#PERSIAN MAGIC FLOWERS SERIES#
It is a progressive series of working events. The first phase of magical initiation takes place in the process of daily training. One of the most powerful environments for magical work is the traditional Persian or One of the most powerful environments for magical work is the traditional Persian or Mazdan garden. If there is a local Occidental Temple of the Wise Lord, the presiding clergy should always make the temple space and fire available to any dedicated Mazdan for spiritual work. Over time the environment will take on its own sacred character shielded from all profane and daevic forces. Of course you should have a home-altar, which can be in any room of the house, or better yet have a room dedicated to holy purposes. For our purposes you should find such places close by where it would be possible to conduct your workings. Yasnas and other holy work were done in places in nature marked by their beauty and sacred feeling. In the most archaic age of the religion founded by Zarathustra, people did not worship in temples at all. Generally the most suitable places for magical operations are 1) significant locations in nature, 2) at the home altar, 3) in a sanctified temple of the Mazdan Way, 4) in a garden space. In the performance of magic the environment in which the work takes place can be of great importance.

Avestan manthras are to be spoken aloud in a clear and ringing voice, the Pahlavi formulas are recited in a lower voice, while English words are to be whispered or merely thought. In general it can be said that the Avestan manthras and the Pahlavi formulas fuel the fire and open the gateway to the realm of menog, thus making the specific working of the individual more effective. However, results will be more forceful with the use of the sacred manthras in Avestan and the use of Pahlavi in certain formulas. It is possible to perform the rituals of original magic using English only. Here we will consider some traditional ways that this format can be expanded and tailored to individual needs. During the training outlined in chapter 4 you learned the most basic form of magical ritual.
These rituals exist either as whole workings or as frameworks for individual workings. In this chapter we will present a series of rituals or magical operations.
