3.) Rastafarian Formation,Pilgrimage, and Image.

The Rastafarian's live an “Ital” or a natural way of life. Although the Rastafarian's smoke marijuana, they don't use any other substances. Marijuana was is not for recreational purposes by the Rastafarian's. The use of Ganja or marijuana goes along with this Ital way of living and it is used in everyday life for different things. For example: they sprinkle a little ganja on their food as herbs,or some smoke it while having intellectual conversations, and they use it for meditation. The Rastafarian's do not eat any processed foods and many create their own herbal remedies rather than receiving medical attention.
I've included a picture of a Rastafarian Ital dish. Vegetable and Fish soup.
