yes, I know many that do. And no, you don't have to live in a commune... The rainbow lifestyle is moving place to place, a commune is a place where people live together in one spot... what is a rainbow lifestyle to you? What is it that you think it is about?
Jah is the Rastafari way of referring to Jahovah, another word for a deity. Others may be able to give you more and better info than I, who am more into the goddess energy, and actually *bristle*, every time I hear a *masculine* name for a deity. Actually, if you really want to get down to it, I don't even believe in a deity; I do, however, believe in All That Is, that synchronicities are part of an ever-happening design that changes with our intentions, and that a male-dominated world isn't good for children and other living creatures. Not that I'm into female domination either -- I just try to raise consciousness in this area. I think, to get back to Jah, the reason that hippies find Jah so fascinating, is that the Rastifari smoke weed, it's part of their religion! They're the black brothers with the sometimes floor-length dreads and the black/yellow/green colors. You'll probably see some at a rainbow gathering. I think they're the ones who created the word "spleef". shi
Jah is not a word strictly for rastifarians. In the old testiment of the bible god was referred to as Jehovah. Jah means Jehovah and is another name for the Lord. The word "Hallelujah" is actually "Alleluia." The words mean "praise ye Jah".
