Selalssie I speaks on "Spirituality"

[Moorish Rebel]

Haile Selassie I Speaks on Spirituality:


The temple of the Most High begins with the human body which houses our
life, the 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 to grow spiritually. Due to human imperfection religion has
become corrupt, political, divisive, and a tool for power struggle.
Spirituality is not theology or ideology. It is simply a way of life, pure
and original as was given by the Most High of Creation. Spirituality is a
network linking us to the Most High, the universe and each other. As the
essence of our existence, it embodies our culture, true identity, nationhood,
and destiny. A people without a nation that they can really call their own is
a people without a soul.

"Africa is our nation and is in spiritual and
physical bondage because her leaders are turning to outside forces for
solutions to African problems when everything Africa needs is within her.
When African righteous people come together the world will come together.
This is our divine destiny".

i was just finishing or just started reading pre colonial black africa by cheik anta diop and it blew me away when he says" islam helped africans to forget about their pagan past" meaning afrikan spirituality,islam highly condemned and still condemns afrikan spirituality,the book also goes to say,that sacrifice is evil and this and that,and islam helped afrikans,indeed,thatsa timely posting,as well,foreign religions killed my peoples,the amerindians and the afrikans( since i have both in my blood)

Greetings Everyone!

Moorish Rebel, this is one of my favorite speech by HIM Haile Selassie I.
His words speaks volume even today. Our people are not listening to leaders such as HIM and they keep trying to find all the wrong solutions for their problems, when time and time again they ignore the answers that has already been given to us by the elders and the ancestors

Much appreciation for taking the time to share this valuable resource.


Peace!
