From seeker to spiritual adept

[rva_jeremy]

Is there a mystery-filled eighth chakra as well, which if penetrated, leads one directly into the 'all that there is'?

Maybe, I don't really know. Like unity100 said, the eighth chakra for this octave would be the first for the next octave, if that is indeed how this works and I'm not making it all up or forcing the issue too much. You share my curiosity and desire to delve into mysteries by inferring that confirmed patterns in some places will be repeated in others.

This might be useful, but it's not authoritative: as I go through my process of clearing chakras during meditation (essentially just thinking about the location in my body and trying to feel them, sequentially, one through seven, sometimes even thinking of the tone associated with them too) when I get to seven I usually envision a curve out around my body back down to chakra one. To me, this is like a toroidal "torsion field" shape a la Wilcock's work. So I try to step up to the next octave within my own system instead of trying to find a separate eighth chakra outside the system. I just keep walking up the octaves within my chakra system like that until I feel like stopping.

Now, if you're into music theory, or anybody reading this is, what I want to know is: in the diatonic scale there are seven distinct tones to an octave, but there are also the other tones that make up the octave (the chromatic scale). To put it another way: there are twelve black keys between one C on the keyboard and another. I've always wondered if there's any significance to this: whether, in other words, there's a twelve tone octave system. Perhaps these would manifest in a way that would be comparable to the 7-unit octave as the tarot system is comparable to the tree of life.

Total speculation, but you can see why we get along so well, Confused! Just something I wonder about sometimes.

Thank you for taking the time to give beautiful and elaborate replies. I deeply appreciate your spiritual service and accept it with humble gratitude.

I stand on the backs of giants, my friend, who guided me with love and humility. I only hope that I don't introduce distortion through my own hubris. I appreciate the opportunity to talk about these things, and humbly thank you - you may not realize how much service you are doing me.[/quote]
