- The concept of the lower Garden of Aden
has many manifestations, here is one.
- The average person uses only five percent of his mind. The world for
this person is low and shallow, for he doesn’t have the ability
to grasp its large essence.
- When a person meditates he increases the capabilities of his mind. He
can now grasp such experiences as glory, beauty and holiness.
- A person who achieves these states from the side of holiness is always
in a state of greatness.
- It comes out that the Lower Aden is really this same physical world,
when one can transcend to states where he can view its spiritual side.
- Meaning, where ever he walks he views that place from a state of Aden.
- At this level the Cruvim and the revolving sword are the foreign thoughts
the disrupt the mind and lower a person to a state of constriction.
