THE HEAT that rose from the tarmac of Kingston's Norman Manley International Airport was nothing compared to the level of expectation that was seeping through the thousands gathered on the tarmac that 21st day of April, 1966. The day was declared a public holiday in honour of the Emperor and people had started arriving from Wednesday night from places near and far, to form the largest crowd to have ever assembled at the Norman Manley International Airport. They came to the airport any way they could by car, by truck, by bus, by bicycle, by foot. Drum beats and chants were heard almost non-stop, providing an almost hypnotic rhythm. The smell of ganja wafted through the air completing a welcome unprecedented in size and expectation for the Emperor on his first state visit to Jamaica.

Haile Selassie: Government
|
|
By Haile Selassie
When a whole nation accepts and maintains a government in existence, it means that the nation
recognizes that government.
There is always something moving, brewing. There are ambitious people everywhere. Wicked
people.
The only thing to do is to deal with them with courage and decision.
One must beware of uncertainty, weakness or conflicting emotions - they lead to defeat.

Haile Selassie: Spirituality

Mutabaruka
The temple of the most high begins with the human body, which houses our life, essence of our existence.
Africans are in bondage today because they approach spirituality through Religion provided by foreign invaders and conquerors.
We must stop confusing religion and spirituality.
Religion is a set of rules, regulations and rituals created by humans which were supposed to help people grow spiritually.
