A
world in which humans are conscious, living with reverence and walking
in sacredness upon the Earth.
Rev.
Jacquie Riker
Ceremony and Ritual opens us to the All That Is, Omni. It is "Embracing Our Authentic Self!" When humans engage in ceremony and ritual, in a group or individually, there is a connection made to an ancient field of consciousness; a sacred space is created as a gateway to this energy. By consistant connection to these fields each person or group becomes a bridge between Heaven and Earth; the individual heart opens thereby creating an environment for all human hearts to open and expand . . . accessing this is our mission
Ceremony is as ancient and enduring as humankind, and transcends time.
Ritual is common to all cultures, and therefore transcends all boundaries
and is universal. Invoking and walking in the sacred is the language that
needs no words, therefore is understood by the hearts of all people.
Sun Bear, a Chippewa medicine man spoke these words: " When humans participate in ceremony, they enter a sacred space. Everything outside of that space fades in importance. Time takes on a different dimension. Emotions flow more freely. The bodies of participants become filled with the energy of life, and this energy reaches out and blesses the creation around them. All is made new; everything becomes sacred."
Here we recall that there is no separation, there is no us and no them
- only the WE - in the revealing of the eternal "All That Is"
which dwells within each of us. |
