"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.

About the Edit Unto Your's
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~
UPDATE AS OF 7/19/14 (PURPOSE DRIVEN MESSAGE)
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.

House Music Gave Way to Recognition
Man for the years I spent caught up in the EDM and rave scene I tried to stay as loyal as I could. I was no old school raver and I came in on it on the rebirth. But damn was it like a smack to the face of like where the hell have I been the whole time? This was my scene. This was what is was all about in the end. Let go of all rules and stereotypes and lets get high and dance to this. People were jumping on board left and right to it. I was turned onto electronic music through trance music. Trance was some of the origination and oldest type of electronic music out there. But it led me to house music and what dance music was really all about. House music was the funkiest most uplifting genre in the scene. It was dance music at its soul for any other genre could be mixed upon a house beat. House music is built upon that constant beat, that's its foundation. It raised out of Chicago's underground scene and spread to the entire world. And overtime it ventured its popularity back into the states. It gave me a spark of passion to see all types of people coming together to just dance and celebrate. So I made myself learn how to shuffle and feel the vibe that just looked fascinating. It was a movement from the people, the true renegades of funk era seemed to find a revive in spirit. But it was being enjoyed under all systematic regulation and the spirit of the people was always being confined. It seemed like a perfect environment to present societal proposal in change, but that never got ventured in for it was only being sold as an event for escape. But I saw a purpose in the hearts of a new generation. A purpose to create a nation that entailed more love and peace. The power of the people was all there, it just need some direction to go along with it. So house music would seem supportive in finding direction on the peace and love that had been instilled in me. I was taking a break from festivals and trying to bring my journey back into role. But I wanted it to be fun, purposeful, exciting, adventureful and a door to endless opportunity for whoever deemed it necessary. A sweet disposition that rendered itself upon recognition.
