109- ‘Creation Space’ Element

First of all, while meditating one has to clear his mind and sit in a comfortable position.

So, I closed my eyes and started breathing exercises.

Take a deep breath.

Hold for some time.

Breathe out.

Repeat the process.

.

In my previous world, it was believed that a human's body was made up of 5 elements. Some believed that it was 6 elements or more.

Even the novels, manga, and anime used this concept of elements.

For example, according to ancient Indian scriptures, the human body is made of 5 elements namely: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Space.

While some ancient Chinese records held the concept that the human body is made of 5 elements namely: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Metal.

But there are also records that say: Human body is made up of 6 elements like: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Wood, and Metal.

While some records say it is 7 elements: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Wood, Metal, and Lightning.

Even Buddhism claims that the human body is made up of only 4 elements (Fire, Water, Wind, And Earth) and declined the concept of the ‘Space’ element.

But in this world, people believe that every living being is composed of 4 Elements (Fire, Water, Wind, And Earth) and the ‘Creation Space’ Element.

According to this world’s concepts, all the speculation (about the human body being composed of 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or more elements from the previous world) are true as well as false.

Why true and why False?

Because according to the beliefs of people living in this world, the human body is made up of many elements but the primary 4 Elements are- Fire, Water, Wind, And Earth. And other elements are derived from these 4 elements.

And the ‘Creation Space’ Element is used to derive other secondary elements from these 4 Primary Elements.

Consider the ‘Creation Space’ Element similar to a flask or Cooking utensil.

Like how in Laboratories, different chemicals or materials are added in different proportions into the Flask and a new product can be obtained from it.

Or how different vegetables or ingredients are added in different proportions into the Cooking utensil and edible or inedible food is obtained from it.

Just like these examples, the ‘Creation Space’ Element is a space within the living beings, where the 4 Primary Elements (Fire, Water, Wind, And Earth) can be added in different proportions and that can result in the birth of different elements like Lightning, Metal, Wood, Electricity, Thunder, etc. These elements are also called as the Derivative Elements or Secondary Elements.

So, in a sense, the concept of the ‘Space’ element from the 5 Elements theory is misinterpreted in the previous world.

Also, these 5 Elements are related to 5 Chakras each.

1st Chakra – Muladhara Chakra or The Root Chakra, is related to the Earth Element.

2nd Chakra – Svadisthana Chakra or The Sacral Chakra, is related to the Water Element.

3rd Chakra – Manipura Chakra or The Navel Chakra, is related to the Fire Element.

4th Chakra – Anahata Chakra or The Heart Chakra, is related to the Wind Element.

5th Chakra – Vishuddha Chakra or The Throat Chakra, is related to the ‘Creation Space’ Element.

While the,

6th Chakra – Ajna Chakra or The Third-Eye Chakra, is not related to any Element but it is the doorway to the ‘Sea of Conscious’ and concentration.

7th Chakra – Sahasrara Chakra or The Crown Chakra, is also not related to any Element but it represents the activations, size, and strength of ‘Sea of Conscious’.

And the Awakening stage is the stage where all the ‘Chakras’ are awakened or activated.

.

So, first I have to activate the ‘1st Chakra – Muladhara Chakra or The Root Chakra’. It is situated at the base of the spine.

I cleared my mind and continued practicing breathing exercises. And tried to remember the characteristics of the ‘Earth’ element, because it helps in building a connection with the Earth and that in turn will help me in awakening the ‘1st chakra’.

.

The ‘Earth’ Element represents strength.

It represents Vitality.

It is also nurturing and seeks to draw all things together with itself, in order to bring harmony, rootedness, and stability.

“I am connected to the earth. I am strong and I am stable.”

Like this, seconds passed, minutes passed...

.

.

I don’t know how much time passed, suddenly the system notification rang.

‘ding’

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] is increasing.”

‘Current progress 0.1 %’

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] is increasing.”

‘Current progress 0.2 %’

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] is increasing.”

‘Current progress 0.3 %’

.

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] is increasing.”

‘Current progress 4.1 %’

.

.

At the same time, at the base of my spine, a small blurry Brown flower was shining.

When I saw this and also read the System message, I got ecstatic.

With every notification sound, the blurry Brown flower got brighter, its size got bigger and the image of the flower got clearer.

.

.

‘ding’

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] is increasing.”

‘Current progress 99.9 %’

‘ding’

‘Affinity with the [Earth Element] has reached the maximum limit.”

‘ding’

‘Congratulations host has awakened the [1st Chakra].’

And at the same time, the small blurry red flower was completely transformed into a big brown four-petaled lotus.

I have already crossed the ‘Awakening’ stage a few years ago and I have lots of experience and am familiar with this stage, but when I look at this big Brown four-petaled lotus, I could not help but marvel.

When my ‘1St chakra’ was awakened, the Brown four-petaled lotus that was formed, was a little smaller and a little lighter than the current Brown four-petaled lotus.

And the current Brown four-petaled lotus gives me a sense of perfection.

And it makes me think that whether I made a mistake while cultivating and awakening the ‘1st chakra’ or did I miss something? What was wrong?

If the previous and current Brown four-petaled lotus are to be compared then, I can give that the current Brown four-petaled lotus 100% score and for the previous one, I can only give a 90% or 91% score.

I remember my teachers at the ‘Gurukul’ school, saying that-

When the ‘1st chakra’ is awakened; the size, color, and image of the Brown four-petaled lotus determines the degree of the awakening of the chakra and the affinity with the ‘Earth element’. This means: bigger the size, the darker the color, and clearer the image is, the better. And if one is not able to improve any of them, then it means they have reached the limit.

And the number of petals that are opened, determines the future achievements. This means four-petaled lotus is the maximum and people who have four-petaled lotus are called genius, while the value decreases with every decreasing number of petals.

And I clearly remember that my teachers had praised me after I described the characteristics of the Brown four-petaled lotus and they told me that it is 100% awakened. And there were not many students in my school or clan, who were able to do so.

But now, I finally understand that previously I did not give my full effort.

Maybe it is due to my stats and system that I am able to achieve this perfect awakening.
