Chakras: The Energy Centers of our Body
What are Chakras?
'Chakra' is a Sanskrit word, meaning wheel or disk. In terms of our body, a chakra is a vital point, which vibrates with
energy. It spins and draws energy from the universe, and this energy flows between chakras along pathways called
'nadi's.
Scientifically, a chakra is a point where one or more important glands are present. Proper, healthy functioning of these
glands ensures healthy living. Energy-wise, when the chakras are vibrating with positive energy, a person is healthy.
Each chakra governs the body parts linked to the gland, and is linked to certain emotions as well. Imbalance in the
chakras could cause physical/ mental/ emotional problems, and vice versa.
The Seven Chakras
There are many chakras in our body, but seven are the most important.
The Root or Muladhar Chakra
The Muladhar chakra relates to basic survival instincts, and is the foundation for the whole chakra system. When this
chakra is in harmony, it brings a balance of stability and flexibility to our life. This chakra is also related to the
grounding of a person - the force which keeps us firmly connected with ground realities, and also build strong
foundations on which to base our life.
The Sacral or Svadisthana Chakra
The main aspect of this chakra is sexuality. It is the center of emotions, pleasure, sexuality and creativity. It is
influenced by the moon, and in turn affects our emotions.
The Solar or Manipur Chakra
The solar chakra relates to self-esteem and self image, and consequently affects home, family and long-term
relationships. It's element is fire, and it represents our action, our will, our vitality and our transition from base,
survival instincts to higher emotions. In terms of emotions, it represents warmth. Those who are emotionally cold, or
frequently hot-tempered, have a problem in this chakra.
The Heart or Anahata Chakra
The Anahata Chakra is related to love, trust, compassion, equilibrium, well-being and higher emotions. It is adversely
affected by stress. Lack of giving/ receiving enough love also causes problems in this chakra.
The Throat or Vishuddha Chakra
The throat chakra represents communication - of all kinds. Whenever we have a communication problem, either with
ourselves or others, the throat chakra gets affected. It also is the centre of growth and creativity, and governs all forms
of expression, including creative.
The Brow or Ajna Chakra
Ajna Chakra is also greatly related to the spiritual development of a person. It is also the chakra which influences
intuitions, clairvoyance and psychic abilities. This is the chakra of time, awareness and light. In Hindu scriptures, the
this chakra is often represented by a flame, or a third eye posititioned vertically between the eyebrows.
The Crown or Sahasrar Chakra
This is the chakra which connects our energy system to the universe. That is, the universal energy enters our body
through this chakra. This is the most subtle and advanced of all the chakras, and is related to pure consciousness (the
ultimate truth).
