Process of spiritual birth

Here are some lines written by Ilchi Lee about subject in his book. He writes how do we achieve this completion? Let’s skip the amor­phous, esoteric, and new age jargon that passes for spirituality these days. Instead, we can explain the process of spiritual birth using the Chakra system. We can think about this process of spiritual birth as part of our natural anatomy. To initiate the process of our physical birth, the sperm enters through the Jade Gate, the first Chakra, and lodges in the Earth Palace or Womb, the second Chakra. A life is conceived when the sperm joins with an ovum. After nine months of gestation, the physical body matures and is born, once again passing through the Jade Gate. These are the fundamentals of our reproductive system.

Now, let’s think about the spiritual birth process. The sperm is analogous to the seed of the soul, while the ovum is analogous to the divinity within us. The spiritual sperm, or seed of the soul, is not some abstract concept, however. It resides in the heart, the fourth Chakra, intertwined with the presence of energy there. Then where does the spiritual ovum reside? It lives in the sixth Chakra, which is also called Heaven’s Palace. Therefore, the process of spiritual birth is ignited when the spiritual sperm and the spiritual ovum merge in Heaven’s Palace, the spiritual womb within the human body. In order for the merging to take effect, the spiritual sperm, like the physical sperm, must pass through a gate. This gate is the fifth Chakra, or the Soul’s Gate. When the seed of the soul passes through the Soul’s Gate and lodges in Heaven’s Palace, where it meets with inner divinity, a spiritual embryo is conceived. After a process of maturation and growth, the spiritual body is born.
