Mass culture has created an extremely alluring — yet utterly false — image of such institutions. It suggests that a person who finds a “secret book” or a “secret amulet” automatically receives Power and strength that strike the imagination.
Prav also has a microcosmic application — in the sense of the right, that is, one’s own Way.

Ancestral force, ancestral ties, ancestral debts — all these concepts are connected to the Physiological egregore. This term typically denotes the general energetic structure of a particular lineage or family.
World mythology contains many images of the Cosmic Tree. Yet analogies often arise where their fit is not harmonious. An example of such a strained analogy is the common conflation of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life with the pagan World Tree (in particular, Yggdrasil).
