To redeem means you go back and do a self-corrective process in order to remember that you are a spiritual being in human form, rather than a little person who belonged to your mother and father. Often, people have to go to therapy or growth groups, or have a practice of self-reflection and meditation to work through the psychological wounds they have taken on. The process of becoming a practical mystic is a self-corrective course to get back in touch with who we really are and what we are here to do and be, which is to reshape and change this world into the ideal that it was intended to be. We are here to bring heaven to earth. A great principle or power lies behind every desired quality or possibility.
Invocation is active prayer, cocreative prayer.
Many think of it as the prayer for the coming age. In the past, we have prayed, but this has been an emotional appeal, more of a plea of helplessness, that a Higher Power come into our lives and do both its and our parts. Invocation is how practical mystics pray, recognizing that we are co-creative, stating that we are ready and anxious to do our part. Knowing we don't have the power to create these high qualities and desired changes apart from our Creator, we invoke them and then make a commitment to enact them. This is a powerful commitment, and it requires the courage and conviction of a true adventurer, a seeker of wisdom, love, and dynamic spiritual will.
