Activating Revelations?


Rules Questions


According to RAW activating a Revelation requires a Standard Action unless otherwise stated. -

"Revelation: At 1st level, 3rd level, and every four levels thereafter (7th, 11th, and so on), an oracle uncovers a new secret about her mystery that grants her powers and abilities. The oracle must select a revelation from the list of revelations available to her mystery. If a revelation is chosen at a later level, the oracle gains all of the abilities and bonuses granted by that revelation based on her current level. Unless otherwise noted, activating the power of a revelation is a standard action."

So if I which to use Awesome Display do I have to spend a Standard action to activate it and then cast the spell? Or do I simply activate it at the beginning of the day and it applies to any of the appropriate spells cast forever and a day? Given that it doesn't state a duration.

Thanks

Awesome Display (Su): Your phantasmagoric displays accurately model the mysteries of the night sky, dumbfounding all who behold them. Each creature affected by your illusion (pattern) spells is treated as if its total number of Hit Dice were equal to its number of Hit Dice minus your Charisma modifier (if positive).


Intent is obviously passive non-action. For the RAW, note that neither duration or number of uses has any limits. So you activate the ability once at first level.
