Organising
and Centralising Rastafari From the Ground Upward:
A Practical and Strategic Proposal
The luminaries have illuminated.
Blessed are I and I that walk in their
illuminations. Ises to the Most Luminous High, Haile Selassie I and
Empress Menen I.
Liberation and preservation of a people’s
collective identity, sovereignty, rights and livity are dependent on
proper and secure organisation. The Honourable Marcus Garvey taught I
and I that disorganisation is the weapon used against an unfortunate
people and that an organised nation is a strong nation. Haile Selassie I
instructed I and I to organise and centralise. Leonard Howell
demonstrated the potential of communal organisation. Marcus Garvey
showed I and I the power and the value of mass organisation. The
Rastafari Movement at present is poised to evolve the most permanent
centralised mass organisation in the history of I and I people’s
struggle. All the necessary ingredients exist to materialise this
greatness. They only need to be administratively formalised.
Nyahbinghi Coordinating Mechanism
Marcus Garvey informed I and I that it
is only through science and religion I and I will be able to defeat the
evil designs of modern materialism. The Nyahbinghi exists as I and I
churchically religious vibrational bond and foundation. All Rastafari
groups and institutions, with minor exceptions, exist and
congregationally operate on the Nyahbinghi psych-spiritual vibrations.
This is a fundamental commonality that I and I need to enhance. I and I
need to convene a global Nyahbinghi conference mandated to respond
effectively to I and I modern realities.
This Issembly is to standardise and
effectuate a global Nyahbinghi coordinating mechanism. This involves
National Administrative Councils, Councils of Elders, High
Priests/Priestesses, International High Priests/Priestesses and Regional
and International Coordinators with their respective mandates.
National Inity Councils
All national communities must evolve a
National Inity Council with representative and coordinating mandates.
Regional Organisations
Already the Caribbean Region has the
Caribbean Rastafari Organisation (CRO). I suggest that I and I Inite
with the continental consolidating spirit and terminologies and evolve
the CRO into the Caribbean Rastafari Union (CRU). The same is in order
for North, Central and South America and Africa. The Regional Union is
to be the representative and coordinating forum of the National Inity
Councils.
Global Rastafari Union
With the Global Rastafari Union being a
consultative, representative and negotiating instrument based in Africa
, I and I will I-joy a fully functional networking that will involve the
totality of I and I Nation.
I and I need to read the signs of the
time. Haile I has spoken. The North has given up and now the South
cannot hold back. Send my sons and daughters from afar and my children
from the ends of the earth. I and I Hispanic family of the South is
rising to the realms of Rastafari liberty, dignity, sovereignty and
fraternity. The necessary level of global Rastafari Union as suggested
and is being widely advocated is a matter of critical urgency to be
devotedly acted on. I and I rising Sisters and Brothers need I and I
strength so that the Ingels can give I more strength. Again I emphasise
the Nyahbinghi factor because some Ingels are overlooking the fact that
Nyahbinghi represents I and I ancestral legitimacy and that Nyahbinghi
is the root of dreadlocks Rastafarinity. Nyahbinghi is the spiritual
pulse of I and I cultural livity. Despite ritualistic and observational
differences, the Nyahbinghi vibration is the heartbeat of the global
Rastafari family. May I and I proceed to the path of consolidation for
the security and the prosperity of I and I Nation and creation.
RasTafari Love and Mercy be with I and
I everytime.
I give thanks.
Ras Iration I
