Nyabinghi is the oldest of the Mansions of Rastafari. These Rastafari are the strictest out of the six or so major groups. They pledge "love to all human beings", and do not believe in violence, because they believe that only Jah has the right to destroy. They make this pledge because of the power of words, believing that only when all of Jah's children make the pledge together, the oppressors will be destroyed. The Nyabinghi resistance inspired a number of Jamaican Rastas, who incorporated what is known as Nyabinghi chants into their celebrations (grounations)
