Sacred means special.  There is no hiding in sacred but there is the desire to keep special things special.  And that is sacredness.  When something is a secret, there is most likely a value or moral that is being compromised.  Keeping things private, or sacred, is a choice.  Be free of secrets.  They will bind you.  But be mindful of sacredness.  It keeps things special.

Here are your 3 Gems : 

1.  Your body is a sacred temple.  Treat it with great care.  Today make all your appointments for optimum body care.  Get your body care team dialed in!  Over the next 6 months, schedule as many of the following as fits your budget:  dentist, gynecologist, colonic therapist, massage therapist, acupuncturist , nutritionist, yoga teacher private or classes, Reiki practitioner, facialist, chiropractor, etc.  You get the picture.  Your body requires maintenance and care so that it will serve you well for a very long time.  You are sacred.

2.  The mind is also a sacred space and the mind needs to be brushed just like our teeth to cleanse.  There is a beautiful mantra for purification called the 100 Syllable Vajrasattva Mantra.  Vajrasattva means Indestructible Purity or Diamond Purity.  The Vajrasattva practice is a practice for purifying the mind, past actions, karma, and negative emotions and thoughts.  We have negative karma due to the fact that we are simply not yet enlightened.  So, we need to meditate and practice.  The aim is to become more compassionate.  And Vajrasattva makes the mind pure and peaceful.

The short form of the mantra is simply Om Vajrasattva Hum, which you repeat 28 times.

The longer form of the mantra and the translations (taken from Wikipedia) are as follows:

ཨོཾ་བཛྲ་སཏྭ་ས་མ་ཡ་མ་ནུ་པ་ལ་ཡ། བཛྲ་སཏྭ་ཏྭེ་ནོ་པ་ཏིཥྛ། དྲྀ་ཌྷོ་མེ་བྷ་བ། སུ་ཏོ་ ཥྱོ་མེ་བྷ་བ། སུ་པོ་ ཥྱོ་མེ་བྷ་བ། ཨ་ནུ་ར་ཀྟོ་མེ་བྷ་བ། ས་རྦ་སི་དྡྷི་མེ་པྲ་ཡ་ཙྪ། ས་རྦ་ཀ་རྨ་སུ་ཙ་མེ ཙི་ཏྟཾ༌ཤེ་ཡཿ་ཀུ་རུ་ཧཱུྂ། ཧ་ཧ་ཧ་ཧ་ཧོཿ བྷ་ག་བ་ན ས་རྦ ཏ་ཐཱ་ག་ཏ་བཛྲ་མཱ་མེ་མུ་ཉྩ། བཛྲཱི་བྷ་བ་མ་ཧཱ་ས་མ་ཡ་སཏྭ ཨཱཿ །། ཧཱུྂ ཕ་ཊ
