Ramkht

The Ramkht Protocol

The House of the Dreaming has designed The Ramkht Protocol, a distinguished system of behavior, inspired on the traditional roles of the priest, the monk and the leader. The Ramkht Protocol places emphasis on respect, education, etiquette, duty, and service.

The Seven Principles of the Ramkht

  1. Demonstrate respect for freedom and expression of the soul.
  2. Rely upon the disciplined teachings of an ethical mentor who has traveled the Ramkht path.
  3. Practice self-acceptance, meditative/introspective alertness with positive motivations.
  4. Respect, develop and harmonize mind, body and soul.
  5. Develop respectful conduct.
  6. Develop truthful fair communication.
  7. Cultivate The Way of our Kind

House of the Dreaming Ramkht attend the family’s moral, educational and mentoring needs. Ramkht do not necessarily follow a spiritual or magical path, they often direct community groups, formulating community projects, dedicating their leadership skills toward individual and community progress. Ramkht can also intermediate between the physical and the spiritual becoming the better suited for the highest act of homage – sacrifice in the name of the family, society, or community.

Ramkht studies in House of the Dreaming support the individual’s specific spiritual path (should there be one); an integral study of: ancient history, comparative religions, curatorial arts, metaphysics, occult, philosophy (dogmatic, moral, scriptural, and educational), science, and intercultural studies. Latin is strongly encouraged. Other suggested study includes: ceremonial magick, divination, dream analysis, illusionism, and leadership. Consider also public speaking, law, and solid community work.

It is recommended that each individual make a public oath of commitment or celebrate their initiation into the Ramkht road and dedication to The Ramkht Protocol. Only three candidates may be officiated at any one time. This ceremony requires a gathering of at least three; a Ramkht will officiate the oath, the candidate's mentor/adra/sire must be present; Family and friends may also attend. During The Oath, Ramkht may choose a new name, a reminder of their new life purpose; they may also choose a mentor better suited for the Ramkht road. The bestowment of the robe renders The Oath, officiating the Ramkht to perform the following services.
