The Threefold Sanctuary & Prayers for the Dying

If you wish to extend blessings to a person who is dying you can go and take sanctuary on their behalf, akin to the baptism of the dead by proxy - in fact, taking sanctuary on behalf of the dead can be a prelude to the baptism of the dead.

(See Gnosis of the Cosmic Christ and elsewhere on our website for the discussion of the Threefold Sanctuary of Melchizedek or Faith-Wisdom.)

This can be done indoors or outdoors at an altar or shine – prepare offerings of lights, incense, as well as other offerings, all as inspired.

*If possible, place some talismanic representation of the person you are praying for on the altar or shrine, along with a scroll bearing their name, some verse from the Holy Gospel of hope and a prayer for them.

At the outset sit in primordial meditation, waiting upon the Spirit of Yahweh, and when your are centered and grounded, and moved by the Holy Spirit, call upon El Elyon and the Holy Shekinah of Elyon – light the candles and incense, making offerings to the Supreme and Shekinah of the Supreme, bowing down to God Most High, and praying for the dying and the dead.

Then, envision the Spiritual Sun in your heart center and envision that your body is radiant with the glory of the Spiritual Sun; from the Spiritual Sun envision a ray of light shoot forth, magically appearing as the Luminous Assembly of the Holy Sanctuary.

The Risen Messiah appears in the center, and the four Archangels of the Sacred Circle appear in their Kerubic forms with the faces of the human being, the lion, the eagle and the ox (representing the Holy Gospel); the radiant supernal glory of Metatron is in the height and the rainbow light wheel emanation of Sandalfon is the ground, with the image of Hua in the heart center of Adonai Yeshua. Above the Messiah is the Holy Mother as the Queen of Heaven uplifted, and to his left is Kallah Messiah and to his right is St. Lazarus, with Yohanan the Baptizer before him and below him – surrounding is the Circle of Twelve, and filling the endless space of this Holy Palace are countless tzaddikim and maggidim, all holy saints, and all archangels and their orders of angels being present.

There, right before Yohanan the Baptizer is your Holy Root Tzaddik in Glory Body.

When this Holy Sanctuary appears, envision the dying or dead person in light-body to your right, calling them by name to be present with you – all that transpires with you envision transpiring with them.

Now, pray to Yeshua Messiah requesting the blessings of being received, and give praise and thanks, and then make an offering and bow down three times, and envision the person with you in astral body also bowing down; then pray to the Living Word of the Messiah, requesting blessing and do the same; the pray to the Sacred Circle, the Body of Messiah, requesting blessings and do the same.

This is then done for the inner and secret sanctuary as well: Holy Apostle or Tzaddik, Great Angel and Holy Bride; then Truth Body, Glory Body and Emanation Body.

As this is done envision that the corresponding emanation of Divine Presence and Power rejoices and answers your request, smiling upon you and blessing you with light streams from their Glory Body, and as with you so with the soul of the dying or dead. Your body becomes more and more radiant, becoming translated into pure energy and light, and so also with the astral body of the person dying or dead.

When all is accomplished, envision the fruition and sealing of taking sanctuary and receiving blessings as the magical display of the Holy Sanctuary dissolving into fluid and flowing light and becoming streams forming a seed of Holy Light over your head and the head of the person who is with you, then pouring down into you both – you and the dying or dead becoming one with the Holy Sanctuary.

*If the person has not died it can be good to take some of the offerings, such as some flowers to them, extending these blessings through a talisman. Likewise, whether or not they have died, you may wish to ground this practice on their behalf by taking a scroll and a sacred offering to your root tzaddik and requesting their blessing and prayers for this person – thus, through you they may have a link to a living tzaddik and receive a corresponding blessing.

This practice on behalf of the dying or dead can help to generate the cause of direct contact with a living lineage of Light Transmission in a future life – especially if grounded by seeking the blessing of a living tzaddik under auspicious circumstances.

May all beings be received into the Holy Sanctuary, the Mystical Body of the Risen Messiah; amen.

Shabbat Shalom!
