Level of the board: Muladhara, survival and insecurity. Row 1 of 8.
Meaning of the cell
Kama means desire, desire of any kind. People desire fame, wealth, success, family happiness, and social status. Any desire, aspiration, noble or ignoble goal is kama. Kama is the first stage of evolution. If there were no desire, there would be no universe at all. The ninth loka is connected with ignorance, lack of enlightenment, and dullness. It hints to the player that new knowledge must be acquired rather than stopping at what has already been achieved. This is the ladder that leads the player to the second level of consciousness, which begins with purification.
