Temple of Perunika introduction post

(remake)

What is Temple of Perunika?

Temple of Perunika is a digital temple run by @jezzzebel

Although many people feel weird about digital "temples", and deem running modern temples "impossible" without an organization and a lot of people... I encourage people to think of this as not a temple in a conventional way, but as just another online organization.

What do y'all even do as a digital temple?

Well, first things first, we have a discord server which will be linked down... There we discuss all things related to slavic paganism.. and just chit-chat of course.

I will also post educational and informational content on here regarding slavic paganism, history and culture.

Although many of my past posts were... Pretty unserious... I am planning on expaning to actually educating people :) and spreading knowledge about slavic cultures.

People who I strongly prefer don't interact, as this is not a place for them:

Homophobes , transphobes, misogynists, nazis and racists, xenophobic people, conservatives and white supremacists.

The owner of this account is a queer woman who's experienced xenophobia too damn much.

Thank you for reading! And enjoy!

I will never, ever trust anyone who calls themselves a priest(ess) unless they have a myriad of qualifications and experience behind them. Are you aware of the kind of responsibilities you’re accepting? Are you able to comfort the downtrodden effectively and not just say “the gods love you” and leave it at that? Are you able to keep your composure and not allow the plights of others to affect you so you can better be of service? Do you have experience in counseling and leadership? Are you prepared for when someone comes to you with a pile of woe upon their shoulders? Do you have experience or knowledge about community building? Are you well studied in both the culture, history and religious traditions of your chosen religion? Are you able to guide and nurture countless individuals and modify your knowledge and beliefs to fit into their lives? Are you able to continue the work of uplifting a whole community even when you are tired, depressed, or going through hardship yourself? If you are not able to be initiated and guided under a trove of elders and the more experienced, what are you going to do to combat that problem? Who are you responsible to? What are your morals for leadership? Are you able to admit when you are mistaken? Have you been acknowledged by others to be worthy of that title? How are you enriching someone’s life and practice outside of the culture of doomscrolling on the internet? Do you know how to write sermons? Do you know how to lead prayer and ritual for a lot of people? What will you say when a congregate comes to you, devastated by death? Rape? Trauma? Mental illness? Can you recognize the signs of spiritual psychosis? Do you know how to navigate that? Can you spot cultural appropriation? Have you deconstructed from white supremacy and colonialism? Do you have connections with others that have experience in other belief systems so you can direct people to where they need to go? Have you and the gods ever discussed what you are willing to sacrifice in order to hold this position? Are you aware that you will make sacrifices at all and that this isn’t just a cozy, fun thing? Are you even old enough? Do you have enough life experience? Are you able to guide someone older than yourself effectively? How will you serve your community outside of religion?

I know everyone is different in their religious lives, but for me personally, it took me 5 years to answer the call of priesthood, and I AM STILL NOT A PRIESTESS. I am unable to be initiated, so my path involves seminary and intensive theologian study for what will likely be about the next 10 years of my life. Under no circumstances will I set up a group chat and call myself a priestess, no disrespect, but the ease of it takes away from the sacredness. In ancient times, priests were educated from CHILDHOOD and assumed their duties in ADULTHOOD.

At best it feels self-serving and at worst, cultish, to just set up a digital server, call it a temple, and give yourself a flashy title.

I WANT IT

[to-hypnos-we-dream]

Many times I'll receive ask that start with "sorry" or "hope this isnt annoying", my friends this is a digital TEMPLE! I made this not for just my worship but OUR worship. This is not just a worship blog but a TEMPLE you can return to. Send ask as much as you like, this blog was made for YOUR WORSHIP too!!! If you sent one and maybe I did not respond, it was an accident ! I'm very busy but I will try better to respond to you all.

I made a temple to Inanna in the sims 4 using businesses and hobbies!

I'll add to this post with a whole post about it but it's a very casual space, so I'll probably make a more formal one. And I want to make one for Lady Ereshkigal!

I'm going to preface it by saying that I am not a builder in the sims, I am not really good at it, but I wanted to try!

Hello!

I am Leka, or Nika. I was a temple-keeper in a past life, and now I am reviving that tradition on the internet via this blog!

If you are a deitykin, or an angelkin, or divine in any way and would like an altar posted in this temple, please talk to us through Direct Messages!

If you would like to send in an offering, send images using the ask system! Offerings can be for one specific deity from this temple, or to all the deities as a whole!

Thank you.
