What is Merkaba Discover The Union Of Body And Spirit Be Love The Merkaba (meaning light-spirit-body) is the energy sphere in which everything exists. It is the vehicle that carries you to the dimensions of unity and love that exist beyond the mind. The upward and downward interlocked tetrahedrons represent the duality of existence—body and spirit—united in the harmony of a singular form. The top is male, the bottom female. Together, they are one light. Since each of its corner points are equally distant from each of its others, in a sacred geometric pattern, there is no strain or tension in the Merkaba. Only rest and equilibrium. It expresses the potential of a world of community and peace where no one is separate. All are one and one is all. The Merkaba has been shared, taught and utilised for thousands of years and through many ages of life. Every major spiritual system places ultimate power in it. In the Bible, the Angel Ezekiel accessed the three dimensional Merkaba Star Of David to ascend to heaven. In the Torah, it is the chariot, the throne of God. The Zohar, the foundation of the Kabbalah, realises that in awareness and selfless action you bring yourself closer to the very heart of the Merkaba. The purpose of Yoga is to save individual souls from the calamity of separate existence, the same ideal of unity symbolised by the Merkaba. Zen Buddhism is a path to enlightenment focused on meditation, to the same higher consciousness the Merkaba so beautifully represents. Merkaba meditation, first practised in ancient Egypt, consists of 18 spherical breaths, which open the heart to a state of unconditional love that exists beyond the mind, in the realm of oneness. Through this state of oneness, we reflect our mutual light. The Merkaba is the most powerful symbol of spiritual evolution. It is not something you can read or learn about. It is something you must experience. Discover The Light. You Are The Merkaba.
