I was afraid to be rigid and bossy. So I said the minimum and the necessary.
I didn't specify what I wanted to happen or what I expected people to do.
This in the previous times and during ceremony.
I just said the minimum and necessary. Diet, intention, process.
But I realised people is really different and some people need further instructions and redundance.
One thing was the circle and place of each one of us around the fire. We must remain in the circle and preserve our place no matter what. And silence and respect for eachothers journeys.
It wasn't funny to go around the vast island locating people to check they were ok and safe.
Also, being redundant about being respectful for the forces of nature and the place we are using and accessing. For example one of the guys scared a herd of horses without even noticing and that was a message.
The guy was treading around with earphones..... Because I wasn't strict enough to prohibit such things. He didn't even noticed what he did but it could have ended really bad.
Imagine suddenly hear a stampede coming at you...
Don't leave the circle.
That would sum up.
Then of course one has to come clean, with a minimum diet and a clear intention.
Knowing that we are commiting audacities in spiritual realms and not being foolish or arrogant.
Earphones is a don't.
Food is a don't.
And I would say cannabis is another don't...
I never did cannabis but I wouldn't even dare to mix those two. I've seen people doing it and I don't think it helps
