Sinera's Lucidiary

[Sinera]

Later on, when mastering the body you are training, you might experience initiations (like Neil's) where you basically know what to do. Before you can do that automatically usually comes a phase of figuring it all out, and that phase contains simulations. You develop the inner senses that will later be refined and mastered to become mastery of the respective body you are in. (...)
My own experience is that the exit blindness in the mental body occurs when developing the lower three chakras - presence in the mental body, the feeling of being on the lower mental plane and being sensitive towards its space, and mobility. The combination of these chakras also enables a kind of vision that is more like 3D touch or "knowing the space."

Exit blindness is a clue for a situation where either one or more chakras still need to be developed (and hence no sight), or some of them are suppressed (and hence no sight) to help focus on the lesson of simulation (which might be to develop a single chakra or a dedicated set of chakras in unison). Kurt often refers to simulation as being like attending a gym with workout equipment. The equipment limits your range of movement to dedicatedly and correctly develop a certain muscle group in isolation. Similarly a simulation can serve the purpose of mastering only one chakra or set of chakras instead of all at once.

So to get it right: You say that every chakra functions on every level/body (differently) and so, if we consider this to be a progression, I might have done on this specific instance a training on the 2nd (=mental - or 3rd if we count in the etheric body before the astral) body - and there been working on sub-level 1-3 (counting the chakras as usual from the base up)?

How about the many experiences when I finally saw the helper ("Blue Monk", Gálaca aka Ludmilla)? Did I 'switch on chakra(s) 4,5,6,7 then on the Mental Body? And does that mean that the discarnate helpers / guides themselves generally operate on the Mental (body) Level?

This would be the logical mechanism if we consider retrievals involving retrievees who are solely 'boxed in' on their Astral level (thought-form / dream / Focus23 or whatever) and the incarnated retriever acting as the 'intermediary' who is able to operate on the Astral level to contact them and has the task to get them out there by making them "aware" of the Mental-level discarnate helper who can 'take over' then. So you (as incarnated helper) aid in 'pushing' them onto a higher mental level (and above) for them to 'go home'?

Your latest experience has many clues for a simulation again, most probably one in learning to handle the mental body. (...) That your attempts to get somewhere else did not work also was probably due to it being a simulation - a limiting environment that tries to establish focus on the lesson at hand. Exploring the simulation for clues about what to do is usually the way to go.

Hm, well, but I wonder a bit about the term 'simulation' here, as also in Kurt's terminology I thought it only refers to dream state lessons we take, but not lucid ones such as this one. Also I thought, according to Kurt, a simulation is a learning situation which is guarded / maintained by so-called 'robots' of the larger consciousness system, instead of more autonomous and self-aware helper personalities (and I am now really convinced they are independent helpers even when I do not see them).

Therefore I would have called it a 'training session' rather than a 'simulation' (although I admit this distinction might even be a bit trifle now). Yes, I have indeed the same impression that it was really a 'restricted space' as you say and that my lesson objective (which had been my own set goal indeed) probably was already achieved by 'speaking' the affirmation.
