Ritual

There's nothing wrong with ritual.


True ritual has power when it is truly benefitting the user.


It is only a tool to move the user into a position of intention, of will, of power, of synchronicity....


Ritual has no power in and of itself. Anything that moves a person closer to their intention, anything that 'sets the stage', 'clears ego', clears the mind', 'opens the doorway'.... anything that moves a person into the "ready" position - is a ritual.


"Going thru the motions" of ritual has no power, because it has no meaning to the user.


If you need a ritual, use it. Shamelessly.


If you do not need a ritual, then go straight to it. There are no rules.


There is only goal - Manifestation.



Can ritual invite 'unsavory energy'? "Other" energy, evil energy...? Of course. But so can indifference. Again, the "evil" is not in ritual, it is in the heart of the user. Whether intentionally or ignorantly, yes - a person can "gather" bad energy thru ritual.


Again - true ritual can move a user into a proper posture, a proper position to move into awareness rather than ego.


The "good" power of ritual is used to access awareness, the inate godness that is in everyone. "Good" ritual is never used to "summon" another power - for there is only one "power".


It is internal, personal intention that 'flavors' power towards good or evil.


The highly aware person knows that the concept of "external forces" is ridiculous if "all is one". The ONE, comes from within, not from 'out there'. The "one" within is also just as "one" with all the energy of the universe that is outside the shell of our bodies.


In any case, it is intention that carries the power. With or without ritual, intention is the power.


Indifference can be very powerful! Bad intentions can be very powerful, and manifest what some may call "evil energies" or even "demons"...


Fear, depression, selfishness, denial.... all find a place to bed down inside of us, and this is where indifference becomes dangerous. Indifference allows emotion to manifest in the form of disease, poverty, tragedy, misfortune...


This is why many times, more and more often, "remedies" don't work to cure illness. Even holistic, natural remedies. Because people have left out the core of true healing - intention. The internal being must be addressed. The internal soul, spirit, awareness of every being is all that is real. Everything else is just a tool. Humanity has the cart before the horse. We mistake the equipment for the soul. We treat the equipment, the tool, the vehicle and neglect the soul who lives inside. Therefore, ultimate healing is more and more often never realized.





We've no where else to go now. We've come to the wall. There's nothing left to hide behind. Not surgeries or drugs or even suplements and healthy lifestyles... We've canceled everything out with indifference and backward intention.... And now we squirm.


The only relief, the only "way out", is to acknowledge and deal with the true being of each living soul.
