can split off, but the farther you have reached into the series of the<br />
cakras, the more expensive will be the apparent return. Or if you return,<br />
having lost the memory of the connection with that center, then you are<br />
like a wraith. In reality you are just nothing, a mere shadow, and your<br />
experiences remain empty.<br />
Mrs. Crowley: Do you think the idea is to experience those cakras,<br />
which one has gone through, simultaneously?<br />
Dr. Jung: Certainly. As I told you, in our actual historical psychological<br />
development we have about reached anvhata and from there we can<br />
experience mÖlvdhvra, and all the subsequent centers of the past, by<br />
knowledge of records, and tradition, and also through our unconscious.<br />
Suppose somebody reached the vjñv center, the state of complete consciousness,<br />
not only self-consciousness. That would be an exceedingly<br />
extended consciousness which includes everything—energy itself—a<br />
consciousness which knows not only “That is Thou” but more than<br />
that—every tree, every stone, every breath of air, every rat’s tail—all that<br />
is yourself; there is nothing that is not yourself. In such an extended consciousness<br />
all the cakras would be simultaneously experienced, because<br />
it is the highest state of consciousness, and it would not be the highest if<br />
it did not include all the former experiences.<br />
