What is the Blue Lotus Sacrament?
Sacrament vs Tea
Enhanced Experience
Blue Lotus sacramental ceremonies offer a much deeper journey than the more widely known Blue Lotus tea ceremonies, as the alchemical sacrament facilitates greater access to higher states of consciousness and embodiment. The mind may enter hypnagogic or dreamlike realms, enhancing meditation and intuition. The sacrament produces a serene euphoria, deep relaxation, healing and a dreamlike consciousness. Colors appear more vivid, sounds feel richer, touch becomes more sensitive and a communion with the divine opens up…
What to Expect
The Blue Lotus as an alchemical sacrament can support the body, mind, heart and spirit, through enhancing awareness, deepening relaxation and expanding consciousness.
Participants of the Blue Lotus Ceremony can expect a gentle yet profoundly powerful experience tailored to inner exploration, healing and connection.
The experience is a sacred unfolding leading to divine connection and an awakened presence.
A Sacred Sacrament of Awakening
The Lotus Temple carries the lineage of the ancient recipe of the sacrament, decoded from the Egyptian hieroglyphs, scriptures and cosmic memory codexes. A recipe that, as far as we know, has not been replicated by others for thousands of years. Yet at this time of the Golden Age rising, the time has come to bring back the magick of this wisdom tradition and make it available to those who are ready to approach it with deep reverence, respect and preparation.
Our sacrament is a unique blend of the Blue Lotus (Nymphaea nouchali var. caerulea), other herbs, natural ingredients and high alchemy, creating a unique synergistic effect.

Art of Sacred Reciprocity
In the ancient world, temples stood as sacred vessels of abundance, where offerings to the divine were not acts of loss, but portals of multiplication. Precious metals, jewels, fruits, and harvests were given with reverence as seeds of abundance that would expand as the energy of generosity flowed through the sacred structure, blessing the land and returning manifold to those who gave.
The Blue Lotus Ceremony follows this same principle of sacred reciprocity. When you give, you are not simply donating—you are weaving your energy into the spirit of the Blue Lotus offering and the vision of the Golden Age.
In this manner, what you offer with an open heart—multiplies.
Your offering becomes a seed, planted in the fertile soil of ceremony, destined to return to you in seen and unseen ways aligned with the divine currents of abundance.
This is regenerative giving. This is Sacred Reciprocity.
In this spirit, we have separated out our costs—such as what is needed to provide sanctuary accommodation, food, and beverages—from the daily guided experiences. This ensures full transparency, allowing you to clearly see where your contribution goes.
All Donations given go towards:
maintenance and regenerative thriving of the Lotus Temple.
For this the guided experiences are given on sliding-scale suggested donation, giving you the freedom to contribute in a way that aligns with your heart and means. Your generosity directly supports the depth, quality, and transformative power of this journey, ensuring it remains accessible while honoring the true value of the experience.
