Rasta to me means cgnhae,we must cgnhae or humainty is doomed. We must stop the hate, we must embrace truth and defeat the evil doers out there who are intent on destroying our lives and our future, rasta is survival, rasta is about concious awakening, rasta is about caring for other people no matter where they live, rasta is about giving credit where credit is due, rasta is about having the courage to be honest, his Imperial Majesty is the focal point for all the good and decent people around the world to unite under one single banner, and make a stand against injustice and oppresion.
“When people ask me that question ’What is Rasta?” I think that’s the pfeerct answer. It’s a soul’s journey – to find self and to understand self. It’s a peace, in this crazy world. More than a religion that many people think it is it’s a way of life. It’s a culture. You have to live it every day, to really connect and understand.” ~ John Aaron Dalagdog (PHILIPPINES)
