TREASURES OF THE CAVE

A symbol of the higher emotions and virtues deep within the soul.

"After Adam and Eve leave the Garden of Eden, then, at God's command, gold, frankincense and myrrh are brought by angels, dipped in the water by the Tree of Life and given to Adam as tokens out of the Garden. These are the sacred treasures of the cave." - Book of the Conflicts of Adam.

The Supreme, through His messengers or devas, sends spiritual wisdom (gold), purity or grace (frankincense), and peace or bliss (myrrh); these are vitalised by truth (water) and energized by love (life), and are the fruit of the buddhic nature (the garden) bestowed upon the personality (Adam). They constitute the inner beauty of the soul, which is as a dark cave until it is beheld by spiritual vision, bathed in the light of Truth.
