Fair enough, but this ethical arrangement was never proposed to those of us who asked if it was ok to bless our friends without explicit consent.

After all, you can equally offer a blessing with the SOP, without imposing it,and asking permission for performing a magical ritual is totally inviable in many countries nowadays.

BTW, i tried the Blessing Walk today and i really loved it. I found it improved my mood, and prevented bad thoughts, in addition to all other positive effects.
