The third, most sacred type of temple. The Mystery of the Incarnation of God; ordination of High Priests
Having gotten to know the second type of temple, we shall move up to. a substantial altitude, which frequently takes up a region of several thousand square miles (GM), in order to acquaint ourselves with the third type of temple.
2
This type of temple normally is erected upon the highest point of a region and oversees between five to seven temples of the second order.
3
Concerning building style, it is hardly four times bigger than a private house and of far inferior height to the first two types; there are indeed some that are not much higher than a private house.
4
Nor is this temple in the form of a ship, but completely round. The round roof is not pointed but of an obtuse pyramidal style, notwithstanding its considerable height; and around its battlements it has a sturdy rail and is paraded with a horn for proclaiming agenda to the surrounding temples of the second order.
5
The interior set-up is similar to private houses, except that in place of the spiral staircase there is a smooth, round white pillar with a girth similar to the previous ones, reaching up to the highest point of the roof and hence carrying same. A spiral staircase skirts the pillar, with two crossing walkways through an opening in the roof to the battlements. At this crossing there is a rotunda around the pillar through which the staircase winds right up under the roof. It is all of great simplicity without decorations, giving it the appearance of a plain board structure.
6
There are no harps upon the walkway, the orchestral part consisting here of four immensely powerful trumpets, whose powerful tone sometimes can be heard for a thousand miles (GM) due to the pure solar air.
7
This temple's floor consists of floorboards whilst the resting benches at the pillar bases resemble your wooden garden benches. The pillars appear like white wood.
8
In short, here there is nothing of outer splendour.
9
Around the temple there are some twenty to thirty small wooden huts without pillars, resembling your alpine huts, except for higher rooves. One such hut always stands next to the temple as a manse for the High Priest. The rest are occupied partly by his family and officials and a few by students; for this temple-school is attended only by those who are themselves prepared to become teachers and office bearers for the lower temples as well as this highest temple.
10
What is taught in this temple? Behold, this is a temple of deepest secrets into which only a few receive initiation. What do these secrets consist of? They consist of making people aware that God is Himself a human and how in this Human, the highest love resides, which created everything there is out of his own power.
11
What else is taught? Here everything most secret and exalted is taught - how God as purest love, upon a planet called Earth (called Pjur upon the sun) became Man, even within a temporal body, living there in greatest and incomprehensible meekness. He allowed Himself to be nailed to a cross and killed.
12
And they add that this occurred at that very time, as all sun people know only too well, when it became completely dark upon their world, which darkness lasted about twelve single great swings; for you must know that people upon the sun attain to a high age, and that even today there are people and especially among the priestly caste, who were witnesses of this phenomenon upon the sun.
13
What would amaze you is a cross upon a hill opposite the temple. Here the sight is that of a well-shaped, authentic looking Mount Calvary. This solar 'Mount of Calvary; nevertheless is surrounded by a circle of trees, called forth from the ground to make it impossible to see it from any side unless one is admitted through the small gate by the High Priest, which is granted only when someone is ordained as a principal to the second temple.
14
This introduction however is not as easy as you may think and whoever desires it has to undergo an intense fidelity test and even taken through the narrow gate, he is still far from the spot and sees as much of Mount Calvary as if he wasn't there.
15
Because immediately behind the wall of trees, which often reach a height of four thousand metres, there is a pond of four hundred metres width and of uneven depth, entirely encircling Mt Calvary: whoever wants to negotiate same has to know the paths which are hidden by the water. Because below water the paths are laid out in such a way that there is only one main right one from which many branch off to sidetracking piers. He who does not know the main path returns along this sidetrack to where he first set foot in the water. Wherefore everyone must probe with his feet whether it is a narrow or a broad path. Only upon the narrowest one can one get to the other bank, whereas one returns to the first bank by every other, making him believe to have found the right path until it suddenly turns leading him back in twists and turns.
16
Therefore negotiating this pond is not as easy as it looks. Having overcome this difficulty, a bigger one awaits him. Some one hundred and forty metres above the substantial round pond a most convoluted path leads through a so-called fire-scrub with the appearance of a burning forest on Earth, except the bushes are of greater height than your highest trees. This fire scrub too has a width of about four hundred metres and runs around the entire hill which is, of course, of greater circumference than one of the highest Alps on Earth.
17
Here it is most difficult to hit upon the right path. Whoever does not find the narrowest one tries in vain as he shall not get through. Quite a few, of course, do hit the right narrow path but shy back from the flames that sometimes arch over the narrow path and try another path where fewer flames are to be seen. This effort however is in vain for whoever will not engage battle with the flames will not reach the place of the biggest secret. But he who does not shy away from this conflict will reach the place along the shortest path well-preserved, then beholding the mystery of the crucifixion from within the greatest love light!
18
Behold, this is then also the ordination to the High Priesthood. Some reference is made to the great Incarnation even in the private dwellings but full revelation of this secret is displayed only here.
19
But what shape all this takes and the context in which it is placed and what it is all about on this solar Calvary we shall consider in our next disclosure. Hence we shall leave it for today!
