Excerpt for a common preaching giving to young children

Magic is everywhere and we are magic. All of nature is united with Magic as one and we are not exception. We are all born of Magic and one day we will all return to Magic.

Magic is might. Magic can be everything and do everything, regardless of whether or not we are aware of it. Indeed, as puny humans, we can only hope to learn a tiny fraction of Its splendor. Yet, it behoves us to continue our exploration of Its glory so that we can understand It better and love It more for it.

Magic is worthy of our adoration and of our thanks for Its benevolent gift of life and power. Never forget to offer some of your magic back in return during festivals. Far from weakening you, this will allow you to commune with Magic and, for a brief amount of time, to feel as one with the rest of the universe.

Magic must be respected. Never blame It for the unhappiness and misfortunes that befall you in life, for It will not bend the world just to please you. Be grateful It gave you a part of Itself so that you have the means to change your fate and rather than complain get to work. But if you are still tempted to curse, do remember that destruction is always easier than creation, and that to Magic human's life are tiny.

Magic's will must be followed—but always be careful of those individuals who claims to be able to hear Its voice clearly and who uses this as an excuse to make everyone obey them. Participate in festivals and put your whole magic into them to create a strong bond with Magic so as to hear Its voice yourself.
