Spotlight Topic - The 7 Chakras
What is a Chakra? Chakras are known as the body’s energy centers. Though we are said to possess countless chakras, there are seven major chakras vertically spanning the midline of the body from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Each chakra governs a particular area of the body, element, emotion, and mental state. When the chakras are open, they allow a free flow of energy that facilitates a balanced and healthy life. The chakras are associated with particular deities that represent a different aspect within us. They mirror our emotions and behaviors and reflect to the subconscious feelings, habits, and thoughts that make-up or foster our growth. Each is connected to a higher brain center. Chakras in the legs relate to animal instinct and consciousness, while chakras above Muladhara or first chakra relate to human consciousness and spiritual evolution. Symbolism is important for awakening the chakras. Each chakra is represented by a color, a yantra (geometrical shape), a beej mantra (sacred seed sound), an animal symbol, divine beings, and a lotus flower with a specific number of petals. The chakras are subtle manifestations of human consciousness, and their purification enables kundalini energy to rise upward for the ultimate yogic goal of self-realization.
