I'm in Bodhi's gauntlet. I don't have a stake which you need to get the hand to open the statue. It seems there is NO DAMN STAKE on this level. So I'm trying to learn how to do add an item into the game. I know the code for the stake, but don't know the procedure for getting it to my character. What is the CLUA console? Is it built in, or something I have to download? Someone please help. I can't believe the developers would let you get stuck in a place without giving you the means of escape.

I can't believe that people would think the developers are that mean. ;)

There is a stake in that area, go kill the Kobolds where you got the crystal shard. One of them holds a wooden stake.

The answer to your CLAU thing is on the TGweb site, but you need to open up the baulder.ini file in the bg folder its also named baulder for some people without the .ini part. Then go under Game Options (I think) and type Cheats=1 then it should work. But again check out the cheats section on the TGweb site, it should be there including a list of ALL the items.
