Begin Within
Prayer: All our reality begins within, O Creator of Creations. As our origin is in Thee, so too is our beginning, our spirit-soul conception, pristine and without stain. It is here, at the center of our being, where we must turn to in order to live our life as we were fashioned to fulfill.
The path to within is the path leading to The Temple of the Holy I AM, wherein Our Divinity, Our Destiny, everlastingly abide, aflame with The Sacred Fire Eternal.
The temple is simple in structure, circular with marble-white polished pillars, yet gleaming
golden from The Sacred Fire Within. At the center is an altar also of white-marble, raised on a dais, reached by stairs of crystalline-silver. Above the altar, burns The Sacred Fire, illuminating all in a brilliant light radiant with angelic feeling and purpose. Upward on the concave ceiling are many pretty stained-glass windows, each with lovely symmetrical designs, each honoring ideals and virtues to aspire towards.
As we reach the altar, we look upward and face the intense blaze from above, combusting much as a miniature sun-star might burst forth. Immediately intense spiritual emotions are ignited and in awe and humility, we kneel upon the dais. For we are overcome with the need for transformation.
You see, we bring into this sanctum the remnants of the darkness that clings to our aura from the outside, and the inner darkness by our own mistakes we have created. And it is now that such darkness is in direct opposition to purpose and reality f this shrine, by extension, our own being and our relationship with The All-Highest Spirit, Our Creator! Here one must choose: LIGHT or DARKNESS!
“Let there be Light!” goes the ancient refrain and so naturally, here in the holy of holies, our spirit-soul ignites dramatically, intensely with The Sacred Fire Eternal! Within and Beyond!
The All-Highest Reigns Supreme! Instantly our acquired darkness burns away, painfully but invigoratingly — indescribably harmonizing
mind and heart, spirit and soul, all in a wonderful flash.
We begin to breathe easier and more deeply. Our worries are now replaced with angelic faith. Our fears have been changed into heavenly resolution. We shall fulfill our destiny, the reason why we were created by Our Creator! To serve and love! To love and serve! Truly we now have all the power in heaven and earth to do just this!
We lift our hands and look upward to gaze directly into The Sacred Sun of Fire now above — aflame and even more fiercely resplendently burning, enlarging its photosphere to engulf us as well as the entire chamber. In response to this wondrous transformation transcendent in tone, we dance, we sing, we chant, we whirl, we pray—all very fervently, all
with renewed devotion to Our Life and to The All Life, Our Creator, Our Great Spirit of All The Universe.
Due to our tempering in this fiery forge, the Sun of Suns, we shall live each immortal moment with the wish and will to share our love, help our fellow brothers and sisters, in ever more realized ways to do so. So blest, so we are!
