It was my privilege, a number of years ago, to speak at a spiritualist church on a topic of my choosing. Given, at the time, my occupation with the nature of chakra energy centres and the characteristics of these different energies, I chose to speak about my understanding of these energy centres and how they related and connected us all to the broader universe we exist within. The analogy that I used was that of a bed sheet, where a bed sheet represents a frequency of light corresponding to one of the chakras.
In the analogy I used, our existence was projected through 7 different frequency bands corresponding to the 7 major chakras. By layering the seven sheets upon each other and drawing them all up into a knot at one point. This knot, I reasoned, could represent ourselves, living within the fields of universal energy. A being existing as a focal point of these universal energies, drawn into a complex combination (the knot). Draw the sheets into more knots and you define a community of focal points of energy complexes (individuals) that relate to each other through their proximity in sharing of the energy fields (sheets). A simple but effective analogy for the energetic view of existence within multiple, interrelated yet distinct frequencies of electromagnetic energy (light).
The different characteristics of light (detailed here) and the variability with which each penetrate and flow through a corporeal entity provides for the variability of characteristics demonstrated within each entity. The proximity of entities within the sheet, determine the amount of influence and distortion each focal point exerts upon another, while viewed from a distance the grouping, distortions and energetic interrelationships can be conceived of as a community sharing common characteristics. With a big enough sheet and perspective, one can consider multiple groups of entities, clustered into regional communities, with the greater the distance between them the less they affect or influence each other, yet they are all interconnected by the sheet. Simple enough?
This morning the local council was due to collect the garbage in our suburb. I had forgotten to put the bins out last night and awoke with a start early this morning at the jolt from my wife reminding me to put the garbage out. She had heard the garbage truck making its way through the streets in the silence of the early morning. Dutifully I arose and wheeled the garbage bin out to the curb to await pickup and quickly returned to bed, intent on another hour of sleep. As I dosed back into sleep, I was cast back to my speech at the spiritualist church and was consumed with a sense of gratitude for the opportunity to share those thoughts and express my insight. In this half dream state, thoughts and ideas extending upon this analogy flooded through my mind including the following:
- All the graduations of the electromagnetic spectrum can be conceived of as sheets layered one upon another in an infinite array. [ Grouped in octaves like the spectrum of light ]
- Different levels of existence include different layers of sheets that are knotted together;
- On the death of the body, consciousness retreats to the highest level sheet (frequency of light) before re-entering material existence as another knot;
- Levels of existence above this one do not include the lower level sheets (frequencies), but include higher level frequencies;
- Realms of existence occur within zones where the prevailing frequencies are most stable and that does not necessarily require a planet;
- The Sun as a source of light (electromagnetic energy) is a point of existence for higher levels of consciousness;
- To preserve physical integrity beyond natural areas of existence, vehicles are necessary for transportation through and beyond areas of non-native frequencies;
- Transportation is not just over linear distances as we perceive it in our realm and is not just for transport through our range of frequencies.
Then I was wondering about the requirement for food and why we must eat food and excrete if our existence is energetic in the spectrum of light. The thought that was conveyed was that the more gross the form of existence the grosser is the source of energy required to overcome the entropy of annihilation of the physical body complex and that a chemical body required chemical inputs to maintain it. That of course implied that higher levels of existence do not rely upon gross chemical constructs of bodily materials and nutritional requirements would be completely different to our own.
Then as I began to finally drift into sleep, I was filled with an urgency to write down my recollection before it was forgotten, so I could convey it to others who may be interested.
Hence, in an obscure but interesting quirk of synchronicity, you find yourself reading this material due to me not putting the garbage out last night and being poked in the ribs by my wife this morning!
May we each find our way out of ignorance and confusion to embrace the mind of pure awareness.
Namaste.
