Some say Merkaba some say Mer-kah-bah BUT WHAT IS IT?

Some say Merkaba some say Mer-kah-bah  BUT WHAT IS IT?

I’m sure many of you have heard this term used in the growing spiritual and enlightened communities. Though how many of us really know what it is? I've been doing some research so that I could share a bit more background on what this divine symbol really means.

In history it is said that the merkaba is the divine vehicle allegedly used by the ascended masters. Allowing a person to ascend or descend into higher or lower world.  Though the merkaba is much more than just a vehicle of ascension. It seems it can be really a vehicle for meditation transport to anything since this is a primal pattern created by all things in the universe both visible and invisible.

A better translation of this word is “mer” which means light, “ka” means spirit, and “ba” means body. So this essentially means it is a vehicle for the light spirit body, which can transport ones spiritual body from one dimension to another for study or growth.

The merkaba consists of two equally sized, interlocked tetrahedrons of light with a common center. Where one tetrahedron points up and the other down. This point symmetric in form is then called a “stella octangula” or stellated octahedron which can also be obtained by extending the faces of a regular octahedron until they intersect again.

Drunvalo Melchizedek describes this figure as a “star tetrahedron” since it can be viewed as a three dimensional version of the Star of David. When imagining the two superimposed star tetrahedrons counter rotating in movement with each other along with some specific “prana” breathing technique it is taught that a person can activate a non-visible “flying saucer” like energy field around the human body so that it is anchored near the base of the spine. Once activated this field is said to be capable of carrying ones consciousness directly to higher or even lower dimensions.

There is a very specific teaching of spherical breathing using 18 breaths that was given to us be Drunvalo Melchizedek which I hope to release in more depth in an upcoming article or video.

The term markaba is also a Hebrew word for “chariot” and has been used in the bible in Ezekiel 1:4-26 and refers to the throne or chariot of God, and the vehicle used by the four Cherubim to reach our dimension. Some of the earliest mentions of the merkaba were through prophetic visions of God in the heavens and used by the heavenly creatures surrounding God.

In more modern times there are classes and workshops given for Merkaba Light Activations. In which the learner will have a chance to be walked through activating their own personal merkaba with proper breathing techniques and meditation. For more information on such classes or workshops feel free to look them up in your local area or contact Guide Nick Bryce via Project Bring Me to Life, who also holds Merkaba Monday events at the Universe Building in Detroit Michigan.
