Greetings, I have benn studying the Jos again and for what I understood I cannot repeat the dedication ritual right? If so I'm thinking of performing a recommitment /reconciliation ritual to affirm my dedication again to amend my mistake of leaving, does anyone have experience regarding similar cases any suggestions? Thank you

This is not required. What is required is the daily practice of the 8-fold path...

No: the JoS site says the dedication is permanent. You don't need to "affirm" your dedication because the Dedication ritual didn't get "damaged" or whatever because you stopped practicing meditations, rituals and other things. You are still a dedicated Satanist, no matter how many times you tried to leave. That's the point of the JoS site saying it is to be done only once: it's permanent and can't be broken. The truth is you didn't leave Satanism because you can't really leave it once you have done the dedication ritual. HP Pythia even used the lyrics of Hotel California by Eagles as an allegory for this:

Last thing I remember I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive
You can check out any time you like but you can never leave"


All you did is stopped practicing Satanic stuff, and all you have to do is start practicing again. That's it. You need to think of what you did as "stopping practicing" instead of "leaving".
