Greetings,
I am very intrigued by the NEW technique, especially as it postulates the need for developing the secondary pathways for the primary pathways to open fully. This is especially so as it took me two years to feel the chakras and some of them still feel blocked. I have been doing energy work for years and have utilized the Western method of the Middle Pillar ritual, the Qabalistic method of aligning the Middle Sephiroth of the Tree of Life to the chakras in a somewhat indirect way than is done in the East. Specifically, these centers, as they are called, are not directly seen to link with the parts of the body that the Eastern chakras would focus upon. They are seen to be in the area and the work is on imaging the center in that area and not working to feel it within that part of the body directly. It has been told to me, by my teachers, that the Western way of working from above on the below is a way to increase the capacity for drawing the higher plane powers down to earth, with especial reference to what may manifest as magic. They have gone on to say that the Eastern method is a means of refining and sensitizing the subtle vehicles as an ascension or enlightenment method in which the power is moving up more often than it is being channeled down to earth. As such, it has been postulated that the two methods would lead to different capacity to earth power as the Western way can bring down a high voltage while the Eastern way can bring down a more refined and subtle voltage. I wonder, then, how the NEW technique fits in as either opening to a high voltage or refining to a subtle voltage.
