InI started the rasta cult on NS last year to educate and spread the love of what we believe in.
if you have such a interest in joining or learning about some wisdom and spirituality send me a message and ill try and add you.

anyone looking for spirituality talk as well, we would love your postings on the cult as well. ANYONE
is welcome. except if you are that guy who smokes weed and therefore think you are a ras. no one likes that, nuff said.

again, only if the I's are serious. theres no room for negativity.

PEACE and BLESSINGS

hahah. let them come.

If you put truth and righteousness at the core of how you will spend your life, you will be mocked for it.  Especially if you live and regularly spend time with modern people.  But you still have to give thanks - whats worse, being aimless and storm-tossed or being mocked?

I have no problem being mocked. because i have something they could NEVER understand =]

step forward

I wish I could label you a hipster for this shit, but fortunately, this nonsense isn't considered hip.

the only issue with rastafari is you kinda have to be black... its founded on black pride virtues. theyre really not as chill as theyre made out to be.

from wikipedia:

Afrocentrism is another central facet of the Rastafarian ethos. They teach that Africa, in particular Ethiopia, is where Zion, or paradise, shall be created. As such Rastafari orients itself around African culture.

Rastafari holds that evil society, or "Babylon" has always been white-dominated, and has committed such acts of aggression against the African people as the Atlantic slave trade. Despite this Afrocentrism and focus on people of the black race, members of other races, including whites, are found and accepted by Blacks among the movement, for most believe Rasta is for all people.

i was just going to say...as much as i like to say that anyone can choose any religion, its kind of hard to be Rasta if you aren't black. It doesnt make much sense to worship Haile Selassie and believe that you are going to Zion when you die, which is in Africa, if you are not of African descent.

i agree that the teachings and values of Rastafari can be interesting though
