New Light on the Chakras:
We live in an invisible sea of consciousness or mind substance,
an atmosphere of thoughts and their associated feelings. Each
one of us receives mind substance from the environment. We
process it through our own consciousness and then transmit
it back into the collective unconscious, the atmosphere of
the global mind.
In this way, our contribution to world consciousness is
automatic. As you think and feel, so you affect the global
mind in your own way.
Traditionally, the seven major chakras are viewed from
the front of the body. They appear as doorways of consciousness,
located just in front of the physical body. Each chakra
is a spinning vortex of etheric energy which channels its
own specific frequency band of consciousness to or from
the local environment.
From the base of the spine upwards, these are the traditional
names of seven major chakras:
1. Root chakra (base of the spine)
2. Sex chakra
3. Solar plexus chakra
4. Heart chakra
5. Throat chakra
6. Third eye chakra (forehead)
7. Crown chakra (above the head)
The root, sex and then the solar plexus chakras are activated
as children grow into adulthood. Having reached adulthood,
many people go on to activate their heart chakras and some
venture into the realm of the throat chakra, especially
during meditation.
The functions of the chakras are as follows:
- Instinctual. The
root chakra prepares vitality, or life energy, for the
chakras above it. It provides
the base frequency of human existence including the instinct
for survival.
- Emotional. The
sex chakra powers the basic emotions and passions of human
life.
- Intellectual. The
solar plexus chakra is used in the development of intellect
or mental ability in a linear direction. Examples of thought
expressed as linear intellect include the performing of
arithmetic and the operating of machinery.
- Holistic. The
heart chakra is developed as issues of separation are
resolved and integrated. Mind, body & spirit are seen
as facets of a human being with integrity or wholeness.
- Creative.
The throat chakra's function is creativity. It
is capable of inspiring the imagination to create new
ideas, inventions and works of art. Most scientific thinking
today is still in its early, linear phase. With
the addition of imagination, science will enter a phase
of great expansion where it will solve many mysteries
of the universe. The further development of the throat
chakra results in gaining the power of conscious creation,
the ability to consciously transform your reality.
- Spiritual. The
third eye chakra is the home frequency of your soul family.
While a person's closest soul mates can be usually counted
on the fingers of two hands, soul families are much larger.
They are extended, related groups of, typically, 2,000
individuals. When you feel a yearning for your true spiritual
home, you are remembering your connection to this level
of consciousness. In the cycle of reincarnation, it is
to this frequency of consciousness that you ultimately
ascend in spirit before planning your next physical incarnation.
- Universal. The crown chakra is your
connection to the universe on a cosmic scale. Its complete
activation brings the ultimate state of human achievement
and enlightenment, that of cosmic consciousness.
You can call the chakras by their physical position, like
solar plexus, or by their function, like intellectual. The
choice is yours.
Their names, by function, are:
1. Instinctual chakra (root)
2. Emotional chakra (sex)
3. Intellectual chakra (solar plexus)
4. Holistic chakra (heart)
5. Creative chakra (throat)
6. Spiritual chakra (third eye)
7. Universal chakra (crown)
