Re: Bobo or Nyabinghi

Bobo is de only group within InI chanting daily together in ritual Inity at dawn, dusk and the other sacred Iwahs. Without that, Rasta would become a carnal philosophy. Confusion is created by not knowing that in all rootical cultures, it has been declared that one must have a living teacher. So, the Bobo believe in a living teacher. Ain't nutten' strange about that. And if the living teacher shows a one the path to the Almighty inside, then, for all practical purposes, that teacher IS GOD to the student. Ain't nutten strange about that at all, either. From Buddha to Amadou Bamba to Rumi, Tabriz and the head gurus of all the orders of dreadlock sadhus in India and Bahatawi in Itopya, this is so. Man just gettin' caught up in form.

I does remember times gone when Nyabhingi would not share chalice with a fish-eating Idren, or a vegetarian Idren who drink Guinness. Sharing a chalwa with a Twelve Tribes was almost unspeakable, for the Twelve Tribes live by "It matters not what goeth into the mouth of man, but that which cometh out", the philosophy of Paul which he used to defend himself for partaking of blood with Gentiles. What many of InI don't know is that the leader of the group Paul was defending himself against was JAMES, THE BROTHER OF JESUS, A VEGETARIAN AND LIFELONG NAZARITE, who at the instigation of Paul, would be stoned to death at age 98.(Read book, James, the Brother of Jesus)

The fact that most Bhingi, Bobo or unaffiliated Rasta don't know about James, they know on a inner level, that something about this Paulism thing about it don't matter what go inna yu mouth being brought into Rastafari in the form of the Twelve Tribes and Gadman, JUST DON'T FEEL RIGHT.
