Opening the higher chakras is thought to increase psychic activity and allow channelling, but as Spiritalk says that isn't the same as development. It's one thing to balance and energise all your chakras but that is just like sweeping the chimney, you still need to light the fire to get any smoke through the chimney.
Why would they say that at the church then leave you like that and not offer advice and support on how to go further? Beats me, seems strange although churches do charge for training and they can be very picky. Try the meditations Spiritalk advises, and there are plenty more around to help you contact, connect and meet your guides or angels
