Perceiving the Chakras

Lecture based Questions:

1. What are chakras?

A chakra is an organ. It can be perceived in the Etheric Body as a vortex or whirlpool of energy. It acts as a receptor. Also a few of them work in a transmitting capacity. Mostly, we can consider them as sensory organs. They act as telephones to various higher bodies and they respond to the physical and emotional environment. Each nerve plexus in the physical body has a chakra of some sort positioned there. The seven major chakras communicate with a correlating body, from the physical to the Monad.

2. Describe the appearance of the seven major chakras:

Ledbetter and Choa both offer some color illustrations of the major chakras. Keep in mind when you view those paintings that real chakras are organic, always changing, spinning, and usually dirty. The petals or sections of any chakra are actually independently spinning vortexes that have joined to form the wall of the chakra. We can examine the chakras from the Mental Body.

•Base: A simple flower shape like a poppy, usually four sections in the vortex wall. When healthy, it is deep ruby red, but normally watermelon to tomato red. Religious/spiritual people tend to have atrophied Base Chakras. Some are the size of peas or buttons. A healthy and well-maintained Base should extend almost to the shoulder blades and the backs of the knees. It should be a clear and beautiful red with flecks of gold, with strong ridges on the sections.

•Spleen: Slightly more complicated in design like a chamomile daisy, the petals should look puffy. When healthy, variegated gold, light green, and yellow, with flecks of pink and lavender. A well-balanced chakra is roughly the size of a dinner plate. The size does not vary readily, but the puffiness does. A flat chakra should receive energizing.

•Solar Plexus: Intricate in design, like a Michaelmas daisy, the walls are always undulating as they spin. In size and shape they also resemble those large deep fried tortillas that salad comes in at Mexican restaurants. Gold-orange is the ideal color here, but usually has many variations of green in it, with blue flecks. A dirty chakra will look grayish-green. A depleted chakra will look thin and see-through.

•Heart: Like a beautiful rose, the walls scintillate their broad sections, resembling some living exotic sea creature. An ideal chakra is primarily white with pastel striations of rose pink, sky blue, and gold. The normal chakra has all the colors in between with some mustard yellow. A well-developed chakra extends wider than a dinner plate and blooms outward as a rose would.

•Throat: Usually the width of a bread plate, the complicated wall sections look like a calendula. Ideally, this chakra is white and gold with blue and some emerald green. When a person is expressing himself with purposeful energy, it extends outward like a trumpet at about the same size. Usually, it is lopsided or shrunken according to a person’s practices in self-care, self-expression. Someone with an angry temper habit would have dirty red here.

•Third Eye: This is an extremely elaborate organ with several parts, most of them dormant until the 3DI. When at rest in a normal person, it is roughly the size of a demitasse cup. When active, it begins to swirl and extend to the size of a salad bowl. When the unicorn function is engaged, what looks like said horn will extend from the center of the flower. An eye can be seen at the end of the horn. This is used to observe microscopic details, remote viewing, and the perception of truth. White, gold, and blue with some violet are the ideal colors here.

•Crown: Often represented by the lotus flower, a healthy and well-balanced chakra does resemble this in size. The most complex of all the chakras, many of its parts do not become active until the 6DI. As the person increases her/his skills in meditation and understanding of the Divine Plan, the amount of active sections correspondingly increase and become more dynamic. The chakra should be mainly gold with flecks of white and violet.

3. What are the three ways that we can perceive the chakras?

1) Scan Etherically, as with Pranic Healing.

2) Perceive Astrally—you get a freeze-frame picture with color and shape.

3) From the Mental Body you can zoom in onto a chakra, observe the finest detail, and enter the chakra. Through the unicorn telescope we get small and large.

4) Call on your Guardian Angel to guide you and to explain what you are seeing.

4.What causes pollution or imbalance in the chakras?

•Negative thinking and allowing scattered energies to pull you in different directions. This causes the chakras to move out of harmony.

•Critters living inside the chakras are caused by habitual feelings and thoughts. As their parent, you would do best to transform them rather than to destroy them.

•When you believe in chaos, calamity, crisis, illness, it creates a lesion in the chakra.

•When you're being attacked (physical, psychic, or illness).

•Sexual abuse creates the greatest problem in most people’s chakra troubles. When a person has been sexually attacked, the subconscious mind cuts off the connection between the chakras below the waist and the chakras above the waist. The heart chakra takes on the work of the base chakra. The Kundalini is severed. Any bad experience before the age of seven is paying off karmic debt. Flower said you relive all your initiations through the age of seven.

5. Scrying Exercise: Chakra Analysis

No particular order is required for this. You may view any chakra that you wish. You are looking for size, shape, patches of shadow, and for energy flow up the Kundalini stem. Pay special attention to engorged or congested pockets. Pranic Healing_sm techniques are very effective on treating chakras. Also, you may make yourself small to enter the chakra and cleanse and heal through creative guidance.

6. Why and how does this work? What would be the most appropriate use of this technique?

Chakras should be monitored and cleansed every day, just as we brush our teeth and wash our faces. A quick and simple technique should be chosen for daily maintenance.

From the Mental Body we can perceive the greatest detail, and it is imperative to listen to the guidance of the Guardian Angel to understand the information and to be guided to what is important.

7. Draw or describe one of your helpers.

You have hundreds of helpers, teachers, and guides. Choose one that hs been in contact with you recently and record some impressions, such as perfume, color, a recent message, a symbol, or anything else that you have received.

Flowers of Life

All chakras are vortexes of power and energy. They act as conduits of frequencies from the higher dimensions. Through them we actuate all manifestations in the physical dimension. The seven major chakras create the flow of balance within the physical body. Their clearance and wellness are necessary for the flow of right thinking in correlation to our manifestation of physical life. Besides the main chakras, there are many lesser chakras of varying sizes and functions. Each holds an important role in the well being of the physical body. Each is physically positioned on a plexus of nerves. The major chakras also have their connectors to the higher bodies and their various spiritual attributes harmonize with each of the seven rays.

The electrical pulses of the nervous system are what you might call the transmuting force of all thought. In the human body, the maintenance of the nervous system becomes personal responsibility as the personality becomes increasingly conscious. In animals and simpler life forms, the chakras draw life energy into the physical body and remain somewhat clear conduits. It is negative thought and emotion that clog the energy fields and bring about destructive tendencies in the body. One should constantly remember that negativity is contagious, and one’s pets may manifest disease and neurosis as extensions of the owner. I do not need to explain the karmic consequences of such behavior.

All planetary and stellar bodies have their own chakra systems. They do not correlate to the chakras of the human body. Instead, they perform many tasks not within the scope of human experience. Drawing in streams of life-sustaining energy, planetary chakras pull in from the universe impulses of change, development, and creation. They are not stationary (in a geographic sense) as we might envision them, but they move so slowly to our miniaturized perceptions that we would not notice much difference during a single lifetime. These vortexes whirl with a majestic pace.

Someone living at a chakra site will note fluctuations in temperature not aligned to the climate. Also the topography tends to conform itself to the spiritual winds of the vortex. These are places devotees seek in order to feel their physical bodies in tune with the Planetary Logos and the mighty Deva Lords who govern the areas. It is not necessary to travel to such places for communication with the Logos, but someone whose consciousness holds tightly to many obstructions might find the experience gratifying.

Let me now state how important each of you are to the network of Light. Without each of you sincerely endeavoring to connect to the Higher Worlds, there would be little result in our efforts to change the ratio of positive to negative energy. As you continue to build your daily structure of blessing and renewal, you change the sound and fabric of the universe and also help us to implement the projects that we have in mind for humanity.

The chakras of the human body spin at basically the same rate when they are balanced. Each is made of components that also spin within the vortex, creating the effect of sections of a disk.

The Base Chakra is vital for worldly success at all levels. It must remain clear of anger most of all. This chakra can create harmony within the physical environment when it is clear and well attuned.

The Spleen Chakra regulates the autonomic nervous system and the life force of the body. It is easily damaged and easily healed, and so must be monitored during healing sessions. The will to live dwells from this center, and is affected by the environment that the individual chooses to create around itself.

The Solar Plexus Chakra not only rules the emotions but also serves as a radar dish for the emotions of others. This is the most easily polluted of all the chakras and should be cleaned daily under ideal conditions. This treatment is quick and should not take much time or effort. A simple command suffices to do the work.

The Heart Chakra invokes the self-image of the individual and reveals the expectations of that person’s lifetime. The entire profile of the family history is imbedded therein, and can be observed for therapeutic purposes. Phobias and psychosomatic problems stem from this chakra, as well as the general relationship climate.

The Throat Chakra gets little attention in spiritual circles, yet it is key to many aspects of the clairvoyant life. Not only is it important for a well-balanced and gently structured discipline of daily activity, but it also is the net that receives messages from the Mental World. Many people with self-loathing have atrophied Throat Chakras, and must repair these before they can experience success in their endeavors.

The Third Eye Chakra is generally perceived to be important for clairvoyance, but it is actually a conduit to the Soulic state of consciousness. It has the tendency to pop out during early clairvoyant development, and resemble a unicorn horn as it involuntarily responds to other people with psychic abilities. With focus and practice, this chakra is the portal for close and wide perception.

The Crown Chakra is very active in all those who meditate on a daily basis. It can also become polluted with fear or critical emotion. This pollutes the information that the person receives, so it is important to always invoke the Spirit of Truth when asking for guidance.

Gamaliel:

Each of the chakras should be of equal size with the exception of the seventh (the crown) , which is smaller than the other six. When one is unduly large it takes power from the other chakras and prevents their similar growth. So work for that imbalanced chakra of yours to come back into its normal size for this time in your life and you will have freedom from overly stimulated nervous pressures.

In order to work on the decrease of the third chakra, you simply concentrate on spiritual, earnest, well-disciplined and well-controlled living. The other centers will take care of their own growth. At no time should you think of any of them as extending their size. This must occur without forcing, but by natural means of enfoldment. There is not much else for you to do physically. It is more essential that you be attuned spiritually to the higher Beams in love and relaxed attention than that you act objectively.
