Imagine a beautiful limestone temple, of a semicircle, sanded smoothly…with a crystal window on top to let light and the stars in. Imagine massive wooden doors which swing open and the scent of frankincense wafts forth. Imagine several stained glass windows at equidistance from each other which appear around the circumference of the temple…each with different art from various religious traditions, acknowledging the oneness of the Universe, and the Oneness of God. Imagine…

There is but One God in this vast Cosmos, interconnected, interdimensional, whose breadth and scope is beyond the intellect, but unto the ever-reaches of the spanning oceans, of the firmament of the sky surrounding.
Think of the Buddha releasing desire, coming unto spacious Om. Is not Islam practiced similarly in surrendering to the will of Allah? Is it not said that Yahoshua (Jesus) always did what the Father told him to do, and so hence, released his own desires and became a virtuosic instrument? Or as in Taoist thought…doing without doing (Flow, Wu Wei). Also, as with Ancient Egyptian understanding of Ka, and the god known as Amun-Ra. Amun meaning: that which is hidden. Ra meaning: that which is seen. Of all the seen and unseen…of the Most Masterful One.
“Yet these great makings, Prince! Involve Me not, enchain Me not! I sit apart from them…Other, and Higher, and Free: nowise attached! Thus doth the stuff of worlds, moulded by Me, bring forth all that which is, moving or still, Living or lifeless! Thus the worlds go on!” – The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 9, Religion by the Kingly Knowledge and Kingly Mastery
Of how many Earthly spiritual traditions have formed in different climes, of different times, with different tongues and different customs, yet reaching for a perfect union? Reaching for a community Just? Reaching for Love?
Before the Bible, before the Quran, before a word was uttered, there was…and there still is. There will always be. This is what I speak of. This is what I mean when I say Temple of the One.
There is only One. One and only One. One God. One Universe. One Earth. One People. And the unified field theory…the law of which they seek to find in physics (the essential principle) is in fact spiritual. It is Love.
One God. One Universe. One Earth. One People. One Teaching = Love.
Love the Creator, and love your neighbor. Selah
At the root of this is a prophet, obscured, yet conspicuous…who walked with God in a time of great tribulation. He walked with God in devotion and dedication. His name was Enoch.
