We are those who obey strict moral and divine laws, based on the Mosaic tenet: (1) We strongly object to sharp implements used in the desecration of the figure of Man, e. g., trimming and shaving, tattooing of the skin, cuttings of the flesh.
(5) We disapprove and abhor utterly hate, jealousy, envy, deceit, guile, treachery, etc.
(8 ) Our duty is to extend the hand of charity to any brother in distress, firstly for he is of the Rastafari order - secondly to any human, animals, plants, etc., likewise.
(10) Thou shall give no thought to the aid, titles and possessions that the enemy in his fear may seek to bestow on you; resolution to your purpose is the love of Rastafari."
