Some people fade away while some become more closer and closer over time, whether present with the person or not. To sit or truly hear the Hon. Vaughn Benjamin in this time is to behold Haile Selassie I powers. His words opened up minds to the Emperor like no other. I thanked him for this, for speaking more about the Emperor and teaching us the multi-facets Atse Haile Selassie First occupies within and around us more than any ever had. Akae Beka showed everything runs off the Power of the Trinity. He simply closed his eyes and smiled. I see that smile, that Iration in those he touched, ways of solving problems, increasing compassion, solemn work ethic, and most prolific heartical praises. I can see how no one is letting him go, they are bringing him closer to them. They are holding on to anything they can, and see it as holy and sacred. That is good, value his time, and teachings, don’t forget, remember now more than ever. Keep it all alive, and pass it on. I see the I in the in InI and IhI’s. Let that solid firmness in His Imperial Majesty intensify. Let the Powers transmute and be transferred through our Faith and Action. May Jah Bless All is offspring, and cover a blanket of Love on his parents, extended family, band members and the musicians who stood with him. All fi One. One fi All. Let Emperor Haile Selassie I and Empress Menen be Praised for the gift to have met a man like he. The Heart stays where his heart stays, and yes it stays. Akae Beka and the word “Forever” are already interlinked. So nuff said, My Lord is still strong in the Earth, and strong in the Heavens. Blessed Earth Strong, Hon. Vaughn Benjamin. The Kingsiples and Principals stay. To a man who would gladly be rained on as he held an umbrella over The King of Kings. Thank you Jah for sharing with us such a one. Praise Jah! Rastafari.
