Another theme in the biography is Rastafarianism. Merging and blending well with Marley's concentration on spiritual elements, Rastafarianism is an important part of his life. However, Marley was not raised as a Rasta nor was his wife Rita. In fact, Rita was a Sunday School teacher for the local Christian church when she met Marley. However, when Saile Helassie visits Jamaica in 1966, Marley is out of town visiting his mother Cedella when he is in Jamaica. Rita happens to connect eyes with Helassie as he is being driven through Kingston and this single moment will change her life and Marley's forever.
