YOUR ULTIMATE GUIDE TO CHAKRA MEDITATION

Chakra healing opens your blocked energy channels.

Meditation is an age-old mind-body technique that aims to stimulate our thoughts and elevate the levels of our consciousness. The concept of this healing process needs to be clear for a better understanding of chakra meditation. By raising our state of awareness, meditation calms our mind and nervous system. The second sutra of Patanjali Yoga Sutra, a collection of Sanskrit sutras (aphorisms), is Tatra Pratyaya-Ikatanata Dhyanam. It expounds the concepts of attention, reflection and contemplation. According to this sutra, allowing your thoughts to flow in an uninterrupted stream results in contemplation (dhyana). When you allow free flow of unidirectional thought, it leads you to a state of mediation. Another sutra of Patanjali Yoga, Dhyanam Nirvishayam Manha, defines meditation as a state of mind where it is free from all sensual thoughts. This mind-body technique allows you to focus your attention on the self or ‘atman’.

What is Chakra Meditation?


Chakra is the Sanskrit word for ‘wheel’. In Chakra meditation, energy centres of the human body are referred to as wheels or chakras. Proponents of Chakra Meditation theorize that blocked energy centres or channels of the human body can lead to physical and psychological ailments. This form of meditation helps in opening up these energy centres and restoring their balance. It should be practiced under the supervision of a guru or teacher at the initial stage. However, you can continue doing it on your own once you have mastered all the techniques.
