Internet Guardianship Ritual

Guardians and Protectors!

Now I step into this great charnel ground, this great bardo called the internet.

I recognize that this is a place of wild and precarious forces.

A place where I may see things distracting and disturbing that will tug at my attention and try to get in.

Guardians and Protectors, keep me safe, keep me linked to you.

Keep me connected to the four directions and the sun and the moon so that I remember which way is up even while in the midst of turbulent seas.

May anything that does not serve dissolve like frost in the sun into the vast primal ground of space.

May all that serves, serve me well in this life and be used for the benefit of all beings.
