So I've recently been reading Summoning Spirits. It's an interesting book, but something that struck me is that the rituals in it are as Jewish as the proverbial Bar Mitzvah.

This begs a couple of questions.

1) How do people who adhere to non-Abrahamic religions perform evocations?
2) Are these rituals intended to imply that Judaism genuinely is "the truth," in a supreme or objective sense, to a greater degree than that of other religious systems?

Magical Evocation. All the fun of train surfing, without having to leave the house.

Either adapt the Chaote mentality that you can work with other gods outside your paradigm, or do a lot of research and substitute some things, I have done a Solomonic style evocation based off of Egyptian mythology and it worked, there are a lot of ways to evoke other than the Solomonic styles, I know people who developed their own original style and rituals for evocation, as long as you put a lot of energy and get the right symbolism it should work, though I bet a lot of Ceremonialists would disagree with me on that.
