Action and Words...
Just as Intention and Lowliness, Kavanah and Shiflut, lead to Stillness and Silence, Damam and Hacah, Damam and Hacah lead to Action and Words. Action is Ritual, and the Hebrew word 'Asah best describes it. Words are to Prophesy, Naba'.
'Asah is the Hebrew word for "to do, fashion, accomplish, make" and can mean "to do", "to work", "to make", "to produce", "to deal (with)", "to act", "to effect", "to prepare", "to make (an offering)", "to attend to", "to put in order", "to observe", "to celebrate", "to aquire (property)", "to appoint", "to ordain", "to institute", "to bring about", "to use", "to spend", "to pass", "to be done", "to be made", "to be produced", "to be offered", "to be observed", "to be used", "to press", or "to squeeze". Basically, if it's an action, it's 'Asah. A Ritual is an Action done as an act of worship. Ritual comes out of Stillness, out of Damam, and leads to Kavanah, Intention.
Naba' is the Hebrew word for "to prophesy" or "to be under the influence of divine spirit". Words spoken out of Silence are Naba'. Naba' are the words of the Divine spoken through man. This leads back to Shilflut, Lowliness.
