Must be that synchronicity thing.
"The principle behind any ritual of the white magical nature is to so configure the stimuli which reach down into the trunk of mind that this arrangement causes the generation of disciplined and purified emotion or love which then may be both protection and the key to the gateway to intelligent infinity."
I feel there is much to be learned from just a few lines of text.
As always I would be glad to offer my 'spin' on what Ra attempted to communicate, but would be even happier to hear your own opinions on this wonderful quote.
I was able to experience intelligent infinity by learning to express reality within the Illusion.
The ritual represents working consciously with the unconscious, as Ra has suggested.
How I did this is of no real consequence, albeit so say that there are apparantly many ways to do acheive these results.
I personally used drugs to enter a trance state. I had been working with this intent with several organic and chemical compounds to achieve the ideal medatative mind set.
I found that objects and thought forms that carried a strong sense of meaning for me personally aided in the 'tuning' of the channel.
Things that carry a strong emotional charge - calling cards.
The rituals empower these 'calling cards' and attract spiritual mass.
They are the 'stimuli' that reach down to the core of the emotions that cry out or call. I had 'configured the stimuli' as Ra points out.
The rituals I used involved crystals and objects that had 'found me' through unusual and magical ways.
This was my initial motivation for seeking the gateway - the synchronicital nature of events entered my consciousness and made me aware of the possibilities of magical workings.
Edit to add: objects
