First Day - First Chakra - Red

 

First Chakra: Muladhara/Root

 

 

All foundations rest upon the earth--the universal ground for all that

we do. Our bodies are the earth of our spirit, the foundation, the

home. To connect with the body is to connect with the earth, to be

grounded in the biological reality of existence.

 

Situated at the base of the spine, the first chakra is the foundation

for the entire chakra system. It is here we build the foundation for

the entire chakra system. It is here we build the foundation for the

temple of the body--the anchor for the Rainbow Bridge. Without a

strong, rooted foundation, little else can be accomplished. We must

have soil firm enough to provide stability, yet yielding enough to be

penetrated by roots. The anchoring of this temple digs deep into the

earth, for its Sanskrit name, muladhara, means root.

 

The foundation contains the temple's energy by defining its scope,

edges, and boundaries. It defines a place, as a basic context of all

that happens to us. It gives us a ground, a home, an anchor point for

our experience. The foundation largely determines the shape of the

structure above, determining what it can hold, how high it can build,

what kind of stresses it can withstand. Thus damage to this chakra is

reflected in each and every chakra above.

 

To build a strong foundation is to gain solidity. Solidity allows us

to be firm and make boundaries. Solidity has consistency, repetition,

accountability. Our bodies are the solid form of our existence; they

have definable boundaries. To be solid is to face what is in front of

us without flinching, to remain anchored in truth in the face of

opposition, and to remain calm and secure.

Thank you Dhyana! I remember that you posted this

each day during the Spring Shaktipat and it was so

helpful...I enjoyed reading along even though I was

not participating. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that

I bought the book...it is wonderful.

 

Blessings & love,

Claudia
