RASTAFARI PIONEERS

NEW PIECE “Rastafari Pioneers”

In the last few Strongs, many of us prepare for the new year, and the celebrations for His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile Selassie First. It is a time of inner and outer travel often. In the last few Strongs, InI have reflecting on the Pioneers of Rastafari, those who led the way, and the impact they had and have. I feel that our collective experience cannot be fully drawn or painted, nor all the people represented, this is a part of a collective story and records of those who we know, there are those many of us don’t or will learn about more. The piece is to encourage ones to know more, to learn about the foundations of the Rastafari Movement. Some of these men we met, some taught us or our elders, and they are family to many as well. In full respect and reverence, this piece salutes the Fathers who gave their lives so we can know Rastafari as King, and Ourselves as a movement. Many of these men met the King of Kings, some sent by H.I.M., all of them emanated His Love.
In a time where many talk about disunity, let us project our unity and love for the many Houses of Rastafari, the growth and changes, the natural progressions that make up our Fathers Mansion. In a ministry of Reconciliation, May we reconcile with the most important of topics, including Love amongst bredren and sistren, where we come from, and where are we going.
This piece is livicated to all the Rastamen and Rastawomen that came so we can be here this day, the ones that have moved forward yet Itinue to nurture the Souls of Men and Women today.
Jah Willing, I will make a piece to show some of the Mighty Empresses that have given their lives to the people and movement, as well as those who were closest around the Emperor, such as Ras Kassa, and the Pankhurst family.
These are Names of those in the Joyting, ” Rastafari Pioneers”, Emperor Haile Selassie First, Hon. Vaughn Benjamin, Rt. Hon. Bob Nesta Marley, Sam Brown, Sir William Arthur Lewis, Ras Daniel Heartman, Mortimo Planno, Pa Shanti, Rt. Hon. Prince Charles Edwards Emmanuel the 7th, Bongo Rocky, Douglas R.A. Mack, Abuna Yesehaq, Prophet Gad, Shepard Robert Athlyi Rogers, Rt Hon. Marcus Mossiah Garvey, Father Joseph Hibbert, Dr. Malaku E. Bayen, Hon. Leonard The Gong Howell.
Give thanks and praise for the bringers, the ones that stood up and spoke out for the benefit of all InI’s. Special thanks to Ras Flako. To all those who stood for decolonization, freedom, redemption, repatriation, liberation and reparations, salvation, Africa, Ancientcy and self determination, and most of all for Our God and King, The Conquering Lion of Judah. Jah Rastafari. Itinual Praise, for the mercies and powers given to the Saints, Warriors and Priests, and the Loving Kindness shown by the Most High Egziabeher to and thru us all. In the Name of the Trinity, Jah Father, Jah the Son, Jah the Holy Spirit, One Jah. Amen.

" SonLight Living Room "

Sizzla Kalonji / Ras Elijah Tafari Art Series. First Five!

First and foremost InI Give thanks that the Most High has given us the blessing to link and complete these works. InI give thanks for the love shown and the kindness and teachings of the entire Island of Jamaica. Most High Jah Rastafari be Praised in a Mighty Sound!

" A shared Vision "

” A Shared Vision “

The Journey and getting to know Miguel Collins started creatively, through art. When one looks at his eyes, you can almost hear the multiple ideas and thoughts, streaming through as he listens and observes silently. Sizzla pulsates creativity, and vision. The Vision is Collective Praise, Honor and Respect to All Nations in abidance of The Word of His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile Selassie First.
 This piece was created in 2022 before we went to Jamaica at Mr. Miguel Collin’s Invitation. Little did I know all the other nations we were to meet in 3 Tabernacles. Ironically I didn’t put the Mexican Flag in this piece which was and is part of the manifestation with the crew. In this piece all nations are being called to Jamaica, to the Tabernacles, for healing, grounding and education. All of which we found  and more when we arrived. The True Tabernacle, The Holy of Holies is in Jah, Haile Selassie the First is the Tabernacle, the Temple and the Chapel. To go into HIM is to go into Jah…, what was, is and forever will be. There are 13 Ark’s or vessels in the piece, plus HIM.
This was the beginning, and there are many joy-tings ( paintings) that the Rt. Hon Miguel Collins has encouraged, come up with and put ideas into. We look forward to sharing this series starting with five, plus the new album cover ” Rise Up” and a collective vision of Unity and Rastafari in this time. Jamaica is a Holy Place, chosen by Jah. Blessed are those who are able to see this powerful island and people. Big Up Judgement Yard!

 

"MIGUEL N CHAZ"

“MIGUEL N CHAZ”

It was evening, and there was a diversity of people in Judgement yard. I was taken back by a child that was watching Miguel and Chaz together drumming and on the guitar, with Dre-Z Melodi peering in back. All those around can see when music is a central point of being, a perfect place. Everyone seemed to be in a perfect place, and so it seemed perfect to do some sketches and take some photos and be able to reflect and meditate on it. I like the sketch with a little ink, it seemed to capture the ease and casualness of being in harmony.  Click here for a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/miguel-and-chaz/

 

"RT. HON. MIGUEL COLLINS "

“RT. HON. MIGUEL COLLINS “

As InI got to know Miguel and not just go by the music, thru livity and experience, I also began to try and figure out how to paint him in a way that would look like him. Everyone has a particular energy, and as an artist you want to find that flow, and aura. No face is the same, and it takes time to be able to encapsulate a feeling or image of a person. What an artist doesn’t want to do is make the image upsetting or inaccurate, so this was a study of his face. It seemed important in this piece to have his turban because of the importance of faith and order that is a militant part of the Rt. Hon. Miguel Collin’s personality.  click here for a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/rt-hon-miguel-collins/
" SonLight Living Room "

” SonLight Living Room “

One of the joys was to do a mural in Sizzla’s Living Room at his compound in Judgement Yard. Lots of experiences on the stairs and with his nephew who helped do some of the painting too. It was a piece of Africa with a tear where the Nile River is on the face of a lion. The energy of the living room and the patio had a certain radiance when the sun hit. The color and hours spent watching the gradual changes made it worthy to try and recreate. I can feel the morning, and the excitement of the day, amongst the children of Jah.  Click here to get a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/sonlight-in-the-living-room/

" Miguel's guitar "

” Miguel’s guitar “

Using a different palette and technique to try and add a uniqueness to Jamaica air, trees and earth, this piece is a tribute to Miguel’s love of things to come and traditions of old. From the Tabernacle, which is not heavily decorated to the contrast of the torn jeans and perfect tie and shirt, told a story of a work and person in progress. A place where the spirit and Foundation can sing itself into any place Jah sees fit. A place where the man is there for the world to see rather than hidden in the Tabernacle.  click to get a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/miguels-guitar/

SIZZLA'S "RISE UP!"

SIZZLA’S “RISE UP!”

Album cover of the Grammy nominated reggae artist Sizzla Kalonji. In this piece Sizzla described exactly what he wanted in detail. The appearance to make it look like it was done quickly was  part of the intention. In true art, the flow and vibe is more important than making it photographic. The raw and aggressive lines, and the clear message carries an impact the sublime does not. It is meant to hit the viewer. This included the letters, which are all hand done. He wanted it to feel Rastafari, and also show real street letters that ones could read and are true to form. Something we could see on a wall and smile. I was very pleased listening to the album and that the art and the album also flowed, it was a work of art in perfect balance, clear and upfull. Raspect.

This is the first look at an ongoing series of creative ideas from a musical legend and genius, Rt. Hon. Miguel Collins, aka Sizzla Kalonji, one that will take the viewer into different visions and prayers, as well as human emotions that we all can relate too. I cannot not thank him enough for the warm invitation that touched the hearts of InI, Priest Abba, Dre-Z Melodi and Ras Gilbert profoundly. It is a joy to share the experience artistically at this time. Many wonderful and powerful ideas were and are being shared. More to come. Give thanks for viewing and supporting Rastafari Culture.
In His Mercy and Truth,
Most High Almighty God, Holy Emmauel I, King Selassie I, Jah Rastafari.
One Perfect Love.
Ras Elijah Tafari

Akae Beka RIGHTEOUS SYNERGY. In-depth:the message, music and art.

Greetings in the Name of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I, Jah Rastafari. Our King and Creator for whom we owe everything. For His Love is Everlasting and endures forever.

It is with a full heart we are proud to announce to the release of Akae Beka’s new album Righteous Synergy produced by Fifth Son Records. The listener will be moved and reminded of the memory within that we keep alive and takes us back millennia’s.  Akae Beka brings a heavy message that brings the meditations to approach the task of redemption. His melodies carry the truth and message that is sensitive and focused. The deliberations into every note, and the accompaniment of the instruments make this work a musical and a lyrical gem.

Akae Beka Righteous Synergy album cover.

Akae Beka Righteous Synergy album cover.

The Cover represents a number of topics, and to share a few, is the space in which His Imperial Majesty stands. The fountain are His Words that Bubble up… this bubble up is both in the region of being underwater and in the heavens of space. Within that dynamic is the birth of HIM on the rising of Sirius ( July 23rd ) and the day that countless cultures hold in reverence. What is called the “Dog Star” Sirius star system is mapped out above His Crown. He and the Heavens align with where Ethiopia and Native tribes link with the Leo Constellation and Sirius Rising in many cultures including the natives in Chaco Canyon, NM.  The King of Kings is both a reflection of that which is seen and unseen. He holds the World in His Hand as She holds the moon in Her on Earth. Reflecting the sun that He moves by His Fingers. Bringing forth children of the son.  Whaling out..Reflecting on the book of Ester, “She became a Queen” on this album, touches on the plight of being a refugee, and how the fate of a people lay in her ability to accept the call from Jah that would jeopardize her safety. Accepting the tides of what will be.

This act of faith, travels, in the joy-ting and on the album. The song, ” Manger ” takes us up to the pyramids as a geographic location, in order to know that the basket, representing the manger is not at its destination. That it is going further north east toward the North Star. The reason a basket was used is because like a turtle it carries memory and still it was the same grass that Christ had to flee too, in a very similar situation, where from birth the government that wanted to kill him. That the reverberations of the God Man on a holy mission, is like the grass laid down in a manger for us and Christ to rest in.

” Covenant Ark ” is represented by making a clear unity of different races by the  4 women with children, representing the four corners. Above the woman on bottom left are the priests carrying the Ark of Covenant.  There are also Native Americans standing together on the bottom right on the cliff above the women who are looking to the Ethiopian Emperor. Displaying Heart, rather than a John Crow heart, the lowest form of humanity .

At one point, it was thought we may release the tune, ” Do my best ” as a single. In that moment, I was asked to make a piece of art in 2 days as a single cover. It was decided it would be best to not release the single, and the piece went on the inside of the album. You can listen to “Do my Best” right here, and that will help ones understand this piece more throughly…“Do My Best” Akae Beka Righteous Synergy.

Righteousynergyinsidecover

The album for many reasons had the feeling of the deep in it, it has joy and sorrow, looking at life as a people, as a collective. The energy of be renewed and rebirth, through the water, of the Holy Spirit, brings the immensity of being in this experience by invoking the ocean. Our connection to the creatures of this planet is a link to Jah, from the smallest to the biggest. As well as the bones and souls of our ancestors and that be reborn again. ” The Spirit of Love ” takes us there. As Akae Beka touches on how we take for granted the toil and pressure that makes us alive. He also speaks on the power of Quietude  to see in contrast to making no sound. It is a powerful and humbling tune that seemed to keep my emotions balanced while we worked on this endeavor.

The back cover was done with oil, and had been released previously. It seemed to feel proper, and have the orderly nature of honoring the works of everyone involved. Honoring The God of Ethiopia, the roots of humanity and the home of the Ark of the Covenant. Igziabeher, Atse Haile Selassie, The Power of the Trinity.

Every song on this album has shaped the art and InI meditations, each song is powerful to the gut. I pray we hear the message and exemplify the care that the Hon. Vaughn Benjamin worked to bring the world. Give thanks for everyone who worked so hard to make this album happen, notably Juaquin Wilson of Fifth Son Records, whom has been diligent and vigilant showing everyone respect along the way.  The following are the credits and the back cover of the vinyl record that will be coming out soon.  You can get more information and order a hard copy album from http://fifthsonrecords.com 2021RecordartAkaeBeka

In a tradition that goes back several decades amongst some reggae artists and DJ’s, is to have a quote from His Imperial Majesty on the CD tray. The following is the full quote as well as a photo of The Root of David, Emperor Haile Selassie First, The King of Kings and Conquering Lion of Judah at His Coronation Nov.2.1930. This photo, though there are many that were taken within the same minutes, has not been published to my knowledge. I acquired them by accident when purchasing a package of old photos taken in Ethiopia from Ebay. It was a small photo, 1×2″ and I will include the original below. I doubt that the film exists, and I wanted to share a little about the photo and how it came to be on the cd tray.

The full quote of His Imperial Majesty’s words to the United Nations in 1970:

“The choice of this age and the very future of our humanity is simple: collective survival, or collective extinction. When the stark choice is thus revealed in all its naked horror, dare we hesitate as to our choice? The choice we know; the means we can rediscover in a reinvigorated and mature United Nations. The will to act, and the courage and determination to implement the decisions we must take, matter. Let this session be the rebirth of the United Nations, and the reaffirmation of our faith in the ever-continuing validity of the purposes and principles for which it was established. A grave responsibility rests upon us: to ensure our own collective survival, and the future of unborn generations.

May the Almighty grant us the wisdom, courage and determination to rise to this supreme challenge and reap a rich reward!”

“ALL HAIL!” HAS BEEN RELEASED! Akae Beka and Ras Teo New Single!

ALL HAIL COVER

ALL HAIL COVER

 

For a single, It packs a punch! ” ALL HAIL ” a collaboration of epic modern roots singers. Akae Beka and Ras Teo bring Roots Reggae once again into the present day with a hard hitting gallop drums, on a stepper roots reggae riddim, produced by Roberto Sanchez.  Presented on 7 inch Vinyl with full color art work on the cover. It also contains a dub version that shows exactly why Roberto Sanchez has been a name in the Reggae world for decades.

To see JahSolidRock Music and Roberto Sanchez join together for the first time, meant the best musicians and production were to come.. It was an amazing journey watching the song being built to honor and respect the message of Akae Beka to the fullness. Ras Teo has been studying and listening to Vaughn Benjamin since 2003, and was a regular at Midnite shows. It was important that this song would reflect the power in the Word and Sound of the singers. The Message, the meaning, and we let that saturate the journey musically. The message was simple, ALL HAIL Emperor Haile Selassie I and be in awe that He Is in the time,  as prophesied,  He is real, true and factual.  Hosanna!

AllHail! credits!

The best musicians came, and Roberto kept putting more and more in. With the back-up vocals sang by Caveman and Monique the harmonies were exquisite, and then great organs from Reuben Telford. Dubby Ambassah, A-Lone Ark Muzik Studios,  who has done percussions for Roberto Sanchez for over 20 years, played the Kiente Drum, and also transcended shortly after recording on this tune. We would like to honor his life and send prayers to the family for Strength and Innerstanding. His Heart Iration pulses in this and many tunes, Give Jah Praise for such an up full one. Jah Bless his Eternal Soul.

This tune was deep and been cared for by time it arrived for InI to listen to. With excitement the piece brought into visualization the way the song makes InI feel. I loved the lyrics so much, I wanted to push artistically and think of new ways to express creatively the message in the song. It was time to bring in a new style, I have never done for an Akae Beka album art, and to use computer coloring. This allowed 250 plus colors to be absorbed accurately, and using realism and comic style, ( Vaughn would say, Street Saga’s) and aerosol art techniques with NYC letters, I attempted to do something new. Pouring out love for the project was an honor, and everyone cared more about doing their best, likewise pouring out love.  ALLHAILBLWHTPOSTERJSR

JahSolidRock Music and Marc Bronner said we need a music video and made it happen. Sherkhan videographer in Jamaica, found a wonderful group of youth, and an insightful elder and went to work. The video shows, the elder, taking the youth out of the city, and teaching them about the Earth and plants, the fish and rocks, and the Water, to the Teachings of His Imperial Majesty and poetry from Vaughn Benjamin, Akae Beka.  I wanted to send a royal salute to the Youth in the video, thank you for being here. We also would love to see more of Vaughn Benjamin’s the Koll Pekude reprinted so more people can have a copy, since it is out of print and circulation.

ALLHAILJERSEYADD

We reasoned on shirts and Ras Teo and InI were left in charge. I linked with a good Ras named Tom Sierra in Miami, who is also a bit of a fashion designer. For years, the printing of shirts has been a difficulty, never full color really or bright enough, and very hard to get the art all over the shirt, ect… Tom brought his skills to the table, and we had something to build on. We had been working together for a while already, so hashing out the details on the shirts was fun. After agreeing to the finale design, it was a joy when was ready to present. In an up full Kings Spirit, Ras Teo wanted his portion of the proceeds to go to an orphanage we work with in Gambia. ( Big Up Ebrima!) So 13 percent will be going their way.

Newest Pieces for July 2020. ” Lion Heights.”

 Give thanks for the Day and the Month, the Lion Frequency is flowing fine. I liked what Buju Banton said on the Breakfast Club a couple Strongs (weeks) ago, paraphrased, big things happen in July and August, it is part of the alignment of all of creation to a cosmic renewal that translates through the powers of the Lion. It is also the time to celebrate the Birth of Emperor Haile Selassie I. July 23rd 1892 Our King was born.

These are a some of the joy-tings and drawings /art that I produced this month. There are more, however I can’t share them yet. Some really hard work was put into art, and the powers in the moment and time were capsulated. We are still in the Lion constellation now, so expect big output  from many Ras and Likeminded Hearts. There are descriptions of where these pieces have gone on the last article. This is the art solo, in which prints will be available. Reserve one by inboxing that you’re interested and I will make sure the first round of prints go to ya. Give thanks and praise for Life! Thank you for checking out the new works, and Full Joy. Rastafari. Power of the Trinity.

At the Alter. Oil.

We have globally entered a new time, and it is one that asks us to be more than we have ever been. The Covid-19 Pandemic challenged the politics and manipulation of words and truth. More of the World realized the power and weaknesses of being a world interlinked and somewhat reliant on each other. The ideas of rightwing governments clearly does contribute to a larger death rate than necessary. The wild conspiracies that have been unleashed fall apart easier because of the need for evidence in which there is none supporting the arguments, examples: that masks are political or that Antifa is behind the social unrest resulting in International Protests.  There is a need to express that though many are manipulating the narrative, Covid-19 is real, and it is important to realize that no matter who started it, it is a global threat and should be taken seriously.  What also needs to be taking seriously is learning opportunity that has been placed on the World to receive in order for humanity to evolve, concerning blatant racism, systematic racism, institutional racism, and environmental racism. All of these will come down to the methods of Empire, both modern and classical. The moment and timing may seem scripted or produced, keep in mind that the media’s job is to script and produce, it’s supposed to appeal to an entertainment quality not a accurate or true narrative. Journalism since its inception has strived, yet rarely achieves a non bias stance. Alright, next subject, True Liberation..

African Tears2:2020

African Tears2:2020

Rastafari as a movement is based in Black Liberation, it could be said that all faiths are based in liberation theology in order to have a liberating appeal and affect. Rastafari as a movement as diverse as we are, that realize that purpose of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I standing against Fascism and Colonialism, was that of a Spiritual war that attacked Foreign domination, resulting in the call for collective security, international morality and human rights. It was the moment when an African Voice would usher in a greater humanity if accepted. We look from an African perspective about ambitions that nations propose, and whether it is based on true unity or exploitation. For the most part, it seems that the methods of capitalism that most nations export is fostered on exploration of the poor and the destruction of the environment. Hence why looking at the treatment of the poor, who will be people of color in majority internationally will lead ones to conclude that attacking racism will conclude in the attacking of the foundation of capitalism and empire as we know it. Mystery Babylon.

There is difference between African American Political Science and Black Liberation, a difference between Political Pains and Prophetic Pain. What is happening within and around the Black Lives Matter movement is addressing the micro in the macro. Slowly the reasoning is expanding to the inherent relationship between Empires and the racism in many forms that exist locally where ever people live. It is not a solely American problem as international protests reveal, it is also not a new problem. When in my hometown of Albuquerque N.M. where a statues of Don Juan Onate were either forcefully removed or the removed by the city, reminded the world that racism was brought over by the Spanish, in which many were themselves were running from the Spanish Inquisition masking their Jewish identity. Sometimes in the case of Onate, the Spanish themselves found Onate to be a monster and told never to return to NM. The State has agreed, that it is backwards. Likewise the actual multi-national corporations that were involved in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade were not of one nation or nationality.  Extraordinary things are happening right now, as English Banks admit their guilt. Many corporations across the Earth as well as Banks are simply accepting that they have profited from Black Suffrage and want to make amends in some way. For the first time reparations are being spoken about in European countries that may result in action. Rastafari as a movement hold that Reparations, and Repatriation is part of the Redemption of Mankind. Being part of the process no matter where ones are from is a work for humanity at large and a Glory to God.

A Song for the Fire.

A Song for the Fire.

Though I am skeptical of ” Allies “, we indeed are a people that are all in the same boat and it is in truth that we will be better off as humanity working together. There is a great hypocrisy in the midst of the ignorance of the general United States population. Not to be condescending, coming from an African perspective, the United States is the Policeman that has had his knee on the neck of most of the world for decades. Except when Trump’s favorite dictators see dissent they use live bullets given by the United States to kill their citizens. The importance of the US citizens to be aware of the military industrial complex and the methods of control used by the super powers of the world, will conclude that there is no desire what so ever, to have accountability in the course of violent domination. Journalist as often seen as the enemy, and no one is exempt from being beaten. This was made very clear by Trumps Administration rejection of The International Criminal Courts investigation into human rights violations by US soldiers in Afghanistan on US soil. Afghan lives don’t matter to this government or the majority of its tax payers. The same Knee of the USA is on the necks of people of Yemen, Palestine, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Somalia, Libyans, Puerto Rico, Philippines, Muslim Chinese, Haitians, Cubans, Venezuela, and many more where their lives are discarded and the US is majority responsible.  These proxy wars, and drone attacks and sanctions, result in mass numbers of innocent men, women and children dying. Europes and the United States Foreign Policy is based on Military strength and has taught other nations that the law is about domination. The illusion of ” Freedom ”  and “Democracy” and Human Rights are a vague concept to most the world, this is because it is usually the US or another foreign power/ corporation that exercises their will on that population to feed that entities needs. They buy warlords, mercenaries, and politicians. This is the status quo, it has been so for thousands of years.

When I see the present day, the realities of how some are in totally different worlds are becoming more apparent. It has caused a great amount of introspection about how this can be addressed in a just way. There is no bad place to start when it comes to proper policing and governance, where ever it starts is positive, and that it is built on is even more crucial. We have heard ideas grow, and even enacted when it comes to defunding the police, ( which doesn’t mean eliminating policing). The history of why there is so many police, the drug war, and racism is all connected and should be looked at internationally as a form of a war on the poor, and also a reflection of their governments reliance of military power over peaceful forms of communication. There is a need for proper peace keepers to be empowered, and this is often where Spiritual meet Political.

As a human race, the fight for true equality and basic respect has only just begun, and no matter where the spring arises, it should be utilized to water as many plants as possible. We cannot forget that the fight for Justice and Rights is one that is rooted in Spiritual thought, and part of why Emperor Haile Selassie I presents so many solutions for the World to actualize. That this is a battle of Empire, a battle of the nature of what makes of the Kingdom of the Most High, or that of Babylon.

For Us as Rastafari, the way you see the Creator reflects about how you see yourself, and how the I see the I self, is how others will also see you. We are a reflection of an African King and Queen, and it is in the Order of the Conquering Lion of Judah, The King of Kings and the Queen of Kings we walk. Ethiopia is a beacon for the world to learn of perspectives and teaching that is not Euro-centric and yet also embracing of others. We see Earth as being both Heaven and Hell, and that this time was given as a challenge to live up to the Words of Emperor Haile Selassie I, that these are the last days of Babylon and that the Root of David, The Lion and the Lamb have already come to prepare us for this day and the days to come. Let the Earth be cleansed, and restored, as well as Our Hearts and Minds.

Coming Together, Staying Together And Emerging Triumphant.

A Statement from the Crown Council of Ethiopia by its President, His Imperial Highness Prince Ermias Sahle-Selassie Haile-Selassie April 7, 2020 / 29th Mägabit 2012 Now, as the world is falling victim to a global and indiscriminate virus and has entered into a new era of economic dislocation, the People of Ethiopia are being challenged as never before.

And yet we shall prevail.

It seems as if the Almighty, in His Infinite Wisdom, is giving one more test to the Ethiopian People, who were emerging from almost a half-century of suffering. We were given a moment to breathe, but only so that we could gain strength to face the coming period.

This is our true test. We believed we had thrown off the shackles of communism and tyranny. We believed we were set to resume the path toward true democracy. Then this new crisis beset us, and all the world.

We had been given the past two years to grasp the gift we were given: the freedom to work together as Ethiopians, as true brothers and sisters, regardless of our region, our language, or our beliefs. Yet many of us still had scores to settle after 44 years of communist “divide and rule” tyranny.

Now we need to set aside the bitterness of those years. We must set them aside. We are one great People, made up of many equal clans and tribes and regions. And we will only survive this latest plague of economic and physical hardship, and start again on the road to prosperity, if we focus on the importance of unity and discard the small things.

We know that we can and will prevail in this new crisis. We can and will conquer not only the temporary scourge of this virus, which has already taken its first Ethiopian lives in Ethiopia itself and in the Diaspora, but we will come together as never before. Those we have lost to this virus, and those we are still yet lose, are indeed martyrs who cause us to pause in humility, to cease our quarreling and come together again; in sorrow for the lost souls and lost time, but united and proud.

Their deaths — and the sacrifices of our healthcare professionals at all levels, and all those who volunteer to help those suffering because of this combined biological and economic virus — will not be in vain if we cease our bickering and rejoice in our ability to make our peoples once again greater than the sum of their parts.

Common ingredients in these medications include microcrystalline cellulose, calcium hydrogen phosphate (anhydrous), croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, titanium dioxide (E171), lactose, triacetin, indigo carmine aluminium lake (E132). This pump is recommended by Dr James Barada, which testifies its effectiveness and worth. 2. The whole team of rehabilitation overnight shipping cialis programmes at sports injury clinics works closely and makes sure that you are able to enjoy all facts of your life. It also provides comprehensive knowledge about cialis on line interpersonal problems that are quite hard to solve and other similar situations. We have been given a great opportunity to set aside our petty differences — indeed, we have been given a wider world view in which our differences as Ethiopians can be celebrated and respected — in order to create a new Ethiopia which shows the world our three and a half millennia of unique strengths.

The Government has wisely attempted to introduce practical measures which will limit the spread of the coronavirus, and to enable our healthcare professionals to show us their skills, valor, and commitment.

But what this period also gives us is time to reflect on the possibility that we can emerge from this period of challenge, restored as a true family of Ethiopians. This must be a time for us to innovate a new Ethiopia. We must strive to grow our own food in abundance, and feed all Ethiopians.

We must seek ways to open our internal trade so that our own food crops and manufactures can be distributed to all corners of Ethiopia. And this must include all the members of our historical family, such as Eritrea and Djibouti.

We must all take heart and joy in the songs and symbols of our neighbors. We must give thanks that no Ethiopian can be set above another. And that no other people can set themselves above Ethiopians, just as we do not wish to set ourselves over others. We must give respect to the differences of faith through which each of us in our separate ways shows service to our Creator. And it is time for us to pray together.

No land has greater opportunity than Ethiopia. No people has a history deeper and richer than Ethiopia. We have each other to share and celebrate our triumphs — and there will be triumphs to come — just as we have each other to strengthen us through our trials.

In all of this, the Crown of Ethiopia is only a symbol of your greatness, your potential, your strength, and your compassion. It is yours.

God Bless You, and God Bless Ethiopia.

NEW RASTAFARI Fine Art: Winter 2019/2020 “Out of the Dark”

Welcome to the Winter Series, “Out of the Dark.” It is title so because of the many changes that have happened this Winter. Lots of those we Love have completed their cycle on this plane, and we all have had life teaching and challenging us. Let Jah Light Beam In. This series documents Nov. to Jan. of the art that has been made. Special for this presentation are many paintings never published will be shown today for the first time. I will not include the Scroll of Reasons because it has already been shared and written on in detail. All the pieces below are available as prints and some of the originals are available. I would like to thank everyone who collaborated in the visions and the art itself. 4 Joy-tings are collaborations with others, and that is super cool and special. I also have received many ideas from others that I have put into the art. Thank you everyone for the support and strength. You will be mentioned with the piece!

Acrylic and Indian Ink on Canvas.

“Christ On the Rock “Acrylic and Indian Ink on Canvas.

This is the first piece I did after I received a surgery on my spine. It was an interesting point, because I had to see if my motor skills were good after having my spinal cord decompressed. This would allow my nerves to work on my left side of my body which had been giving me problems. The Joy-ting was that. The feeling of doing the stretches involved in painting and feeling muscles work again was what I needed. The Joy-ting came out with ease and effortless. A too effortless, and that is why I decided to put a more dramatic background than I previously had. My son’s and I worked on it together and made a video about painting techniques. You can check it here.  Ras Elijah Painting   The first canvas came out lovely after the surgery and it was time keep up the works. The Original was sold to Mr. Greg Tate and I thank him for the huge support in the efforts to make the art spawn the vision to reality.

" From Heart To Mouth " by Dre-Z Melodi and Ras Elijah Tafari. Acrylic and Indian Ink on Canvas. 20"x28"

” From Heart To Mouth ” by Dre-Z Melodi and Ras Elijah Tafari. Acrylic and Indian Ink on Canvas. 20″x28″

This piece is for a special upcoming project, to be announced..It was a very heights project, that focuses on Rastafari. Here Emperor Haile Selassie  I is shooting energy into the Lion Man on the Earth. His Imperial Majesty shooting it from the Orb is to show that is the Energy of the Earth and the Fullness there-of which is that The Lord shoots into him. Out of the Lion Man’s mouth is the river that flows through the gentle land scape of New Mexico, symbolizing the Words of the Rastaman. Dre-Z took the lead with this piece and made the landscape perfect for New Mexico. His pueblo design is great and colors captured the New Mexican tierra perfectly. Likewise composition and layout was Dre-Z at the lead. This is the second Joy-ting we have worked on together, looking forward to lots more. The triangle designs are a traditional native design once again brought by Dre-Z. We would like to also give InI daughter, Tana Tafari-Morgan a hail up for painting in the pyramids. The original is available and prints as well.  http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/from-heart-to-mouth-by-dre-z-melodi-and-ras-elijah-tafari/

" Ethiopia, Lifts the World." By Ras Elijah Tafari and Dre-Z Melodi. Acrylic, Gold, and Indian Ink on Canvas.

” Ethiopia, Lifts the World.” By Ras Elijah Tafari and Dre-Z Melodi. Acrylic, Gold, and Indian Ink on Canvas. Original sold, prints available.

This piece is the 3rd I have done with Dre-Z Melodi. It is for a very special upcoming project…Placed on a New Mexico landscape, it goes with the last piece. This piece says          ” Ethiopia ” in Amharic, in a whirlwind. On the Whirlwind are the ancestors praying and singing for our resurrection and transcendence throughout the rising times. Seven Priests in Black represent each of the Seals placed on the Book, and the 9 priests below represent the everlasting order of Melchizadok.  The Man and Woman are the Balance of the Earth in their decision to use the Fire and Heart of His and Her Majesty to fly like hot air balloons but higher.  In their levitation/ livication to the King and Queen of Kings they are able to be the purple lotus. The lotus symbolize the Royal Children of Jah that have not been forsaken in the mud and moss, but grow like beauty for ashes. The Power of the Heart illustrated by Dre-Z goes off the page to reach out to go beyond the image. This is the most detailed I have gone into painting the Crowns of His and Her Majesty, Haile Selassie the First and Empress Asfaw Menen.  St. George is proudly shown on His Crown as is The Madonna on Her Crown. This piece has been spoken for, however prints look good and are available. This piece hasn’t been seen till today and we are excited to see this get out to the World! Prints available here:  http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/ethiopia-lifts-the-world-by-ras-elijah-tafaridre-z-melodi/
