It's funny how when you go about your life expecting things you will more than likely find yourself disappointed at the loss of your expectation. But if you were to take a different approach and persevere opposed to expect whatever outcome your trying to achieve, chances are your perseverance will allow you to know the necessary steps needed to be taken. See if you take expectation and break it down you will discover the roots of your problem. Expectation when broken down can be accounted for ignorance and greed. If you automatically expect an outcome your being ignorant to the chance that it may play out differently. Where as well if you're expecting an outcome you are accounting your entire self responsible. Therefore justifying your greed in the situation. See ignorance and greed go hand in hand in the problematic approach of expectation. If you go about your day expecting it to be perfect you are being ignorant to the fact that it may not and your being greedy expecting everything to go your way. So lets take the alternative approach and say you wake up in the morning and tell yourself you are going to persevere for the perfect day. Well in order to do so you have to give yourself a plan of perseverance. Voila! Now you have made yourself realize the steps you need to take. See expectation would have ignored looking for the steps and could have easily led you to a bad day. It is a pretty easy concept to grasp in whole, but its a trick your mind likes to play when deciding your future. Have you ever had a day where you didn't know what to do about something and told yourself you needed to go for a walk? Well more than likely on that walk you talked to yourself and you were trying to figure out a plan on how to deal with whatever situation you were in. Well in reality you were actually physically taking the steps towards your plan of perseverance. This is the wonderful thing about perseverance that it is your intuition, it is you! See when you persevere it allows your intuition to engage the matter giving yourself the power to control what you can ultimately control. Where as if you went on expecting your giving the control away to others. We all want success in our lives so in order to achieve it we must begin to persevere it allowing ourselves to firstly have control to do so. Expectation would give us no control in finding success and we'd be in for a lifetime full of loss. Here's a line from Passion Pit's hit single "Take a Walk." "I'm down on both bad knees I'm just too much a coward to admit when I'm in need
I took a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take walk." Ironic sure, truth on finding the key for help definitely. When your down and in need of help a simple walk with yourself will offer the enlightenment of perseverance you were looking for.
"The power of the tongue was always mightier than the sword." Rastafari you gave reason to truth. You gave life back to the youth. Power and sound for a righteous revolution. Igniting the spirit, a revelry against constitution. A path for healing and happiness. Equality is rooted in I n I humblebility is our dress. A Rastaman life was for I. Finding love again in nature a natural high. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Come follow JAH way and learn how to hold her. Rectify Zion." ^R.M

Welcome to the Philosopher's stone. My blog has been running for the last year and a half. I have been a practicing Rastaman since I began this write. I have a love for music, writing, culture and God. The truth to this blog is to find the power of the people. Power is found through unity and ideal. Ultimately a unified ideal can begin a unified identity. Rastafari is a lot more then believing in the herb. It is a faith and a way of living. I have dedicated a lot of this blog to poetry and music. Wisdom is my true passion because it is a field of study that is never ending. I have touched on subjects that matter on ancient hermetic Egyptian wisdom which is the foundation of all world faith and Religion. The truth is that we live in a day in age of what which will begin to be a spiritual awakening. That we are spiritual beings that live a spiritual life. The power of the spirit can power a mind to find what one is called to in life. Spirituality is the power of all humanity. Rastafari is the teaching of all acceptance. That is the belief of a Rastaman. I am in transition with this blog and well my passion is to teach one day. I have yet to bring news source to my blog but decided to start to bring 3rd party source on this site to help gather more culture that involves what a Rasta really stands for. We are the the way of root living and the faith that teaches the system is corrupt. Enjoy reading some material that involves Rasta worldwide. One Love.

As they say in the Big Easy hey y'all . Little did I know that local lingo for New Orleans would become my renewed faith in understanding a new way of life. Big Easy as a sort of a Hakuna Matata lighter sense and page. My names Ryan and people call me Moke for a nick. Heavy in my dance & river days I went by Movement. I like them all. Never needed a Mohawk to rectify my will. Well anyways I just moved back to sunny San Diego after spending the last close to 3 years in Louisiana. Born and raised in San Diego private school the whole 9 yards and a Kaeding of a miss to a field goal. Did some time up in Chico, CA. Fun times, but was still searching on what I wanted to do in life. Dipped down south to get Bourbon dirty while looking to find my calling.. Right? If your going to do it you might as well do it right. Met some fun people, made some memories and actually grew up. Left a lovely girl behind, but hopefully one day we'll be back in mind. Moral of the story I finally found out something I was looking for. What was really going on and is it really 2014 already? I picked up my love for writing and let my thoughts take the wheel. As I was riding upon my journal I knew my higher self was leading me somewhere. Go figure out the roots to my roots. I had a revelation that their was one genre of music I had ventured in but not far enough. Reggae was making its way back to me and I began to remember my love of its simplicity but profound truth. Sure enough my writing was taking me there as well. Tired of the battle amongst Christianity and other world religions I turned to studying nature. Began self teaching Astrotheology and other hermetic wisdom. Then it dawned on me there was a lost world doctrine and way of life that emphasized that nature is the way. Rastafarian. Remembering its misconception of a youth's rebellion I always knew it held more than truth, pure truth. So here I am still dipping my toes in understanding the Rastaman's way knowing my hometown is the place to start. Identity had been important for many but many like myself gave up on what was being taught. The purpose that is driven through my blog is to find a commune in my generation's ideology and bring people back together through the power of spirituality and love for acceptance for one another. A recognition of the empowering One Love. One thing our world has lost touch of is the rooted key of the Rastaman way. That is living life through suppression and instilling self discipline. Wasn't this the path that all eastern and western religions insinuated as being the tool for enlightenment? Yes, but it got misconstrued through its complexity. Heigh-ho back to the roots we should go. So I invite you to follow my blog to begin to learn a lost way of life or to invite you to teach me a thing or two. It is time our generation spoke together through the power of unified identity. Time for a real campaign of change from the people as it should be and come. Time our entire nation legalized the plant that symbolized freedom. Sending Rastaman vibrations outwards for a revival of a Kingdom. Please feel free to add me on facebook Ryan Moquin
~Peace, Love, Unity and Respect we already knew what was coming next~

Hey everybody. Sorry for lack of content the last past month I was actually locked up in jail. No need to worry I'm back here to stay and all is well. Anyways I had much time to write and foresee where I wanted to take this blog and in what direction. A lot of posts before were not thought out completely and expression of my emotion. So I took down some. But I have passed that haze and my writing will begin to show. I want this blog to be based on a 5 point structure.
1) To promote Rastafari Doctrine & Way of Life
2) To be a multimedia outlet for all arts combined
3) To promote discussion & eventually through forum
4) To bring together people spiritually
5) And most importantly promote world peace
Thank you for reading and hope you enjoy. In the near future I'm going to begin making videos so the poetry can be better understood. There is a lot of ancient philosophy and wisdom behind the influence of them.
Ok that is all for now. One Love.
