🌻 The Door to the Inner Temple 🌻

When we want to go on the inner journey, the first requirement is to moderate the personality and to rearrange our own economic, familiar and social situation in a way that we find enough time to be able to turn inside. 

The only way to cross the door to the inside is to serve the fellow beings, without pride, laments and complaints. In this way we can pay back our debts towards life. 

In so far as we serve the fellow beings – plants, animals and men – we can be admitted into the chambers of the inner temple. If we feel the fellow beings as manifestations of the Divine, we come closer to the Divine. 

Otherwise all remains only theoretical knowledge, no matter how much knowledge we have. It is already good if we are at least of use for ourselves.

We only can travel into subjectivity, if we create the habit to turn inward and to calm down the sense activity. 

In this way we develop the observer, and we can observe the thoughts emerging in us. Little by little we dip a bit deeper and develop the subjective mind which explores the inner side of things, the in-sight. 

In time we begin to see what happens in the inner temple. In doing so the sound of OM leads us into the inner chambers.

In the heart centre there is the door to the inner reality, to the frontiers of the inner temple, where there is the Holy of the Holiest, as the wisdom teachings call it. 

In the heart we find the subtle pulsation which is at the basis of the respiration. We can approach it by observing the respiration. When we are together with the pulsation, we can enter the system of the vertebral column. 

It leads us into the etheric column of consciousness, where from head to the base of the spine we find the energy vortices of the chakras. 

When we travel upwards in this column to the ajna centre, we find the inner man, who carries out the pulsation and the intelligent activity as well as the entire body mechanism. We discover ourselves in our inner. 

The outer man or the lower self is only a copy of the inner man or the soul. The connection between the two is done through the yoga path.
