[Sydneyfonzi]

When I consider the great sages and mystics who have explored and mapped the multifarious byways of consciousness and its emancipation from delusion, most with greater application and dedication than me. I am reluctant to discard their formulas and routes without careful consideration.

fine rhetoric above, Ngagpa, but can you actually give some examples of where the great sages and mystics used rites & rituals as important constituants of their paths & routes?

thanks
