           The above Consecrating ash mantra is similar in various ways as the Northern Ontario communities perform Consecrating Seed rituals. The last stanza of Consecrating Seed ritual by Northern Ontario communities   is sufficient to understand the similarities –
…
Gods, ancestors and nature spirits
Be giving growth and kindly substance
…
                 In Ukrainian, Tibetan and Polish traditions, the consecrating ritual performances are very common. In West coast of South Africa, people used to   burry tortoise with consecrating ritual performances (Jayson  Orton , 2012) as found in Kali or Chaubatiya Mantra ritual performance in Garhwal or Kumaun.  There are many consecrating ritual performances in Taoist rituals.
