CHAPTER

Paradoxism Is a Powerful Embracing of Reality

In a shadow ritual, one must find one of the left hand contents and give it expression in some way that does not damage the right hand personality. A symbolic or ceremonial ritual affects one as much as any event as long as it means something for you. Even animals can pick up under power we have hidden in the shadow. All healthy societies have a rich ceremonial life to pay out their shadow through fasting, sacrifice, sexual abstention, etc. We must acknowledge the whole of reality, destruction and creation, evil and redemption. Our fondness for the light blinds us to the greater reality and keeps us from this larger vision of wholeness.
