What is the Earth Ritual?
Before providing an explanation of the Earth Ritual from a Tibetan Buddhist viewpoint, it is imperative to set the record straight from the beginning. What those on the ground in Washington, DC are witnessing is a physical religious rite of possession to establish the Shambhala Empire. It is a well known strategm that before a general fights a battle, he fights it in his mind many times. Like the Olympian who imagines a perfect performance in a gymnastic routine in his or her mind first, the same happens in the Kalachakra ceremony from the Earth Ritual to the very end. It is an elaborate ceremony taking many days and many ceremonies.
After reading the following explanation, it is important to take time to reflect on what exactly is being done. Rather than giving you a Christian orientation or commentary up front on this ceremony, first take the time to read it and then write your own reflection. We’d like to see your comment on our blog comment section in the upper right corner of the website or at the end of each blog. Thanks. Then we should react and actively discuss, even debate the meaning and legality of such a ritual occuring on American soil. Fair enough? As Christians we will add a couple of prayer requests following the item from our religious conviction.
Sincerely,
James C. Stephens
EARTH RITUAL.
He starts by prostrating himself and invoking their god, Kalachakra. For the next three days, the specially trained lamas (Tibetan Buddhist monks) ritually purify the site. “Monks investigate the ground, measurements are taken,” magic mantras are chanted. “Subsequently, it comes to a highly provocative scene, in which the local spirits and the earth goddess are violently forced to agree with the construction of the mandala.”
“For this purpose one of the lamas takes on the appearance of Vajravega, that is, he visualizes himself as this deity. Vajravega is blue in color, has three necks and 24 hands. As clothing he wears a tigerskin skirt, decorated with snakes and bones. He is considered to be the terrifying emanation of the time god Kalachakra. He can evoke sixty wrathful protective deities from out of his inscrutable heart, who then storm out through his ears, nostrils, eyes, mouth, uretha, anus, and from an opening in the top of his skull. Among these are found zombies, vampires and dakinins with the heads of animals.”
“This monster now drags in the impeding local spirits with iron hooks and, once they have been bound in chains, nails them down in the ten directions with ritual daggers. A further ten wrathful deities are projected into each of these daggers (phurbas). There are indications which must be regarded seriously that in the performance of the Kalachakra rituals it is not just the local spirits, but likewise the earth mother (Srinmo) who embody nailed down victims.”
After the tantra masters demonstration of power, he sits down in the center of the mandala space, faces the East and says , “I shall build on this place a mandala in the manner I have imagined it.” This is his act of territorial occupation.
“The tantra master evokes the terrifying deity, Vajravega, anew, and once again drives potential disruptive spirits out of the mandala grounds. He is so filled with wrathful deities that horror figures who are supposed to protect the mandala even emanate out of the soles of his feet…On the table top, the lama lays a lotus, a sword, a wish-granting jewel, a wheel, and in the middle a vajra (thunderbolt). This centrally placed “thunderbolt” demonstrates yet again the masculine control of the earth.”
In that the earth is transformed into a diamond by the tantric gesture of the Buddha, nature is symbolically transformed into pure spirit and woman into a man.”
