The Ratcasta Minua.

We would like to note that this book is just an introduction to the Ratcasta Minua, and there is much more to it than what is simply written in this book. This is purely for advice, information and handy help for members of the Ratcasta Minua. Thank you. 

An introduction to the religion of Ratcasta Minua.

In the beginning of time, 4 young lords set out on a quest to find the greatest herd of sheep there was at the time in the whole of the land.

They travelled far and wide across the United Kingdom and all across Europe in search of this herd. They believed that their god (Ratcasta) had given this herd the power of love for oneself. With these thoughts of self love, it brings more thoughts of love for oneself. Many people thought the Lords were insane and crazy looking for such a wonderful, unimaginable source of love. They were worshipped by some, but looked at in bewilderment by many others. 

And so the four lords carried on their journey, travelling over hills and mountains, sailing over rivers and lakes, clearly in their minds, the vision of the perfect herd of sheep. Finally, when they thought all hope was lost, an old wise sheep herder told the men a rumour that the perfect sheep herd which was un-shepherded, was roaming over the high hills of the merry hills in the UK. The wise men, stunned and excited, immediately set out in direction of the supposed rumour. They travelled across these plains for 80 days and 80 nights before they found the first clue. A small pile of sheep excrement was glowing a faint but sure orange in the middle of a field. The lords rushed over to the excrement and sniffed it intently. They were sure this was from the perfect herd, for they felt a warm glow of love for themselves right there and then in their hearts. This encouraged them onwards on their quest as they carried this warm glow for the rest of their journey.

 One morning, when the third lord, “William Hier” woke up, he saw a faint glow of orange on the horizon. He woke the other lords in a hurry, and showed them this strange glow. They realised there were outlines of sheep portrayed in the clouds, directing them towards the faint glow. They knew instantly that this must be a sign that their quest was coming to an end. They rushed to get dressed and ran over as fast as they could to the glow that must have been the holy sheep. When they arrived, they found one sheep sitting on the floor, groaning as if it had hurt itself in some way, but also as if it was in pleasure. They realised that the sheep would not live to see another day, and so they all decided to put the poor animal out of its misery and also obtain the glory of self love that it held.

As the lords slowly dissected into the soft flesh of the jugular vein in the sheep’s furry, woollen neck, A vision suddenly appeared before them, in the form of an Orange glowing angel. The angel announced that they had done the right thing in killing it, as it was putting out of the misery that it would have suffered if it had had to endure the night before it. The sheep would have lost all of its love, therefore wasting it into the world, unused and forgotten. It told them that they must take the sheep’s wool and meat and put them to good use. The vision before them told them its name before slowly fading away back to the hidden mysterious world that it had come from. Its name: “Keith”. 

The four lords immediately after the vision had spoken to them; they ate the meat raw and bloody, seemingly ravishing they felt even though they had eaten just minutes before the incident. They ate all the meat down to the bone before skinning the sheep and taking its wool to be put to good use. They all decided to make the wool into something that would warm them, and they could keep for the rest of their lives. They decided to make the wool into 4 woollen hats to keep their heads warm, and therefore putting them to good use. The men, after eating and sculpting the sheep’s parts, felt a most amazing feeling throughout their bodies. They felt an extreme self love, and confidence flowing through their veins, and knew that these thoughts would bring more love back to them. 

They travelled back to their home town, in which they told the other people what had happened. Not a soul in the town believed their outrageous story. The men were devastated that they could not bring the great feelings that they had experienced to other people, because no one believed them enough to. They died the hats a bright Orange in commemoration of the amazing feeling of love inside them. This reminded them in years to come of the feelings and the wonder that they felt on that glorious day. 

The men all got married to beautiful maidens from local towns that they forever loved and cherished. They all lived happily with their wives. The wives never believed their strange stories, but they still loved the lords none the less. The men lived a happy life, sadly dying of old age near the 100 mark, sadly forgetting the tales that were told, and losing them into the great crevasse of darkness. Thankfully, they had one child each, who thought these tales were true, and so, they passed the tales down from child to child, when finally, one of those children when they had grown up, wrote out this special book, bringing all the tales back to life, and able to spread them to other people.

We believe that we four teenagers are descendants of the four great lords. We believe this due to the great happy feeling of love for ourselves and self confidence that is flowing through our veins, but we also believe that the hats we found at merry hill, the place where the original hats were made, also have the power of self love within them. 

The modern version of the discovery of the self love-wool. 

The modern version of the discovery of the woollen hats started when four teenagers decided to go on a trip to see a film in the present day at merry hill. Unfortunately, the four teenagers missed the film when they arrived too late due to one of the teenagers watch being slightly wrong. And so they decided not to see a film, but to go window shopping in the local shopping centre “Merry Hill”. They travelled round the shopping centre, looking at the various goods and foods that were on display. They also decided to buy a snack to eat whilst they were there. One of the teenagers “Aidan Joseph” bought a baguette, the other three bought some burgers from the local fast food chain “MacDonald’s”. They then went to catch the means of travel (bus) back to their houses in Stourbridge. Unfortunately but maybe for a good cause, the bus came in 15 minutes, and so they had to pass the time in some way until that time had come. They decided to go to the toilet as two of them needed it (William Hier, Sam Forsey). And so they went and did their private business, but on the way out, they noticed four hats precariously placed on the floor, unattended by anyone, And beside the hats, a piece of scrunched up parchment lying on top of them. The boy “Sam Harris” noticed them and pointed them out to the other boys. They went over to the hats, and immediately felt a warm pulsating love passing through their veins. This excited the boys; they had never felt such a sensation of true love for themselves. They whipped up the hats and placed them upon their heads. The boy “Sam Forsey” picked up the parchment and began to read. He saw that these words were rules of some kind, the rules of Ratcasta Minua, the bible of the Orange Crew. He read and was enlightened about the world. He realised what he had been missing all of his life and what he really should have been doing. He immediately took this into consideration, instantly learning the ways that Ratcasta wanted the world to follow. Sam showed the other boys who also instantly learnt the rules, and knew them as if they had known them all of their lives. They went home feeling warm and excited about their new finding, eager to tell their school mates, parents and teachers. Unfortunately, no one believed their stories. They were told to go away and write a 5000 word essay on their religion, which they all decided to do, as they were true to their religion. They laboured for 7 days and nights, eager to make the hand in date, which they easily achieved as they were so hard at work for so long. They were awfully proud of their achievement and delighted that others could share in their happiness and self love by becoming one of the Orange Crew. Although, people had to work for this, and that is told in another chapter. 

 

Chapter 2 – How To Become A Follower : 

Firstly you have to believe in the true story in The Minua. After you have signed on a piece of paper that you do so then you are ready for the trials. You must read this before you start the trials.

 

The trials

The trials consist of a journey to merry hill from the applicant’s home town because this is what the four lords did when they discovered this religion. This will be done in groups of four and most be done with just a tent and some food. Before you set off we will place an orange hat on your head (it will be a fake one) to prove that you can look after your hat if you pass the trials. Then there will be a set of tasks set to see if you can work together as a group and to see if you truly love each other. If you pass these first few tests then  you will then be set a task to prove that you love yourselves for The Minua states that one must love themselves so that others can love them. Once one has finished this first trial there will be more…

The applicant must also read all of the Ratcasta Minua from cover to cover to properly apply for the role of being a part of the Ratcasta Minua.

The test

After having proven that you are worthy of maybe dedicating your life to Ratcasta Minua then you are ready to sit a small test. But do not be put off by this idea. When I say small I mean very small. You will have to chant “I love myself” three times and then say that you will look after your hat, for your hat is the symbolisation of the love that pulsates through your veins.

The ceremony

Once you have passed all these trials you will then have an official ceremony so you can become an official follower of the Ratcasta Minua. This will take a place in a place designated by the official lords (William Hier, Aidan Joseph, Sam Forsey, and Sam Harris). This could be anywhere and we may surprise you! It could be a place of great beauty like when the lords first saw the angel rising up from the sunset. During this ceremony you will have to give us five English pounds to signify your loyalty and to pay for your hat. Yes that’s right! You get your own orange hat just like the lords did back all those years ago! And you will state once again that you will love yourself for that love will be therefore returned. Then you will drink from a cup that has holy water in it (water with added orange colour die) to signify love. After doing that you will have the hat placed on your head four times by each of the lords. Then my friend, you are one of us, and forever will be, unless you are banished by the great lords!

 

The ongoing trial

Just because you are in doesn’t mean that you have to stay in. you have to stay true to your word and wear your hat at every opportunity. We will be keeping an eye on you. If you feel you have to quit for any reason or have any further queries then just ask one of the four lords and we will consult about it together.

The Official Rules Of The Ratcasta Minua.

1. One must attempt to wear his/her/it’s hat at all possible times during the day. If one fails to do so, then one will have one strike put onto their “profile”. Even if another is in need of said hat, one must NEVER give/lend/let borrow his/her/it’s hat.

The profile is your progress throughout being part of the Ratcasta Minua. If you commit a sin that does not abide by the official rules then one will have a single strike put onto their “Profile”. If ones profile reaches a total of 3 strikes over the period of a year, then one will be automatically banished from the Ratcasta Minua. They then have to work their way back in by repeating the tasks that are needed to enter into the Ratcasta Minua. 

2. If one loses/breaks/damages/destroys/lets his/her/it’s hat get stolen or any other way of losing/breaking their hat, one must pay a total of 5 British pounds out of their own pocket to replace the said hat. If one is unable to do so, they are not allowed back into the Ratcasta Minua.

3. If the Hat stock of the Lords has depleted or is unavailable, then the applicant must attain another piece of orange clothing of any kind. E.g. Shoes, Jumper, Socks, Trousers, Underwear, Gloves, T-shirts, Finger Warmers, Leg Warmers, etc.

4. If one tries to enter the Ratcasta Minua without passing the trials or consulting the lords, one will never be allowed in, or ever be treated as a part of the Orange Group.

5. One must try to love oneself throughout their life. They must remember the feelings that the great lords must have felt and feel them again – therefore filling themselves with confidence, and self love, and that can be spread to others.

6. Members should try to spread the word of the Ratcasta Minua, but never try to enter their friends as members by themselves; members must always consult a lord to apply another applicant.

7. Any member of the Ratcasta Minua MUST follow the rules stated here, if one fails to do so, then one will have a strike added to their own profile, therefore granting them one step closer to being aborted from the Ratcasta Minua.

8. The lords may whenever they please change the rules in the Ratcasta Minua, but they must do so as a group decision and ONLY as a group decision. The thoughts of one lord and one lord alone cannot change the rules of the Ratcasta Minua.

9. The colour Orange is the only holy colour in the religion of Ratcasta Minua. Any other colours are registered as obsolete. 

10. One may NEVER attack/hit/kick/spit at/scratch/give any form of abuse to another of the Ratcasta Minua – in doing so; the member will be immediately put onto two strikes and would be watched carefully by the lords and other members of the Ratcasta Minua. If the offender commits any more sins of any kind in any way shape or form under the eyes of a lord, that member will be immediately dismissed from the Ratcasta Minua, in doing so, having his hat forcefully removed in any way from the offenders head.

11. Any further rules may be added/changed by the Lords and only by the lords after consulting the other lords in some sort of formal gathering.

12. For any question/queries please contact one of the four great lords: Sam Forsey, William Hier, Aidan Joseph and Sam Harris. They will inform you as best as they possibly can in any way they can. For any further queries that cannot be answered by the lords, attend a gathering at merry hill, and pray to Ratcasta Minua, you never know, he could appear there in a vision before you just like he had done in front of the original lords. 

 

 

The RMT – Ratcasta Minua Time Zone.

The way of recording time for the Ratcasta Minua’s is completely different to the normal way of recording time that is used in the present day. This time scale will help you live your life to the full, as every day represents a different meaning from the last, guiding you on your way to achieving enlightenment.

There are 8 and a half days in a Ratcastian week (Ultad), each day (Ad) lasting just 12 hours. These are the days of the week:

1. Yahad – New start.

2. Drabad – Work hard.

3. Sheinad – Give love.

4. Bleibad – Sing/Recite the Ratcastian traditional poem.

5. Gingad – Go to Merry Hill.

6. Ripplsad – Give self pleasure.

7. Bastad – Ritual hitting ceremony.

8. Unkaringad – Drink so much alcoholic beverages until one cannot stand.

      ½ day. Shimlyparpenrotudikulad – Rest Day.

1 Ratcastian months is the equivalent of 3 of the normal months. There are a total of 24 Ratcastian weeks (Ultads) in a Ratcastian month plus Yahad and Drabad before its starts again in a new month (Monultad) and a new Ultad. Every month is the signifying of a change of season, and so the months are named after the Lords that represent each season.

The 1st month is called “Hier” after William Hier and the year starts in summer. The 2nd months is autumn and is called “Joseph” after the lord Aidan Joseph. The 3rd of the months is in the winter, and is called “Forsey” after Sam Forsey. And the last month in the year, which is spring, is called “Harris” after Sam Harris. One whole year is called a Rebay and is the equivalent to a normal year.

All these terms and recordings were how the Ratcasta said for the world was to be run all those years ago when the four original lords found that very special sheep.

 

 

Every Ratcastian must recite the famous words of Ratcasta Minua. This poem is a symbolisation of the original love and confidence the first lords felt, and it has been created for the purpose of feeling the same love that was shared all these years ago. It has been passed from generation to generation, and may not be the same as it was thousands of years ago, but definitely, it has the very same meaning.

Ilo and Kipu (Heaven and Hell)

We believe as Ratcastian’s that there is an equivalent to heaven and hell on earth as there is in the parallel dimensions.

Ilo and Kipu represent pleasure and pain, for on earth there is a great deal of pleasures happening and there is also a great deal of pain and suffering. We believe that if you follow the ways of the Ratcasta Minua, you will receive more pleasure on earth as well as after death than pain. We believe that you do not have to work throughout your living life to have a reward of pleasure in the afterlife.

If you follow the ways of the Ratcasta Minua, then you will be re-incarnated back into another life as another human being somewhere in the world. If you do not follow the Ratcasta Minua, we believe you will go to a heaven, but we also believe that the parallel heaven is not as good as the on earth heaven, and so we encourage people to try and work for their pleasure, which they will receive in return. 

We believe as lords that we are the newest re-incarnation of the lords that discovered Ratcasta, and we believe it our duty to carry on the ways that were previously done for this wonderful religion.

Hell is the worst place in the universe. On earth, you receive a type of hell – pain from doing dastardly bad deeds such as murder, theft and many others. The Ratcastian’s choose to be as least strict as they can with punishments or consequences as they try to look at life in a free and happy way. Freedom is mostly granted, although there are boundaries of where it is just plain wrong.

Hell in the other dimension is a very black and deathly dark world. It is full of depressing colours and scenery. Dead corpses of whatever kind of creature it originally was are lying in heaps on the floors, emitting foul stenches for the inhabitants of hell to have to endure every day. The inhabitants are forced to work all day, making things and cleaning things for the great dark lord.

The dark lord is the ruler of Kipu (hell), some believe that he was originally a 5th lord many years ago, but he betrayed the other lords by leaving them, and forcing them to complete the quest by themselves. The dark lord can also be known as “Kipu Meis” which also means “Pain Man”. This is due to the pain and suffering that he brings to his workers.

Whilst in hell, you are never fed, nor exercised, but somehow you always manage to stay in good shape, as the Kipu Meis makes this happen. You will forever feel a feeling of hunger and heaviness throughout you, yet you still manage to do the work that you have been set.

If you fail to work as the Dark Lord asks you to do, you will be tortured for years to come, having to endure pain and suffering for as long as you are in this universe. If the lord is feeling generous, sometimes he lets his good workers go, and escape into nothingness, where they can forever live in peace.

We as the Ratcastians try very hard to make it that no one has to endure such horrible things. We try to keep people from doing bad things in their life, and encouraging them to worship the great Ratcasta Minua, for if they do, they will either be re-incarnated, or be granted the leisure of forever in heaven, or Ilo.  

 

 

 

 

The Traditional Ratcastian Poem.

 

On the next page is the traditional poem that must be recited on every Bleibad in the morning when you wake, and in the evening just before you go to sleep.

 

The Poem.

I do embrace the world,

With all my shining confidence.

I look on what I have created.

And think how wonderful it is.

The lords were sent for a purpose.

They were sent for love and sharing.

They were sent to spread the word,

Of adoring and of self-caring.

 

We hold upon our heads,

The sacred sign of equanimity.

Warming love throughout us,

And warming love within us.

We sometimes give our self pleasure.

When wanting a bit of leisure. 

But at others we help others,

As if we were their mothers.

 

The vision that came to the lords,

Must be shared with all humanity,

Bringing us all together,

For now and forever.

 

By the sacred lords of the west midlands.

Our Beliefs.

Our beliefs 

We believe that Ratcasta Minua is the one who saw the way forward with love and self confidence

We believe that the four lords were the chosen profits to tell all humanity about the Minua and the way of the Ratcastians.

We believe in re-incarnation if one follows the Minua.

We believe that by wearing a special orange hat, we gain more love and confidence and that it is a sacred and holy artefact.

We believe that you have to a do a certain amount of exercise to be happy with your body and so being self aiding in self confidence.

We believe that people don’t have to work all there life to get into heaven (Ilo) because one can still be happy. But one must work for a while to earn money and be happy and have a family (if one wants one this is not compulsory).

We believe in honesty for honesty brings true happiness. For if one lies one is not happy with the situation that one is in and will feel guilt. Guilt is an enemy. So therefore if one wants to be happier and more confident with oneself one needs to be truthful, and initially banish the enemy (guilt). Honesty is compulsory in being a Ratcastian.

We believe that humanity needs a type of freedom for if one is not free one is pulled down by the forces of need and worry. But we think that there must be some boundaries that one should keep to. For instance no killing and thieving. No skipping of responsibility for if one is set a task one must do it to the highest standard for then there again worry will set in. Worry is an enemy.

We believe that there is a heaven and hell but there is an equivalent on earth.

We believe that you have to work with destiny. You do not completely make your own and you do not completely rely on destiny to make it for you. We believe that if you work with destiny you will get your happiness. When we say work with it we mean try hard for yourself to gain happiness and in return, your destiny for spreading the word of the Ratcasta Minua will in turn, give back happiness.

If you have any questions about the beliefs ask one of the lords. Even if you have a belief and you would like to see if it’s Ratcastian then please ask one of the lords.

We believe that music is very important. It is not compulsory but very much encouraged to learn some kind of musical talent. It could be an instrument, crafting your singing skills, or even just learning to read music. Any talent is warmly welcomed into the Ratcasta Minua. Even though there aren’t very many hymns about Ratcasta Minua, we still encourage members to create songs and try their hardest to become skilled in such talents. One should have an open mind towards music, and embrace many different types of music. Try listening to music from all over the world, as we believe, connecting with music with other civilisations can help put the world in the right direction of uniting the world as the Ratcasta Minua originally wanted. 

 

How To Leave The Ratcasta Minua.

Leaving the Ratcasta Minua is considered as a complete disgrace to other members, but is allowed, as we try to let people live a free life. Leaving the Ratcasta Minua is about as easy as it is to join. You must go through a series of trials to make sure that you are well and truly strong and capable enough to fend for yourself against the pain and suffering in the world. We also care about our followers being able to endure the pain and suffering to come in the depths of hell.

Firstly, you have to again make your way to Merry Hill, walking on foot and having no food or water to help you on your way. Once you have done this, you are praised for being courageous and determined, as you have made it through the first trial, survival.

Secondly, you must take on a task that will challenge your physical strength. You will attempt to swim with only your swim wear for aid, all the way from one side of a pool to the other, underwater. Many people can do this, and it is very possible, but is also a test to see if you will give up in hell, and get tortured for all eternity. Of course the Ratcasta Minua would dread to see one of their former followers being tortured, and so they attempt to help them on their way. If they pass this, they have withstood the physical challenges of leaving the Ratcasta Minua, and are one step closer to being a completely free man/woman.

Once you have completed the physical side of the trials, you must again recite the traditional poem that was made by the great Ratcasta Minua. If they manage to do this without fail in one go, off by heart; then officially, they are then allowed to go free into the world. They are allowed to never wear their Orange religious hat again and are allowed to do whatever they please, with only the consequences of the present day to be worried about.

Of course we, as caring individuals, will try to convince the leaving member not to leave, as we want them to stay and do not want them to suffer as millions have done before them. But some people are sure they are ready to leave, and so we let them, as we are not the rulers of these people, only the guiders. We live to pass on the beliefs of Ratcasta Minua and to do that alone, not to decide how people live their lives.

A Few Concluding Words.

To conclude we would like to say a few words to help you remember the ways of the Ratcasta Minua.

We live to spread the word of the Ratcasta Minua.

We believe in love and confidence for oneself, helping in the present life.

We believe to live a happy fulfilled life, and re-incarnation afterwards.

Every being deserves a happy life, but it is up to them to decide how they live it.

Abide by the rules that Ratcasta Minua has set.
