I attempted to write the ritual of 10 grades of a mystical (I guess) fraternal/sororal organization. It maybe inaccurate here and there.
Order of the grateful Heart
God, thank you for my spirit, soul and body.
Body
First Grade
God, thank you for everything material around me. Nature works as a supreme machine, unerring every second. In the precise laws of the material world lies your glory. Our material body is a magnificent thing. Billions of cells, molecules and electrons work in order in my body. Thank you for giving me such a gift.
Second Grade
God, thank you for the gift of sleep. Whenever I sleep, though I am unconscious my mind is directing the functions of my body. I rejoice that this magnificent function is still working when I am awake. My body is following the orders of my mind even when I am not conscious of that, this great subconscious mind protects me and builds my body. Thank you for such a great gift.
Third Grade
God, thank you for the gift of intelligence and reasoning. Humanity makes wondrous discoveries by logic and reasoning every day. Scientist ease our life by inventing. It is an excellent tool to help those around me and live in the world in an intelligent way. Thank you for this great gift.
Fourth Grade
God, thank you for the gift of feelings. Feelings are the motivation of the arts, they make our wellbeing. Feelings help me to change, they also provide still, happy moments. Thank you for this great gift.
Soul
Fifth Grade
God, thank you for the gift of consciousness. My consciousness, my “I am” -ness helps me to withness all these great gifts so far, and those yet to come. Thank you for this great gift.
Sixth Grade
God, thank you for the gift of will. My willpower allows me to interact, to move in this world. Blessed be the goodwill, which shapes our world for the better every day. Thank you for this great gift.
Seventh Grade
God, thank you for the gift of love. It is great to feel and give it. It is the basis of all morale and everything that is worthy in our lives. Thank you for this great gift.
Spirit
Eighth Grade
God, thank you for the universal love. All individual love is merged into the magnificent pool of universal love. Love makes everything grow, it is the power which pushes everything forward. Such a power is of infinite treasure to us, it adds quality to our lives and the existence of the universe. Immersing our love into this great sea of benevolence is how we partake in heavenly treasures. This is a benediction which we hold so dearly. Thank you for this great gift.
Ninth Grade
God, thank you for the universal will. It is a creative goodwill, it makes everything possible. The universal will forms the conception of goodness, and universal love makes this conception real. Universal will forms the seed which is planted into the soil of universal love which makes it germinate. Immersing our goodwill into the glorious cosmic goodwill is the way to do the will of the universe and being blessed forever. Thank you for this great gift.
Tenth Grade
God, thank you for all the gifts you have given me, thank you for giving me the fact of your existence. I am of the utmost gratitude and now I am ready to make you a gift. I cannot give You anything else, but what I have – which is myself. You granted me the fact of your existence – now I radiate back to you. Everything I have is yours, I am yours. I give you everything: my body, reasoning, feelings, I am ness, will and love. My love is your love, my will is your will. My I am is your I am. The father and son are united. “I and the Father are ONE”. I am God.
