Greetings
To I an I rasta is not something I got into..rasta is something that got into me.... I an I was born as a rasta and grow to find Iself without changing who I an I was deep inside....I an I just get to let out the inside as a rastafari...rastafari is not a fashion or an in thing...If the I is meant to be RAS the power of JAH will overcome the I through reasonings on the board and the I will be reborn and discover the I's true self..But he who have eyes to see will see and he who have ears to hear will hear
Bless

Bless,
I believe the study of knowldege and search for truth of creation of mankind and the universe is what led me to the path of Inity. How can one deny such blatant fact and deception throughout our time. Mostly the ones who live blind and are not open minded are the ones binded by religion, a terrible and wonderful thing. I believe if one gets his assortment of bibles and the proper history knowledge of our evolution of conciousness and realizes the teachings of ones such as Jesus the Christ, Socrates, H.I.M Selassie and many other Jehovas they will see the path of Rasta as the enlightened path of GOODWILL toward mankind.

InI think I have been a Rasta from the beginning of I life. The beliefs of it were things I had held true throughout, I just needed to grow and find that they were called Rastafarian. InI was born a Christian, but there were always certain disagreements InI had with Christianity as it is preached today. True Christianity is RASTFARI!

i believe one could be "christine path followers" like jesus originally intended, but to be a christian is secluding yourself to one religion. Rastafari is not a religion but a path to a better rightous lifestyle that can bring you closer to Jah. Bless

Rastafari is not a religion, but a spiritual way-of-life. Some rastafarians don't believe in H.I.M Selassie's divinity, but put faith in his teaching and in Jesus, I've seen it countless times. I personally study the Holy Qu,ran, and the Holy Bible, and I have never found a contradiction between the two. The problem comes, when I approach either books with a preconceived notion, that they have opposing messages. The most shocking part for me was when, I read about Jesus in the Qu,ran (some people who aren't familar with the Qu,ran is probably saying: "Jesus? In the Koran? Get Outta Here!", YES Jesus, Yeshua himself. Here's the real shocker, though, not only is Jesus in the Qu,ran, he is the most quoted prophet in the Qu,ran. This is why rasta denounce religion, religion keeps the mind and soul imprisoned and isolated from knowledge, wisdom, truths and rights, that is foreign to that religion. Every prophet that ever rose paid homage to those that came before. It's only the followers who feel the need to discriminate. P.S. You must remember that religion is a man-made thing. The church today deal in cultic practices and call it religious rituals Rasta denounce religion, JAH is the most highPEACE!

Greetings 1080man I can't recall ever having wanted to be Rasta. As far back as I can think of, I've been living, feeling and thinking more or less as I am now. I came to a point a while back, when for whatever reason, I began to learn more of Rastafari, (funny, that I didn't know much, having grown up in a place which has Rastas left, right and centre...) and came to the realisation that I way was a Rasta way. Which is nice, because for a long while I'd been wondering when I was going to come across other people walking the same road....Some months later, for the second time in I life, I saw another person in spirit form, and this time it was a spirit who bore great resemblence to H.I.M. . Now maybe it was H.I.M., or maybe his doppelganger, either way, from that point on, I've felt that I'm on a good path and that path I am on is a path of Rasta. Now I take great comfort from knowing there are so many others on the same path, it's not a lonely path at all, there's nuff I's. Thank JahJah.
peace

Seen Freeformras
These are the kind of connection with the KING most wont overstand unless they experience it for themselves... The KING has been calling I an I from birth....I an I have always been drawn to nature,animals and rastafari and didnt know why...I an I would find Iself defending rasta when anyone said anything bad even though I was never ras at those times....I an I finally answered the call and then H.I.M reviel himself to I before I an I even knew much about the Kingg and that caused me to research on the one that called I..when I an I started to research it was like almost everything I an I saw I an I already knew and didnt overstand how I an i knew these things when I an I never read or heard them from anyone...thats why I an I dont argue about the KING even when people discredit the bible and say its because of the Bible why I an I beleive in the KING because I an I got connected with the KING before I an I even knew the Bible...I an I dont even have to use the bible to justify the divinity of the KING
Bless

Blessed Mirat...When JAH calls ones that were once christians or grew up in a christian way its sometimes easier for them to gain knowledge as they are already familiar with the bible and can see its relationship with rasta
