THE CHAKRAS AND YOUR BODY

 

                            THE CHAKRAS IN YOUR BODY

                                                                    👀👀

                    ❤❤

                    IF I SPEAK IN TERMS OF LOWER AND HIGHER CHAKRAS, IT CAN EASILY BE UNDERSTOOD. IT IS LIKE COMPARING THE FOUNDATON TO THE ROOF - THE ROOF IS NOT SUPERIOR TO THE FOUNDATION. THE FOUNDATION OF THE BUILDING IS MORE BASIC TO THE BUILDING THAN THE ROOF. THE QUALITY, LIFE SPAN, STABILITY AND SECURITY OF THE BUILDING DEPEND, TO A LARGE EXTENT, ON THE FOUNDATION RATHER THAN THE ROOF. BUT IN TERMS OF LANGUAGE, THE ROOF IS HIGHER, AND THE FOUNDATION IS LOWER.

                   IN THE PHYSICAL BODY, YOUR ENERGIES NEED TO BE IN THE MULADHARA CHAKRA TO SOME EXTENT. OTHERWISE, YOU CANNOT EXIST. BUT IF THE MULADHARA CHAKRA ALONE BECOMES DIMINANT, FOOD AND SLEEP WILL BE THE PREDOMINANT IN YOUR LIFE.

                          ❤❤

                  CHAKRAS HAVE MORE THAN ONE DIMENSION TO THEM. ONE DIMENTION IS THEIR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE, BUT THEY ALSO HAVE A SPIRITUAL DIMENSION. THIS MEANS THAT THEY CAN BE COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED INTO A NEW DIMENSION. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU BRING THE RIGHT KIND OF AWARENESS, THE SAME MULADHARA THAT CRAVES FOOD AND SLEEP, CAN BECOME ABSOLUTELY FREE FROM THE PROCESS OF FOOD AND SLEEP. IF ONE WANTS TO GO BEYOND FOOD AND SLEEP, ONE NEEDS TO TRANSFORM THE MULADHARA TO AN EVOLVED STATE.

                    THE SECOND CHAKRA IS SWADHISHTHANA. SWADHISHTHANA MEANS "THE ABODE TO THE SELF" IF YOUR ENERGIES MOVE  INTO SWADHISHTANA, YOU SEEK TO ENJOY THE PHYSICAL WORLD IN SO MANY WAYS. IF YOU LOOK AT A PLEASURE SEEKER, YOU WILL SEE THAT HIS LIFE AND HIS EXPERIENCE OF LIFE ARE JUST A LITTLE MORE INTENSE THAN SOMEONE WHO IS ONLY ABOUT FOOD AND SLEEP. THE SWADHISHTHANA CHAKRA IS LOCATED JUST ABOVE THE GENITAL ORGAN.

                        ❤❤

                          IF YOUR ENERGY MOVES INTO THE MANUPURAKA CHAKRA, LOCATED JUST BELOW THE NAVEL, YOU BECOME A DOER IN THE WORLD. YOU ARE ALL ABOUT ACTION. YOU MAY BE A BUSINESSMAN, A POLITIAN OR IN SOME OTHER FIELD WHERE A LOT OF ACTIVITY IS NEEDED.

                       MANIPURAKA IS THE MAINTNANCE CENTER. IT IS THE ONLY POINT IN THE WHOLE BODY WHERE ALL THE 72000 NADIS MEET ANE RE-DISTRIBUTE THEMSELVES. IF YOU HAVE A CERTAIN MASTERY  OVER YOUR MANIPURAKA, YOU CAN FIX THE TIME AND DATE OF YOUR DEATH. GENERALLY, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR A YOGI TO KNOW WHEN HE WILL DIE. OTHERWISE, HE FIXES HIS TIME OF DEATH HIMSELF, BECAUSE HE WANTS TO DIE GRACEFULLY, AS HE LIVED GRACEFULLY. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR HIM HOW HE DIES.

                      ❤❤

                        IF YOUR ENERGIES MOVE INTO THE ANAHATA, WHICH IS JUST BELOW THAT SPOT WHERE YOUR RIB CAGE MEETS, YOU ARE A CREATIVE PERSON. "ANAHATA" LITERALLY MEANS THE "UN-STRUCK". IF YOU WANT TO MAKE ANY SOUND, YOU HAVE TO STRIKE TWO OBJECTS TOGETHER. THE UN-STRUCK SOUND IS CALLED "ANAHATA". ANAHATA IS LIKE A TRANSITION BETWEEN YOUR LOWER CHAKRAS AND HIGHER CHAKRAS, BETWEEN SURVIVAL INSTINCTS AND THE INSTINCT TO LIBERATE YOURSELF.

                      ❤❤

                     

                     IF YOU LOOK AT THE CHAKRAS AS TWO DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS, THE MANIPURAKA, SWADHISHTANA AND MULADHARA ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH KEEPING THE BODY STABLE AND ROOTED. THESE ARE THE EARTH QUALITIES. THE MORE YOU ASCRIBE YOUR ENERGIES TO THESE THREE CENTERS, THE MORE YOUR QUALITIES WILL BECOME EARTHLY,MORE IN THE GRIP OF NATURE. THE UPPER ONES, THE VISHUDDHI, AGNA AND SAHASRAR, ARE THREE CENTERS WHICH ARE ALWAYS TAKING YOU AWAY. IF YOUR ENERGIES BECOME DOMINANT IN THESE CENTERS MAKE YOU RECEPTIVE TO ANOTHER FORCE WHICH WE NORMALLY REFER TO AS GRACE.

THE SEVEN CHAKRAS

         

                           KUNDALINI AWAKENING 

                                                                        👀

                     KUNDALINI IN SANSKRIT MEANS 'COILED' LIKE A SNAKE. IT IS A DORMANT SPIRITUAL ENERGY THAT LIES AT THE BASE OF SPINE IN EVERY HUMAN BEING. IT IS DESCRIBED AS A COILED SERPANT WITHIN IS WAITING TO BE AWAKENED. IT IS AWAKENED FOR UNION WITH GOD. KUNDALINI AWAKEING RESULTS IN DEEP MEDITATION, BLISS AND ENLIGHTENMENT.

                     THERE ARE SEVERAL NADIS IN THE BODY. THEY ARE CHANNELS THROUGH WHICH THE PSYCHIC ENERGY FLOW. THEY CAN'T BE SEEN AND THERE IS NO SCIENTIFIC REASON OF THEIR EXISTENCE. THEY ARE NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH NERVES, VEINS AND ARTERIES DISTRIBUTED OVER THE HUMAN BODY. THERE ARE THREE IMPORTANT NADIS I.E. SUSHUMNA, PINGALA AND IDA.  SUSUMNA RUNS IN THE SPINE OR ALONG THE SPINE THROUGH SEVEN CHAKRAS - MULADHARA AT BASE AND SAHASRARA AT THE CROWN OF THE HEAD. PINGALA ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF SPINE HAS SUN LIKE NATURE WHEREAS IDA RUNS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF SPINE AND HAS MOON LIKE NATURE. THE KUNDALINI AWAKENING CAN BE GRADUAL OR ABRUPT, VARYING IN INTENSITY DEPENDING UPON PHYSICAL COMPOSITION AND NATURE OF DIFFERENT PERSONS. ITS AWAKENING LEADS TO PSYCHO-SPIRITUAL GROWTH. IT INCREASES KNOWLEDGE AND EFFECTS CONSCIOUSNESS.

                          BEFORE ENTERING SAMADHI ONE'S KUNDALINI HAS TO BE AWAKENED THROUGH WHATEVER PATH ONE MAY FOLLOW - BHAKTI, KARMA OR JNANA YOGA OR A COMBINATION OF THE TWO OR ALL THREE. KUNDALINI CAN BE AWAKENED BY THE GURU OR BY OWNSELF. ONE'S KUNDALINI CAN BE AWAKENED BY DOING JAPA, SORROW, PAST KARMAS OR PRANAYAMA. THE GURU CAN AWAKEN KUNDALINI EITHER BY SEEING, TOUCHING OR BY MERE THINKING ABOUT DISCIPLE.

                       KUNDALINI SHOULD BE AWAKENED BY A GURU WHO CAN FULLY CONTROL THE RISING ENERGY OTHERWISE IT MAY LEAD TO MANY PSYCHO PROBLEMS IN THE ASPIRANT. BEFORE AWAKENING ONE SHOULD HAVE ALL THE GOOD QUALITIES TO HOLD THAT ARISING POWER. AFTER AWAKENING, ONE SHOULD TAKE GREAT CARE IN CONTROLLING THE THOUGHTS THAT ARE ENTERING THE MIND. MIND SHOULD ALWAYS BE FILLED WITH POSITIVE THOUGHTS O THOUGHTS ABOUT GOD. THE THOUGHTS OF ANGER, HATRED, JEALOUSY, AND EGO SHOULD BE AVOIDED TO THE BEST. ONE SHOULD ALWAYS TRY TO IMPROVE ONESELF THEN ONLY COSMIC ENERGY WILL NOT HARM ONE'S BODY AND MIND. OTHERWISE THE RISING ENERGY CAN INCREASES THE FLOW OF BLOOD TOWARDS BRAIN WHICH CAN CAUSE FAINTNESS, COMPLETE INSENSIBILIT, IRRITABILITY, EXCITEMENT, IN EXTREME CAN PARANYSIS OR DEATH. IT IS VERY ESSENTIAL FOR THE PERSON WHOSE KUNDALINI ENERGY IS AWAKNED TO BE MORALLY A GOOD PERSON. ONLY THEN ENERGY BLESSES ONE WITH MANY SUPER NATURAL POWERS WHICH ARE BEYOND ONE'S THINKING AND IMAGINATION. IT IS BELIEVED THAT ON THE AROUSAL OF DORMANT KUNDALINI ENERGY A COMMON MAN OF CLAY CAN BE TRANSFORMED INTO VERY INTELLIGENT, VERY STRONG AND VERY POWERFUL PERSON.

                         GOPI KRISHNA WROTE IN "KUNDALINI - THE SECRET OF YOGA". KUNDALINI ENERGY CAN BE COMPARED WITH A POWERFUL ORGANIC ELECTRIC CURRENT OF WHICH, ON AWAKENING, THE BODY BECOMES THE GENERATOR". HENCE, THE POWERS SHOULD NEVER BE MISUSED IN HARMING OTHERS.
