Temple Unifies
The Temple is the Unifying
Manifestation of our Teaching
The
Temples will be built in the shape of
The Greatest
Sign.
There are six
doors entering the corridors of the Temple. The corridors form
the sign of the Kingdom Of Heaven In Heaven (),
which will connect all parts of the Temple together. The six
doors are: The Door of Pure Consciousness (),
the Door of the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth (
),
the Door of Sacrifice (
),
the Door of Surrendering and Submission (),
the Door of Universalism (
),
and The Door of Paravipras (Elects) (
).
***
There
are twelve sections around the center of the Temple (in the
illustration shown above, these are numbered from 1 to 12).
Each of these sections will be used as a library to house all the
spiritual realizations throughout history. The first section
from the first sign (
) to the
sign of the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth (
)
will have all the books or spiritual and historical materials from
this period. Section two (2) will have all the materials about
Judaism, the Hebrews, and their history, religion, and philosophy.
In section three (3) between the sign of the Kingdom Of Heaven On
Earth – or the seal of Solomon (
)
– until the sign of sacrifice, Christianity (
),
the materials of the history between these two eras should be
placed. In section four (4) all the materials about
Christianity will be housed. Section five (5) will have
materials of the history between Christianity and Islam
(surrendering).
The rest of the
sections will be as follows: In section six (6) the materials
about Islam, in section seven (7) materials of the history between
Islam and the advent of Bab, in section eight (8) materials about
the Baha’i Faith (universalism), in section nine (9) materials
between the Baha’i Faith until the sign of Paravipras, in section
ten (10) materials about Paravipras and the teachings of the Baba,
and in section eleven (11) the history to come (how eventually God
will fulfill His Plan until the human reaches very high
consciousness and the Kingdom will become His Kingdom – in heaven,
on earth, and within each individual).
In section
twelve (12) all the unknown ideas, speculations, and theories about
man before the evolution of the present human being will be found.
Also all the speculations of what Pure Consciousness is (the
theories of what kind of state of being it is) will be there.
In section
twelve (12) also all the teachings of the
Maitreya
should be placed separately. All other teachings and theories
should be studied and looked at through these teachings.
Otherwise the confusion of the Scriptures and revelations will make
the path of the seeker difficult. But with understanding
creation and history, The Greatest Sign, and realizing how
all things took place to bring man to higher consciousness and to
show him there is no other way but God’s way, then the seeker will
reside in the flow of the Universal Plan instead of considering only
one part of The Plan and becoming narrow-minded.
***
However,
the real realization does not come by merely studying the books in
this great library, but by understanding The Plan of God, becoming
The Greatest
Sign,
and going beyond search and study. This state is symbolized by
the very center of the Temple, which is beyond these libraries –
section thirteen (12+1).
This section
(13) will be a place of absolute silence and meditation. Men
and women should enter it with humility and respect. No
lectures, talking, or noise should occur there. It is a place
of Soul-to-Soul communion between God and His children. That
is when the real realization is obtained. In the next era,
many will be ready to reach this stage of direct communion and
understanding. They are the ones who will lead others also to
higher consciousness and true realization.
Meditation and
silence or using any techniques alone might not bring full
realization of God, as intellectual readings and research will not
lead to that realization either. But a comprehensive inclusion
of all kinds of awakening processes and false-ego-shattering steps
can help an aspirant to come to a perfect realization so that the
peace and understanding of the infinite truth can be achieved in the
middle of society and family life.
So in this age,
man should not run away from the realities of life but face the
problems of this universe with enough vigor and understanding to
surpass any obstacle. We now have many high conscious people
who have already progressed greatly by their individual endeavors
and His Grace in their past lifetimes. It is their
responsibility to establish that environment to help others also to
reach higher consciousness. That is why the time of being an
escapist is gone for spiritual people. They have no choice now
but to stay and work for the real spiritual truths that cover all
aspects of life.
***
You
enter the Temple in one religion, in one door. You become
unified inside that Temple. You have access to all kinds of
literature that you can read and satisfy your intellectual
curiosities. Still, that is not enough. You go to the
Spirit in the center of the Temple. The center of the Temple
is where the real realization is.
***
The
Temple really is kind of an external manifestation of an internal
truth. The manifested truth, as a Temple, is also going to
become an attraction which will drive people to come, look at the
Temple, ask questions, go inside and meditate, read the literature
and become more familiar with our work. So it is a kind of
symbolic manifestation of our teaching that we would like to build.
Humanity will
say, “Oh, the unification of all religions is here. The way to
create the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth is here. We can do it.
This is the Temple, this is the manifestation of what we are trying
to build on earth.” They will look at it and they will be
attracted to it.
They might even
just come as tourists. That is OK. They can come and
just look at the Temple, and Spirit might give them an experience
there. That experience will lead them to become a part of the
process of the truth.
So that is why
this Temple has to be built, so we can manifest how all the
religions of the world are unified together, and how we can go
beyond our narrow understandings of God.
