According to many ancient teachings, humans have seven subtle energy centers that are called Chakras, or "7 Light Posts" and "Scroll with 7 Seals" in the Bible . MSI not only makes reference to the chakras throughout his books, but gives one of the clearest perspectives on the chakras I’ve ever seen. 

You may wonder, what is the purpose of the chakras?  

• First and foremost, the chakras’ purpose is to give you the experience of the One, the Ascendant, as well as the ability to experience your world. In other words, the chakras connect consciousness to our bodies.  
• They control certain bodily functions and are associated with certain abilities. Among other things, the chakras control hormonal se­cretions, changes in circulation rate, blood pressure, respira­tion, blood sugar level, neuro-muscular excitation, and the en­do­crine glands!

The chakras are fiery spinning wheels that are the seven centers of life in you. In most literature you read, they are colored. According to MSI, these seven energy centers are still and clear in an Enlightened Being! But for most of humanity, they spin and are multi-colored due to limitations that exist in each person’s mind – the defenses, complexes and addictive compul­sions of our habitual beliefs and judgments. The physical body attempts to respond to our chaotic thought patterns; the impossibility of doing this results in sickness, failure of the organs, aging and eventually death. 
Our experience in life of “problems”, enemies, lack of health, or other issues is nothing other than our own projec­tions of the seven centers that have gained sufficient power to enslave us in an illusion.
Our task in life, as represented by Gana’s 7 tasks in the Thunder Series, is to clarify these centers and expose the Truth – our own Enlightenment.  
The Seven reflect throughout all of creation, in every particle of matter, at each and every space-time moment. In your body, there are seven centers of life, physically scattered along your spine like so many jewels. There are seven Celestial Regions of Light that surround the 3-dimensional Universe.  MSI also discloses the Seven Immortal Masters in Second and Third Thunder who continually aid humanity in returning to their knowledge of the One. 
MSI clearly states in the Enlightenment book, “There is no escape from the wheel of desire-action-impression without Ascending it”.    
In Second Thunder he says, “you must re-learn the correct use of each center. Each of the false limitations of your omnipotent and omniscient mind must be transformed into its true, its unbounded status. Only then, when you have finished each of these seven tasks, will I be able to pass infinite energy through the Golden Thread eternally; we will be united forever in Para.”
In the Analysis of the Art of Ascension he states, “When the old programs that sustain the waking state are rewritten, the energy that is locked in stress in the body is released. When this hap­pens, the mirror of the mind is cleansed: the Clear Light of the Ascendant, the true nature of the mind, shines forth sponta­ne­ously. And then life begins to transform at a faster and faster pace.” “The energy of complete consciousness rises up the spine [known as kundalini], enlivening each of the seven chakras, resulting in inner silence, perfect awareness of the Ascen­dant and complete and permanent bliss.”

​Are you kidding me? These Thunder books alone have so much love, wisdom, laughter, despair, excitement, and intrigue. Every aspect of the human drama, and then some of the non-human drama!  There are fays, celestials, shape-shifting dragons, hermaphrodites, mother Goddess, Grandfather of all creation, the librarian who lives in the cave, realized masters, and demons. The books have got it all.  

If I were sitting on a bench with MSI, I’d ask him, “What was the point of writing the Thunder Series?” which, I imagine, would probably take an hour to talk about and would open up all other kinds of topics. Let’s face it, he’s a conscious man, as conscious as any self-realized master you can think of. So, I’m pretty sure we’d have an amazing discussion.  

I’d probably ask him about the Solar Race, the earthbreath, and some civilizations and planets he mentioned in the book. I’d for sure ask him what he thinks about the current state of humanity and where we are at now (as compared to back when he wrote these books).

The fact that he wrote the Thunder books and all of the other books is pretty cool, since they each have a different style, but the similarity underlying them all is the intent to inspire people to awaken and expand in consciousness. I would suspect he has a pretty good sense of humor and an amazing vision of reality unlike any I’ve come across before.  
​
I’m sure we’d have a laugh and maybe a cry, and I would be very inspired to continue with Ascension and my own love of higher Truth and the direct experience of That! 

2018 is the year of celebrating my 10th year as an avid practitioner of the Ishayas’ Art of Ascension and my introduction to MSI’s epic books of communicating this Art to the world.  Gems of wisdom and truth are there to discover in all of his written works to serve as tools for every human heart. As an example from his book “Ascension” with regard to ego::
 
“There is a story from the Ishayas that illustrates this point. The monks were attacked from time to time by hordes of demons when they were deep in meditation. No matter how hard they worked to be free from them, there was no escape. It was only when they stopped judging them as evil that they would vanish or transform into celestial nymphs or angels. It was only the monks’ interpretation of reality that was giving them trouble.”
 
This one passage, this one Truth has helped me immensely over the years as a reminder that we are all creators of our own realities.  The exciting news is MSI’s visionary writings are full of wisdom jewels such as this for everyone to explore and incorporate for growth.
 
What will you create?  What is to be your reality?
