The Mystic Focus of Beloved Kamakura pulsates in the Etheric Realm over the Holy Mount Fuji, in the beautiful land of Japan, known also as Nippon, which is a derivative of the early Japanese word meaning 'origin of Light'. This is why Japan is often called 'The Land of the Rising Sun'. The Chinese pronunciation of this native name was 'Jihpen', and was the origin of the English poetical name 'Cipango', and finally resulted in 'Japan'.

Wending our way in consciousness to the Holy Focus in the Etheric Realm, we travel along a Path through magnificent gardens of beauty and delicacy of design of the Oriental consciousness, and come upon what appears to be a tea-house. We rest for a moment as we are greeted by two lovely Ladies who are sisters of this brotherhood. They beckon us to pause for a while and enjoy the view of the surrounding gardens.

There are many groups of chelas, and at a signal from our guide, one of the members of the Retreat, we know it is time to continue on our Spiritual Journey. As we proceed, we realize that we are constantly ascending, as upon a mountain, reminiscent of the pilgrimage which individuals make in the world of form up the Holy Mountain of Fujiyama, the difference being that there is green verdure at frequent intervals.

We are permitted several rest periods after which we experience a gloriously exalted state of being, as we come upon the magnificent gardens surrounding the Temple.

Rising in seven tiers - is the Focus of Beloved Kamakura. The Temple is constructed of a material similar to alabaster, and each tier has the designation of what appears to be a roof extension, with the corners upturned, like unto a Japanese Temple Roof. You have all seen this type of architecture in the outer Temple upon the landed surface of the Earth. At the apex of the Temple is a Flaming Focus of the Sacred Fire which, to the naked eye, is like a Sun.

The chelas actually do not view this, for their vehicles could not stand the Power of this Light, and there is an outer ring of soft White Light like unto the vapor rising over a lake in the early morn.

As we approach the entrance of the Temple, we remove our shoes and don the foot covering provided by an attendant. There is no shuffling or sound in this procedure, it is all accomplished through the rhythmic grace which is the way of life of the true Oriental.

We now wend our way through the corridors in company of one of the hostesses of this Retreat. Our earlier guide has retraced his step to assist other pilgrims (chelas) to the Temple.

Should the thought occur to you about the size of the Temple, and whether it will accommodate the chelas from all over the Planet, the answer is that it most certainly will. The peoples in the Orient have always been imbued with religious fervor, and the counterpart of this Focus which was once upon the landed surface of the Earth.
