Explores the gem archetype of the Chintamani, the wish-fulfilling jewel known in legends around the world, and how to access it energetically

• Examines myths of the chintamani from East and West, including from China, India, and South America; in legends of the Holy Grail and Atlantis; and in Nicholas Roerich’s real-life quest for Shambhala

• Explains the chintamani matrix--the multidimensional field of light, energy, and consciousness that forms networks of gems on the etheric and physical levels

• Provides simple and advanced practices with crystal grids and meditation to help you access the chintamani matrix and realize your innermost heart’s desires

Space, time, intention, matter, and consciousness all entangle in crystals. Nowhere is this more evident than in the ancient gem archetype of the chintamani, the wish-fulfilling jewel known in legends around the world as the stone that grants your heart’s desires. As authors Johndennis Govert and Hapi Hara reveal, the chintamani’s “tachyolithic” technology of wish-granting and spiritual enlightenment creates a vehicle for positive transformation. They show how the chintamani energy matrix can be accessed using tangible crystals and gemstones, meditation, yoga, and the powerful science of intention.

Exploring the many chintamani myths and legends from East and West, the authors explain how there are three types of chintamani: the mythical gemstone; the power crystals of history, such as the Koh-i-Noor diamond; and the multidimensional field of light, energy, and consciousness that forms a network of all gems in what is known as “the jewel net of Indra” in Hinduism and Buddhism. Activating this crystal energy matrix provides a way to manifest your intentions and help you create the subtle diamond body.

The authors detail specific gems and crystal spiritual technology that can affect material reality and trigger profound spiritual growth. They provide a number of simple practices with crystal grids and meditation to help you access the chintamani matrix and become aware of the interconnected jewel net of consciousness. They examine the science of intention, which provides a basis for connecting to gemstones and crystals, and share advanced meditations to realize and activate your innermost heart’s desires.

From Chapter 2. Chintamani and Intention

Vedic Jewel Net of Indra

In his introduction to the practice of the Jewel Tree of Tibet, Robert Thurman compares the Norse and Tibetan world trees. The world tree with its leaves and branches covers all of creation. In the Tibetan emphasis, the leaves are jewels, and the jewels are all the enlightened teachers that have ever transformed the illusory human condition into its highest expressions. The jewel tree is an image of all the individual connections to greater consciousness available to everyone. This reveals the chintamani not only as a great earth gem, but as a mind gem as well.

Throughout the ocean of time, we on earth’s shore can make out misty shapes from here to the horizon. Each of the shapes has a range of names, an underlying truth and multiple unfolding story lines twining about one another. There appear to be a number of timeless gems tangled in an endless knot in and out of time. This image evokes another view of the chintamani, fused from the Hindu and Buddhist traditions, the jewel net of Indra, or indrajala. The Atharva Veda depicts the palace of Indra, maharaja of the devas, atop Meru, the sacred mountain. Suspended above the palace is a vast net that extends in every direction covering all creation below. At every intersecting node on the net, there is a jewel. Each jewel reflects every other jewel on the net displaying limitless refracting brilliance and endless reflecting illusion. The chintamani in this scheme is not one great gem, but every gem that exists interconnected in every dimension.

The Hindu moral of the indrajala differs from the moral drawn in Buddhist teaching. The Hindu view expressed in the Atharva Veda, composed between 1200 and 1000 BCE, presents the jewel net in two aspects. It is an emblem of Indra’s splendor as king of the gods which reveals the vast extent of his power and wealth. The jewel net is also Indra’s weapon with which he can threaten, snare, and control his subjects and enemies alike. Emanating from his celestial palace, the net covers his dominion completely. It envelops his realm in a force field that embeds his will into the fabric of natural order.

Even though Indra is powerful within this realm, other realms exist below and above on the vast sacred mountain of existence. Even within his realm, Indra cannot exercise capricious power because the order of creation itself limits his rule. Just as much as the jewel net projects Indra’s intents, it also protects every being at every node on the net from disruption that may be contrary to natural order which is called dharma. The indrajala also represents: sham, illusion, delusion, magic, sorcery, the art of magic, juggler, and sorcerer.3 The entire universe appears as an illusion resting upon the base of ever-aware consciousness. The indrajala gem net is the connectedness of the universe, its protection, as well as its unreal projection. This is the deeply metaphysical symbol of how the chintamani is bound in the paradox of quests, for worldly power and dominance or spiritual realization and benefit.

Examining Intention

With any chintamani, it always comes down to the wisdom of the wish. As children, we made many wishes intended to bring immediate delight and entertainment. For instance, when we overindulged the urge for chocolate ice cream, it was intended as a positive experience, but may have had the unintended result of causing us to feel badly afterwards. This stage is about acting on likes and dislikes which is barely an intention. There are five levels of true intention and motivation above this that were presented by Chan/Zen Master, Guifeng Zongmi. He referred to them as deep motivations to practice the Zen path, but it refers not to specifics, but to the root of any intention. As you will see, the intender must already have a particular perspective in order to intend actively on any of the five levels.

First, there is ordinary intention. This can be equated with concern to solve the challenges posed by everyday living. The sum of collective problems at some moments, like wave piling on wave, can overwhelm any of us. Having the decisiveness and power to master these challenges is intention of the first level. The next intention level arises from comparative competitiveness as we strive to excel at some skill, attribute, or accomplishment that raises us well above the rest of humanity like a sports heroine or super-hero. The super-skill can be cultivated and used to benefit self or others, but the motivation is not generosity, but arises from dominance. The third level of intention is to eradicate our most difficult challenges at their roots which means that in order to succeed at the intention, we have to understand the root problem. Is the root a problem we share with our family, community, nation; or, the entire all human race? This level means intending to resolve archetypal impasses. The next level of intention springs from the awareness that all beings are intimately interconnected in the ecology of life. To resolve our individual discontents, ultimately, we have to resolve collective difficulties of the matrix of all living beings. Finally, there is the intention of no intention which can only arise once all dualistic thinking collapses into integrated awareness. The mind of no intention arises from recognizing the perfection of everything as it is and everything as the same as self. A parallel thought from the seventh poem of the Dao De Jing states:

…thus the sage pulls himself back

but ends up in front

he lets himself go

but ends up safe

selflessness must be the reason

whatever he seeks he finds.4

SAMPLE PRACTICE 1

Practice 11.7: Creating Intention and Crystal Programming

Write down your intention on a piece of paper and put it aside. Write the intention using positive “I am” phrases. Hold the crystal in your hands until it feels warm or comfortable. You have activated the pyroelectricity when the crystal feels warm and comfortable in your hands. Center yourself through breathing and sensing each of your chakras and areas of your body. Release stress from your body including your shoulders, chest, abdomen, knees, then ground your legs and feet to the earth. Once centered, continue breathing deeply and begin to visualize your intention at the third eye point. Visualize your intention as though you can see it happening in your life now, a living, moving picture. Sit with the picture. Take a deep breath and slowly move the living, moving picture of your intention from your third eye point into your heart center. Convert the intention at your heart center from a vision to a feeling. Feel the intention in your heart as though it is in your life now. From your heart center, give your intention all the love and nurturing it needs to take root in your life and manifest. Feel love towards your intention deeply and feel the intention in your heart and your body. Take in a deep breath and expand your heart center so the intention can expand within you and sit with the feeling of intention at the heart center until you are comfortable to move it down slowly to your solar plexus or stomach center. The solar plexus is the seat of manifestation and the seat of emotion. At this point, spend time feeling the intention instinctively in your abdomen. Contemplate why this intention has not already manifested in your life. Ask yourself what blocks or fears have prevented you from manifesting the intention. In what way will this intention change your life? Be comfortable exploring your fears. If you are able, allow the fears to slowly dissipate, releasing their hold on you, and tell your instinctive self that change will be alright. If this stage of...
