Human Chakras: Chakra Healing
Do human chakras really exist?
Are they simply the flights of fancy or do they have some real substance in them?
How to know?
What do you think?
What do the culture and the tradition tell us about it?
Conventional literature on this topic is full of all esoteric and mystical claims in an unconvincingly authoritative way. Sounds like they are talking of another world altogether that you and I do not seem to have any real connection with!
How to know?
Experience them!
But if the process of experiencing is too tedious, you won't feel like undergoing it. After all you have other things to do in life too!
What's the use?
Health.
That sounds OK, but what's the way?
OK, let me define them the way I experienced them, shredded of all their mysticism they are shrouded in, and grounding them in real physical terms of muscular biology.
Chakras are energy vortices in the body, in which the energy gets trapped like a whirlwind. The flow of energy is held ineffective by the rigid muscular armor that keeps them blocked at those points.
Now, what energy is this?
It's the energy that gives us life. It's the energy that makes us interested in whatever is there in front of us. It's the energy that makes us interact with the world around in its totality in the most joyful way.
It simply is. And it's dynamic. It enters the body and then leaves it only to re-enter and thus close the loop. Just like the flow of electricity!
Don't you find some people more energetic than the rest around them? They might be quite lean and frail but still, they are energetic. It doesn't have to do anything with their body structure or strength.
They simply don't stop the flow of energy through their body; or do so less than the rest.
Let's move on to the journey of opening all these chakras:
The first, namely the root-chakra, is located on the pelvis in between the genitals and the anus where the first muscular rigidity of the body takes its toll on the position of the hips.
The second chakra, namely the sacral-chakra , is located 2 inches below the naval where another muscle rigidity gives a slouch to the lower back.
The third one is the solar-plexus-chakra located above the diaphragm , which gives a slouch to the upper back.
The fourth chakra, i.e., the heart-chakra located on the second vertebra gives the first slouch to the shoulders.
The fifth one is the throat-chakra located on the throat gives the second slouch to the shoulders, and a habitual bend to the neck stopping the head from being held high.
Then comes the turn of the third-eye-chakra located between the two eyebrows, that gives the first shrinkage to the lips and to the eyes distorting the positioning of the jaws and hence, generating all the vision problems.
Last comes the crown-chakra located on the top of the head, giving the second shrinkage to the lips and to the eyes further distorting the positioning of the jaws and hence, further generating more vision problems.
