Abba Keddus: Rastafari and the Return of Our Sacred Origins

by Tyson Brown

ABBA KEDDUS 'Rastafari and the Return of our Sacred Origins' is a new approach to the phenomenon of the Rastafari movement. It explores the monastic and monarchial heritage of the Ethiopian Tewado faith and provides a synthesis between this ancient African institution and the classical traits of Rastafari culture. At the root of this book is the idea of a sacred moment of 'origins' or 'beginnings' of humanity, that is now about to re-manifest in the present time under the mystical revelation of Rastafari.
