The Author of 777 VTS insists that the silver-cord and the golden Sutratma-thread are two equally real but entirely different astral cord phenomena!
"The Sutratma is that magnetic link, spoken of in the Christian Bible as the silver cord, that thread of living light which connects the Monad, the Spirit in man, with the physical brain. Sutratma is that magnetic link, spoken of in the Christian Bible as the "silver cord," that thread of living light which connects the Monad, the Spirit in man, with the physical brain. as a sphere of radiant fire, linked with the initiate standing before it by that magnetic thread of fire which passes through all his bodies and terminates within the centre of the physical brain. This silver thread (as it is rather inaccurately called in the Bible, where the description of its loosing of the physical body and subsequent withdrawal is found) emanates from the heart centre of the solar Angel, linking thus heart and brain, that great duality manifesting in this solar system, love and intelligence." Alice Bailey.
The words of the 777-V.T.S. Author in counter-debate: Pointedly, I feel rather perturbed about disputing the beliefs a renowned twentieth century Author of Theosophy, and by no means do I wish to condescend, demean or patronize her; but based upon my own experiences concerning astral-cord phenomena, I feel innately impelled to interject that, for most practitioners of astral projection, the golden Sutratma-thread breaks its electromagnetic bond of cohesion with the brain of the physical body when the astral crown breaks away from the top of the head. Followed by that, an astral-cord immediately manifests from the naval region of the physical-vessel, thus according to my personal out-of-body experiences. I believe that the silver cord can also manifest from other force-center vortexes in some astral practitioners; and there could be pertinent metaphysical explanations as to why. Some say that the head-thread can only be maintained by an OBE master.
The mind-spirit-thread ground, the spiritual-consciousness-thread filter; or the brain: Practically everything that Western science has taught us about the brain, especially in relation to the true consciousness principle and mind, is false! Ones spiritual mind is electromagnetically abridged into energetic cohesion with the brain of the physical-vessel, from outside of the body, though the outer aura. Within is without and without is within. The true mind is not a product of the brain, and nor is it dependent upon the brain for its existence. The consciousness-thread-ground is merely a biological, electromagnetically charged database that inventories residual imprints of the conscious sensory perceptions and thoughts of the incarnate spirit-entity. Ones so called perception of ordinary reality is only a censored product of limited consciousness in which the brain force-centers moderate.
The consciousness-thread-filter entrances, hypnotizes and programs the embodied mind of the incarnate spirit, thus hijacking that entitys true sense of conscious identity. The brain and nervous system are really is more so in possession of the embodied spirit than that being is in possession of the body. Mental vibrations from ones casual mind-spirit are interrupted by the higher frequency EM shield of the ethereal force-centers. The mind is filtered and subjected to counterfeit programs which entrain a false sense of self-effigy, limiting ones consciousness to the confines of the brains biologically inventoried database, which over-rides the embodied spirits extra-sensory perceptions of higher awareness. The brain converts psychic frequencies from ones spiritual mind into sub-conscious transmissions. Sub-consciousness is really consciousness.
Perceiving from through the darkened shades of the brain and its third-eye shield is an altered state of consciousness in itself. The brain solidifies the illusory division between the five senses. The spirit-entity eternally pre-exists the conceptual creation of, as well as pro-exists the death of, its incarnate physical-body. As with all other variations of energy, ones spiritual energy is an inexhaustible power that never dies. Energy can only be channeled, harnessedand recycled. Though all are eternally connected with the eternal source, every spiritual-being is individually possessing of a solely unique frequency of mind that transcends all forms, space and time. In essence, the spiritual-entity has no gender or form; and all forms, space and time are illusory.
Three of the lower brain force-centers:
- The Indu force-center: Situated within the inner-most, back point of the frontal lobe.
- The Manas force-center: Located between where the frontal portion of the Thalamus and the third ventricle intersect, at the center of the brain.
- The Madulla or Talu force-center: Present just below the pituitary gland, where the brain stem meets with the spinal column; at the station where the frontal cerebrum and the fourth ventricle meet. In some meditation practices, the Talu and Anja Shetram are interchangeably focused.
Two of the upper brain force-centers:
- The Bindu force-center: Within the upper-back portion of the parietal lobe of the brain.
- The Nirvana force-center: Within the upper-most region of the parietal lobe of the brain.
These are the 16 Kalas of the brain or spiritual consciousness-ground:
1. Cerebrum
2. Cerebellum.
3. Medulla.
4. Oblongata.
5. Pons.
6. Mid brain.
7. Corpus Colosum.
8. Corpus Stratum.
9. Pituitary Gland.
10. Pineal gland.
11. Thalamus.
12. Hypothalamus.
13. Subthalamus.
14. Metathalamus.
15. Epithalamus.
16. Corad plexuses.
The auric Brahmarandhra force-center: This spiritual force-center is frequently depicted as hovering above the head of ones physical-vessel. It is directly correspondent with the golden Sutratma thread of ones causal or higher spirit-self. There are different interpretations of the Brahmarandhra chakras station; one is that it inter-dimensionally ties into a series of mind-spirit crowns within the higher auric bands. It channels and embodies the incarnate spirits true mind or causal-ego, of which supernaturally archives permanent imprints of ones past and present incarnation astral, mental & physical memories. The Brahmarandhra is the higher-Sahasrara mind-spirit center according to some teachings, yet others might profess that it extra-dimensionally embodies the higher-Sahasrara center.
The higher-Sahasrara is the true crown-chakra of the astral-body, of which, though it is spiritually located outside of the brain, within the spiritual aura directly above the head, it is yet inter-dimensionally grounded between specific brain force-centers, particularly to the pineal gland or frontal lobe force-center-shetram or temple. The ethereal third-eye seal tempers the Anja and Sahasrara and reinforces the consciousness filtration defenses of the brain, hence the illusory duality which divides ones conscious and sub-conscious minds. A combination of the bio-electricity of the neurological processes within the brain and the electromagnetic ethereal e-field surrounding the head of the physical-vessel are those phenomena which bind the Atmic prana of ones Sutratma thread and higher Sahasrara and astral Anja mind-spirit centers to their correspondent brain interface force-centers, which chakra-grounds are electromagnetically fortified by yet other brain force-centers.
The spiritual-consciousness-thread; or the golden Sutratma thread: This golden prana-circuit extra-dimensionally threads the Atmic consciousness-principle of the spirit to the mental, astral and physical planes. The Sutratma interpenetrates through both the outer and inner auric-bands of the embodied human spirit, threading the spiritual Brahmarandhra mind-center, which subconsciously stores ones causal past life memory, to a state of resonant cohesion with the mind-spirit grounding force-centers of the brain. Altering, interfering with, slightly inhibiting or otherwise pacifying the brain force-centers which moderate the natural bio-electro-cohesive bridge of energy that binds ones mind-spirit to the brain of the physical body can result in un-grounding ones higher Sahasrara-crown & spiritual-consciousness-thread from its EM bond with the Sahasrara-Shetram. It is the Authors perception that for most out-of-body practitioners in general, when an astral projection occurs, the higher Sahasrara and consciousness-thread together will temporarily break away from the brain and the ethereal EM-field; and yet a different cord phenomenon then manifests from either the naval or heart regions of the body.
