The Rastafari and the Hindu Yogi By Baba Kali


~ The first announcer of Ras tafari to the land of Jamaica was named Leonard Howell who was heavily influenced by his Hindu comrades; so much so he eventually changed his name to Ganguru MahaRaja, which loosely translates to "Kings of Kings" (maha=great, raja=king). He seen HIM HSI as a Divine incarnate just as the hindu sees certain ones as Avatars, incarnations of Krisna shiva etc. in this respect HIM was not originally worshiped as a Sky God, but as a incarnation of the infinite One Divine.

~Ras tafarians were influenced not only from Africa to grow the locks, but also the Sadhu Yogi who lived in Jamaica having been brought there by the British as slaves, or indentured servents as they were called in the 18th cent. The locks are called Jatah to the Yogi and are worn as a symbol of renunciation from wordly concerns and desires. Yes, the Africans worked in the cane fields alongside their Indian brothers and sisters from early times and easily exchanged their ideas and customs due to the similarities in voudou and hindu practice.



~The Ras tafarian smokes "Kali," or "ganjah" which are Hindi names for Cannabis. Kali is the feminine aspect of the Divine and is the dispeller of ego. Ganjah is the name for the sacred river, Ganga in India. Canabis is smoked from the "Cutchie," or "chalawah" (Chala is from Jala meanings water, hence water-pipe). The Ras tafarian will say "Jah!" when smoking whilst the Hindi may say "Jai!" both sound meansing praises to the divine.

~Both the Ras Tafarian and the Yogi seek to renounce the ways of the world (Babylon). The ras tafarian began in the "Bush", in the hills away from shit-ciety. Both schools know the truth of re-incarnation, re-birth, the cycles of Life. Both schools eat Ital, or naturally, many if not most are vegan, or vegetarians.

~ Both schools (at least originally) taught and teach that "god is man, man is god" and here again I remind them that HIM HSI was never orignally seen as some sky god that would jump out and save them. Both teach that heaven and hell are states of the higher and lower mind respectively, and that Zion (Bliss, heaven) is here now on earth. Both shcools see each and every being as a part of the Divinity known by infinite names.



~ In the Yogi mind, word sound power too is the Trinity from which the whole of creation began. A U M is the trinity and is known to be the cosmik vibration that both creates and destroys the phenomenal illusionary world. A U M is the Heart Beat, the first sound ever heard when I was in Her bless-ed Womb. Likewise, the Ras tafarian beats three drums, kette funde, bass, and keeps the heart beat as "time", creating a mystikal, hypnotizing, trance-like atmosphere where the I in the I is seen with the One Eye, the Third Eye. Ras Tafarians call the Third eye the "Far I" and is the focus of meditaion and contemplation.


These are the substratum from which we may easily draw parallels between the two paths to the Self, which is the goal of all paths.

This sistren n Idren, is the (well some of the) Truth of Rastafari that I resonate with in I heart of hearts,
having been brought up centred by nature and eastern (primarily Indian and Tibet, although I have learned that Africa is the Origin) spiritual Troditional lifestyes and Iyah knowledge and then rising in LOVE with a Rootical reggae Man of Native American Ascent, I find I Spiritual truth in these teachments....Yes I see Jah light and its soooooo bright ,it fills Jah world and ivery world!!!!!!
This wave of conscious awareness is of epic and tidal proportians and there is no stopping it This I know in surety!!!!
sure tings get ruff and one's gonna find ones need to hold for dear life at times, other times its gentle rocking an being lulled n soothed by the sounds of water, n sweet back beats n artical bhingi riddims, waves ebbing n flowing.....
In I n I book of life ,conscious livity is the surest ticket for quality and longevity of life,and while, at least some time, it seems one's like a salmon, swimming up stream against the current of mainstream (the road is narrow), in the long run (and I don't mean to sound egotrippical here) I feel we are just miles ahead of de masses (western masses that is,many troditional people just seem to have alot of wisdom of being that's hasn't been lost,or misplaced but I could be just glorifying people here)..anyone whos staying connected to the inexplicable Presence, howeva one wants to define it, the wellbeing n sense of harmony, power and trust in the unfolding of a higher plan..the sense of Iternal justice, that really Jah/God/love/wisdom/Allah, whateva one names the unnamable, is in charge and knows what its doing, even when we don't, that "no-mind" isa space that we can tap into that harmony and peace of being that refreshes and recharges..that dislodges the ego-mind and all its worries and CONcerns and provides solutions and a higher/Iyah Ispective that leads to problems dissolving or being bareable, that helps us endure...Yes life on the "edge" is quite majical and exciting, not grasping at material solutions too quickly, as material comes quite slowly for we, still we have plenty yoot and hills and a home that provided sanctuary from the babylon outside (although babylon still tries to infiltrate) our Love and faith provides a sheild of Itection that none of SUSciety can penetrate..really JahLIGHT is REALITY and "babylon" even this plane of suffering and death is like a shadow that dissolves when JAHLIGHT shines on it...
As for militancy, I n I do itinue to fight for our rights,particularly the rights of those who have been the most ignored, denied and abused,
musically and lyrically, and I n I will not stop, persuing each and everyones rights to have their rights and needs upheld and met
I n I music is a reflection of this, I souls Iviction n livication to this end
Blessings and Iternal LOVE
Sistah Nyah I
