subject: A Beginners Guide To Understanding The Chakra System [print this page] Chakras are known as the centers of energy and there are seven main chakras in the chakra system. The complete system of chakra is a metaphysical source which consists of 108 chakras. These chakras receive and transmit energies and are regulators of flow of vital energy.
The chakras have the responsibility for all our spiritual, mental, emotional and physical being. Our bodies are intuitive and we may be unaware of all the feelings that are experience in our body. The flow of energy in our body is associated with the Chakra system.
The function of the seven main chakras is different from each other and each chakra is associated to a different organ of the body. The location of these seven main chakras is along the spinal cord and they extend from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Since the chakra system is responsible for processing all aspects of our being, if these do not function properly and with their blockage or dysfunction disorders in the mind, spirit or body could be created.
These chakras are located in our body not as objects but as specific locations on our body. Our hands are placed on these body locations which communicate with these chakras. There is a color associated with each chakra which is the color from the visible light spectrum.
Chakra located at the base of the spine is associated with red color and symbolizes physical vitality, sacral chakra is associated with orange in color and symbolizes desire, solar plexus chakra is associated with yellow color and symbolizes self projection, heart chakra is associated with green color and symbolizes compassion and empathy, throat chakra is associated with blue color and symbolizes communication, forehead chakra is associated with indigo color and symbolizes visualization and the crown chakra is associated with violet color and symbolizes spiritual perfection.
There is a front and a rear component of each chakra. The front one is generally dominant and rear one is less dominant. When channelisation of energy occurs, the healer of energy is the recipient of energy through his own chakra system. This energy is received from the Earth and surroundings and the energy healer is the conductor. This energy can then be passed on to the patient or the receiver of energy. When you begin this extra energy enters the body first through the 1st and 7th chakra. With more practice the energy enters equally.
The manner in which the energy enters the body is like an upward flow, which starts from the lower energy centers to higher centers of energy. The chakras that are positioned at the lower side of the body are the ones which are simpler functioning but with rise there is a larger degree of chakras which are extra spiritual functioning. In the filed of energy the seven chakras are of great consequence to the energy healer.
For our overall fitness and peace a well balanced chakra system is a prerequisite. The moment you charge your chakra system your complete system of chakras attains a balance. You must charge your chakras properly and adequately with clean functioning of energy and which in harmony with its own true color nature.
