THE
SEVEN
CHAKRAS
The core concept of Chakra is that a human being consists of a spiritual
body which is separate from the physical body. This spiritual body
is composed of vibrations of light, each representing different energy
centers. Each energy center acts as an opening for life energy to
flow in and out, vitalizing the physical body and bringing about
development of inner consciousness. This development is closely
related to our physical, mental, and emotional interactions.
The energy centers function as pumps or valves, regulating the flow of
energy through our physical systems. We open and close these
valves as we think, feel, and perceive, and experience life.
Simply put, Chakra
is an aspect of consciousness, much like the aura. Chakra are
associated with powerful functions of the physical body, and as such are
more dense than the aura. Obviously, neither are as dense as the
physical body.
The theory of
Chakra revolves around two major physical body systems - the endocrine
system, and the nervous system. The endocrine system includes the
pituitary
gland in the head,
the thyroid glands
in the neck, the
thymus
gland in the chest,
the ovaries in the
lower abdomen, and
the sexual organs.
The nervous system components consist of the
brain
and the solar
plexus.
As seen
above, in the concept of Chakra, all senses, perceptions, and possible
states of awareness can be divided into seven categories. Each
category can then be associated with a particular Chakra. Not only
can each Chakra be associated with particular parts of the physical
body, but also particular parts of consciousness.
