A Note From Ras Ber I
These words were not just spoken for yesterday. They were spoken for now — for this moment in human history when the choice between material greed and spiritual integrity has never been more urgent or more clear.
His Imperial Majesty understood what the greatest sages of every tradition have always known — that inner calm, moral discipline and spiritual power are not luxuries. They are necessities. They are the very foundation upon which lasting abundance must be built.
This is why the teachings of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I are a foundation pillar of Lion Power Abundant Living.
Jah Rastafari Iyesus Kristos Haile I Selassie I." — Ras Ber I
On Material and Spiritual Progress
The following words of His Imperial Majesty speak directly to the heart of what Lion Power Abundant Living seeks to embody — the inseparable union of spiritual depth and practical, material flourishing.
"Knowing that material and spiritual progress are essential to man, we must ceaselessly work for the equal attainment of both. Only then shall we be able to acquire that absolute inner calm so necessary to our well-being.
Whenever conflict arises between material and spiritual values, the conscience plays an important role and anyone who suffers from a guilty conscience is never really free from this problem until he makes peace with himself and his conscience
Discipline of the mind is a basic ingredient of genuine morality and therefore of spiritual strength. Spiritual power is the eternal guide, in this life and the life after, for man ranks supreme among all creatures. Led forward by spiritual power, man can reach the summit destined for him by the Great Creator
It is our conviction that all the activities of the children of men, which are not guided by the Spirit and counsel of God will bear no lasting fruits; they will not be acceptable in the sight of God. The grace of God is Eternal. Angels in Heaven and the Creation on Earth sing His Praise. We thank the Master of the world Almighty God. Power belongs to God. May God Our Creator, the Helper and Guiding Light of us all grant you His Wisdom that you may bear fruits for His Glory."
