THE ATLANTEAN HEALING TEMPLE
The Atlantean Temple of Healing was a circular building. The
only light which penetrated the Temple came through a vast dome
on the roof. This dome was adjustable so that sunlight,either
pure or filtered, could pour in through the roof whenever
required. The dome could also be closed so that no sunlight could
enter the Temple at all.
The entrance to the Temple was rectangular. It was built of
white,glistening stone;stone which looked as if it were filled
with mica and colour, and the heavy crossbeam of stone which
spanned the doorway had sculptured upon it a white swan with its
noble head raised upwards, moving gracefully outward.
There were groups of pillars composed of the precious white
stone,which was bendable but could not be broken,which were
moulded to form a perfect circular upright,and the steps were
rectangular,in the same white glistening stone as the building
itself.
There were no gates,or walls to guard its gardens. The gardens
were filled with blossoms;great beds of marigolds in their
season,tulips,sunflowers,and many of the small,sweetly-perfumed
roses. All gave of their glory for the healing of the people.
Just inside the entrance was a large Timekeeper Crystal. This
powerful crystal protected the Temple from any harmful vibrations
and negativity. It would not allow any person to pass inside the
Temple unless that person had a genuine - and pure - reason for
doing so. The crystal knew everything; nothing could be hidden!
Within the entrance there was a large hallway both to the right
and left. Round the central circle were to be found two wide
passages leading to the three special temples,which were to be
found at the far end of the central building. These temples were
also circular. They were not entered,nor was there any
entrance,from the main temple,but the entrances were through
doorways heavily curtained,opening upon these passages,which
stretched to the right and the left of the main temple.
The central circular temple was a small special temple,where the
healers studied and were trained,and on the right of that temple
was the Temple of Teaching; on the left was the Temple of
Research - not research in the sense that we use it today in
connection with material things, but research into all which
concerned the healing of the body and soul.
All the teaching was undertaken in the Temple of Teaching. All
the training of the healers, where they were used as instruments
and were not required to make use of their mind or brain,was
undertaken in the third Temple.
Students who came to the Temple of Healing were obliged to become
proficient in one of these arts,and were allocated and
placed,either in the Temple of Teaching,in the Temple of Healing
or in the Temple of Research. They were not allowed to follow the
three courses at once; they had to prove their proficiency in
their first choice before they were permitted to take a second
course,in one of the other temples.
The central Temple of Healing was built over a lake,and you will
find its counterpart very often today in the swimming pools which
can be covered by a wooden floor, but in this case the floor was
of amethyst,warm to the touch of naked feet,and radiant with
light and power.
At the entrance to the central temple were the robing rooms for
the priest healers,the students and the novices; all built of
glistening white stone,and,although austere,very beautiful in
harmony of colour and design.
Between the robing rooms, which were very similar to cubicles one
would find in Swimming Baths, was a passageway where there were
further cubicles which were used for the cleansing and
purification of the patients' bodies.
Healing, in the time of Atlantis, did not take place in a matter
of a few minutes as is the case today; a patient would be
required to visit the Temple many times for the purification of
their physical body. Their hair was cut to the nape of their neck
during their period of healing and,following baths in plain
spring water,they passed through baths of perfumed warm
water,before being given the white linen robe,in which they had
to appear before their healer.
In the first of the smaller chambers of healing,the patient had
to pass through the purification of the etheric body,and
there,the healers,with their powers of clairvoyance and
intuition, strengthened by their service in the Temple,would
look for any dark places,or lack of light in the chakra and in
the etheric body as a whole. The patient would only be permitted
to go forward into the next healing chamber when the priest-
healer in charge of this particular room could report that the
patient's etheric body was completely cleansed and full of light.
In the next cubicle most of the patients would spend very much
longer than in the first one, for here the weariness of the mind
must be released, and as the mind relaxed and the body,in
harmony,relaxed, the patient would talk to his teacher,telling
him of the anxieties that troubled him and the weariness of the
soul which oppressed him.
This is akin to what today we call psycho-analysis and it can be
a very long process indeed. The work, therefore, undertaken in
this mental room was of a truly specialised nature.
Only the greater - and more experienced - priests handled these
patients,and many hours of the day were given up to complete
relaxation and pleasant conversation,and the eating of fruits for
the cleansing of the physical body. In particular the patients
would drink citrus fruit juices and spring water, which played an
important role in the overall healing process.
When the patient had passed all the necessary tests, he would
move out of this second temple and into the temple for the
healing of the physical body, but not until the negative side of
his personality - hatred,jealousy, envy and selfishness - had
been completely overcome; for as long as any envy,hatred, or
jealousy agitates within the mind, the body cannot be considered
whole and cleansed.
In the great central temple there were three daily healing
sessions. In a gallery which ran round the temple below the level
of the windows, were men and women students,who were taught
wonderful music and singing, and in this gallery they would sing
rhythmic chants and spiritual songs whilst the healing sessions
were taking place in the temple below.
Twelve healers under one tutor-priest worked upon twelve patients
at any one time. The beds,upon which the patients lay,were
erected on white marble,built like rectangular boxes;the top was
also made out of the same precious stone which could not be
broken or cut,and each bed was composed of the stone of one
colour,representing one ray.
When the patient left the last healing room, he was given a six-
pointed star in the colour of the bed which he must occupy. This
star he would give to the priest in charge of the patients of the
temple,and it was strapped upon his forehead by the priest so
that the moment he entered the great healing chamber, the healer-
priest who belonged to that particular healing table would
welcome his patient.
As soon as the patient lay upon the healing table,the radiations
of his aura would project,as an emanation round his head and
body,thus lighting up the whole of the corner of the room where
he was lying, and opening for himself the power to absorb the
ethers from the soil and the surrounding light ethers.
If,however,the patient was not able to radiate these ethers, then
the healers standing beside that particular bed would stand
motionless in meditation,until all the other eleven patients had
been treated by their healers, and the patient would then have to
return to the preparation on the mental plane, to learn a further
period of relaxation. This rarely occurred though because
normally all the patients were prepared and completely relaxed by
the time that they reached the great healing chamber.
There were four healers to each bed; the Priest Initiate on the
right,the second priest on the left, the third and fourth
priests at the feet. The Priest Initiate directed the healing and
the two priests at the feet poured power through the patient's
feet from the palm of their hands.
Each healer wore a robe of the colour of his own ray, and a cloak
over his shoulders,also of the same colour. During the healing
session this cloak,taken by the corners,would be turned
back,fastening at the hem by a jewelled clasp.
When the healing session was completed, the patients were allowed
to enjoy a period of relaxation for approximately thirty
minutes.At the end of this period the healers would leave their
patients and the priest-in-charge of the Temple would lead the
patients back to the robing room,where they would be given a meal
of honey in the comb,crushed corn and milk, and sent away to
their own homes.
