It was suggested to me recently that I ought to work on developing my discernment. Having been raised by a roving pack of wild Jesuits, whenever I think of the word "discernment", I think of the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola.

However, not being a Christian (let alone a Catholic -- not that that stopped the two Hindus who have become Jesuits!), I have begun adapting the Spiritual Exercises to my own ends. Very roughly, two of the most important of these ends are (1) to move away from a sin-based understanding and towards a Will-based understanding, (2) to place the Roman god Antinous at the center of the work, and (3) to adapt the work from one based in the Æon of Asar to one based in the Æon of Heru.

Why Antinous? For one, he's awesome. For two, he's really hot. And, for three, there is at least one depiction from the ancient world that might syncretize him with both Dionusos and Yeshua bar-Yosef ho Christos ha Mashiach, all of whom shared similar Dying-and-Reborn stories.
