Orisa Lifestyle Motto: Live the Medicine


Cultivating your Personal Priesthood is the ultimate spiritual challenge. Your personal priesthood basically means that you internalize the teachings and practice them in everything you do. Based on my experience working with thousands of people I have learned that without a personal priesthood, your practice will never develop beyond "monkey see, monkey do." I think you will agree with me when I say that your life's mission is not to merely acquire ritual objects, accumulate initiations and wear beads. Your mission is to discover that particular combination of elements that will bring out the very best in you and enable you to consistently achieve peak performance, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.  You will know what brings out the best in you by the way it heals your life and the lives of the people you serve. Historically, the Western attempts to explain, study, analyze and define have produced real material changes. However, these same efforts also tend to compromise spiritual development. In fact, the more tightly we cling to the Western approach to development, the more limited we become. Fortunately, there is a growing movement of men and women who are drawn to the pathway of greater possibilities. These people are committed to habits associated with transformation and restoration. Many of them understand that Orisa Lifestyle promotes these habits through its liturgy, its arts and its ritual structure.

PHASES OF PERSONAL PRIESTHOOD
Before you do anything else, complete this Personal Survey. Each of the teachings featured on this site will guide you through three phases of spiritual development: 
  1. Stories raise AWARENESS, shape your identity, help you remember and create shared values. 
  2. Activities capture emotion, bring you into harmony with yourself and others. They also help you INTERNALIZE the lessons. 
  3. Symbols organize primal energy, concentrate collective consciousness and magnify personal instincts. They also help you to EMBODY the teachings.
