The Processes Of Spiritual Awakening

This 3-part series explores the idea that when viewed as a whole, the Temple presents an image of the structures of the human mind. These structures can be seen in the process of awakening to spiritual life as described in Heaven and Hell between paragraphs 491-520 (PDF) and hence allows us to draw connections to our own experience in our work with the Word, and in what It awakens for us in. The descriptions of Solomon’s Temple can be found in 1 Kings Chapter 5-8 & Chronicles Chapter 3 and 4.

There are three parts to the Temple as also reflected in the three main sections below. Each modules contains a short video between 3-7 minutes and 3-4 reflective questions. You may also prefer to read the all of the video transcripts in one document which you can access here Video Transcripts.
