Be aware of rituals. They can be as much of a crutch as special
objects or any other item outside of yourself to which you give power. When you do so, you forget that the Power lies
within you. Anything external is simply
icing—at times sweet, but unnecessary.
Think about your rituals and props. Does the idea of being without them strike
fear in your heart? What have we told
you about that heart? It is the greatest
gauge of Truth. Fear in this area
indicates misalignment with Truth. The
Force truly is always with you. If you
attempt to give it away (which is impossible) by focusing on external things,
you are merely doing your Self a disservice.
