Chakras eh? Why am I not surprised? But if that is the way you see it - so
be it.

However, HPB & her Gurus taught very little about such matters; except to warn
of their dangers. In fact she mentioned in the Esoteric Section teachings
that the blessed Masters have regard for "only such as square their BEHAVIOR
with the rules hinted at... in the 2nd & 3rd Treatises." of the Voice. (my
emphasis)

Focus simply on acting, thinking, feeling & speaking (or writing) with less
self centeredness and more selflessness. Or as Buddha put it:
Never practice vice,
Always practice virtue,
Purify your mind;
This is the teaching of all Buddhas

Fare Thee Well,
