Meaning of the cell
In Sanskrit the word svachchha means "pure, clear, transparent." This transparency is the result of the process of purification through which the player passes in naraka-loka. Transparency means the absence of obstacles to light. When all doubts are clarified, the veil of blind intellect dissolves, and it is replaced by the pure and powerful light of inner feeling. Intellectual understanding, dominant in the first three centers, leaves the stage. Here reasoning is regarded as a deficiency, a disease of consciousness. When consciousness identifies itself with understanding, it suffers from the illness of rationalism, from the chains of intellect. Devotion and faith help overcome this state, and the player enters the level of Being.
