Hey everyone, as promised we have put together a short “self initiation” ritual that you may use as a template to dedicate yourself to a chosen path or mark an important event. We will release this as both audio and in written format, so if you want to print it off and fill it out, or modify it in whatever document writer you use, please feel free to do so. This is meant to be a general outline for working with self-initiation rites, so please modify it to fit your path or preferences! The print version is available on Facebook and on our Patreon.

THE PENTABARF

From 'Principia Discordia' by Malaclypse the Younger

"KNOW YE THIS O MAN OF FAITH!

I. There is no Goddess but Goddess and She is Your Goddess. There is no Erisian Movement but the Erisian Movement and it it the Erisian Movement. And every Golden Apple Corps is the beloved home of a Golden Worm.

II. A Discordian Shall Always use the Official Discordian Document Numbering System.

III. A Discordian is required during his early Illumination to Go Off Alone & Partake Joyously of a Hot Dog on a Friday; this Devotive Ceremony to Remonstrate against the popular Paganisms of the Day: of Catholic Christendom (no meat on Friday), Judaism (no meat of Pork), and of Hindic Peoples (no meat of Beef), of Buddhists (no meat of animal), and of Discordians (no Hot Dog Buns).

IV. A Discordian shall Partake of No Hot Dog Buns, for Such was the Solace of Our Goddess when She was Confronted with the Original Snub.

V. A Discordian is Prohibited of Believing What he Reads.

SO IT IS WRITTEN! SO BE IT. HAIL DISCORDIA! PROSECUTORS WILL BE TRANSGRESSICUTED."
