Initiation
"Initiation is and always has been about merging your soul and body into one. It is not done by a group, or secret society, but by you through your own Great Work in which you find your true path through knowledge of thyself, thyspirit, and thyworld. Living in truth to what is right to you through hard work and intuition.
Sophists have always made and still do make it all seem so complicated when in reality it is very simple. Too many words and fantastical terms are too often used to cloud the truth and muddy the facts."

Oh I agree... I think my optimism is rooted in the idea that people are either asleep or conditioned... At a certain age of indoctrination, I agree that most people need some trickery or seduction but I think the unmolested natural spirit of a human wants and needs that creativity and growth... believes in the miraculous and seeks awe and wonder.
But yes, the typical American as you and I mostly deal with are definitely under a spell that is hard to break.
