Ritual living. This is possibly the
most difficult hurdle to initially get over, even for
many Earthfolk. Most of us do not think that we live
a ritualized life. It is critical,
however, that you discern and grasp how you are presently
acting out rituals of the Warrior’s Quest.
For example, how you have been participating
in the ritual that enabled the imagining and actual
production and dropping of the Atomic Bomb—and
how you continue to make present the Warrior’s
Quest vision.
The ritual of
imagining, creating and dropping the Atom Bomb?
Me?
Yes, you.
When Earthfolk awoke,
we saw clearly that the iconic image of the Mushroom Cloud
gave rise to that of the militarized Spaceship Earth.
Within a heartbeat, we felt deeply moved by the presence
of Spaceship Earth as our Mother, the Living
Earth. As sojourning aliens we sensed that something
very profound had happened to the Warrior Quester
and to ourselves. The only way this began to make some
sense was coming to understand both of these new experiences as the
result of a history-making cultural transformation.
Both the Warrior Quester and we Earthfolk began to see and sense the
world in profoundly different and starkly contrasting
ways.
From our experiences with
personal rituals and with ceremonial religious rituals, we sensed that
something ritual, something on a vast, possibly cosmic
scale had occurred.
Having been raised within the Warrior's
Quest vision and imagination, we readily grasped that the dropping
of the Atomic Bomb was the fulfillment of the Warrior's
Quest dream of an apocalyptic end to the Earth. On
its own terms, the Warrior's Quest vision was imagined and actually
materialized as the Atom Bomb.
