Rituals

What is ritual?

Ritual is a formal procedure of expression that commonly depends upon the participation of a certain number of people. It developed during the period that preceded language or speech. Men began communicating with each other, in much the same way that other pack animals do – wolves, dogs and so on – and those primitive “strophes” (Greek for a turn in a dance) can still have a powerful effect upon human consciousness. Like a chorus in a Greek Tragedy, the celebrants of a ritual work like a team of expert cooks preparing a royal banquet. Each one has his allotted task – greens, meat, cakes, gravy – but all the contributory tasks are presided over by a “master of ceremonies” or “chorus leader” in order to move towards the noble end result.
