The function of ritual, as I understand it, is to give form to human life, not in the way of a more surface arrangement, but in depth.*
Joseph Campbell

Awake to the story of being here and enter
the quiet
immensity of your own presence …
Respond to the call of your gift and
the courage to follow its path.**
John O’Donohue

Our worldviews and rituals look a lot like religion,
Full of beliefs and practises that cover all elements
of our lives,
Most of all, making it possible to be present to
our own immensity – that which resonates from the core of our being, what
Joseph Campbell named our bliss, whilst we are also
present to the immensity of all that is beyond us and around us;
We don’t find religion,
We make it.
