UNDERSTANDING THE RITUAL PEACE ARCHIVES

 

 

You will notice as you read into The Ritual Peace Archives that it includes some strange spellings, archaic language, Capitalizations that break grammar rules, and other anomalies. This is because I faithfully transcribe what Tribe de Cumbria gives me, with all of those things included, whether or not it will be perceived as ‘correct’ or ‘proper.’

 

For instance, certain words are almost always capitalized: Great All, Sacred, Knowing, the self/Self (indicating the mortal self with a small ‘s’ and the eternal Self with a capital ‘S.’). Within the Illuminations, you will also find that the main point, or phrase, or word, contained within will be capitalized. As for the archaic and strange language, I can only contribute this to the day’s speakers. Some have previously incarnated. Some have not. They each have their own way of talking to me, and they each use their own examples based, I believe, on their own life experiences.

 

The Tribe does not put one message above another. Each is rendered through me to serve a purpose and to speak specifically, in a moment, to one person. Yes—one person. The Tribe considers each of us precious, valuable, and important. If you are reading an Illumination and think to your self that it seems to be written with just you in mind, it probably is. Sit with that idea if you must. You, who are here reading what The Tribe has communicated, is part of the family. We are all both individual and indivisible. Together and unique.

 

You will see self and Self used together and separately. The little ‘self’ is usually referring to who we are when we are busy being mortal, and the large ‘Self’ is usually referring to who we are as eternal entities. Neither one is more important. Both are valued. And, be ever mindful that the transcriber—Me—is busy being human and fallible. Errors you might find are probably my fault. The Tribe speaks clearly, more clearly as the years pass, but I must eat, sleep, focus, sit in a chair, work until my eyes are blurry, etc., etc. I make mistakes.

 

To maximize your benefit while perusing the archives, be patient and kind, with the cosmos, The Tribe, me, and your self/Self. We mean only to be helpful, and you will take away only what you accept and can use. Let that be enough.

 

Welcome. We’re glad you’re/You’re here . . .

Our Best Wishes,

C. D. Flynn and Tribe de Cumbria
