This cell is connected with the theme of “atonement” and helps reveal how that state appears in the inner path, the player's reactions and the current life process.
Level of the board: Manipura, self-assertion and power. Row 3 of 8.
Meaning of the cell
The player realizes that in the process of satisfying his desires he may have harmed those around him. Entering the region of atonement, he sees that he followed an unrighteous path and, by resorting to unrighteous means, created unfavorable vibrations within himself that now prevent him from attaining inner peace. The player experiences an acute and pressing desire to purify his negative karma. He may also feel guilt because he cannot adapt to a higher level of vibrations.
In both cases repentance brings positive results and establishes an ascending current of energy.
