Guided Meditation • The Middle Pillar & Israel Regardie

The Middle Pillar is a unique and profound meditation popularized by Israel Regardie. Regardie was a writer on Western esoteric traditions and a ceremonial magician during the 1900's. The meditation we explore in this episode is based entirely on Regardie's description in his book of the same name, released in 1930, entitled: The Middle Pillar. During his lifetime, Regardie was a prominent member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. One of the benefits of practicing The Middle Pillar is that it centers you and brings your energies back into balance. This is achieved through the visualization of spheres of energy along the center line of your body, called sephiroth. These spheres are activated using ancient Hebrew names, traditionally believed to represent emanations of the divine. As a memory aid, below are the five sephiroth which The Middle Pillar focuses on, and the respective divine name that is chanted, along with a pronunciation key in parenthesis.  The Middle Pillar: 1. Kether • "AHIH" (pronounced "Eh-he-yeh") 2. Daath • "YHVH ALHIM" (pronounced "Yod-heh-vav-heh E-loh-heem") 3. Tiphareth • "YHVH ALOAH ve-DAATH" (pronounced "Yod-heh-vav-heh El-oah-ve-Da-ath") 4. Yesod • "SHADDAI AL CHAI" (pronounced "Shah-dai El Chai") 5.
