:: Reggae Rasta Should Not::

 
Reggae and Rasta
In Indonesia, almost always identified with reggae rasta. In fact, reggae and Rasta are actually two different things. "Reggae is a music genre name, whereas the Rasta or Rastafari stands is a choice way of life, way of life," said Ras Mohammed (23), reggae musician who was 12 years pursue the world of reggae in New York and an adherent of the teachings of Rasta philosophy. Fuss, behind the frenetic and the excitement that brought reggae, there is a stigma attached to music fans. And stigma are also attached to the Rasta philosophy itself. "Here, fans of reggae music, or often mistakenly called the Rastafarians, identified with marijuana suckers and life style at will, without a goal," said Mohammed Ras whose original name of this Egar. In fact, the real Rasta philosophy actually teach a person to live a clean, orderly, and has principles and a clear purpose in life. Rasta adherents actually refuse to drink alcohol, eat meat, and even smoked a cigarette. "The members of The Wailers (Bob Marley's original band) no smoking. Smoking violates the teachings of Rastafari," said Ras.
Reveal race, not all fans are adherents of rasta reggae, and conversely, not all believers have to like the song rasta reggae. Identified with the rasta reggae since Bob Marley-bearer to the world music genre is a Rasta adherents.
Ras added that one proof that the reggae community in Indonesia is largely unfamiliar with the teachings of Rastafari is the lack of understanding of the basic things of that philosophy. "For example, when I asked them about Marcus Garvey and Haile Selassie, they do not know. In fact it is the two main characters in the teachings of Rastafari," said the young man her long hair in a turban menggelung this.Musician Tony Q Rastafara also recognize, though he uses the name Rastafara frills, but he was not a Rasta adherents. Tony tried to understand the teachings of Rastafari which according to him can be squeezed into a philosophy of nature, which loves peace. "What I just follow the peace loving it," said Tony who did not want to touch the marijuana was.However, though not understand and run the whole philosophy of Rastafari, reggae fans and players in Indonesia claimed to get something behind the music that they love it. Typically, starting from loved reggae music (and lyrics of his songs), the fans then became interested in studying and teaching philosophy that lies behind it.
As acknowledged Moses Billy Hendry, guitarist Papa Rasta group from Yogyakarta, who claimed to reggae music reinforced his hatred of injustice and abuse of authority. Each ticket the police, he prefers to argue than the "peace". "The problem is not the money, but this practice was unfair," said Moses who claims often followed strangers buying cigarettes at midnight because of mistaken want to buy marijuana.While Steven admits that he became more sensible way of looking at life since wrestle reggae music. Reggae music, especially Bob Marley popularized, according to Steven, preach peace, justice, and nonviolence. "So we rebelled against injustice, but not antikemapanan. If reggae grow, then in Indonesia there will be no war. Indonesia will smile with reggae," Steven said confidently.
Sila and Joni from Bali asserted, should not be a true Rasta look identical to the style of Bob Marley. "True Rasta is in the heart," said Sila while clenching his right hand to pat his chest.
