>But first help me in telling me what the "G V Model" is and where
can I see it.<

Dallas, I call HPB's globes & planes the Gupta Vidya Model or gp model
for short. She gave it as 7 globes on the four lower planes. de Purucker
expanded it to 12 globes on 7 planes, and it is his model that I always
refer to.  According to this model, we are currently reincarnating as a
human lifewave on Globe D, the lowest of all globes of our planetary
chain. 

All life flows down the left (Arc of Descent) and up the right side (Arc
of Ascent) in a widdershins or counterclockwise direction.
 
The figure on page 200 of the SD compares HPB's gv model with the Tree
of Life, implying very strongly that her Globes are the equivalent of
the Sephiroth but simply placed into another configuration.  The tree
structure of Sephiroth is now a circular chain of worlds. The 7 planes,
three above (shown as a triangle in the figure) and four below separated
by the Abyss, still remain.
