Temple
From Richard Tarnas’s Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View:
‘No amount of revisioning philosophy or psychology, science or religion, can forge a new worldview without a radical shift at the cosmological level.'
From Stanislav Grof’s Psychology of The Future: Lessons from Modern Consciousness Research:
‘In the last analysis, the current global crisis is basically a psychospiritual crisis; it reflects the level of consciousness evolution of the human species. It is, therefore, hard to imagine that it could be resolved without a radical inner transformation of humanity on a large scale and its rise to a higher level of emotional maturity and spiritual awareness.'
A radical shift at the cosmological level (which this empirical information provides), directly connected to a radical inner transformation of humanity (which this information may provide by acting on it), is exactly that which produces the new worldview that triggers the shift to a higher vibration and a new paradigm.
Arthur Young, in The Reflexive Universe: The Evolution of Consciousness, speaks of this when he talks about purpose inviting the future, our own future being self-determined. Buckminster Fuller gets straight to the point when he says:
‘. . . the physical is always the imperfect experience, but tantalizingly always ratio-equated with the innate eternal sense of perfection – thus the mind induces human consciousness of evolutionary participation to seek cosmic zero.'
Cosmic zero is presently outside of our common experience, but it is where transformation at this level will be found. We’ve come a long way to reach this moment of opportunity and this encoded message at the heart of our solar system is pointing the way. We must consciously add something to the brew from the outside of the paradigm we’ve been living and growing in for all these thousands of years . . . a seed from the future. We have done this many many many times, as life evolved on planet Earth in the past 3 1/2 billion years. Who we were at the time - purpose-driven, yet relatively unconscious and mechanical, propelled by the learned laws of physics and biology - reached the edge of annihilation and somehow found that seed . . . that germ of a new idea . . . adapted, and reached into the future – towards something that who we were could not possibly have envisioned
This 'seed’ is what Rupert Sheldrake calls the germ of a new morphic field . . .
'Something that initiates development or serves as an origin.'
At this stage in the billions-years-long trajectory of the evolution of consciousness on this planet, the action needed must be an intentional act by the evolved beings who have achieved self awareness, free will and the ability to create . . . us. The ultimate goal here is to create a new morphic field . . . and this can only happen if there is an original germ, or seed, around which to form this field. What follows describes in detail what this seed might be.
We live in an infinite Universe whose engine, or purpose . . . to awaken . . . has driven it from oblivion to enlightenment by the use of unimaginable, explosive . . . energy.
Originating from the original explosion out of the Stillness unknown eons ago, the process of learning begins . . . the photon . . . the electron . . . the atom . . . the molecule . . . we learned how to do that through successive universal attempts. We evolved . . . we were awakening.
Stars on fire, supernovas, asteroids crashing, molten cores, volcanic explosions, infinite space,
black holes . . .
The Awakening Energy
. . . ultimately creating the more complex elements that make possible the lifeforms found on
Earth
Plants . Animals . Humans
The human experience on this planet - self-awareness, the ability to create, self-will - ultimately culminates in the more enlightened expressions of empathy and compassion through the experience of our collective interconnectedness, our Oneness.
And here we now are, after 3 ½ billion-years of the evolution of life on this planet, 3 ½ billion-years of eat-or-be-eaten, tooth and claw, survival/fear based reality . . . finding ourselves in desperate need of weaning ourselves from the remnants of the reptilian brain that got us here before it is too late. We are now at the stage where the chrysalis transforms into the butterfly . . . or not.
In the sections that have preceded, it has been shown that while our Universe is infinite, our planet Earth is not, and that while in the past our resources seemed limitless, we now find that the general level of human consciousness on this planet, combined with the need to support 8 billion people, is decimating our forests and oceans and atmosphere and threatening all complex life on Earth.
It has been shown that the eons-long process of the evolution of consciousness in the Universe has produced a fully-enlightened awareness, or intelligence, with the capability of creating, like a walled garden, a solar system . . . a planet . . . to accelerate this process.
More importantly, it has been shown that while our solar system has been precisely designed to further and accelerate the evolutionary process, there was awareness at its inception that the archetypal interval we are now experiencing is inevitable . . . and embedded what is essentially a Hail Mary pass in the dimensions of the Earth, Moon and Sun – a communication to evolving consciousness on Earth regarding the unequaled importance of expanded, enlightened consciousness - to be used when all else has failed.
The world that we live in is the result of the choices we've made in the last 12,000 years. We have failed, and many of the most enlightened of us say that nothing can alter the direction we're headed without some kind of global transformation of consciousness.
The Stillpoint geometry at the heart of this communication is the
Portal
between worlds.
Between the implicate, Limitless Mind of God reality on the other side of the Stillpoint veil, and the explicate reality of the manifested Universe – the world we are alive in . . . the world where the evolution of consciousness happens.
I believe that we are being guided to open this portal, exposing evolving humanity to the almost infinitely refined frequency of enlightenment and love of the now-proven, evolved, higher intelligence responsible for our being here . . . raising our collective consciousness through
Resonance
So . . . how to open the Stillpoint portal?
Historically, access to this more refined, more divine, higher frequency include
Writing . Music . Painting . Film
‘The great works of art, music and architecture which have come down to us through the centuries are enduring representations of the effect of high attractor patterns*. In them we see a reflection of the commitment of the master artists of our civilization to perfection and grace, and thereby to the ennoblement of humanity. The fine arts have always provided the venue for man’s highest spiritual strivings in the secular realm. It has been the role of the arts to realize, in physical media, ideals about what man could and should be, to set down in tangible form, accessible to all, a distilled expression of the human spirit.
But of all the arts,
Architecture
is the most tangible and influential in the lives of men everywhere.’
*In the mathematical field of dynamical systems, an attractor is a set of states toward which a system tends to evolve.
I believe that we are being asked to open this portal by consciously bringing Spirit into Form through an architecture that transcends the normal definition of the term:
'The art or practice of designing and constructing buildings.’
An architecture whose purpose mirrors that of the Great Pyramid, each expressions of the
Still . Point
While the Great Pyramid was built to provide evolving humanity with an analog of Earth and much more - a signpost critical to the communication - the timeless architecture now being proposed is an attempt to open the Stillpoint portal to raise global awareness through resonance with this now-proven higher consciousness.
From Stillpoint:
Architecture has been humanity's principle method, for thousands of years, to communally create connection with what has been called 'God' - and what is here called EVOLVED HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS. This architecture is an attempt to create this connection, this opening, for the entire world's population.
There is a very long list of breathtaking architecture that sought to mirror the awe, silence, and timelessness associated with this presence as we reached upwards in our longing . . . what Le Corbuisier called the 'ineffable' and Louis Kahn called the 'immeasurable'. Beginning with the Great Pyramid, there is Chichen Itza, Angkor Wat, the Hagia Sophia, the Chartres/Amiens/ Salisbury/Notre Dame cathedrals, the Potala, the Taj Majal and on and on and on. Only architecture has the capacity to capture the depth and scope of this longing on a global scale and in a relatively permanent way.
More than any other artistic, human, handmade thing, it is architecture that communes most intimately with the pool of human understanding of handmade things in its reach towards the heavens. And spiritual architecture is a communal experience – its construction can not be done alone. This is its particular beauty – as with barn-raising of ‘old’ - and so appropriate for the task at hand.
Man models himself on the Earth
Earth on Heaven
Heaven on the Way
And the Way on that which is naturally so

The architecture proposed is a seed for a new morphic field, a new paradigm, and is modeled on the deepest and truest expression of ‘that which is naturally so’ . . . the:
Still . Point
If what has been presented convinces you that we are being asked to open this Stillpoint portal, I implore you to ask yourself how this might be accomplished, and if there is a credible idea to please put it forward.
For now, this is the purest response I can imagine . . . the Mesa Temple . . . the 'seed’ of a new morphic field:
From Mouni Sadhu’s The Tarot:
‘Tourbillons, or vortexes, are astral creations of force which are the bases of all astro-mental realizations. Tradition ascribes the funnel-like forms to them. Knowledge of the laws ruling over the tourbillons and their construction is one of the foremost principles of magic. The most guarded secrets of Hermetic magic are: finding the point of support for the tourbillon on the physical plane, and the formula of transition from the astral to the physical world.’
What follows is one idea of what this formula of transition might be.
Finding the point of the tourbillon on the physical plane is a story for another time . . .
except, once again, from Isaac Newton’s translation of the Emerald Tablet by Thoth, or Hermes Trismegistus:
'The Sun is its father, the Moon its mother.
The Wind [the torus] hath carried it in its belly, the Earth its nurse.
The father of all perfection in ye whole world is here.
Its force or power is entire if it be
converted into Earth.’

From John Michell's Dimensions of Paradise:
'The legendary Temple of Solomon was designed on the principle that 'like attracts like', on the understanding, as Plotinus put it, that if one wishes to attract any aspect of the universal spirit one must create a receptacle in its image . . . the symbolic features of the temple were intended to assist the purpose for which the building was designed, as an instrument of invocation . . . the legend and symbolism of, for example, the temple at Jerusalem indicate that two forms of natural energy were involved, one terrestrial, the other from the atmosphere.
Through the ritual fusion of these two elements at certain seasons, a spirit was generated and spread like an enchantment from the temple . . . an alchemical generator and storehouse of sacred energy . . . the sacred marriage of the electrical current from the atmosphere and the magnetic current of the Earth, the mercurial, serpentine spirit which corresponds in the life-system of the planet to the subtle energies of the human body.'

The

upon which all of the geometry and form of the temple is centered . . . is implied by the concavity at the top of this 20-ton megalithic grounding stone . . . the Omphalos.
From Freddy Silva’s The Divine Blueprint: Temples, Power Places, and the Global Plan to Shape the Human Soul:
‘Traditionally, the omphalos is – the navel, umbilicus, the central point. The omphalos designates the center, as well as the power center of the temple. It is ‘. . . the primeval mound, the central stone, and its encompassing temple then becomes a source of initiation and knowledge - the omphalos is the sacred pillar marking all at once the primeval mound, the umbilical cord, with a creator god, and a place where the knowledge can be sourced - the place where the power of the land meets the descending power of a god serving as a focal point of energy.’

The Mesa Temple is as a medicine wheel . . . the never-ending cycle of life . . . oriented to the four directions.
East . South . West . North
The Earth spins to the East, welcoming the Sun at first light.
From Black Elk Speaks: Heȟáka Sápa, Oglala Lakota.
‘It is from this direction that the light of wisdom comes.’
‘Orienting the temple to the energy of specific creative processes enhances the action taking place inside the sacred space. The orientation is typically defined by the direction in which the entrance faces, for it welcomes the energy into the temple’s inner sanctum.
Entrances in the east symbolically face the light of the reborn Sun. Such temples benefit from the purified morning air, and thus represent that element. Dawn is the awakening from darkness, the Sun emanating out of the underworld, the light returning to the land, hence these are temples associated with enlightenment.'

and

The Mesa Temple is a technology based upon sacred principles that guide consciousness towards a higher and higher frequency of awareness through entrainment or harmony with ‘that which is naturally so’ . . . at the deepest levels.
Its success is based entirely upon raising the frequency of global human consciousness through resonance - through the sacred geometry of the temple and most importantly through resonance with the higher consciousness responsible for creating our solar system . . . the bodhisattvic higher consciousness that has left us a profound message having only to do with fully enlightened
Awareness
Once again, regarding the unequaled importance of sacred architecture to effect this level of change, from David Hawkins's Power vs Force:
‘The great works of art, music and architecture which have come down to us through the centuries are enduring representations of the effect of high attractor patterns. In them we see a reflection of the commitment of the master artists of our civilization to perfection and grace, and thereby to the ennoblement of humanity. The fine arts have always provided the venue for man’s highest spiritual strivings in the secular realm. It has been the role of the arts to realize, in physical media, ideals about what man could and should be, to set down in tangible form, accessible to all, a distilled expression of the human spirit.
But of all the arts, architecture is the most tangible and influential in the lives of men everywhere.’
According to Hawkins, as the frequency of these attractor patterns of human consciousness ascends from basic survival, at the number 1, through shame, guilt, greed, etc., at the lower end of the spectrum, up through the higher frequency/calibrations of courage, acceptance, love, joy and enlightenment, calibrating at 1000 at the upper end, the calibrations grow in power -
Exponentially
- meaning that the energy of very evolved, expanded thoughts, feelings, prayers, and meditations are exponentially more powerful than those at the bottom of the spectrum.
If a loving or enlightened thought is almost infinitely more powerful than a hateful or envious thought, how compelling would the exponentially powerful meditations and prayers of hundreds of focused, spiritually expanded people be in a sacred structure based upon the original archetype of the Alpha and Omega, and designed to expand and amplify and transmit these thought-forms be?
The essential purpose of bringing Spirit into Form in this way . . . the construction of the Mesa Temple . . . is to open the Stillpoint portal between dimensions, lifting global human consciousness through resonance with the evolved higher intelligence responsible for our solar system’s creation.
The temple is handmade by a small group of people working together towards a purpose filled with deep meaning . . .
A barn raising.
A structure woven from stone, glass, wood and steel . . . a handmade basket . . .
with the shared intention of
Sacred Space . Sacred Place
The timing of this action, this response, was suggested by John Michell, in his book
'One day, it is said, the Temple will be restored, the sacred world order will again be established and harmony between men and nature will once more prevail. That event, according to all prophecies, will take place at a period of extreme need and desperation.'
There has been no period in the last 12,000 years filled with more extreme need and desperation.
See WHY NOW?
The temple, in its absolute essence, is: ‘ratio-equated with the innate eternal sense of perfection . . . inducing the mind to seek cosmic zero.’ Will it work? There is no way to know on this side of an experiment like this.
It is a courageous self-determined attempt by community/civilization to reach into the future, to reach into a new paradigm. It is our responsibility to consciously reach into our future for the seed upon which the evolution of consciousness and the survival of humanity depend.
It is an experiment that must be made, a ‘threshold that must now be crossed’. Again, from Richard Tarnas’s The Passion of the Western Mind: Understanding the Ideas that Have Shaped Our World View:
‘A threshold must now be crossed, a threshold demanding a courageous act of faith, of imagination, of trust in a larger and more complex reality; a threshold, moreover, demanding an act of unflinching self-discernment . . . [the masculine and feminine] synthesis leads to something beyond itself: It brings an unexpected opening to a larger reality that cannot be grasped before it arrives, because this new reality is itself a creative act.’
As the long arc of the moral universe bends towards justice, time has run out for complex life on planet Earth without some kind of radical shift in human consciousness.
Who we presently are . . . our collective level of global consciousness . . . needs to change.
