Re: [BardonPraxis] Violet Cord

Dear M,

>> First of all, if anybody knows for sure that Castenada is a loony or
a
liar, please let me know. <<

He writes fiction but like most fiction, there is some rooting in fact.
The trick is telling which is which.

>> Secondly, does anybody know where and how the silver and violet cords
connect to the mental astral, and physical bodies? <<

The silver cord is rooted at the physical umbilicus or belly button
(Water region of the physical body) and at the Water region of the
astral body in roughly the same spatial location. This is the
assimilative and digestive region of both bodies.

The silver cord is a crystallization of the astral materia caused by the
passage of consciousness between the astra-mental body and the vacated
physical body. It is what the Earth region of the mental body shrinks
down to when conscious awareness is withdrawn from the physical body,
focused within the astra-mental body and the astra-mental body is
removed from the spatial location of the physical body.

The violet or purple cord appears when the solitary mental body is
separated from the conjoined astra-physical body. In other words, when
conscious awareness is withdrawn from the Earth and Water regions of the
mental body (i.e., conscious awareness of the physical and astral
bodies), refocused into the Air and Fire regions of the mental body, and
subsequently removed from the spatial location of the astra-physical
body. Consequently, the purple/violet cord is what the Earth and Water
regions of the mental body shrink down to when conscious awareness is
shifted to just the Air and Fire regions of the mental body. The
violet/purple cord is a crystallization of both the astral *and* mental
materia, caused by the passage of consciousness between the
astra-physical and solitary mental bodies.

The connecting points in this case are the umbilical/Water region of the
astra-physical body and the Air region of the mental body.

If one does as I suggest in the Self-Healing Archaeous and first
separates the astra-mental body from the physical and then separates the
solitary mental body from the astral, a much more elastic cord is
revealed which possesses a paler and somewhat less reddish coloration
which I'd call Lavender. The lavender cord is what the *Water region*
of the mental body shrinks down to when conscious awareness has been
focalized within just the Air and Fire regions of the mental body *in
this way*.

The lavender cord is a crystallization of *just* the mental materia,
caused by the passage of consciousness between the solitary mental body
and the astral body. It is rooted in the astral body in the same spot
the silver cord is rooted and in the solitary mental body, it is rooted
in the most receptive and assimilative aspect of the Air region.

>> And is there any way of shifting the locations of the cords? <<

No. These things are determined by Nature. But my question is why in
the world would one even want to do such a thing?

My best to you,
