Rituals are training
aids.  They are quite useful for those
who enjoy ceremony or need reminders of Truth, but for those who fully know Who
and What they are, no ceremonies are necessary. 
For one who does not know how to light a fire, he might first dance in a
circle, erect an elaborately placed pile of twigs, and sing and pray around it,
thinking all of this is necessary to produce a flame.  One who understands the nature of fire could
just as easily step up, strike a match, and produce the same result.

Examine your rituals.  We are not telling you they are right or
wrong or advising you to get rid of them. 
We are telling you that the flame is already within you.  To produce a result, you need merely set the
intention and light the spark.  The power
lies in the intention, not in the ritual.
