How does Rastafarianism view the concept of God?

Rastafarianism views the concept of God as one that is both personal and mystical. The religion is monotheistic and believes in the existence of a single deity, who is often referred to as Jah or Jah Rastafari.

For Rastafarians, Jah is not just a distant creator but a living, personal force that is present in all things. They believe that Jah is present in all human beings and that it is the duty of each person to work towards realizing their inner divinity.

Rastafarians believe that Jah is both immanent and transcendent. They see Jah as a divine force that is present in the world and is actively involved in the affairs of human beings. At the same time, they believe that Jah is beyond human understanding and cannot be fully grasped by the human mind.

Rastafarians also reject the traditional Christian view of God as a white, European figure. Instead, they believe that Jah is a universal force that transcends all races and cultures. They see Jah as a black African king who will one day lead his people to freedom.
