2016 AUG 16 THE BRIDGE TO ETERNITY

Posted in Shamanism by Dr. Alberto Villoldo 

While practitioners of yoga recognize seven chakras, my mentor, Don Antonio, taught me that we have nine. Seven of them are within the physical body, and two are outside the body. 

He called the eighth chakra the Wiracocha, which is the name of the Creator or Great Spirit (the word means sacred source). 

The eighth chakra corresponds to the Christian concept of the soul, which is personal and finite. Its source is the ninth chakra, Spirit, which is impersonal and infinite. 

We call this center a chakra for lack of a better name. In reality it is the dwelling place of Spirit – the spirit of every thing in the Universe. 

The ninth chakra is the Self that has never been born and will never die. This Self is prior to time, and it never enters the river through which time flows. 

It is prior to space and existed before the Universe manifested. This is the Self that never left the Garden of Eden. 

When this center is awakened, there is a deep, rumbling laugh that echoes over the mountains and thunders across the sky.
