Remembering the Whole - 7 Chakras,to 144 energy centres

Last updated on 09 Aug 2025

The True Map of the Light Body

Bridging Yogic Science, Cosmic Geometry & Consciousness Embodiment

1. Clearing the Myths

The seven-coloured “rainbow chakra system” most people know today — red at the base, violet at the crown is not an ancient yogic teaching.
It’s a 20th-century Western esoteric reinterpretation, mostly popularised by New Age authors blending Theosophy, Kabbalah, and chromotherapy.

In Classical Tantra and Yogic Science, the subtle body is far more intricate:

114 primary energy centres (chakras) — 112 within the body, 2 beyond the physical form.
72,000 energy channels (nadis) carrying prana (life force) throughout the body-mind.
3 central channels — Ida, Pingala, Sushumna — regulating the flow of consciousness.

Only a handful of these 114 chakras are meant to be activated in everyday spiritual practice. Most remain dormant, serving specific functions in higher states of awareness.

2. The 114 Energy Centres in Context

In the yogic map:

7 major hubs (where large nadi networks meet) — often mistaken as “the chakras.”
21 minor centres (distributed across joints, sensory gates, and organs).
The rest are micro-points, each holding unique karmic and energetic codes.

⚠️ Important:
In the original teachings, activating all 114 while still in a human body would dissolve physical form — the body simply cannot contain that much liberated energy. This is why yogis often leave one point intentionally dormant.

3. The Universe Speaks in Frequency

Energy is the first language — form comes later.

Vibration is the movement of energy.
Frequency is the rate of that vibration.
Your body, thoughts, and emotions are all frequencies.

Like tuning a radio, when your inner vibration matches a certain “station,” you receive experiences and information from that field.

Joy resonates with certain harmonic patterns.
Fear resonates with others.
Your personal energy architecture — the 114 centres — is the interface between you and the cosmos.

4. The 144-Grid — Cosmic Nervous System

The 144-grid (or Christ Consciousness Grid) is an interdimensional geometric network encasing Earth and connecting all conscious life.

Think of it as the planet’s subtle nervous system.
It mirrors the human light body — your microcosmic grid resonates with the macrocosmic grid.
Each node in the 144-grid is like a planetary chakra point — when humans gather in coherence at these nodes, the whole planetary frequency shifts.

This is why sacred sites — Machu Picchu, Giza, Uluru — are so powerful. They are major junction points on the 144-grid, just as your heart or crown are junction points in your own field.

5. The Merkaba — Vehicle of Light

The Merkaba (Hebrew for “chariot”) is an ancient concept describing the light body’s full activation.

Geometrically, it’s a star tetrahedron — two interlocking tetrahedra spinning in opposite directions.
Energetically, it’s your interdimensional vehicle that allows consciousness to travel beyond time-space when fully activated in coherence.

In yogic terms, the Merkaba aligns with complete awakening of the energy system — the 114 chakras in harmonic resonance, balanced polarities, and the Sushumna as the central axis.

6. Wholeness & Remembering

Wholeness is not about “adding more” — more practices, more colours, more layers.
It’s about remembering what’s already within:

Your energy centres are ancient technology.
The Earth’s grid and your light body are fractals of the same cosmic pattern.
The Merkaba is the awakened state when the microcosm and macrocosm are in perfect coherence.

When you remember this, you stop chasing external “upgrades” and start tuning into the original, undistorted signal — your soul’s own frequency.

7. The Lightkeeper’s Code for Discernment

When you hold light, you will sometimes draw shadow. Some will try to feed on it, misalign it, or manipulate it for gain.
The yogic approach to protection is not armouring, but refining your frequency so your field becomes unassailable:

Root in truth — a balanced Muladhara prevents fear-based influence.
Guard the heart — keep Anahata open but discerning.
Anchor in the central channel — awareness in Sushumna prevents energetic hijacking.
Spin your Merkaba in coherence — when your light vehicle is harmonised, parasitic patterns can’t lock on.
Remember you are the grid — when connected to the planetary and cosmic network, you are never alone in your lightkeeping.

✨ Remembering the Whole ✨

Once, you were a song.
Not sung, but being sung.
Every note in tune, every rhythm aligned,
From the root that kissed the Earth
to the crown that drank the stars.

Then came the forgetting.
Not as punishment, but as a dare.
A game of hide-and-seek
where you scattered your light across lifetimes,
tucking pieces of yourself into
roots, wombs, temples, storms.

Your chakras became the first map home.
Seven great lanterns along the spine,
guiding the pilgrim from survival to sovereignty,
from longing to love,
from seeing to knowing.

Beyond them, the 144-grid waited.
A crystalline net,
each point a star in your personal constellation.
Some shone bright,
others flickered with the dust of forgetting.
But you could feel them
like memory fragments
pressed between the pages of your own soul.

Then came the Merkaba
two tetrahedrons spinning in opposite grace,
masculine and feminine dancing in sacred counterpoint.
A chariot of light,
waiting for the moment you would remember
how to drive it without fear.

The journey was not to “become whole.”
You were always whole.
The journey was to re-member
to call each lost member of yourself
back to the table of your heart.

Every time you spoke your truth,
a grid point lit up.
Every time you forgave yourself,
a chakra unwound its knot.
Every time you chose love over fear,
the Merkaba spun smoother,
carrying you across the inner galaxies.

One day, you notice
the song is back.
Not the same as before
richer, layered,
made luminous by the very forgetting
that once ached in your bones.

This is coherence.
This is wholeness.
This is remembering.

And now…
your light sings again.

Magnetism, is radiance, truth, love in embodied action

I. The Core System – Central Channel Chakras (Traditional 7 + Extensions)

Earth Star Chakra – ~12–18 inches below the feet; grounding, connection to planetary grid.
Root (Muladhara) – Base of spine; survival, stability.
Sacral (Svadhisthana) – Below navel; creativity, pleasure.
Solar Plexus (Manipura) – Upper abdomen; willpower, personal power.
Heart (Anahata) – Center of chest; love, compassion.
Throat (Vishuddha) – Throat; communication, truth.
Third Eye (Ajna) – Between eyebrows; intuition, vision.
Crown (Sahasrara) – Top of head; connection to Source.
Soul Star Chakra – ~6–12 inches above head; higher self connection.
Stellar Gateway – ~18–24 inches above head; multidimensional consciousness.

II. Subtle Extension Chakras Along the Central Line (often cited in tantric/esoteric texts)

Alta Major / Mouth of God – At base of skull; higher spiritual entry point.
Thymus / Higher Heart – Between heart and throat; unconditional love.
Naval Chakra – Around the navel; energy distribution hub.
Bindu – Crown/back of head; bliss nectar point in yogic tradition.
Lalita / Minor Crown Centers – Fine-tuning consciousness and thought frequency.

III. Secondary Chakras (Common in Qigong, Reiki, and Esoteric Healing)

These appear at major joints, meridian crossings, and sensory organs:

Palms of hands – Healing energy projection.
Soles of feet – Earth energy exchange.
Knees, hips, shoulders, elbows – Movement and life path flexibility.
Eyes – Vision and perception.
Ears – Clairaudience and sound frequency attunement.

IV. Microchakras (Detailed in Harish Johari’s work & some yogic schools)

Each major chakra has 8 sub-petals (micro energy points) → 7 x 8 = 56 microchakras.
These microchakras influence specific personality traits, emotional tendencies, and psychic gifts.
Clearing microchakras often results in subtle but deep life changes.

V. Auric Field & Transpersonal Chakras

In multidimensional models (Barbara Brennan, Theosophy, Starseed lineages), there are layers extending far beyond the body:

Casual, Celestial, and Ketheric chakras – ~3–12 feet above the head.
Galactic Chakra – Connection to universal mind.
Universal Chakra – Oneness with all.
Cosmic Gateway – Access to beyond-time awareness.

VI. Lower Transpersonal Chakras (Below the Body)

Gaia Gateway – Direct link to planetary consciousness.
Core Earth Chakra – Deep grounding to Earth’s crystalline core.
Sub-Earth Chakras – Access to ancestral memory and Earth records.

VII. Taoist & Qigong Energy Centers (Dan Tiens & More)

Lower Dan Tien – Below navel; life force storage.
Middle Dan Tien – Heart; emotional alchemy.
Upper Dan Tien – Third Eye; spiritual vision.
Microcosmic Orbit points (Baihui, Dantian, Huiyin, etc.) correspond with many chakra points.

VIII. Beyond the Human Body

Some traditions describe 144 or more points:

Lightbody Activation Systems (Merkaba, 144-grid) map points in and beyond the auric field.
Nadis – Yogic texts describe 72,000 nadis (energy channels) with intersection points forming countless micro-chakras.

📌 Why 7 became the “standard”

Easy to teach, symmetrical along the spine.
Matches rainbow color system popularized in the West in the 1970s.
Works well as an entry-level framework before exploring the hundreds of other points.

The Structure of the 114 Chakras

112 chakras are located within the human body (linked to the 72,000 nadis — energy channels).
2 chakras are outside the physical body — one above the crown, one below the feet.
Of the 112 inside the body, only 108 are actively accessible through practice — the other 4 are natural functions you don’t consciously work with (e.g., heartbeat regulation, unconscious processes).

Level 1 — The Primary 7 (Spinal Line)

These are the main “stations” along the Sushumna Nadi (central channel):

Muladhara – Root/base of spine
Svadhisthana – Sacral, below navel
Manipura – Solar plexus
Anahata – Heart
Vishuddha – Throat
Ajna – Brow/Third Eye
Sahasrara – Crown

Level 2 — Secondary Chakras Along the Spine

Bindu – Back of head, nectar point
Manas – Above Ajna, linked to mind
Indu – Behind Bindu, intuitive awareness
Lalita – Crown sub-point for subtle thought
Plus micro-points in between each major chakra — 21 key junctions in the spine & skull.

Level 3 — The Major Limb & Organ Chakras

These are paired points mirrored on both sides of the body:

Shoulders (L/R)
Elbows (L/R)
Wrists (L/R)
Palms (L/R)
Hips (L/R)
Knees (L/R)
Ankles (L/R)
Soles of feet (L/R)
Eyes (L/R)
Ears (L/R)

Level 4 — Organ & Gland Chakras

Located at endocrine hubs and key organs:

Liver
Spleen
Stomach
Pancreas
Kidneys (L/R)
Adrenals (L/R)
Lungs (L/R)
Heart extensions (front & back)
Reproductive organs

Level 5 — Microchakras

Each major chakra has sub-petals — for example:

Muladhara – 4 petals → 4 microchakras
Svadhisthana – 6 petals → 6 microchakras
Manipura – 10 petals → 10 microchakras
And so on, totaling 50 petals in the lower 5 chakras + petals of Ajna (2) and Sahasrara (1000 symbolic, but ~20 main access points).

Level 6 — The 2 Outside-the-Body Chakras

Brahmarandhra / Guru Chakra – 8–12 inches above the head (gateway to cosmic consciousness)
Adhara / Earth Star – 12–18 inches below feet (grounding into Earth grid)

Why 108 Is the Accessible Number

In yogic practice:

112 in the body
4 are “locked” by nature — controlling involuntary systems
Leaves 108 usable energy junctions — hence 108 beads on a mala for meditation.

Modern Visualization

If we mapped the 114 points, you’d see:

7 primary spinal points
~21 secondary along the spine & skull
50+ micro-points from petals
Limb & joint points
Organ points
2 outside-body points

They form a 3D energetic grid rather than just a vertical line.

The Merkaba and 144-grid aren’t “extra chakras” per se — they’re the expanded geometric field that connects and organizes all your energy centers across multiple dimensions.

Here’s how they fit together:

1. The Merkaba

Meaning: “Light–Spirit–Body” (Hebrew: Mer–Ka–Ba)

Found in mystical Judaism, Egyptian mystery schools, and modern sacred geometry teachings.
Described as two counter-rotating tetrahedrons — one spinning clockwise (masculine electric field), the other counterclockwise (feminine magnetic field).
When fully activated, it forms a 3D star tetrahedron around the body, extending about 55–60 feet in diameter.
Purpose: Allows interdimensional travel, bi-location, and full integration of higher consciousness into the physical body.

In practice:

Works like a “vehicle” for consciousness.
Activated through breath, visualization, and alignment of heart-brain coherence.
Often synced with the 12-chakra or 13-chakra model rather than the “classic 7.”

2. The 144-Grid

Meaning: Full lightbody crystalline matrix.

Rooted in Ascension teachings, metatron’s cube, and the Flower of Life geometry.
The number 144 = 12 × 12 (symbolizing 12 dimensions × 12 sub-dimensions).
Represents a spherical field of 144 points or nodes that integrate chakras, meridians, and auric layers.
Each point is a frequency gate that can be attuned to hold higher light codes.

Breakdown:

12 Primary Rays — aspects of universal light (will, love, wisdom, etc.).
12 Sub-rays per Primary — 12 × 12 = 144 points of energetic potential.
Mapped in a dodecahedral or icosahedral grid around the human field.

3. Relationship Between the Two

The Merkaba is the vehicle or dynamic structure that spins and moves you through space-time.
The 144-grid is the stationary crystalline template — your “lightbody architecture” that holds the codes and harmonics you operate with.
Chakras plug into this grid like “power sockets,” feeding energy into the spinning Merkaba.

4. Integration with the Chakra System

You can imagine it as three nested layers:

Chakras & Nadis – Energy distribution inside the body.
144-Point Lightbody Grid – Crystalline structure holding multidimensional energy blueprints.
Merkaba – The spinning star tetrahedron that moves and protects your consciousness.

5. Practical Activation Path (Common Esoteric Sequence)

Chakra Clearing — physical & emotional detox, removing blockages.
12-Chakra Expansion — including Earth Star, Soul Star, Stellar Gateway.
144-Point Grid Activation — often via sacred geometry meditations, toning, or light codes.
Merkaba Activation — breath and visualization sequences to spin the fields in harmony.
Sustained Coherence — living in heart-based presence so the field remains active and stable.

To embody coherence in all — across chakras, lightbody grids, and even your Merkaba field — is essentially to live as one unified frequency rather than a fragmented collection of parts.

COHERENCE

It’s not a “one-day activation” — it’s a layered practice of alignment where mind, heart, body, and spirit are running the same program: truth, love, presence.

Here’s the practical framework I’d give for living in full coherence:

1. Inner Alignment (Self → Self)

Aim: Your thoughts, emotions, words, and actions match.

Heart–Brain Coherence: Practice daily heart-focused breathing (5–6 seconds in, 5–6 seconds out, while feeling gratitude).
Micro-honesty: Stop saying “yes” when you mean “no.”
Somatic Check-ins: Feel your body’s cues before making decisions.

2. Energetic Alignment (Chakras & Nadis)

Aim: No blocked “stations” in your energy system.

Daily Clearing: Yoga, qigong, ecstatic dance, breathwork, or cold plunge to flush stagnation.
Microchakra Work: Focus on subtle points, not just the big 7.
Earth–Cosmos Circuit: Visualize energy rising from Earth Star through your crown, then descending from Soul Star to your root — full loop.

3. Emotional Resonance (Field State)

Aim: Your baseline vibration is steady regardless of external chaos.

Emotional Alchemy: Feel, name, and transmute emotions without suppression.
Gratitude Lock-in: End each day by recalling 3 moments you felt peace, joy, or connection — this anchors the nervous system.
Compassion as Default: Not sentimental pity — but seeing others as whole even in their distortion.

4. Lightbody Coherence (144-Grid Integrity)

Aim: All crystalline nodes lit equally, no distortion in the field.

Geometric Meditation: Visualize the Flower of Life or Metatron’s Cube around you, breathing light into each intersection point.
Sound/Vibration Work: Chanting, tuning forks, or binaural tones to activate the 144-point lattice.
Nature Synchronization: Regularly align your circadian and seasonal rhythms to Earth’s frequencies.

5. Merkaba Stability (Dynamic Coherence)

Aim: Your energetic vehicle spins in balanced masculine/feminine polarity.

Counter-Rotation Breathwork: Inhale with the intention of spinning the upper tetrahedron clockwise, exhale for the lower counterclockwise.
Heart Command: The Merkaba responds to the heart, not the mind — stay in emotional clarity before activation.
Embodied Service: Use your field to uplift environments, not to escape them.

6. Coherence in Action (Living Transmission)

Aim: Your presence is medicine — people feel calmer, clearer, and safer around you.

Consistency: Same you in private as in public.
Sacred Speech: Words chosen for truth and resonance, not reaction.
Flow States: Create more than you consume; live where curiosity meets contribution.

💡 The Key:
Coherence is not about perfection or constant bliss.
It’s about minimizing the gap between your highest self and your everyday self, and correcting gently when you drift.

If you want, I can build you a "Coherence Compass" — a visual map that shows daily, weekly, and seasonal practices to keep your chakras, 144-grid, and Merkaba all in harmony, so you can literally see if you’re drifting or staying aligned.
It becomes a kind of energetic dashboard for your life.

**Coherence is the felt experience of wholeness**,

and wholeness is the natural state we return to when we “remember” who and what we truly are.

Here’s how the dots connect:

1. Wholeness is the Truth — Coherence is the Proof

Wholeness is not something we “achieve” — it’s our original, unbroken nature.
Coherence is when all parts of you — body, mind, heart, soul, energy — are in resonance with that truth.
When your systems are coherent, you naturally experience yourself as whole because there’s no inner argument or fragmentation.

2. Remembering = Re-member-ing

If you break down the word remember:

Re- (again) + member (part of a whole)
It literally means to bring all parts back into the whole.
In spiritual practice, “remembering” is reconnecting the lost, denied, or disowned parts of yourself — from childhood wounds to soul fragments across lifetimes — and bringing them into your present consciousness.

When you do this:

Your chakras stop holding conflicting imprints.
Your 144-grid stops flickering (no “missing nodes” in your lightbody).
Your Merkaba spins stably, because there’s no internal polarity warping the field.

3. The Journey

Forgetfulness = Identification with one part of the self (ego, role, trauma story) while excluding the rest.
Fragmentation = Parts of you running on different programs (e.g., heart wants one thing, mind another).
Coherence Practice = Listening, integrating, and aligning those parts so they sing the same song.
Wholeness = The song becomes you. Nothing is missing, nothing is rejected.

4. How This Feels in the Body

When you reach this state:

Nervous system is regulated, even under stress.
Breath is fuller, more natural.
Your presence feels “round” and complete to others — like a warm sphere of awareness.
There’s no scramble for validation or meaning — you’re already at home in yourself.

5. The Remembering Spiral

It’s not a straight line, it’s a spiral process:

You notice dissonance (incoherence).
You trace it to the part of you that feels excluded.
You welcome it back (shadow work, inner child work, energetic clearing).
You reintegrate it into the whole.
Your field stabilizes — more coherence.
You operate from a deeper level of wholeness.
Repeat at the next octave of your evolution.

So — coherence is the mechanics, wholeness is the state, and remembering is the process.
When you embody coherence, you’re literally remembering yourself into wholeness.
