The word CHAKRAS means “WHEEL OR VORTEX.” They are vortexes of energy. We are receiving energy from the Cosmos. Remember: EVERYTHING IS ENERGY AND THEREFORE WE ARE ENERGY TOO!
This energy coming from the cosmos is supposed to be kept into the Chakras in order to give us extra energy and live better. The problem is: CHAKRAS ARE NOT HOLDING THE COSMIC ENERGIES! Why? Because our chakras are not developed and we waste too much energy because of the way of life we have: TOO STRESSFULL! Stress is, in modern times, one of the worst ways to waste energy. If we do not work with stress then our chakras will not work properly. Here is when MEDITATION COMES. Yoga without meditation is mere exercises, but YOGA IS MORE THAT MERE EXERCISES.
THE MAIN GOAL OF YOGA IS THE UNIFICATION WITH YOUR INNER MASTER (ATMAN). Please, check ATMAN AND THE SOUL.
Chakras are energetic anthems supposed to perceive beyond the physical body. The five senses are for the physical body, the chakras are the senses of the Astral body. So, we have five senses plus seven chakras, TOTAL: 12 SENSES. The ANAHATA has 12 senses and the philosophy of Jesus, as the philosophy of the yogis in India, is the philosophy of the heart, which has 12 petals!
The philosophy of the heart is: NON-VIOLNECE, which is tolerance, comprehension, love, etc. All great Masters spoke about the values of the Spirit. Our soul supposed to learn that in life; but usually that is not the outcome. Why? Because of the system: Economy, jobs, politics, etc. We really need a change is we really want our chakras to work. That change cannot come in a mechanical way, we must be aware of our own responsibilities. HAPPYNESS, PEACE, HARMONY AND OTHER BEAUTIFUL THINGS IN LIFE, AS THE WELLBEING OF OUR PLANET, IS OUR RESPOSABILITY! Do not expect for people to help you to improve your spiritual development. It is your own responsibility too!
How can someone practice NON-VIOLENCE when that person is full of stress? No way, first you need to control stress, you need to control whatever triggers violence and stress is a real great problem! Please read: STRESS AND TECHNOLOGY.
Understanding the functions of the chakras will help you to reduce stress, but remember: NOTHING CAN REPLACE EXERCISING, SPECIALLY JOGGING!
Combining YOGA and meditation is the way to get the best from both to improve your chakras, your health, your concentration, etc.
KUNDALINI YOGA IS THE BEST TO DEVELOP THE CHAKRAS. NEVERTHELESS, IT REQUIRES MORE THAN JUST PRACTICING THE THECHNIQUES, BUT IT ALSO REQUIRES THE PRACTICING OF THE PHYLOSOPHY OF THE HEART!
Now, let’s study the chakras to comprehend all this better:
THAT IS COMING SOON!
