Prometheus a statue of this Greek god sits in front of the John D. Rockefeller center in NewYork, the flame atop his head is the flame of illumination.

This woman openly promoted the smoking of Hashish as a spiritual enhancer.Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (-Hahn), (Jekaterinoslav 12 august. 1831London 8 may 1891

author of (The Secret Doctrine), founder of the Theosophical School.

She was a leading theosophist before her death; she had many protgs among them was thefamed Annie Besant, and Alice Ann Bailey ofThe reappearance of the Christ fame.

Annie BesantBesant was considered by George Bernard Shaw to bethe greatest female orator of her time.

Besant was a great friend of Mahatma Ghandi and his cohort Jawarhlal Nehru.


2/13

Annie Besant was an avowed atheist before she met madame Blavatsky.

In the book written by Alice Bailey she claimed that the earth would pass through acleansing cycle, all those who rejected the idea that humanity could experience their own

godhood, such as Christians and others would be removed as part of that cleansing cycle

according to her Jesus was simply an ascended master each of us can ascend therefore we all

have the potential to be Christ like, as can be seen this teaching is simply the same deceptionthat Satan told Eve in the garden.

Unfortunately, this teaching is a part of the core value system as set forth in the teaching material

of the United Nations.The organization that has as its primal responsibility the collective security of the human race

and the education of the race has a value system developed by theosophists who have a religion

that has been dubbed The New Age Movement.

The present British Labor Party once led by Tony Blair and now by Gordon Brown, adoptedmuch of its ideology from the Fabian Society an organization populated by theosophists all of

whom called themselves intellectuals, some of its more famous members were Annie Besant

and George Bernard Shaw.

Shaw was the most famous English playwright of the 19th

and 20th

century.

As can be seen some of the most powerful and influential public figures in the westernhemisphere.

In the spheres of politics, popular culture and even religion are decidedly of a pronounced anti-

Christian value system as a result Christian youth should be maximally equipped with

information that will allow them to separate the truth of their value system from the paganismtaught on university campuses and elsewhere.

In the following section, we will examine the intellectualization of drug addiction and the

glamorization of such by mainly western European so called intellectuals.


3/13

Black men and women who consider themselves to be intellectuals have also glamorized the

drug life, even some in the Black Nationalist and Consciousness communities have

perpetuated the drug lifestyle or rather to use a term from their own lingua the drug death style.

Sigmund Freud the Cocaine addicted occult practioner and his friend Carl Jung also an occultist

invented modern psychology.

Lauded by Western academia as the father of their modern psychology.

Both these men openly admitted to their Cocaine useFreud was an outright Junky who saidCocaine was his personal medicine and he came up with most of his theories that are used today

in Colleges and universities while under its influence .Since the bible calls these practices

sorcery and when one is under a drugs influence it is really a demonspirit that one is opened to orpossessed by one can see why this work states that the so called secular world is in fact the

kingdom of Satan since their inspiration for everything that they do is literally demon inspired

ways of thinking and living.

John D Rockefeller in 1947 he donated the grounds on which the present day United Nationsbuilding sits to the U.N.The influence of Bailey's works has been, even greater than that of Blavatsky in the New Age

movement. Another well-known theosophist/occultitian and Blavatsky clone is Annie Besant.

Annie Besant became leader of the occult theosophical society, and began to regard India as herhome. Besant was appointed, head of the Indian National Congress, established by the British

government in 1917. She also fought for the restoration of the Indian cults.

Before her death in 1933, at Madras she tried to establish her Hindu protg J Krishnamurti as

the messiah,and a world teacher.

She was waiting to be reincarnated in order to continue her work to save the earth.The similarities between certain practices of sects worldwide in the nineteen thirties are

astounding.

The thirties saw an upsurge in millenarian movements and messianic sects, Rastafari is only oneof many.This book aims to reveal the various influences and aspects within Shamanist

cultures,additionally it is, an introduction to the Full Body Ministry.

CHAPTER 1: THE ESOTERIC ORIGINS OF RASTAFARI.

Many claim that Rastafari was as a result of a prophecyby Marcus Moziah Garvey.

Marcus Garvey the Jamaican born 1930,s Black Nationalist and head of the U.N.I.A. was a

vehement critic of Haile Selassie hemaligned him for seeking British protection during the

Italian aggression led by Benito Mussolini against Ethiopia in the nineteen thirties .Garvey never recognized the Rastafari as a serious Black Nationalistorganization.

Association.

Garvey organized Africans on the continent and around the globe, around his Black Nationalist

philosophy it is from the school of thought developed by this man, that many of the modern

African intellectuals and Pan- Africanists gained their core ideology.Although many earlier Garveyites later became Rastafari this was a personal choice not

something inspired by a cohesive philosophy.

Garvey proclaimed many times in speeches that a prince would come out of Africa Ethiopiawould soon stretch out her hands unto God quoting from psalms.Most soapbox orators of the time, of the Black Nationalist persuasion, often quoted biblical

passages in an attempt, to stir the collective souls of their audiences.

The bible was held in high esteem,anyone familiar with scripture was honored by poor blacks ofthe time.

Garvey was no exception he was shrewd,he knew how to, collectively mobilize people for mass

action.

Garvey never prophesied of the coronation of Haile Selassie, a scriptural quote is not a prophesy.The Rastafari took Garveys scriptural quotation of psalms 68: 31; Princes shall come out of

Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God, as direct prophetic fulfillment in the

crowning of Haile Selassie.I will now deal with a very troubling development, in a certain type of literature that has been

developed, but which will not remain unchallenged.

The type of literature Iam alluding to is that which has been created by white writers and

journalists, pandering to what they consider to be their humanist side, what it truly is;Arrogance, and an economic niche, that they have created for themselves, wherein they have

been able to generate exorbitant amounts of funds pandering to the type of readership that they

cater to.Within this type of literature, there exists much hypocrisy, I will touch lightly on the subject, and

it is with indignation that I write when I deal with their outright blatant attempt, to minimize, and

diminish the accomplishments and contributions, that Marcus Garvey made to the Black man

globally. I am aware of quite a few people, whose lives changedfor the better after readingGarveys work; the statements made by this white

journalist will not go unchallenged in this work.

Marcus Garvey being led captive by his American captors on a false charge of using the USmail servicesto facilitate fraudulent activity. Through the Freedom of Information Act, the

widow of Garvey Amy Jacques Garvey was able to

procure formerly confidential FBI documents and alsothe actual transcripts of the court proceedings that led to

the illegal conviction of Marcus Garvey .

Marcus Garvey was influenced by his own admission by

one Edward Wilmot Blyden.A native of the B.V.I.A St Thomas resident, who

travelled to Africa as a missionary.

Many people will try to falsify history and reduce

Garvey to a narrow paradigm as exclusive to Jamaica hissignificance transcends geographic boundaries, he was

truly a world citizen, his teaching was universal the

aspects of Garveyism that are separatist and racist hisconcept of race purity, is rank racism and


6/13

nationalism I reject outright and condemn that aspect of his teaching the other aspects of

Garveyism that are conducive to my wholesome development I can consume the rest I discard as

unacceptable for my consumption.Garvey was a product of the type of thinking being developed amongst African descendants in

the West at that time.

The global universe of education produced Garvey, Blyden, George Padmore , C.L.R. James andlater Malcolm X and Martin Luther King J.R.These men were not mere soapbox orators they literally shaped the world and influenced

generations of the earths populace.

Although men like C.L.R. James were Marxists they still shaped much of what is termed BlackLiterature today.For this reason I have openly stated apostolic people cannot honor anyone

whether they are black or white simply on the basis of their status as a pop icon, pop culture is

not limited to music. Popular culture denotes all accepted art forms that have made a

significant impact in what is considered an acceptable or professional standard.There were many black Marxists and Communists some like Harry Belafonte are revered by

many people who call themselves Christian how can you claim Christ and revere and honor

someone who is diametrically opposed to all that you claim to stand for.The mistake of black people identifying with anyone popular who looks like them is an

example of a negative cultural characteristic that apostolic people must avoid.

I identify more with a Chinese or Japanese who is truly saved than with any black manor woman

who is not, skin color is not the basis for my allegiance, another persons allegiance to Jesusforms the basis of my allegiance to that person regardless of race, color, or creed.

Malcolm X impact transcends the so called African American Malcolm X is revered by many

Muslim youth from Morocco and throughout much of Muslim Africa, particularly in the Sudanand outside of the Muslim community in Africa he is honored by many on the continent and

throughout the Western hemisphere .

The significance of these people and their lifes work was mentioned in order to illustrate how

these persons influenced and shaped the thinking of Caribbean people.In her book The First Rasta Helen Lee claims, that Marcus Garvey was agitating for

integration,how a supposedly informed individual could make such a claim, can mean only one

thing, Lee who is obviously enamored with Howell; was pandering to certain sentiments andsensibilities of the type of readership that she caters to.

Lee also made the ridiculous claim that Garvey never returned to Jamaica she correctly stated

that Garvey died in England in 1940.After his release from prison on trumped up charges Marcus Garvey was deported to Jamaica in

1928, where he resumed his activities on behalf of Africans everywhere.

He was politically active in Jamaica where he ran for a seat on the city council while he was in

prison, he won by an overwhelming margin.Lee attempt at diminishing the impact and influence of Marcus Garvey on the development of

African civilization in the Diaspora is exposed in this work for what it is, a specious attempt at

misinformation the historical records clearly show that Garvey was deported back to Jamaica he

later left for England where he died in 1940 by creating the false notion that Garvey neverreturned to Jamaica but was somehow sent to England is a deliberate and malicious attempt by

this white journalist claiming to identify so greatly with the Rastafari that even within the

obvious suicidal behavior of Athlyi( Roger Athlyiwriter of the Holy Piby i.e. the Rastafari


7/13

bible).Lee attempted to make Athlyi some sort of hero. Athlyi killed himself plain and simple no

amount of misplaced pandering to misdirected sensibilities can change this.

The likes of Athlyi was not and have never been a great influence on black people globallyAthlyi marginal influence is limited to the few followers he had in his heyday, likewise Leonard

Howell. Marcus Mosiah Garvey on the other hand influenced black intellectuals globally and he

still does so today from politicians and preachers to university students to street hustlersGarveyism has had an enduring impact on the world that no human being can diminish nor deny.The ideology that Garvey espoused, led to many African leaders, such as Kwame Nkrumah, and

Jomo Kenyatta just to mention two very famous leaders, who openly called themselves Pan-

Africanists after the ideology developed by Marcus Mosiah Garvey. The ideology calledGarveyism, led to these men formulating the methods, and means that they would later utilize to

bring about the independence of their respective countries. That they failed to follow in the Pan-

African tradition after having achieved independence is no reflection on Garveyism at all, but

rather it is a reflection on the men as human beings.Today both the JLP and the PNP of Jamaica are both vying for the right to call themselves the

ideological successors of Marcus Garvey; fortunately for Garvey history will show that he was

not a socialist. Garvey believed firmly in the democratic ideal, and capitalism, in fact was hispreferred economic model.

Both the JLP and PNP are socialistic in their rhetoric, in practice they are decidedly

autocratic,and absolutist in their governing styles bordering on oligarchies. The very fact that

these parties are now vying for the right to call Marcus Garvey, the father of their politicalideology, points to his universal acceptance that has in fact forced the political hierarchy in his

homeland, to want to adopt him as father of their various movements.

Pan-Africanists, the Rastafari, students of the enlightened variety both white and blackhave long accepted and understood the universal truths espoused by Marcus Garvey,however his

separatist rhetoric has been and rightly should be avoided by most the applicability of his

political program as pertains to the betterment of the condition of the African in the Diaspora

should be championed by any truly enlightened Caribbean leader.Caribbean people do not need white journalists or academicians to define their reality;theycan

define their own reality.

On the point of the church role in the Caribbean; Lee attempts to portray the role of women,assubstituting for the lack of men in said institutions. The Jesus image, as created by whites is

portrayed by Lee, as a psychological prop; unto which black Caribbean Christian women, project

all of their pent up sexual emotions.Lee in her attempt to describe the church services of some people, who may or may not be

Christian,lumped Christianity with Pocomania, and other religious sects.

The Pentecostal movement is a factworldwide; many people around the world grew up in the

Pentecostal movement.Lee erroneously claimed that speaking in tongues is akin to the possession, of the cults.

Speaking in tongues has been observed all over the globe even among Europeans and

Caucasians in America and Canada, accounts of such are to be found in newspaper articles and

on video footage throughout the western hemisphere.The attempt by some white writers to portray speaking in tongues as a black

phenomena,limited to the uneducated and the ignorant is an example of their use of their

mastery of the written word to portray events in favor of the worldview that they espouse.This inthe case of writers like Helen Lee and Timothy White is a decidedly pro-Rastafari worldview.


8/13

While these writers can champion whatever worldview they want to their attempts at lumping the

very real experience of the indwelling of the Holy Ghost in true Christians with demon or

spirit possession akin to the possession at a Voodoo ceremony will be challenged in this work asit is mere fantasy and conjecture on the part of two journalists attempting to explain away

something that is experienced by people globally regardless of color or creed on a daily basis, as

a purely black phenomena limited to a few backward peasants and women with a limitededucation nothing could be farther from the truth.Since true Christianity is diametrically opposed to occultism, those of us who truly know what

the Full Body Ministry, stands for can appreciate the paradox in the matter.

For one the truly Christian woman would consider such thoughts sacrilegious, and the so-calledwhite Jesus image, even in Jamaican society is not revered by all, not in the early 20

thcentury

nor today.

There has been and still are in the region churches that emphatically teach an anti-Eurocentric

doctrine, there are many church institutions regionally who do not encourage the veneration ofany imagery periodtaken from Roman Catholicism, even the pagan Christmas is not venerated

nor celebrated by Apostolic people in the Caribbean nor around the globe.

The weak attempt of a white woman to define the experience of the African in the Diasporafailed, as all such attempts must fail, by dint of the fact that; the African in the Diaspora is far

more complicated, and sophisticated than any one from outside said group, presuming to be

ableto precisely analyze an entire group of people will ever be able to fathom.

Leonard Howell one of the earliest Rastafari leaders/ prophets was an ardent admirer ofHinduism, and Indian culture and philosophy in general.

The original Howellites could be heard chanting to Krishna the Hindu-god.

Howell began in the early thirties encouraging his followers to revere Haile Selassie as amessiah, during this time there were many Rastafari mendicants.

Some well-known leaders were Joseph Hinds, Archibald Dunkley and Nathaniel Hibberts,

though there were many leaders, these were some of the earliest and chief leaders, of some of the

better known Rastafari sects.All the other more contemporary leaders rose to prominence in thenineteen sixties.

Haile Selassie received certain Rastafari leaders during his Jamaican visit, some of whom were

honored with imperial medals by the emperor. Mention also must be made here of PrinceEmmanuel the founder of the Emmanualites so called Bobo Shanties.

Vernon Carrington founder of the twelve tribes of Israel is a well-known Rastafari leader; both

these men rose to prominence in the sixties.A Rastafari delegation went to Africa after the visit of Haile Selassie to Jamaica

Haile Selassie himself denounced the idea that he was divine; stating that he was a Christian, and

worshipped Jesus, the Rastafari saw his denial as a sign of humility.

The idea of Haile Selassie as a god later gained global prominence through the medium ofReggae music;RobertNesta Marley the half-caste boy from Kingston being its most ardent seed

planter.

The philosophical packaging and ideology of Rastafari is similar in many aspects,to Hinduism,

right down to their Vegan diet,anyone can discover this for themselves by studying the originaltheology of Rastafari, the person wishing to know truth must first understand who Howell was,

and why his doctrine appealed to the disenfranchised, and downtrodden of society.The first

Rastafari unlike today, were largely poor, and uneducated young black men and women theeldership consisted of war veterans, some former Garveyites, and many young unwed mothers.


9/13

Although Howell was not the only black Jamaican at that time teaching about a black messiah,

he was one of them who succeeded where many failed in establishing a commune where his

people could live and work largely undisturbed by outsiders.The belief in a universal black messiah was widespread amongst African descendants in the

Western hemisphere, even amongst African Americans, as they had their Wallace Fard and

Elijah Poole aka Elijah Muhammad, (These men also claimed to be messiahs or Mahdi=Arabicfor messiah).Based on historical accounts then we can safely say that Leonard Howell was not a novelty in the

early thirties when this type of teaching was widespread amongst black people globally.

What was novel about Howell though, was his ability to galvanize his followers few before himor after him have been able to do what he did, and it is for that reason that I have chosen to focus

on him, he influenced present day Rastafari thinking and living more so than any of the other

leaders.

Even after Howells camp (Pinnacle) was broken up, many of his followers were able togalvanize large segments of the poorer classes behind their ideology.

Poverty lack of education and financial resources conditioned the masses of young people at that

time to seek a way out of their situation.When Howell came on the scene preaching black pride and hailing Haile Selassie as a god,

offering a refuge from the ghetto that they inhabited Howells practice of Marijuana use offered a

temporary escape from the bleak landscape at that time.

Howell became an instant savior to those people at that time he became their leader a voice forthe voiceless and a father to the fatherless.

Howell renounced his British citizenship claiming Ethiopia as the Promised Land for blacks, and

Haile Selassie as their long awaited king who would deliver them from European colonialtyranny and oppression.

Howell lived in an Indian styled hilltop commune, called Pinnacle he called himself Gangunguru

Marajh, he even had a harem in the manner of the Hindu kings that he so admired.

Howell was well read and had traveled extensively when he lived in the city of New York; he rana tea shop,he more than likely sold Marijuana in his tea shop.

Howell himself functioned as a healer; years later in Jamaica, he would use his knowledge to

heal people, he took them to a hot springs bath that relaxed their minds and bodies healing themof many ailments in their physical bodies.

Howell was not simply talking hope he was bringing about results many of the women he

attracted were young uneducated single mothers looking for a way out poverty.The situation today has not changed much the Village Ram mentality; of some in the Caribbean,

has spawned a generation of young single parent households headed by mostly, poor, young,

uneducated women.

This situation has led to an increasingly alarming number of single, young women, turning to,the drug lords for their financial sustenance.

While criminal enterprise has proven to be very lucrative.The truly wealthy criminals hold a

monopoly position.

The youngmen and women that the dons employ; are largely their pawns, and are usuallyexpendable when they no longer cooperate, or are either incarcerated or incapacitated.

Howell was what the poor saw as a way of escape at that time he knew what they wanted him for

and he wanted power and lordship thusly both parties were served they fed his illusions ofgrandeur and he literally fed them in this scenario each party corrupted the other yet they both


10/13

got what they wanted . Howell was genuine in his beliefs he was willing to die for his beliefs and

his followers this is what endears a man to anyone if

a man is willing to die for his word that stance will inadvertently bring about a certain measureof respect from others even ones enemies.

Howell was a bonafide channeler he was an adept in elemental magic; (elemental magicis r ituals

where various elemental spir its are conjured in order to aid the adepts, there are earthboundspir its, fi re spir its, water spir its, and air spir its), his son Blade in the book The First Rasta byHelen Lee corroborated this. Howell was adept at spirit channeling people felt a definite

presence when he entered a room, that was his hallmark his bearing and presence.

Bob Marley would later emulate this man calling himself Tough Gong,meaning Iam tougherthan Gong. The original Gong was Leonard Howell, a Gong is a hallowed cymbal like

instrument used by almost all oriental religious systems of worship, to announce the proceeding,

or ending of a session, this instrument was also used to honor a particular deityspresence.

Howell was meticulous in his choice of names and euphemisms Bob Marleys use of the namewas mostly braggadocios, and also a respectful acquiescence of the preeminence of Howell.

Howell used Cannabis as a means of gaining contact with the spirit world.

Howell understood that the average youth,of a western persuasion would never easily grasp theintricacies involved in spirit contact through meditation, and tantricism, the smoking of Cannabis

was an easier simpler method so this was employed.

In the late sixties, Howell and his followers were nominally wealthy people, because of,

Cannabis cultivation.Rastafari culture holds as a core tenet that, Cannabis Sativa is a sacred i.e. (Holy)plant.

They brought with them their religious beliefs and gods; (Some accounts claim that the

Spaniards introduced Cannabis into the Caribbean as early, as the 15th

century, the Cannabis

originated in both historical accounts in India).

These people some of whom were called Sadhus, or holy men brought Cannabis Sativa toJamaica their worship of their gods sometimes entailed the smoking of Cannabis, at certain

points an elixir would also be drunk this potion contained a mixture of honey and

Cannabis,(Behang/Bhang).

The above plant is a Hemp plant, which was grown in the Caribbean region in as early as the

15th century this, was done chiefly by the British in an attempt to break the Russian monopolyon the production of Hemp as an industrial product.

The Hemp plant was used chiefly as an industrial product, the plant is indigenous to West andCentral Asia.

Euphrates and TigrisRiversrespectively areshown as two blue parallel lines flowing into thePersianGulf. The complexed relationships evinced between these regions cannot be handled in

this work as this will take the work into an unintended direction suffice it to say that this work isin fact a synopsis of a much broader work.

Western Asia denotes a number of geographic regions chiefly Iran, Turkey, Syria, and a numberof other regions Iraq is in South Western Asia.

As recently as1979,Iran was known as Persia.

The term Central Asia denotes portions of or the entire region of Turkistan, Turkistan is thehistorical term for a region in Central Asia comprised of Kazakhstan, portions of Tajikistan and


13/13

Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, and the autonomous Chinese border territory ofXinxiang Uygur

in the past it was called East Turkistan or Chinese Turkistan.

Authors note, The last piece of historical data shows why there is a Chinese Muslim populationin China, this occurred as a result of conquest by the Turks during the expansion of their

Ottoman empire if one is an avid news buff you will recall that the Xinxiang province in China is

a hotbed of Chinese Muslim extremist activity.As can be seen taking into account the information given about the civilizations shown above,they were all highly developed cultures in the past and had frequent contact amongst themselves,

it should come as no surprise to anyone that a common religion was shared by the people in the

regions shown above, again using archeology and historical data I have shown and proven mystatements and assertions shown herein, I will now continue our look at the Hemp plant.

Hemp is also grown as an industrial product in Russia, Poland, Japan, Hungary, and China.

Hemp is refined and developed into soap, it is used in paint,and the Hemp products Marijuana,

and Hajjis are used as drugs.Based on the above information we have learnt that, Cannabis served a variety of uses, in the

past as well as today.

In modern society in most countries of theworld,Cannabis is used, as a recreational drug, itsusefulness as medicine has rarely been examined, or taken seriously by the medical community.

Many persons clamor for its legalization as a means of furthering their own subversive agendas.

The aim here is not to promote the smoking of any substance recreationally or for self-

medication, the intent here is to honestly deal with the multi-functional role that Hemp productshave played as a natural product that has been developed and exploited by man, it is in mans

abuse and misuse of the plant that he has created the addictive behavior, evinced today among

many people in all sectors of society.I will now resume my examination of the Pinnacle settlement and the lifestyle of its leader and

his followers.

The Pinnacle settlement was associated with Indian plantation workers with locked hair; this was

before any African descendants in Jamaica ever grew locks.

Certain Rastafari elders called locks Zagavi;theetymology of the word, Zagavi is in the

shamanic esoteric culture as a global value system and its antithesis.2
