Power Paradigm #2: The Ritual is a call to action and a way of life. In response to: The Ritual is just a ceremony we do once or twice a year. I may be wrong, but I believe the great Ed King (Sigma Chi) started us down this road many years ago. He wrote and then spoke about the “Secret Thoughts of a Ritual.” More recently, the North American Interfraternity Conference, through its UIFI program, pushed this further with its focus on “living your ritual.” Or, “how can your Ritual be your ritual.” The basic message is this: the Ritual contains the teachings of the fraternity/sorority, and are meant to not only be heard, but internalized. It is typically performed as a ceremony in order to give life and power to the values it conveys, but the values should be lived on a daily basis. The Ritual books deserve study and examination and we serve our fraternities well by adopting the Ritual teachings as habits.
