The Temple Explained
"The Temple as a Center for Worshipping and Education"

TMpt150C

The base of the Temple, as we mentioned before, will be built in the shape of The Greatest Sign. Inside The Greatest Sign, as it is shown in The Greatest Sign above and also in the illustration at the right, there is a large symbol of the Star Of David (kohoe-s.gif (879 bytes)). This will be built as the corridors for the Temple. This will connect all parts of the Temple together.

There will be six entrances to the Temple. The six doors are: The Door of Pure Consciousness (center-s.gif (899 bytes)), the Door of the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth (kohoe-s.gif (879 bytes)), the Door of Sacrifice ( cross-s.gif (869 bytes)), The Door of Surrendering and Submission (islms15c.jpg (912 bytes)), The Door of Universalism (baha-s.gif (97 bytes)), and the Door of Paravipras (Elects) (kohw-s.gif (904 bytes)).

There are twelve sections around the center of the Temple (as numbered from 1 to 12 in the illustration to the right-above). 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 (ichng-s.gif (891 bytes)) to the sign of the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth -- (kohoe-s.gif (879 bytes)) 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 (kohoe-s.gif (879 bytes)), 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 (kohoe-s.gif (879 bytes)) -- until the sign of sacrifice, Christianity (cross-s.gif (869 bytes)), the materials of the history between these two eras should be placed. In section four (4) all the materials about Christianity (cross-s.gif (869 bytes)) will be housed. Section five (5), between Christianity (cross-s.gif (869 bytes)) and Islam (islms15c.jpg (912 bytes)) (surrendering), will have materials of the history of that period. The rest of the sections will be as follows:

In section six (6) the materials about Islam (islms15c.jpg (912 bytes)), in section seven (7) materials of the history between Islam and the advent of Bab/Baha'i, in section eight (8) materials about the Baha'i Faith (baha-s.gif (97 bytes)) (universalism), in section nine (9) materials between the Baha'i Faith until the sign of Paravipra, in section ten (10) materials about Paravipras (kohw-s.gif (904 bytes)) 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 (center-s.gif (899 bytes)) is (the theories of what kind of state of being it is) will be here.

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 - number of Disciples/unit in a community plus Spirit/God).

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 which cover all aspects of life.

A second story can be built over the Temple. Over sections 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12, pyramids with a triangular base (tetrahedron) can be built. By dividing each of the six arcs (of the circle around the Temple) into two and making straight lines from the center of each arc to the two points of the arc, a twelve sided structure (dodecahedron) at the top of the Temple will be created. Therefore, sections 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 will have a four-sided shape. Then pyramids with a four angle base can be built over them.

The twelve pyramids (six with triangular bases and six with quadrangular bases) can be built over the libraries, preferably from glass to let the light into the building.

A dome or similar structure can be built over section thirteen. A glass or crystal design of the HOSH sign will be placed in the center. Domes have a spiritual effect on humans and pyramids an intellectual one.

The offices for maintaining the Temple should be built outside, and no profitable activity should be done in the Temple. The Temple should be a place of worshipping and for gaining spiritual and intellectual knowledge. Also it should be a place of service.

The physical fitness facilities, such as gymnasiums and running tracks, pools, and other sports areas, can be built close by if financially feasible. Also centers of other knowledge and education such as universities can be built around or close to the Temple.

The physical fitness facilities should not be built for show or games, but for individual health and should be used moderately. Man consists of a physical body, mental abilities, and spirit and Soul, so all three levels should be developed properly. Emphasis on any one part will be equal with loss in another.

Also around the Temple beautiful flowers should be grown, also trees, grass, and many varieties of pleasant smelling plants, so that the Soul is refreshed on the way to the Temple. After this garden border, the other facilities such as offices, gymnasiums, universities, or the communities can be built.

Although the base of the Temple will stay the same, the top of the Temple can be modified according to the taste, budget, and laws of the land (where it is built, ordinances existing, etc.).
