Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram 
The vision
There is a temple filled with light form a lamp held by the Deity. The  light shines out brighter than a million suns. This light will be seen  upon the earth, manifested through every conceivable medium. 
The voice
The Light is one, its colors many; each color contains an entire palette.
The Word is one, its expression manifold; each in its own tongue and subtleties of speech and grammar.
There is but one Temple eternal from which the Light shines forth, though it arises as many within the cycles of time.
The  Word is fragmented in the world, the Light is reflected and scattered.  Each fragment contains the whole, though it may be approached from but a  single aspect.
Wisdom speaks in a common tongue, but is received by each in their own tongue.
The commentary 
The  confusion of tongues is not a punishment, a hindrance or an obstacle;  rather, it's a necessary aspect of the manifestation of the perfect in  the imperfect. Every man and woman is a star. If we all spoke the same  language (or if any of us did), this could not be so. 
We build a  structure designed to help us understand what lies beyond us (the Tower  of Babel), and Wisdom rewards us by revealing the Divine within. In the  process, the Tower is destroyed. Why not? It's served its purpose and  is no longer needed.
