Rastafarian's did not fear the "Babylon" system & did and continue to do things not to follow the dictations of the western society that states what's wrong and right & gives people rules to live by. By doing this people are brainwashed to a certain degree.....this is what Rasta's despise - FREEDOM is what they crave & sieze.
Dreadlocks is a form of statement to say Rasta's will look a certain way - do the things they want to do and breaking from the dictations of what should be done according to one person's narrow point of view.
It's much deeper than dreadlocks, rebellion, statement - it's become a Rastaman's identity.
"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds" Bob Marley
There are many religions who dread, but the Rastas take certain Bible references like the Nazerene vow very seriously. Samson and Jesus were Nazerites; a Nazerite takes a vow to not touch the fruit of the grape, nor cut or comb the hair or come in contact with the dead -- even a loved one who's passed. The Nazerite vow is a 100 day vow, but many Rastas make it a lifelong commitment.
The vow is not a requirement of Rasta religion, but supporting Bible verses state that only the Nazerites can speak directly to God (or Jah) and only the Nazerites can enter the kingdom of heaven. Rastas who dread believe that come Judgment Day, Jah will drag his hand across the land, and the dreads of the righteous will tangle in his fingers and be lifted to the promised land.
The vow of the Nazerites come from the Old Testament, so can be considered common to the Jewish, Christian and Rasta faiths alike.
