The Tree of Life motif appears throughout history...what does it mean?

It's the same as the Sefirot and Mount Meru and Chakras.
Your spinal cord, limbic system, and mind.
See the crown? Crown chakra.

What I see: a slightly “expanded” (edited) interpretation of the 7 chakras, starting clearly from the root, and occasionally showing one chakra expanded into two spheres, in a sense to show the composite nature of those chakras/energy centers.
The version most are familiar with is even more explicit in this branching technique:

To me it seems like the classic case of a later group stealing an earlier groups knowledge/spiritual technology, making a few changes and saying “I made this”.
I do think that what is represented here has validity in some sense and relavent, practical use to us. That is the only explanation I can come up with for how so many independent cultures developed their own, highly overlapping, human “bio energy” paradigms.
Thoughts? Insights? Inspirations? Thanks
That knowledge was their top science. It is still our top science. Neuroscience.
Transformations of the info take place as it moves between cultures and languages.
It's not "theft" it's adaptation.
Everything is transforming, that's key.
A chair is not a really a chair, it's just a temporary description of the matter that makes up that chair. The chair won't be like that forever, it will be broken down, or burnt, and become other things. This process is happening everywhere all the time. The names/descriptions we assign to things are just temporary, information, always re-organizing and improving. We get attached to those names and descriptions thinking they are "permanent", but it's really more like a hologram, where time will erase them. So that's the grand illusion.
It seems like the vast majority that adapt this knowledge seek to conceal it and keep it for themselves, even the great chi masters thousands of years ago hid this knowledge.
Maybe that is part and parcel with being able to preserve it, what do you think? And what do you think the earliest adaptation of this knowledge we still have is?
I'm not sure if people are trying to hide it per se, that's what I haven't quite figured out yet.
Or it could be that we conceal it with our own ignorance and assumptions, framing ancient wisdom and history with skepticism and paranoia, partially due to modern science dogmas and the atheism/futurism movement, letting our fantasies run wild, imbuing our fantasies into our sacred media (stone/papyrus/forums/computer screens), and the most sacred media of all the slate of the mind, which then propagates that darkness further into other people's hands, where they can then manipulate it further. Creating the "hive mind" and "archons" who control that mind.
Some people can harness this creatively, like Phil K. Dick, who writes amazing novels.
It's the Moon magick, the subconscious/unconscious shining insight on the intellect, but it is a dim light that we must interpret with wisdom and responsibility when we bring it into consciousness, or else it is an idea/thought that will cast long shadows. Joseph Campbell/Carl Jung wrote some stuff on his.
The backbone is an important symbol because without that, you're slop in a petri dish. Bacterial cultures, easily experimented on by the archons. Say no to mRNA vaccines, there, you have a backbone.
This site just keeps deleting my comment edits sadly.
That, or wait 3 minutes between edits.
