For several years now the Holy Spirit has taken me to different cultures showing how he was working through them. One time I remember being taken to a Buddhist temple. In one dream I looked upon a Temple that was not really a physical Temple but a spiritual one. It was like the body of a Buddhist and I saw that they had special ways of anointing the body, even the base of the Temple to avoid falling into hell. I believe it was symbolic of the system of Buddhist meditation that keeps the mind from drifting off into hellish realms of thought. This was all very symbolic. I don’t know too much about Buddhism but I do know that they work with their physical body during their meditations. Now the Christian tradition says that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, but most Christians are constantly praying about things. I think God was showing me something in all the dreams about the way other cultures practice their spirituality. It may be that by meditating with the body treating it as a Temple is a better way to go as opposed to constantly bringing a list of prayer requests to God. Maybe that type of attachment is our problem as Christians. I know that Buddhists have a philosophy of living in the present moment and that could be another key that we are neglecting. I think that the Christian church has brought a lot of hell on itself by living outside the present moment myself included and pursuing things outside their own heart. The Bible talks about the heart and I think the Buddhists have meditations for that. Why can’t we come up with something similar? Anyway this is all part of the spiritual journey where the Holy Spirit has been pointing out to me some things that other religions and cultures do better than us. This type of comparison is common both in the new and old testament. If you have a problem with it go through the Bible and see where the Holy Spirit shows comparisons between different religions and cultures. In these situations in the Bible it is made clear that God doesn’t always take sides.
