## The Lorica of Creation Spirituality In the Name of Christ Jesus, I rise from the ashes of Ignorance, I break the chains of Attachment, I quench the fires of Aversion, Pride, and Envy and walk the narrow way of Light and life. By the Power of the Spirit, I grow in faith, I quicken to life everlasting, I awaken my watchful mind, I know I am not alone I flower in Wisdom. I turn from the shadowed path to walk in the Kingdom of our Father. I arise in faith through the God found in wonder and nature, by the One met in silence and letting go, the Creator with whom we give birth, In the Healer, combating suffering and injustice. On the Path of Bliss, I am a word of God, spoken in Awe and Wonder, On the Path of Silence, I am the echo of the Voice, empty of self and form. On the Path of Creation, I am an Artist, who co-creates the world. On the Path of Change, I am Unity and Praise, the voice and hand of justice. Everything changes, not just me, and there is an end to suffering. Christ, the Divine Imagination, cover me with your wings. The Word with me, the Word on my right, the Word on my left, the Word before me, the Word behind me, the Word beneath me, the Word above me, the Word in me. The Word in the ear of all who hear me, The Word in the eye of all who see me, The Word in the mind of all you think of me, The Word in all my thoughts, The Word in all my acts. Today, I arise, Through the Wonder, Emptiness, Creativity, and Glory, of the One in whom we live, move, and have our being. Amen.
