Anybody here seen Castaneda's assemblage point?

There is a spiritual group down in the Amazon which has this "eighth chakra" figured into their beliefs.  I think its supposed to be pink colored.  It is above the heart chakra, a little towards the back, and powers breathing like you said. Becacuse you have to inhale before expressing yourself verbally, this chakra also powers "intent".  It is the bridge between the emotions of the heart and the reason/logic of language.  (I call it the Eupneic chakra on my site because I can't remember what those spiritualists called it.)  Check out my posts on Dreaming Chakras here:  http://p214.ezboard.com/bdreaminguniverse

That was not the rearward portion of the heart chakra I was speaking of but the chakra right behind it, which powers the lungs and heart. As one goes more deeply into the layers of each chakra, the function has progressively deeper meanings.

I can make only simple answers, i am not very deep in English.
But I hope, it adds maybe another puzzle--->

All back
energy centers are just the opposite polarities of the front ones.
While the crown & base isn't affected.
Back centers as one polarity are "will" chakras, while front are "desire" chakras. it is just a simplicism and they are unite. They are very close to astral/desire body, as to draw energy ot of them...

I  don't explored evrything above the crwon. But 30 cm above the head
10 cm in front is the alpha center. One of the MER-KA-BA lightbody of   vehicle centers.

For years I read the works of Carlos Castaneda with fascination. But I've always wondered how the apparently unique philosophy of the Yaqui sorceror can be reconciled with other spiritual philosophies.

The passage below is quoted from http://www.castaneda.com regarding the assemblage point. Put simply, the assemblage point is an area of our energy body that attaches us to the multiverse. Moving it through acts of will, shifts our perception allowing us to perceive other realities.

I'm just curious. Has anyone ever seen this assemblage point as desribed? Does it perhaps correspond to a specific Chakra?

When human beings are perceived as conglomerates of energy fields, a point of intense luminosity can be perceived at the height of the shoulder blades an arm's length away from them, on the back. The seers of ancient times who discovered this point of luminosity called it the assemblage point, because they concluded that it is there that perception is assembled. They noticed, aided by their seeing, that on that spot of luminosity, the location of which is homogeneous for mankind, converge zillions of energy fields in the form of luminous filaments which constitute the universe at large. Upon converging there, they become sensory data, which is utilizable by human beings as organisms.
