Greetings Bantu Kelanie...

I am quoting "JAH is King Haile Selassie I for some. Intuitive Rastas recognize COSMIC ENEGRY as JAH, all the complex phenomenas are appealing to them, spiritual and possible"....

I am not quite sure..and this is why I am requesting clarification...is this statement meant to say if one sites H.I.M. one is not an intuitive RASTA....and that complex penomenas are not appealing spiritual and possible..

I am getting a little confused as these concepts of RASTA,and RASTAFARIAN,and RASTAFARI and RAS TAFARI and now intuitive RASTA...are very new to myself...I am however beginning to distiguish one from the other...which I will call progress...

We use the term Rasta to describe one with wisdom or seeker of wisdom derived from knowledge of one's self, rooted in all humanity and that is linked to the cosmos.

Rastafari, Rastafarians, Ras Tafari persons, synonymously those whose theology is rooted in Judeo-Christian scriptures, describe a category of individuals who claim exclusive possession of god. Some see the connectedness to Africa with Emperor Haile Selaisse I as deity.

Aside from these simple explanations, intuitive Rastas are unable to take seriously the idea of an anthropological God embodied in an apocalyptic Messiah. By intuitive Rastas I mean individuals with ANALYTICAL thinking embodied in the Laws of the Universe. As Rastas, our reverential, caring and celebratory approach to JAH focuses on Nature rather than on the apocalyptic God.

For us Rastas, JAH is Nature, Nature is sacred, JAH is the essence in the cosmos!
