know it is the African God & King of I anciency that guards the essential truth of Iration. Selah. It is not a race thing at all.
The problem is that as much as African people at the four wings have felt the fury of vile oppression, white people have had the misfortune of having to intrinsically support a system that oppresses African people, while providing the West with the excesses of comfort wo which they have grown accustomed. This has bred a mental predisposition of white supremacy and white privelege that many white RasTa (many, not all) are reluctant to tangibly identify and genuinely burn out.
There are many white RasTa who overstand that their journey to truth is very different from InI African who need ancient reawakening of natural melanin-related spiritual essence... and those white RasTa are Fari for real. They embark on their journey and any opportunity to learn about their legacy and blaze it from within is taken. I love that, and those are the steps towards Iniversal healing.
On the other hand, there are white people who love the Fari vibes, the music, the livity, the community, the ilamental irits, etc, etc... so they have a genuine intention to connect with RasTafari, but when it comes down to it they, in fact, just start to apply white privilege mentality to the RasTafari discourse (often without even knowing it). So, it turns into a situation where anything too "black" about I-Fari meditations is refuted. That is the reason why when InI wish to express non-compromise warrior rhetoric into our reasonings (because I-Africans are still not done defending it), they choose to shoot it down with "one love" passwords.
The ila thing is that they can only do that within their own congregations, and on the internet.
I overstand what the I is reaching out about on this topic.
Reasoning is better than preaching, that's true. So... I think if the I is still looking... the I might find somethings that ring true to the I resonance if you search out the Principles and Order of Boboshanti House. InI don't deal with no michaelangelo depiction of Jesus. In fact, InI do not deal with no Jesus doctrine at all. Jesus is a Latin name, I-womban know not who he is. The message and story of the CHRIST which was pirated from the walls of Ancient African temples talks of the Christ livity, the Christ character, upheld and affected by High Priests who took vows and lived out principles of Christliness and ruled theocratically in line with the natural laws of JAH. (See Melchezidek, King of Salem).
I-womban know that Christ is a covenant, Christ is a heartical vow. There are those special ones who make a vow and a covenant, then are so Good and righteous that it manifests in their fullness... and with the perfect timing and guidance of the mystic, InI thus receive a messenger, a leader, a teacher, a High Priest to lead us towards the Ancient African heart of Christ... this is InI Father Moses, Black Christ, a High Priest after the order of Melchezidek, Holy Prince Emmanuel I 7th Adoniai God.
I'm just saying that, seeing as there are so much Authority Ras on this website, why none of them will see the name you are using "Still Looking" and not tell you about something that the I can search fi find.
Through an ordered and principled ancient African livity, (hence the Moses reference) Prince Emmanuel cleans our ivels and our irits and purge InI, free InI African from out of all bondage, that InI may bring forth the Spiritual nature of our African selves. Doing so, he points InI to Honourable Prophet John Marcus Mosiah Garvey... and he tells us the reality and practicalities of our journey in these times, that InI must educate ourselves, finance ourselves, be self sufficient Africans again, and of course Repatriate for the betterment of our people and our nation. And of course we know that Honourable Marcus I, dignified and virtuous statesman, was the prelude to the kiss... the crowning of the African God & Ithiopian King fulfilling prophecy and history to date.
The life, the words, the works of Haile I Selassie I first and his iternally virtuous Empress speak of his plan of action for I-African people. As much as his message is Iniversal, it cannot be gotten away from that the Iniversal co-operation for the reinstatement of the African nation is in the spiritual interests of all Creation. It was always clear that Selassie's priority was to Africa. He was the personal mentor of Kwame Nkrumah, Africa's first sovereign president to implement a successful plan for the extraordinary upliftment out of bondage and exploitation to marvellous and successful black self determination, self sustainance... and of course as the black star on their national flag indicates, Ghana has been a beacon of repatriational light for InI at the Four Wings for decades now. He held a secret conference of African leaders & delegates and called them the Nyabinghi!! So, InI need not ask about if Selassie I dead... EARTHQUAKE & THUNDA FIYAH.
Selassie I lives!
Anyway, a lot of folks on here probably resonate with a Fari version that is justified within Roman imperial context. And like the I, I find it puzzling because Jesus was killed by the Romans. Then the Romans compiled the book to support the notion that essentially the doctrine is constructed upon the idea that the "Christ" was crucified by the Romans... and faith is dependant on believing in the ressurection. Well, InI cannot cheat fleshical death as much as InI cannot cheat fleshical life. So, that story is too corrupt for me now.
The God of Africa has reigned in Ethiopia since before even Abraham... so like the I, the Jesus thing is supplementary knowledge for we.
I hope everyone does not go mad on here now... I see how unuh lot stay already. I am agreeing with Still Looking in this instance... cos I think RasTa heart should be finished with the Roman Jesus thing by now.
InI have our own prophets, priests and King now, and we don't need no sanction from anybody, talk less of our reputational oppressors.
I think if people sight Ras Tafari they gonna have to do it the African way. African liberation must stay at the top of the agenda, without compromise.
Blessed Love and awakening... ever living & ever faithful Holy Emmanuel I... Selassie I... JAH... Ras Tafari.
