Finding and Creating Places of Divine Connection

"The Ancient People of the Americas were very extensive travelers. Wherever they went and wherever they stopped in their travels, they built Shrines and Places of Worship. They planted crops and located hidden sources of water. The dwelling area was usually surrounded on all sides, by places that marked the rising and the setting of the Sun and the four phases of the Moon. There were Teaching Areas apart from the living area. There were places for men and places for women to practice the functions of their particular sex. Sometimes Council Chambers were established in a cave or an isolated area, where the most important decisions of the tribe and the individual were arrived at and concluded.

There was always an area used to send Blessings upon the people of the tribe. This was an area on a high point of rock, or at a distance where the panorama of the whole village could be observed. These were called, BLESSING WAY POINTS. There were areas at the entrances to the village that were set aside as watching places for the protection of the people from hostile influences, which might otherwise approach unnoticed. There were also HEALING PLACES. Most of the places mentioned were not structures in the true sense of the word. They were more likely than not natural places, which were chosen for the specific function designated to them because of their natural appearance. Perhaps the Sun or the Moon shone upon that place in a particular manner. At other times, a place would be chosen because of its isolation or protective nature.

The HEALING PLACES were almost invariably chosen because of their shape and form, and the manner in which various forces of nature were focused there. Within every Healing Place there were three or four points of healing, where the natural rock formed a similar configuration as the four rocks that were described in the Practice of your last Lesson.

There was a difference however, in that the rocks in the HEALING PLACE were large and massive. Sometimes there were four rocks that formed an Energy Source at the point where the Powers met in the middle. At another place within the Healing Area, one might find three rocks with protrusions on them, forming a line of Power that created a triangle. Within the center of the Triangle of Power, was a NEUTRAL area in which no Power entered. The individual using this sort of configuration sat in the middle – in the NEUTRAL area. This was done so that the Power around them could draw all of the negative causing vibrations out of the body, pulling it from the center outward and drawing it into the Force that was moving about them. These particular areas were used for purging or purification. …"
