The Holy Piby

"The Holy Piby" by Robert Athlyi Rogers is a spiritual book offering a fresh look at religious teachings, focusing on freedom and strength for those of Ethiopian heritage. Centered around unity, personal responsibility, and fairness, the book tells the story of Shepherd Athlyi, chosen by God to guide the Ethiopian people to freedom and understanding. Divided into books, the narrative explores creation, the part played by Jesus Christ, and the need for Ethiopians to reconnect with their origins. Promoting love and unity, Athlyi urges his followers to be hardworking, just, and faithful. The text creates a unique religious identity different from traditional Christianity, stating that the future of Ethiopia's descendants depends on following the holy laws given through Athlyi and his followers, especially Marcus Garvey, a leading voice in the movement to empower African people.
