Today we know that a person is a rather complex energy system. Such constituent elements as chakras are distinguished in it. But not everyone imagines how they work, why they are needed. Let's take a closer look at what the chakras are and what function they perform in the body. The question is not completely theoretical. The practical application of knowledge about the structure of the human energy system can improve the quality of life. Interesting?
What are chakras?
It must be remembered that a person, in addition to the physical, has several more subtle (energy) bodies. Each has its own function. For example, the mental accumulates thoughts, is responsible for logic, and the astral - for feelings and emotions. Through energy, people communicate with each other. And there is interaction through the chakras. These are peculiar energy centers in the etheric body of a person. It does not coincide with the physical, has a slightly larger size. On its surface there are seven pairs of "funnels" from which the rays emanate and enter, organized in the process of contacts with other people. To understand what the chakras are, you need to look at the world through the eyes of a clairvoyant. That is, to perceive not only the physical body, but also the subtle, in particular, the etheric. It is heterogeneous. Energies constantly flow along its surface, accumulating in certain places. They are the chakras. They are also called lotuses. The formations really resemble a beautiful flower, capable of opening petals towards the light or slamming it under negative influence. Translated chakra means a spinning wheel with knitting needles. And indeed it is. In the ether field, this thin-energy organ rotates at a crazy speed, accumulating and emitting streams.
Why do we need chakras?
Before we proceed to describe these structures, we need to understand what function they perform in the body. When people interact with each other or with nature, they receive (give) servings of energy. It seems to us that we perceive the environment through the senses. All subtle fields are involved in this process. They process the received "impressions", assimilate and transmit them outside. All this happens through the chakras. They are the first to receive a signal from the interlocutor, for example. Moreover, subtle bodies feel not only what a person wants to say or demonstrate, but also his radiation, formed by true feelings, thoughts, intentions. Remember, did you encounter a situation where the interlocutor seems to be saying the right things, but do you feel false? It is the chakras that warn the subconscious, and it intuitively tries to prevent the brain. There is nothing secret in the energy space. We get complete information about everything that happens. But she basically does not reach consciousness. However, thin fields are sensitive to it. Chakras close from a negative blow. From this, over time, the personality suffers, the organs of the physical body become ill.
How are chakras related to the body?
There is quite a lot of information that thin-energy formations are responsible for the work of the physical body. This is not entirely true. Understanding what the chakras are, you need to look at their structure. These are not flat formations. They really resemble a lotus flower, whose stem is attached to the spine. As we know, it is there that the main energy channel of man goes. One by one, the force flows from the universe to the center of the earth, the other - in the opposite direction. It is with them that the chakras are associated. Rotating, they translate into space part of the energy received by man, already processed by thin fields. That is, the flows from the Universe and the earth will be filled and transformed by a person, and then radiated into space. In addition, enchantments fill certain organs with vitality. But this is not their main function. More importantly, they recycle the resulting energy, organizing the interaction of a person with the surrounding space. But, if it is negative, gives failures, then the organ associated with a particular center becomes ill. For example, if the 4 chakra closes, the cardiovascular system suffers. This center is responsible for the feeling of love. Remember the expression about a broken heart? It is associated with the work of the chakra. If a person suffers from an inseparable feeling, he feels it with his heart on a physical level, up to the formation of an ailment.
What are the chakras?
There are seven major centers in the etheric body. They are arranged in pairs. If he presents them in the form of funnels, then one will appear in front of the person, the second on the opposite side. They have the following names:
- Muladhara is the chakra of kundalini. Located in the coccyx. She is responsible for the connection of man with the earth.
- Svadistan - located at the base of the spine. She is called sexual. This center is responsible for immunity.
- Manipura Look for it should be in the navel. She is responsible for digestion, perception of the physical world.
- Anahata is located in the heart. This center is responsible for human feelings. It energizes the cardiovascular system.
- Vishuddha is located at the base of the neck. This is the so -called throat chakra . She is responsible for the respiratory system, is associated with the thyroid gland.
- Ajna is located in the forehead. This is the third eye. The center is connected with the work of the nervous system and the brain. He is responsible for transmitting information over long distances.
- Sahasrara is a chakra located above the head. It receives and distributes energy in thin fields. It is associated with the lymphatic and bone systems.
Why know all this?
Let's get a little distracted. A person who first learns that there are basic chakras, probably thinks: why all these difficulties? Why apply the acquired knowledge? In fact, you feel the work of the centers constantly, just do not connect it with energy. For example, Muladhara, the chakra responsible for communicating with the earth, gives rise to a sense of security. If it works normally, a person, as they say, has solid support. He feels confident, acts assertively, achieves great results. If this chakra is closed, then fears prevail over the person. She experiences constant, sometimes unreasonable anxiety, insecurity. If the problem is not solved, then the kidneys will suffer, there will be pains in the lower back. Often the malfunctioning of this chakra gives rise to a feeling of loneliness. Man suffers from the fact that no one in the world needs. This leads to a malfunction of the center. Which, in turn, leads to increased anxiety. This is how all chakras work. But each has its own function. Let's look at them.
Swadhisthana and its functions
This is the center of pleasure. It is associated with sexuality, joy, happiness. The energy of this chakra pushes the person in search of constant entertainment, new sensations. If the center is functioning normally, then the person enjoys the process of life. Everything that she does gives rise to inner peace, a sense of satisfaction. The result is not so important. After all, we come to the world for experience. If this chakra closes, a person is affected by negative emotions. He cannot achieve satisfaction, including sexual satisfaction. That is why he is angry, annoyed, sad. He rushes to search for new experiences, which, in turn, leave him disappointed. With serious violations, the reproductive system suffers.
Manipura What is responsible for? What is he doing?
1 chakra connects the two previous ones, which are considered instinctive, and the higher ones, which will be discussed later. He is responsible for confidence, attitude, right choice, values and beliefs. If it functions normally, it is easy for a person to determine what exactly he wants. Without a shadow of doubt, he directs actions towards the realization of a dream. Closed chakra pushes a person to conflict. He either wants to take away values from others, or feels guilty. Or maybe both. The lack of energy in this chakra gives rise to despots and victims. The former strive to enslave other people, forcing them to fulfill their whims. The latter do not have the strength to resist. They can not stand up for themselves, agree with the role of the victim. This badly affects the work of the heart and shortens the period of earthly existence.
Anahata
This center connects a person with the outside world. She is responsible for love: for herself and others. In normal work, a person is harmonious, his soul and ego act in unison. Everything around is happy. The person calmly accepts himself, others and current events. If the chakra is closed, then manifestations of imbalance are observed. For example, tearfulness, sentimentality, dependence on the opinions of colleagues or acquaintances. This is an abnormal condition. It is easy to manipulate individuals with impaired functioning of this chakra. They come under the influence of any kind of propaganda, give their vitality to solve the problems of other people. You need to love yourself in order to feel like a full-fledged person, to realize your own tasks. And for this, you should analyze your emotions, control reactions.
Vishuddha
This is the center of creativity for each individual. It pushes to a feeling of freedom, self-realization. If the chakra functions normally, the person feels himself to be a creator. She is unique and inimitable, honest with herself and others. If the center is closed for some reason, the person loses the ability to realize himself. He is unsure, does not understand what he should strive for, what to do. Often these are liars trying to pass off desire as real. Due to the inability to achieve inner harmony, the respiratory system suffers, asthma develops.
Ajna
This is the so-called third eye. It provides an opportunity to look into the unknown, to receive information directly from the Universe. The chakra is responsible for the development and work of intuition, self-awareness as an element of the big energy world. If it is closed, a person suffers an overestimated self-esteem or, on the contrary, denies the existence of something else, besides what can be felt. Violation of the work of this center leads to alcoholism, drug addiction.
Sahasrara - Chakra of Insight
This center, as already noted, takes energy from the universe. The chakra works with everyone else. She is responsible for enlightenment, spirituality, enlightenment of the individual. Her normal work leads to the emergence of a halo, as in the icons. But this is seen only by people with extrasensory abilities.
Normalization of the work of centers
It should be noted that the energy of the chakras is variable. It depends on the accumulated experience, thoughts, feelings, attitude to the world. To start the chakras, to normalize their work, many tricks are used. For example:
- Bija mantra. These are special sounds that need to be pronounced smoothly, like singing. Each center has its own sound. If you chant the word: “OM”, then Sahasrara is harmonized.
- Another technique for opening this chakra - a thousand petals - was invented by yogis. To the melodic music you must sing the word "Ogum". It is believed that the vibration of the sounds of the Sanskrit alphabet affects the work of subtle human bodies. This is what yogis use. Try it and you to run all the chakras and experience complete bliss from life.
