Spiritual

The following Spiritual Map reflects the Spiritual Geography that is thoroughly described here, just as the physical maps reflect the Physical Geography, and the Internal Map its internal layout, which together make up the “PSI of Book of Mormon Geography.”

The Spiritual Geography is very important because The Holy Book of Mormon is primarily a spiritual record of God’s dealings with the people described therein. Those offering geographical models without reference to the spiritual are missing the mark.

Behold what wealth the sacred record tells of the spiritual—for those with “eyes to see and ears to hear” (Isa.6:10, Jer.5:21, Eze.12:2), which is difficult while functioning under the curse of a darkened mind:

54 And your minds in times past have been darkened because of unbelief, and because you have treated lightly the things you have received—
55 Which vanity and unbelief have brought the whole church under condemnation.
56 And this condemnation resteth upon the children of Zion, even all. (D&C 84)
