Taxiarches, Thessaloniki Ceremony

Taxiarches, Thessaloniki

You have managed to find a very sacred site within your city. Most churches are built on particular ley lines within the Earth. Maybe Christianity thought it could wipe out paganism, but it was following paganism. Christianity was built upon the celebration of life which was paganism. Perhaps the religious leaders thought the humans were having too much fun. They were too immersed in the sensual pleasures of life and they needed to believe in suffering. So they created the mythological stories of the suffering on the cross and they tried to instill guilt. You know that sometimes you can feel guilty about enjoying your life. Particularly, if you are well off during these times of economic crisis in your country, there might be an element of guilt when you choose to satisfy your desires thinking about your fellow man that is suffering. So what happens, more suffering shows up around the world. What is the purpose of guilt? To make you recall how blessed you are. What we want each of you to do as you visit the church is to give your guilt back to the religious leaders. Give it back to the leader, let them feel a bit of that responsibility that they have toward the citizens. You all must know that your structure of religion in this country has a great deal of wealth and maybe it is time for them to put a hand out to the citizens that are suffering. Of course we do not come here to criticize them, we come here to expose them so that maybe they can feel a bit of that original sin guilt and they can give a bit more to those that are suffering in the city.

Meditation exercise

You go into the church and you look around and you think about anything you have felt guilty about in your life. Anytime, anything that brought you that sense of suffering from guilt and you are going to let it go out from the bottom of your feet in a counter clockwise direction. Very simple: find it, feel it and release it.
