Kundalini Rising: Awakening the Seven Chakras
|
|
|
|
|
Within each of us resides a subtle system of channels or energy pathways (nadis), and energy centers (chakras) which are responsible for our physical, emotional and spiritual being. They are like spinning wheels of light, providing gateways to lower and higher dimensional consciousness.
Each of the seven chakras have specific spiritual qualities - which are intact within us and can never be destroyed. The kundalini or the creative life force energy, exists in everyone's body, usually in a dormant state. It is represented as a coiled snake that rests at the base of the spine, or root chakra. With dedicated practice of yoga, meditation or any other forms of spiritual development can assist in awakening the kundalini energy.
This Kundalini rising series will help you in the process of awakening your chakras, uniting the masculine and feminine energies and connecting to your higher self and the Cosmos

Kundalini Rising, Part 1: The Root Chakra
Opening the root chakra is reconnecting with the often neglected, often suppressed, savage, prima materia heart of man. It’s a tapping into the latent energy of the unconscious realms hidden beneath the soil of the human condition, dark and muddy, but alive in a way that subsumes all levels of individuation.

Kundalini Rising, Part 2: The Sacral Chakra
The Sacral Chakra is symbolized by a vermilion-orange lotus with six petals representing the following six modes of consciousness: affection, ruthlessness, vision, derision, and doubt. It is associated with the element of water, the sense of taste, confidence, sexual vitality, and its primary planet is the moon.

Kundalini Rising, Part 3: The Solar Plexus Chakra
It is also associated with digestion and movement. In this respect, our emotional self and mental correlate which are found within intuition and “gut feelings.” When this Chakra is balanced we feel endowed to lead our lives with dynamism, power and authority.

Kundalini Rising, Part 4: The Heart Chakra
This chakra is the balancing pivot between the three lower and three higher chakras. Here, our higher nature has the potential to become manifest. We are now free to “follow our own heart.” We have discovered that sacred place where the sages can hear the secrets of the universe: a language older than words.

Kundalini Rising, Part 6: Ajna, the Third-eye Chakra
A less common name for this chakra is jnana padma or “knowledge-lotus.” It bestows upon us the wisdom to act rationally and without judgment. A person with a strong Ajna Chakra has greater intuition, a strong sense of identity, and the ability to self-reflect.

Kundalini Rising, Part 7: The Crown Chakra
The cosmos has emptied its energy into us, as we have emptied our energy into it. Everything is now an eternal beacon of providence. Like Alan Watts said, “God emptied to the limit is man, and man emptied to the limit is God.”
