Yanting Izes Itinually!!
I&I would Pray de I, InI would like to block a sound on this reasoning. Selassie I lives spoke of hierarchies. This is something I grapple with, as InI have been placed on the lowest eschelon of the global heirachal system. So, in my irits, I never want to see hierarchies and I don’t want to deal with them, yet they are so prevalent inna Rastafari and InI still not being put on InI throne which is seated next to the black man of creation. Rastaman still want to say that the throne only belongs to man and that the man reigns in the Nyabinghi order. And yes indeed, in Afrika, there I stand, put upon the lowest order of the hierarchies that have been built over the centuries. How long shall I keep on sussing out injustices and exploitation? How long shall I keep in state of submission knowing InI am the giver of life? There was a time where InI was honored in fullness and Goddesshood and guess what, it was during that time that the Earth saw much balance, fruitfulness and civilty. It is at this time that WE taught the world to be civilized!!
Is all of these systems that deal with hierarchies wrong? InI don’t have the answer for dat? Is it natural for man to assume power because he has a natural tendency to lead? Or, as the some Eastern Monks come to realize, if you feed the man more of that which he has a tendency towards, then you render not only him off-balance, but that which is in his dominion. So instead I want to know, what is the balance. Can we balance a type of hierarchy and social structure that is inclusive of all InI with our prospective tasks and at the same time have it be egalitarian? It seems that both structure an autonomy make up the balance that can produce forward movement. So where do we go from here? How can Rastafari effectuate that change? How can we assume our ancient position of re-civilizing the world!!
