Anoint the candle with
vegetable oil and roll it in powdered ginger. Light the candle
and meditate on the movement of its flame. Watch as it dances,
flickers, and revels in activity. Visualize yourself as a flame.
Watch as you grow bright, move, reach, and twirl in the air.
There is nothing indifferent or apathetic about you. You are
fire. You are energy in its rawest power. With the image fixed
firmly in your mind, chant:
Dancing
Flame, rawest Power
Free me of indifference, sour.
Bring compassion to my soul
And grant conviction of my goals.
Instill interest, fervor, and devotion,
Confidence and true emotion.
And as I trod life's path each day
Let me help others on their way.
Let the
candle burn completely.
Apathy
Relief Tea
Use two tablespoons of dried peppermint leaves to one
cup of boiling water. As the tea steeps, chant:
Add
excitement, herb of spice,
Restore my interest in this life.
Indifference, please, now chase away,
Remove this villain now, I say.
Drink
the tea hot. Sweeten with honey if you like.
