Black Chakra

Yep, this is the second post for today.
Which means today is a very-not-productive day at the office.


Had an experience yesterday during yoga class. Afraid people might call me crazy if I tell them, so I'm writing this down - just have to let it out!


Been practicing yoga for slightly over a year now - on and off. I thought I'm more into spiritual aspect of it. Started yoga to learn meditation, afterall. But now I'm not so sure what my strength is... not even sure if I have one.

I was in relaxation class, so obviously I started to get in the mood to 'watch my thoughts'. The room, which was very chilly suddenly turned warm. Warm like the air-cond had suddenly been turned off. As just as I started to enjoy them warmth, I heard a whisper in my right ear - "black chakra".

That sure distracted me, so I decided to stay clear of meditating zone. No, actually, it scared the crap out of me!

After class, I asked my instructor what a black chakra is, and he said he's never heard of such thing! Well, I was quite disappointed with the way he looked at me when he said it, and to top it, he seems like he was trying to get as far away as he can from me. So much for someone who's been telling me to stay positive - think positive, talk positive, yada, yada...

Went home (in disappointment) and googled for, what else, "black chakra". Found out it's the 12th chakra, the highest level. It the energy of the Tao, a.k.a. the Void. It's supposed to represent Pre-creation, gives a feeling of just Being (warm, velvet, black) - is that the warmth I felt before the whisper? Take a look at what it is at these pages:

Definitely waaaayyyy to advanced for me!

My gosh, what have I gotten myself into? Have I put myself in a place where I'm not ready for? On my own, now that even my teacher doesn't know about it?

Can I turn back now?
