Easy guide to understanding Chackras!
Chakras are the energy centers in the form of wheel that rotates in circular motion and are located throughout the body. These chakras vibrate at different levels and radiate energies in different frequencies through our body. There is 7 chakras which are the major chakras in our body regulate different organs and glands of our body. They also influence our physical and mental behaviours.
*As interesting fact I will mention that there are also chackras out of our body, but importantly we will concentrate on those 7 major ones.
Balanced and clear chakras will energize our mind, body and soul that ultimately help us leading a happy and harmonious life. Most of us can only access the lower 3 chakras through our entire life.
Chakras are unbalanced when any of our chakra is either under active, over active or blocked, thereby resulting in low mental, emotional and physical level. Different toxins, impurities and chemicals present in our water, food and air also contribute to imbalanced chakras.
Chakras are interdependent althrough imbalanced chakra can also impacts other chakras, eg. Over active chakra which vibrates too quickly will radiate it's energy to other chakra, because this one will be underactive and will consume energy quieker. All chackras have to be balanced to works as they should.
The state of balanced chakras for beginners can be attained by practicing various techniques such as yoga or meditation, kundalini awakening and using various chakra crystals or even diet.
It is not easy to achieve and it is definitely time consuming, only regular, motivated and disciplined behaviours will lead us to to maintain the balanced state of chakras and achieve our goal.
I will write in future post about chackras cleansing and rebalancing techniques.
Description of chakras
Root chakra (MULATHARA) - this chakra is located at the bottom of our spine and is mainly responsible for our survival process and basic needs. This chakra is connected to adrenal gland. The color of root chakra is red. Root chakra shares the deepest connection to the physical body and world. Transcendence to corresponding upper chakra from root chakra primarily depends on the childhood experiences and brought up. Good child hood leads to faster transcendence while unpleasant and unsafe childhood often leads to anxiety, depression and trauma which indicate the blockage in root chakra.
Sacral chakra (SVADHISHTANA) - This chakra is also known as swadhisthana chakra , it is mainly responsible for sexual activities and attraction. This chakra is connected to testis in men and ovaries in women, and also governs gonads gland. The color of this chakra is orange. Once we achieve the basic survival needs, our soul move towards the sacral chakra. During this phase of life, we understand the process of interaction and attraction with opposite sex.
Solar plexus chakra (MANIPURA) - This chakra is also known as manipura chakra and it is responsible for will power and knowledge. Solar plexus chakra governs the functioning of pancreas and the color of solar plexus chakra is yellow. During the transition from lower chakra to solar plexus, our will power compels our soul to understand how everything works around us and our soul serves its quench by acquiring more and more knowledge. Most of us in this world will only realize the power of lower three chakras throughout the life.
Heart chakra (ANAHATA) - This chakra is also known as anahata chakra. It is essentially responsible for love and communication. This chakra is connected to thymus gland and it is represented by green color. Heart chakra is the gateway to upper higher chakras and we reach here after completing all the basic survival needs, knowing enough about sexuality and attraction and acquiring apt information about, mostly everything around us. Our soul searches for something beyond this world, beyond the real and then it reaches to the gateway of higher consciousness. Our consciousness expands as we reach higher and higher. The higher we reach, the more we connect to creation and the less we relate to the lower three chakras. For eg, we don’t worry much about power, sex and money rather we search for more love, peace and spiritual wisdom.
Throat chakra - (VISUDDHA) This chakra is also known as vishuddha chakra and it is responsible for speech and expression. Throat chakra governs the action of thyroid gland and the color for this chakra is blue. After ascending towards throat chakra, we realize that there is more beyond power, money and day to day survival. So we start accepting these thoughts by expressing ourselves to others via our speeches and thoughts and tell them the truth beyond the physical.
Third Eye chakra (AJNA) - It is also known as ajna chakra. Commonly referred as the third eye, this chakra is responsible for psychic and intuitive abilities and it is associated with pituitary gland. The color of brow chakra is indigo. Reaching up to brow chakra, our consciousness expands to the level where in we can see, hear and actually feel things and life beyond the physical through our psychic and intuitive abilities.
Crown chakra (SAHAARARA)- This chakra is also known as sahasrara chakra and it is responsible for spiritual growth. This chakra regulates pineal gland. The color of this chakra is violet. Crown chakra is activated when the other 6 chakras are completely balanced and cleared. In this phase we access our higher self, sometimes referred as god, angels, spirit guides which are synonyms for the ultimate source-the creation. This stage can be achieved by kundalini awakening and meditation.
*Interesting why different crystals can help us with balancing chakras?
When you take and will look through glass prism on pure sun light it will contains spectrum of seven colours in similar order what our chakras. The crystals what are assigned and matched to our specific chakras have often similar colour what chakra they are sign to help with, so they will reflect and emitate the light through our body the same helping with balancing the chakras.
It is proven physics that whenever a ray of pure light passes through a prism, then it gets divided into seven different colors known as spectrum of light and these colors are arranged in ascending order of their frequency and decreasing order of wavelength. With that I mean to say that red has the lowest frequency and highest wavelength whereas violet has the highest frequency and lowest wavelength.
As explained above, chakras also have same arrangement of colors, with same order of frequency and wavelength. Here we see a strong corelation between color of chakras and color of spectrum.
This can lead us to fascinating conclusion, everything is connected and we can be also called light being.
What do we need the knowledge of the chakras for?
While Western esotericism has become interested in the Eastern concept of the chakras, science has so far been unable to prove their existence and operation. Nevertheless, for many millennia, Eastern medicine has been based on this ancient knowledge. Today, however, not only eastern doctors are interested in this topic. Contemporary bioenergotherapists, yogis and reiki practitioners try to master the functions of chakras, the colors assigned to them, and the organs for which they are responsible. They use this knowledge in their daily practice.
