Turning Cyberspace into Sacred Space. Sacred Space. Opening Sacred Space. Shamanism - Creating Your Sacred Space. Shaman's Journey - Creating Sacred Space. Sacred space is a healing sphere that is pure, holy and safe.
We can create sacred space and summon the healing power of nature anywhere on Earth. Much of our fear and pain derives from the feeling that the world is not a safe place for us. Within sacred space everyone is protected. When we open sacred space, we leave behind the affairs of ordinary life, the bustling world of meetings and schedules, and prepare to meet the Divine. Sacred space allows us to enter our quiet inner-world where healing takes place. There are two powerful ways to create sacred space: calling in the directions and expanding the eighth chakra. Sacred Space of the Ecosphere In the space of the Ecosphere, awareness exceeds that of the self to summon and embrace all of creation. The opening of this sacred space is essentially an invocation, calling the spirits of the four cardinal directions—South, West, North, and East—and Mother Earth and Father Sky.
Ganachakra. Sacred space may refer to:
Temple. A temple (from the Latin word templum) is a structure reserved for religious or spiritual activities, such as prayer and sacrifice, or analogous rites.
A templum constituted a sacred precinct as defined by a priest, or augur.[1] It has the same root as the word "template," a plan in preparation of the building that was marked out on the ground by the augur. Templa also became associated with the dwelling places of a god or gods. Despite the specific set of meanings associated with the religion of the ancient Rome, the word has now become quite widely used to describe a house of worship for any number of religions and is even used for time periods prior to the Romans. Hindu temples[edit] These may also be called by other names, including mandir or mandira, ambalam, kavu, koil or kovil, déul, raul, devasthana and devalaya, depending on the region in the Indian subcontinent and its local language. Hindu temples are large and magnificent with a rich history.
Buddhist temples[edit] Temenos. Temenos (Greek: τέμενος; plural: τεμένη, temene)[1] is a piece of land cut off and assigned as an official domain, especially to kings and chiefs, or a piece of land marked off from common uses and dedicated to a god, a sanctuary, holy grove or holy precinct: The Pythian race-course is called a temenos, the sacred valley of the Nile is the Νείλοιο πῖον τέμενος Κρονίδα ("the rich temenos of Cronides by the Nile"),[1][2] the Acropolis of Athens is the ἱερὸν τέμενος ("the holy temenos"; of Pallas).[1][3] The word derives from the Greek verb τέμνω (temnō), "to cut".[4][5] The earliest attested form of the word is the Mycenaean Greek 𐀳𐀕𐀜, te-me-no, written in Linear B syllabic script.[6] The concept of temenos arose in classical Mediterranean cultures as an area reserved for worship of the gods.
In religious discourse in English, temenos has also come to refer to a territory, plane, receptacle or field of deity or divinity. C.G. See also[edit] References[edit] ^ Jump up to: a b c τέμενος.
