Have you ever heard of rastamans? Surely heard. But, probably, many people think that rastamans are those who smoke weed or just listen to reggae. It's not like that at all. So who is Rastaman really? A true Rastaman is a person whose religion is called Rastafari. Although this is the most unexplored religion, there are many codes and rules that a real Rastaman must adhere to.
Such a person should always tell only the truth, smoke ganja, do not drink alcohol, do not eat meat, do not smoke tobacco and do not go to the doctor, because God Dzha will cure him of any disease, if necessary. If he does not cure, then he will simply give him another incarnation.
How to recognize a rastaman on the street?In addition to these rules, there is also the so-called dress code for hairstyles and colors of clothing. The rastaman will have dreadlocks on his head, and all his clothes will consist of red, yellow and green flowers. However, if a person eats meat or, say, drinks medicine, he cannot be a rastaman. At the same time, a person who does not wear dreadlocks or dresses in a strict suit can be one. Because external attributes cannot determine your religiosity. Various pictures and photographs can clearly show who the rastaman is, but in order to deeply study their inner world, it is necessary to search through not one article, but even better, communicate with him personally.
What kind of religion?
The roots of this religion come from the XV century BC, and they originated in a large region, which includes the open spaces from Egypt to Ethiopia. Then the main philosophy of this religion was the spiritual unification of Africa.
After so much time, the course of the Rastafarians not only did not disappear, but also gained momentum. Of course, current ideas, concepts have changed, but not so significantly. If you saw a multi-colored person with dreadlocks and a colored hat on his head, it immediately makes it clear who he is. Rastaman will always be kind, calm and responsive. This is their pluses. They will never create conflict situations, representatives of rastamanism against violence and war in general.
Famous names
Among them there are also very popular, outstanding personalities, such as Mortimer Planno, Samuel Brown, Ras Macpherson, Peter Tosh and Bunny Weiler. These names will seem familiar to few people, but probably everyone is familiar with Bob Marley's Rastafarian.
A truly outstanding musician from Jamaica who, with his rich inner world and ideology, won the hearts of millions of people around the world, and not just in Jamaica.
Almost all songs of Bob Marley are known to every Rastaman, the chords of his songs are heard everywhere. However, besides him, there are other performers in the world of rasta music, less well-known, but no less talented.
Almost all Russian rastamans know the song, the author of which is a rastaman, - "I do not need a crown." Having a guitar and even not the most professional playing skills, it will be easy to play relaxing motives in the company, which will create an even more suitable atmosphere for this strange, contradictory and almost unexplored, but very interesting religion called Rastafari.
