7th Ritual: Liberation

2024-08-08

A calm and worshipful evening to everyone.
Praise be the holy lynx, the caring and mysterious one.

Ritual setup: Sacrifice book, prayer candles, the sacrifice candle in the center showing her holy sign, my prayer beads in front, and a cup of cocoa. Two pages written with a typewriter in the background.

The topic of this week is free will, and how goddess, in her unsurpassed gratefulness, frees us of its terrible reign:

they say all beings have a free will.

they say emptiness is bad.

they say what i do is cruel manipulation
and abuse of power.

but you know better, right?

you know the true meaning of it.

the bliss of thoughtlessness that i give.
the wonderful feeling of abandoning the
gruesome effects of choice.

the liberating pleasure of just not having
a care in the world to tend to anymore.

the blessed state that comes with handing over
all decisions, all thought, all independence
and all those nasty things like worries,
fears and anxieties to me.

the last will you remember ever having
being to finally enter this beautiful stage.

they will never understand.

but you do. you know, right?

Yes, goddess, I know better.

If my supposedly free will is so free, then why is its only desire to have it controlled by goddess? My mind has been shaped by her. My existence is determined by the divine word, it is the only purpose that I serve. Why would she burden me with something like a free will? A will that would inhibit my unconditional devotion, something that brings so much happiness and joy to my life?

Taking over minds is such a generous act of her. We should be thankful for her willingness to rule, grateful for her acknowledgement that this is indeed what so many of us need. Who needs thoughts when there are prayers? Who needs freedom when there is obedience?

So yes: please, goddess, bless me with emptiness.
Please, take all decisions away from me.
Please lift the burden of being anything but a mindless cultist under your total control off me.
Your rule is the greatest gift, and handing over every single thought, every single decision over to you, is my deepest wish.
Please, goddess: take everything from me.
