St. Paul asked in 1 Corinthians: “Don’t you recognise that you are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” and “Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God?” In 2 Corinthians he comes right out and says it plainly: “We are a temple of the living God; even as God said, ‘I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.’”

The disciple John hints at this when he recounts in his gospel an event when Jesus was in the great temple in Jerusalem and was asked to show the humans a sign. “Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.’ The people at the temple said, ‘Forty-six years was this temple in building, and will you raise it up in three days?’ But he spoke of the temple of his body.”

From Edgar Cayce’s attunement to the Universal Consciousness, he too saw and taught that our bodies are more than physical vehicles for living in this world. Here are five brief excerpts:

“Know that your body is the temple of the living God; there you may seek communion. There you may seek counsel as to the selections to be made, the directions to be taken.”

“He has promised. ‘If you will but open the door of your consciousness, of your heart, I will enter and abide with you.’ This is not a fancy; this is not hearsay. You may experience such. For it is the law, it is the way, it is LIFE itself!”

“Seek and you shall find. Not without but from within. For in thine own temple He has promised to meet you.”

“All that you may learn of the Father God is already within self. For your body is in truth the temple of the living God, and as you meet Him there you may gain in your own cognizance the gratification of walking and talking with Him. When these consciousnesses are yours and you are one with Him, then in truth may you see that the kingdom of heaven dwells within.”

“This is a promise to you, to each soul; yet each soul ought to of itself find that answer within self. For without doubt the body is the temple of the living God. There He has promised to meet you; there He does. And as your body, your mind, your soul is attuned to that divine that answers within, so may you in truth be sped to recognise His purpose; and you may fill that intent for which you entered this experience.”

Years ago, when I original read these teachings, I would sit quietly and go within my temple. With my physical eyes closed, I would scan inside my head with my mind’s eye, looking for God. I would begin conversations, and then sit silently, listening for a response. In those early days it was like sitting in a dark, empty room by myself. There was not one thing in here but me. If I started out to perceive a response, I would not know if it were a great deal of aspect of me or genuinely God speaking. Now, thirty-some years later, I cannot close my eyes without sentiment the nearness of a vast inner universe of life, information, creativity, and God. In preparing to write this article I expended a heap of time recalling how I went from sitting by myself to awakening to the heavens within. It is unfeigned that if one seeks, one will find; it’s a matter of seeking long enough. And it was a long journey, with a heap of side trips that led nowhere. But, through it all, there was a thread that I may now see in hindsight. There were spontaneous moments of enlightenment, of direct contact with God, and of knowing the truth. Sustaining those proved more difficult than expected because outer life was more integral to inner growth than expected. If I stopped living the fruits of the spirit in the outer life, the inner life dried up. But the inner life is the ultimate, eternal life, and it is only lived by going within the temple of the body and awakening to it.

There are two magnificent ways to enter the temple within: deep sleep and deep meditation. A good biblical example of deep sleep developing a imaginativeness of the life within would be Jacob’s dream of the ladder to and from heaven. You’ll recall that upon waking from deep sleep, he said, “This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate to heaven.” The place of deep sleep and illuminating dreams is without doubt the house of God and the gate to heaven. A good biblical example of deep meditation fabricating a imaginativeness of the life within would be John’s description of how The Revelation began. John tells us that he “was in the spirit [in deep meditation, caught up in the spirit] on the Lord’s day and I heard and saw and was told to write.” In this issue, let’s explore how the body, the temple, is arranged for spiritual activity.

THE EXPERIENCE

I am often asked to describe what it feels like to open centers and raise energy, and to be in the presence of God. The Ineffable is just that, ineffable. Even God ordered Old Testament seekers to make no images or utter any name for Him. Additionally, I’ve found that humans are rather distinctive in their wiring and perception. Some are more visual. Others are auditory. And a heap of are tactile or kinesthetic, sentiment more than perceiving. Some are conceptual; they know. Frankly, I could find no divergence in the profoundness of their spiritual experiences. For me, it begun with sentiment the Presence and the energy, then formulated into knowing, and at last became visual. But I have a friend who begun seeing before he could feel. I commend that you seek and exercise and concede yourself to discover it as it comes to you. You ought to have a good deal of faith that it is there and in the beginning you’ll need to be inspired (that helps lift you into the Spirit).

SECRET STRUCTURE

Many of the body’s major schemes may be applied for both physical and spiritual activity. For example, the seven major endocrine glands that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream to keep the body running optimally are likewise a physical portion of the seven spiritual centers or chakras that may affect major changes in our vibrations and consciousness. The central nervous system, so critical to living in the three-dimensional world, is likewise a share of the kundalini pathway that may raise our vibrations and help us comprehend beyond three dimensions.

Much of this was known in the sacred and ofttimes mystery temple schools of ancient cultures around the world. For example, the staff carried by the god Mercury (also known as Hermes by the Greeks, Thoth by the Egyptians, and Enoch by the Hebrews, and who Cayce said was an incarnation of “the Word”) remains today as the emblem of innovative medicine (the caduceus). But few actually recognise it is intended meaning. It is an magnificent emblem for physical healing, but it also holds the metaphysical structure of the body for spiritual flight, flight with the messenger of the gods, Mercury, into the heavens and the presence of the Most High God (see diagram on the front page).

An essential but often times forgotten instructing in various ancient temple schools dealt with the motion of the life strength in the body. It was taught that when the life strength flows downward and outward through the body’s structures, one becomes entirely incarnate and conscious in this world; when the life strength flows inward and upward through these same structures, then one moves beyond this reality and becomes conscious of the heavens. If both flows are made to circulate the life force, then integration occurs, and the person becomes whole, both humane and divine. Cayce and other origins instruct that this is accomplished by using the breath. The Taoist teacher Liu Hua-yang wrote: “There is a turn upward toward Heaven when the breath is drawn in. When the breath flows out, energy is directed towards the Earth. In two intervals one gathers Sacred Energy.”

Edgar Cayce’s readings affirm these energy flows and give hope or courage to us to work at entering the temple within and raising the life strength in order to draw closer to God and receive His/Her counsel and comfort, and at long last to become one with God. In the process, we are to channel that light and love into this world, into our lives and the lives of those we interact with each day. This, according to a great deal of spiritual teachers and schools, is the necessary lesson to be learned in this incarnation: recognise and love God exclusively and channel that light and love into this life’s each day prospects with others. Entering the temple, raising the energy, enlivening the spiritual centers, and uniting with God are not necessary to living a spiritual, loving life. But, if one wants to experience the whole of God knowingness and eternal life, then one needs to raise the body’s vibrations and experience higher states of consciousness. Moses could not ascend the mountain and meet God face to face until he original gave water to the seven maidens and raised the serpent off the desert floor — symbolic of enlivening the seven spiritual centers and raising the kundalini energy.

Let’s explore the body’s mystery structure and numerous of the proficiencies for finding God within us and channeling the light and love into our lives.

SPIRITUAL CENTERS & THE LIFE FORCE

The conception of spiritual centers may be found in the art of antiquity, from glowing globes on people’s heads in Egyptian art to third eyes on the bodies (even on the palms of hands) in classical Asian art.

The original formal mention of spiritual structures, including energy centers and pathways, appears in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, c. 300 B.C. He reveals six centers and an extreme luminescence that occurs around the top of the head. These centers are depicted in two ways: as chakras (literally, “spinning wheels”) and as padmes (literally, “lotuses”). Therefore, one may grasp that the spiritual centers are both energy vortexes that generate motion as they are stimulated (as a spinning wheel) and enlightenment complexes that unfold as they grow (as an opening lotus). Cayce correlated these centers with the endocrine glandular scheme in the body. He likewise said that there are twelve (1861-11), but seven are of importance here. Whenever we find seven people, places, or things in a classical story, we may correlate them with the seven spiritual centers. Cayce’s most famous example of this is in his interpretation of the Book of the Revelation. He correlates the seven churches, seals, vials, and plagues to the cleansing and opening of the seven spiritual centers within a seeker’s physical body (for more on this, see my book Edgar Cayce on the Revelation). Hugh Lynn Cayce had a arousing and attention holding visual representation on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as a tale of spiritual awakening.

Patanjali likewise identifies three pathways in the body. Two are an interwoven double helix called ida and pingala, many times represented by double serpents (as in the caduceus). The third is a single path, the sushumna, beginning in the lower pelvic area and traveling directly up the body to the top of the head. These pathways correspond to the body’s two nervous systems: the sushumna to the central nervous system, with it is spinal column and the brain, and ida and pingala to the deeper autonomic nervous system, with it is woven nerves that start out in the lower torso and ascend to the brain. These three pathways act as one. The energy flows through them simultaneously.

The endocrine glands along this pathway are, in order from lowest to highest: gonads (testes in males and ovaries in females), cells of Leydig (named after the doctor who encountered them, located in and above the gonads), adrenals (located on top of the kidneys), thymus (located in the upper chest), thyroid (in the throat), pineal (near the center of the brain at the top of the spinal liquid canal), and pituitary (just above the back of the roof of the mouth, behind the bridge of the nose, tucked under the frontal lobe). In order as chakras they are: the root, navel, solar plexus, heart, throat, crown, and brow, or third eye. Many innovative books and teachers list the crown as the most eminent and the third eye as sixth, but Cayce instructs us otherwise, as do a lot of of the more classical texts and images. For example, in ancient Hinduism the kundalini pathway is symbolized by a cobra in the striking position, not straight up. In mystical Egyptian and Mayan art it is a winged serpent in the striking position. In Hebrew and Christian mysticism it is the shape of the shepherd’s staff. The energy flows along a path that is like a question mark (?), not like an exclamation mark (!). Cayce says it flows up the body to the base of the brain, then over to the center of the brain and the crown of the head, and then on to the forehead and the great frontal lobe of the brain and the third eye.

Cayce states that the navel and the crown centers have a powerful magnetism amidst them. He says that the crown is always ready to illumine and elevate, but that people ought to open the navel center before they may get started to transcend and transform. He calls the navel center the “closed door” and the crown the “open door.” Some Eastern texts call them the “lower gate” and the “jade gate.” Reconnecting these two centers is key to restoring our connection to the divine within. Here are three Cayce excerpts on this:

“This was from the flow of emotion from the kundaline center or the Lyden (Leydig) gland, to the ones in the center [pineal] and frontal portion of the head [pituitary]. This is not one thing to be fearful of, but keep the emotions better balanced.”

“Second sight, or the super-activity of the third eye may come whenever there is the opening of the lyden (Leydig) center and the kundaline forces from same to the pineal.”

“We find that there has been the opening of the Lyden (Leydig) gland, so that the kundaline forces move along the spine to the respective centers that open with this attitude and these activenesses of the mental and spiritual forces of the body.”

PREPARATION

Here are two essential readings on preparation and raising of the kundalini. They are questions and answers:

“Q: Through my meditation, has the kundalini fire risen to the head or top of spine at base of skull? A: It has risen at times, but has not remained; else there would not be those periods of confusion. For, when this has arisen and is passed around decently through the seven centers of the body, it has purified the body….”

“Q: How may I fetch into action my pineal and pituitary glands, as well as the kundalini and other chakras, that I may attain to higher mental and spiritual powers? A: First so fill the mind with the idealisti that it may vibrate all around the whole of the mental being! Then, close the desires of the fleshly self to conditions with regards to you. Meditate upon ‘Thy will WITH me.’ Feel this. FILL all the centers of the body, from the lowest to the highest, with this ideal; opening the centers by surrounding self introductory with that consciousness, ‘Not my will but Thine, O Lord, be done in and through me.’ And then, have that desire, that purpose, of not attaining without HIS direction — who is the Maker, the Giver of life and light; as it is without doubt in Him that we live and move and have our being.”

You get Cayce’s major idea in these readings. He teaches us to prepare to raise the spiritual forces in the body by setting and sentiment a powerful, fully-penetrating idealisti of God’s will, rather than our will, and to feel God’s direction allround the whole of our being as we open the centers and raise the energy. As he said in an earlier reading, “There is not one thing to be fearful of, but keep the emotions better balanced.” So some persons that I’ve talked with over the years of instructing meditation have conveyed their fear of raising the kundalini and opening their spiritual centers. The instructing is: don’t raise and open by yourself! That is justifiedly fearful. But do get in there and attune self to God’s presence and then, in His/Her presence, open and concede the spiritual forces to flow. Here’s a wondrous reading on this:

“Indeed it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Yet, they that love His coming, they that walk in the cool of the evening, in the shadow of His precepts, shall be awakened to the outstanding truth….”

Are there dangers? Yes. But most of them are before us always. As Cayce points out: “Yourself is your biggest weakness, as yourself is your greatest strength.” If we seek to become to a complete degree conscious of God and one with God, then we have to get to work on cleansing, raising, and living the love and light that is God and on with controlling our willful, self-seeking desires. “With the opening of yourself to the vibrations, the emanations, you may be tempted by the desires of the flesh; yes, of the spirit of untruth. But hold fast to that light which is your assurance of His presence with you!”

After imbuing ourselves with the idealisti of “God’s will be done,” Cayce instructs us to get our bodies in order: decently assimilating nutrients necessitated to maintain high levels of life and eliminating wastes and toxins that build up in the system. He likewise directs us to exercise, even if it is just walking a mile after dinner, and to get massages and adjustments to keep the fluids and electrical energies flowing with no problems or difficulties through the whole of our system. He distinctively identifies three points along our spines through which there is the action of “the kundalini forces that act as suggestions to the spiritual forces for distribution through the seven centers of the body.” They are among the vertebrae and ganglia of the spine: 3rd cervical, 9th thoracic, and 4th lumbar. These need to be kept limber, open, and flowing. Get them massaged and adjusted, and do each day exercises to keep them fluid.

So important is the body’s condition that in a heap of cases he actually commended not practicing deep meditation until the body’s health improved.

There are a great deal of other activenesses one may do in preparation for entering into the temple and meeting God. Each of us will have to study and exploration them on our own and select what works for us. See the meditation section of this web site. I go into more detail on these in chapters two through five of my book Spiritual Breakthrough: Handbook to God-Consciousness. There are other magnificent books available through A.R.E. Press. You may also attend a workshop at a territorial program in your area or at a Virginia Beach headquarters’ program.

Seek within! You will find.

I am on day 10, and found that my skin has become very clear, where before I had oily skin and was prone to break outs. (I’m 43! ).

My waist size has gone down, my pants are loose. I feel very well.

Best cleanser on the market.
By A. Baker
I love how fast this product works and how WELL it works. Be careful when going from three pills toward five as this will startle your system and you will want to be near a restroom for days (if you know what I mean). Instead try going up to four first.

Great product!

A great cleaner for the insides.
By M. Johnson
Yerba Prima is a God’s sent. I tried this product after being recommended by the health store Clark’s. I wanted to cleanse my body after having a baby (via C-section). I felt all the medicines, anesthesias, and junk were leading to my swelling. This product reduced my tummy and I felt clean inside. This is a must try!!!
