Cleanse your Chakras
Chakras are the focal points or energy points in the body. They are the spinning vortex that cannot be seen through eyes but can be felt, sensed or seen with intuition. Chakras store the energy of thoughts, feelings, memories, experiences, and actions. They influence and direct our present and future mindset, behavior, emotional health, and actions. In total there are 114 Chakras in a human body in which 2 are outside the body, 112 inside the body out of which 4 function automatically as per the energy gathered in other chakras. So, we have 108 Chakras that can be balanced using Yoga & other exercises but there are 7 primary Chakras along the spine that can be used during a Meditation process to influence and activate other Chakras in the body. Before you move on to intense Meditation or Enhanced Meditation, it is important to cleanse your 7 Chakras. Most people have 1-2 blocked Chakras due to which the energy cannot flow or circulate throughout the body. One can stand or sit in front of a fire or a lamp for a few minutes then turn backward and observe the fire for a few minutes to feel the warmth of the fire to cleanse each Chakra. Lighting a sacred fire can be tedious every day so we suggest an alternate below.
There is a well-known exercise in Reiki to cleanse your Chakras. Use one of your hands and place it 8-10 inches away from the Chakra position with your palm facing your body, starting with the Root Chakra rotate your hand in a counter-clockwise motion for 7-10 times or till you feel the energy moving in your hand. Then shake off your hand as if getting rid of the negativity gathered on your hand by letting it go to the ground or the floor you are standing on. Then rub both your hands and repeat the process in a clockwise motion. Once done with Root Chakra, shake and rub your hands again and move on to the next i.e. Sacral Chakra, Solar Chakra, Heart Chakra, Throat Chakra. After Throat Chakra, bring your hands adjacent to your ears to cleanse the right & left side of your brain. Then move to the Third-eye Chakra (Brow Chakra) respectively. Once you’ve cleansed your Third-eye, use both your hands to cleanse the energy around your ears in the similar manner described above followed by cleansing the back of your head using one hand. Now, while dealing with Crown-Chakra start rotating your hand in a clockwise motion first then repeat the process in counter-clock motion. Remember to shake off your hands and rub your palms together every time you start with a new Chakra.
You may notice results in 2-3 weeks if you follow this exercise daily. You would feel higher energy levels & improved mental & physical health using this exercise. Also, you may do this process for anyone else by making them stand or sit in front of you. You can also cleanse a room or an area by using both of your hands by rotating it in a counter-clock motion first then clockwise.
Another way is to press the pointed areas shown in the image using your thumb to transmit the energy from one chakra to another starting with Root Chakra first then Sacral Chakra, Solar Chakra, Heart Chakra, Throat Chakra, Third-eye Chakra (Brow Chakra) & Crown Chakra before sitting for a Meditation to derive the best results.
Once you have mastered the basic Meditation technique for 100 days or more, where you feel comfortable doing it every day then it’s time to take it a step higher.
Now is the time to activate & practice Sushumna. Wondering why it was not discussed earlier! Note it is a very powerful practice that might affect your nervous system or body both positively & negatively. It might create disturbances in your sleeping routine or mental system if not done properly with guidance. But since this website is designed to unleash yourself as a master, so all information is shared to bring out the best in you!
You must have heard of beej mantras to activate the energy flow to balance your chakras i.e.
Chant LAM: Muladhara. Root chakra. Element: earth. Energy: safe, grounded. Action: I am.
Chant VAM: Svadisthana. Sacral chakra. Element: water. Energy: in the flow. Action: I feel.
Chant RAM: Manipura. Solar Plexus chakra. Element: fire. Energy: self-mastery. Action: I do.
Chant YAM.: Anahata. Heart chakra. Element: air. Energy: love, the drum that needs no drummer. Action: I love.
Chant HAM: Vishuddha. Throat chakra. Element: ether. Energy: creativity, expression, purification. Action: I speak.
Chant AUM: Ajna. Brow Chakra/Third eye chakra. Element: transcendent. Energy: mind. Action: I see.
Sahasrara. Crown chakra. Chant: instead of chanting, we just listen. Element: nothing, everything, and all that is between and beyond that. Action: I know.
Repeat each mantra till the time you experience sensation, movement or vibration at the Chakra position shown in the image above, then move to the next one. After reaching Crown Chakra experience bliss flowing all through your body. Believe in the notion of nothingness & experience this ecstasy for as long as you can. If practiced at regular intervals this is where you attain Siddhis or mystical powers, signs or images. Since you are a Master of your own path, it is your duty to understand these visions by either researching or consulting yourself.
