CHAKRAS

 

The chakra are the energy vortex that we have in our bodies that

bring in

the universal energies we need to remain living in bodies . Chakra

is the

Sanskrit word for wheel, the chakras are vortexes of energy present

in the

ethereal body which permeates and extends beyond the physical body.

 

There are seven major chakras and they function as pathways for

energy

to be taken in, metabolized and sent to the major nerve center

nearest

each one. Several more chakras seem to be opening up in many people

 

but for now we will begin with the traditional seven.

 

The chakras are located along the line of the spinal column and

are

composed of high frequency energy strands that the spiritual eye

perceives

as light The life force is channeled to the physical body and its

organs via

the nadis and meridians and enters the body through the chakras.

the

degree of chakra activity depends on a combination of the physical,

 

emotional, mental and spiritual development of the individual.

 

Chakras can be damaged or blocked through an emotional upset such

as

conflict, loss or, accident . Fear, anxiety and stress are common

causes of

chakra malfunction, it is the disruption of the chakra and aura

that create

disease and disturb the energy balance of the chakras.

Psychological

problems may cause 'blockages', obstructing the flow of energy into

or out

of the chakras.

 

In general the front aspects of the chakras correlate to our

emotional

function, the back to our will function, and the top three chakras

to our

reason function. Balance in our reason, will and emotion centers is

 

necessary to good health and well being. the amount of energy

flowing

through our chakras determines how well we function.

Palm Chakrasand transpersonal chakras

I also want to mention the chakras in the palms of the hands, often

 

relegated to minor status. These chakras transmit healing energy

and

receive energetic information fron the universe. The palm chakras

are used

to channel healing energies to yourself and others and to receive

impressions of the energy of a room, person, situation, etc. These

minor

chakras make a major difference in the quality of life when they

can be

opened by intention. practice in becoming aware of the energy of

the palm

chakras is a good place to start if you are at all interested in

energy work

and spiritual healing. healing chakras may also activate in the

fingertips.

 

 

Tranpersonal chakras

The most important of the emerging transpersonal chakras are the

thymus

or etheric heart in the upper chest which governs compassion and

inner

peace and the connection to world soul.

The Soulstar about a foot above the head which brings in spiritual

energy

from the spiritual core

and the Earthstar about a foot below our feet that brings in and

connects

us to the Earth energies it is important to develop the Soulstar

and

Earthstar simultaniously.

The most important change happening at this time is the

unification of the

chakra functions all the chakras are beginning to work together

much more

than in the past.

 

There are alternate colors which may be in chakras as well as or

instead of

the traditional attributes. The chakra is not always one color

there may be

other calors visible if you see aura colors. Root chakra colors

include the

earth tones as well as deep red Orange, red orange and rainbow all

are

reported in the sacral. solar plexis tends to stayyellow -- heart

can have

pink and gold in addition to green. Throat stays pale blue or sky

blue but

can include silver , brow can be indigo or purple -- crown can be

purple

or

gold or white or rainbow . There can be other colors in each

chakra of

course.

 

Lots of folks get into heated discussions about different theories

about the

chakra and energy body The truth is all the systems and true and

none of

the systems are true and that is the truth.

It does not matter if you

have 5 -8- 12 - 89 chakras in 1-7 -8 -32 auric layers it does not

matter if they exist at all or not if they are open or closed or

disks

or vortex or wheels or petals or flames.

 

What matters is that you have a way of working with energy and

reality

and have concepts that promote health and balance and make sense

to

you.

 

It does not matter if it is your own personal reality construct

that

works for you or if you choose to use one of the many systems of

defining

the energy body that various collective minds cultures have agreed

to

create and work with .

Confusion can arise when people try to reconcile different systems

or

impose one over the other or percieve one system but try to read

it

from another

awareness of the confusion will help you refine the system that you

use

to become aware of the health and balanced or unbalanced state of

your

energy body and whole self .

The only absolute is change. rules and structures and symbols and

signs and Gods and planets are tools for spiritual expression and

 

advancement just as water can be liqiud or solid ice or

insubstantial

vapor all things change .

it is all at essence Ku which is the void not emptiness but

undifferentiated potential (thats not all ku is but it will do for

this )

everything is energy all the differences we precieve are simply

variations in

frequency or " wind " patterns

We have agreed to use certain rules and blueprints but we must not

 

assume that they are inflexible

at various times the most effective rules such as those about the

structure and function of Chakra wil seem to change to reflect the

most

effective attitude at the current state of unfolding .

That which is can handle adapt and contain all these varients and

more

maybe what works for you is to sweat the details but somewhere

hold

the knowing that both the big picture and the details are in flux

are

effected and created by your ,everyone's and ALL thought will and

Love

-emotion not being a complete word for what is meant
