The Importance
         It is good to have a white flowing garment for mediation an for spirit travels. Make it loose enough to be comfortable, like the one worn by seminarians or Sabbath boys, with series of buttons from the neck down to the feet. Women should provide the similar flowing garment, but not exactly the same, for themselves.
         Yellow colour is good for those seeking for spiritual knowledge and wisdom. Others may have a preference of one colour over another, depending on a person’s level of vibration, likes and dislikes. But do not use black garment. Some would reason that mystics wore black in the past and still succeeded. Well, the important point now is that you are hearing from the man who saw God face to face.
         Flowing garment helps you cut off external influences. Also, over time, it conditions your body and spirit in a way suitable and ready for quiet times, meditation, prayer and spiritual travel. Of course, you can visit the heavens several times, before you leave the earth, just as a student can visit home and return to school.
         Keep this robe for meditation, prayer, quiet time or spiritual travel only. You should not wear another person’s robe for mediation or lend your own to others to use. The spiritual vibrations and levels of all individuals are not compatible.
         People should not touch your robe, because if another person touches it or wears it on, the person's influence (aura, vibration and …) will be in the robe. That influence would become an interference or obstacle to your spiritual growth and experience. It is even possible to initiate people into cults by wearing second-hand dresses. If at all people touch it, it should not be from time to time. Should there be need for another person to wash it, the person should remain one particular individual, not several individuals.
         The robe isolates your body and spirit from external influences and disturbances. It provides both spiritual and physical immune defence system from the environment. By meditating under this isolated and insulated condition, you become disconnected from outside influences. In this way, your heart and mind can concentrate on your purpose of mediation, prayer, inquiry or travel. Do not use the robe as an everyday dress, worn from morning till night.
