The Temple of Whollyness offered space to reflect upon how to become more whole. It was an epic central pyramid ‰ÛÒ an 87‰Ûªx87‰Ûª base and 64‰Ûª tall ‰ÛÒ it was designed with sacred mathematical proportions and constructed using innovative building techniques. Unbelievably, this majestic sanctuary was crafted completely out of geometric interlocking wood pieces that fit together without the use of nails, glue or metal fasteners. This soulful destination incorporated a symbolic visual history of the mysteries of sacred places, artifacts and monuments found in nature, religion, and cultures. The Temple‰Ûªs name was derived from the concept that spirituality is a balance between three states of mind ‰ÛÒ to be holy, holey or wholly present. It was a safe haven to wholeheartedly reflect upon how to live in divine power rather than letting polarizing beliefs and the inevitable chasms ‰ÛÒ the holes in our hearts ‰ÛÒ lead us astray from joy.
