CHAKRA

It is proven fact that each individual is an energy system. Energy that flows through each of us is constantly in a state of movement and flow. This flow is regulated by 7 energy pumps, called Chakras. Each Chakra represents specific emotion and levels of perception, elements of Being’s consciousness and is also associated with specific parts of the body, specific function of the body, specific endocrine glands and specific nerve groups. An individuals response system is reflected in the chakras as well.

The Chakras have an optimal state of balance and flow of energy in a healthy being. The energy is harmonious and flows smoothly. When the flow energy is blocked or interrupted is experienced as an imbalance physiological or physical problem.

A subtle circular organization, containing mahabhuta, tanmatra, prana wayu and sensory principle and situated within the body, not as a part of the material body but as a supramaterial power-centre only seen in thought concentration.

There are also thousands of chakras in the physical body. You have a chakra for every joint, every organ, every gland. The chakras in your physical body are far more complex than the chakras of the emotional body.

The chakras in your physical body are fed by the 72,000 nadis, which are fed by the 3 primary nadis (and vice versa). The system is a complex loop in which the nadis feed the chakras and the chakras feed the nadis.

CAUSAL BODY

The causal body is the layer of energy beyond the higher mental body and is linked to the throat chakra and the causal chakra at the back of the head. This is the doorway to higher consciousness and links the personality to the collective consciousness of the planet. The causal body can be seen energetically as seven concentric circles of rainbow light which contain everything that is real and permanent about us. These shimmering spheres of light reflect the unique spiritual attainments of the soul. Gifts and talents that you have attained in previous lives are sealed into your causal body and made available to you through your soul when you are ready to use them.

This layer is linked with Throat Chakra

CELESTIAL BODY

Communication with the spiritual realm occurs here as do feelings of ecstasy and unconditional love. Aura is often appearing as bright, shimmering opalescent colours, one becomes more aware of the Celestial body as they raise their vibrations, level of awareness, and consciousness. As you work from the heart chakra to the sixth level, feelings of divine love and a connection with our fellow man become reality.

Chakra (Third Eye)

Consciousness is Primary and the Matter is Secondary in terms of vibrational energies. Consciousness transforms into matter at every point in the universe. This transformation is more lively at certain places. On the earth this is a Vortex and in body it is Chakras.

Chakras are part of the subtle body and control the transformation of subtle energies from higher dimensions into physical energy. There are thousands of Chakras, located at the junction points of the energy channels (nadis) of the subtle body.

The 7 Chakras located along the spine are considered to be the most important. Chakra means “wheel”, they constantly spin the world into existence.

When the Chakras are blocked or clouded, transformation is blocked, creating disharmony and suffering in our life. This may including physical suffering in form of disease or pain, financial issues. Relationship issues or any any part of our life.

When the Chakras are clear and “awakened” the mind and body become balanced and we gain full access to higher realms of existence. This way you become successful in every phase and part of life.

CHAKRAS

Just as our journey brings us from ignorance, through spiritual exploration, to Enlightenment, the lotus begins life in the mud, rises through the water to bloom in the sunlight. The Chakras are most commonly expressed as lotus flowers with a varying number of petals.

Each Chakra is associated with a coloUr, element, sense, planet, bija sound, deity. These may vary depending on ones level of awareness.
