You think monks from the past created a network of astral planes which can be intersected by vibrating a certain frequency? Interesting take, but I would say that you're cluing yourself in to something from that other plane: that that monk is being used by your Higher Self as a catalyst for growth. I would also venture to say that that monk is perhaps a component of your Higher Self, and that he was like a cosmic wink to you to lead you in a direction for a specific purpose: to show or reveal something to you. This thing may have something do to with following your excitement.

If you choose to interpret it as a monk-created network of checkpoints, perhaps that is the direction toward which you ought to be lead. It will certainly reveal more enticing phenomena should you pursue it.

edit: All IMO of course.
