I equate the aptitude of rastafarianism to that of the mental objective of Buddhists. I guess you can call it a religion like people call "Buddhism" a religion. It's simply a way of thinking or living that you try to hold true to, minus the diety and supposed universal truths. "Evra'tings gun'a be a'right." Optimism in its greatest light. People laugh at this sort've thing because they don't understand and are simply unable to relate to a non-conflicted environment. Too many people thrive on chaos and destruction. Death and despair. A lot of people link rastafarianism to smoking marijuana. The two are separate and related. You don't have to smoke weed to practice rasta. You don't have to be rasta, to smoke weed -- though you tend to get into that state of mind when you do, lol.

Yes. Mahayana Buddhism.
QUOTE
Some scholars believe that some portions of the Pali Canon and the Agamas could contain the actual substance of the historical teachings (and possibly even the words) of the Buddha.[14][15] This is not the case for the later Mahayana sutras.[16], although the roots of most of the main Mahayana teachings can be found in "early" Buddhism. The fact is that no one knows for certain what the Buddha taught, so Mahayana doctrines have as much validity for their followers as the "early" teachings have for their adherents.

QUOTE
Just what and who that Buddha was, and the range of his teachings, is of course a matter of interpretation and belief: was the Buddha a great man (basically human), or an earthly projection of a higher cosmic being who fills space and time (as many Mahayana Buddhists believe)? No historical research can prove such a point either way.

Maybe one day people will "worship" Bob Marley. Oh wait, we already do. Reggae fest anyone?
