23. Definition of Rastafarianism : a religious
movement among black Jamaicans that
teaches the eventual redemption of blacks
and their return to Africa, employs the
ritualistic use of marijuana, forbids the
cutting of hair, and venerates Haile
Selassie as a god
The principle ritual of Rastafari is the smoking
of ganja, or cannabis. Among the names that
Rastas give to the plant are callie, Iley, "the
herb", "the holy herb", "the grass", and "the
weed". In addition to smoking it, Rastas also
ingest cannabis in a tea, as a spice in cooking,
and as an ingredient in medicine. Cannabis is
usually smoked during groundings; some
Rastas smoke it almost all of the time, a view
that other practitioners regard as excessive.
However, not all Rastas use ganja, explaining
that they have already achieved a higher level
of consciousness and thus do not require it.
24. • Ratafarians usually have dreadlocks, also
called locs, dreads. It’s a famous Rastafarian
hairstyle.
