Seventh chakra Sahasrara

Sahasrara is an ordered energy center that accumulates, assimilates, and then transfers the necessary vital energy to a person. This chakra forms the so-called coordinating axis that unites body and mind. Today we will talk about the most important seventh chakra.

Sahasrara is the main chakra, called the crown or crown... Its symbol is a lotus with a large number of purple and snow-white petals - in total there are 2 dozen rows around their circumference, totaling 50. In the very center of the image, a circle is drawn with the outlines of the main luminaries - the Moon and the Sun. Both mandalas unite in Pingala nadi and Ida nadi with Sushumna. In this way, the duality of human existence and the need for unity are indicated. In the center of the circle there is a subtle Windu sign, which personifies emptiness.

The crown chakra is located at the top of the skull. In this case, the petals of the flower are directed upward, and the pillar of energy moves, on the contrary, downward - along the line of the spine to the legs. Sages greatly honor this chakra and relate it to the pineal gland. According to some teachings, it was this organ that became the receptacle of the human soul.

Sahasrara helps in several directions at once:

• acceptance by a person of true higher wisdom and the relationship of his mind with the Universe;
• searching for your purpose in the world and opening up opportunities for self-realization;
• awareness and acceptance of the basic rules of the Universe, promoting communication with the higher mind;
• acceptance of scientific knowledge and unconditional love energy;
• finding peace, inner warmth and peace;
• acceptance of oneself as one of the parts of everything in this world.

In accordance with the ancient teaching, at the moment when a person fully understands exactly how the Universe operates, he begins to perceive himself as part of a whole. This understanding brings him comfort, reassurance, as well as acceptance of the fact that everything that happens in his life is not accidental.

The energy of the Sahasrara is different in that in relation to this chakra there are no definitions such as a blocked or unhealthy chakra. It can be completely open, closed or open, but not completely.

The opened 7th chakra causes the harmonization of all other energy centers in the human body. Sahasrara is able to change the work of the brain, to induce a state of strong vibration in it.... In other words, the violet chakra begins to exude divine love from itself literally, illuminating the space around it and bringing spiritual relief to the people nearby. A person with an open violet chakra manifests a feeling of true love for himself and his loved ones, he becomes compassionate, all negativity and insincerity go away. When such a person moves to the upper stage of his personal development, he learns the world and the people in it, ceases to be cruel and vile. Good and evil in him merge into a single energy, and there is an acceptance of everything that happens. Such a person becomes calm, softer and more responsive, he resolves all his accumulated internal conflicts.

If a person completely changes his idea of ​​other people and current situations, treats people and events with unconditional love, he thinks more convincingly and begins to captivate others. At the same time, much of what he said becomes reality.

Most people cannot fully open the violet chakra, and for many it is completely closed. This causes an imbalance, as a result of which a person feels his own worthlessness and insignificance, and this causes a state of depression. Being in an imbalance, he feels unhappy, even without any reason - he feels bad, despite the presence of family, friends and good work nearby. If the Sahasrara is not sufficiently developed, then a person does not accept the very existence of higher forces that control our destiny. Such a person denies paranormal phenomena, becomes predisposed to all kinds of phobias, schizophrenia, manic-depressive neuroses and other mental disorders.

Incorrect work of the violet chakra manifests itself in a keen sense of self-pity and the presence of negative thoughts. They appear in the head endlessly: such a person sees the world around him mainly in dark colors, he does not like interaction with society, he does not like to communicate with other people, preferring to be in his fictional world. Physically, this chakra disorder is expressed in increased pressure, migraines, dizziness, anorexic conditions, increased sensitivity and tearfulness. With age, such people are more likely to be affected by Parkinson's disease.

The violet chakra cannot be completely closed. However, its functions directly depend on the degree of its openness. If the chakra is only slightly open, then such a person often has the feeling that he lives on his own, separate from others. He does not believe that his life can be somehow connected with the Universe and its laws, and this causes the appearance of obsessions and fears. If you do not open such a chakra, then over time it will begin to block all other flows of energy.

Holders of a poorly opened violet chakra do not see their true purpose - this causes a discord with their personal attitude, inner "I", there are many more questions than answers in life. Existence ceases to bring joy, a person experiences negativity and cannot constructively look for a way out of problems. Even the smallest difficulty incapacitates him. Such individuals simply cease to see the meaning of their life on this earth, over time this translates into a fear of death - these people are sure that after physical death there is absolutely no continuation of life. All this causes a loss of trust in higher powers and uncertainty in their own.

A person with an unopened violet chakra strives with all his might to get rid of the burden of responsibility for all the events that happen around him. Moreover, he tries to transfer it to the Universe and as a result transforms into a real fatalist. These people do not even want to hear that a lot in fate depends on personal choice. They feel like a silent toy in the hands of a higher mind and come to the conclusion that nothing depends on their actions. As a result, they cannot realize the inherent natural potential, and personal self-development is ultimately reduced to a minimum. In an effort to complete their important, in their understanding, affairs, they develop the most active activity, thereby undermining not only their spiritual, but also physical strength.

The not fully open Sahasrara causes problems associated with finding the true destiny. People do not understand what they really need, they are lost - all this causes a feeling of uselessness and a desire to leave this world. Often, such thoughts end with drunkenness, drug addiction and other vices. The life of such a person loses its meaning, he falls out of society, denies his connection with the higher mind. People in such a situation become materialists and egoists, begin to be hostile to others.

By the way, very often a closed crown cup indicates a lack of warmth and love at a young age. Growing up, such people do not find their place in the world. No matter what happens around, the soul of a person remains closed forever.

In the human body, the violet chakra, in fact, plays a dominant role. That is why it is called the crown. At the same time, it has no direct effect on tissues and organs and is not blocked by painful conditions. The only discomfort associated with this is headache caused by anger.

If a person does not feel pain in the apex of the skull, then there are any reasons for this. - ranging from poor parenting to hunger and dehydration, which often occur with an intense rhythm of life. A slight tingling and warmth in the crown are considered the main signs that the Sahasrara is working, and the personality is in direct connection with the Universe. If these sensations bring pain and become unpleasant, it means that the Universe is trying to push you to realize something important and big in life, and you resist with all your might and do not want to leave your comfort zone, no matter how many problems it brings you. The reasons for this can be different - the force of habit or the fear of change.

To activate the crown chakra, sages use mandalas, mantras, yoga, meditation and some other practices.

There are many interesting practices to open the violet chakra. The best place to start is with meditation.There are many options, while it is very important to find the way that can suit each specific person, arrange him in every sense. To start, focus, visualize, and get a good feel for the top of your head. Imagine a purple flower on it. It's easy to do - Concentrate on this as much as possible, direct all your attention to this point.

Imagine that the lotus opens up and begins to glow at the sides and upward, like a large fountain. In this case, the central part of the beam of light is directed directly to the sun, as if connecting you with the main luminary of the Universe, and all side waves diverge to the sides and pour down, returning to the very first chakra. Stay in this state for a couple of minutes. Ask the Universe a question that haunts you for a long time, or formulate your desire to gain acceptance of the worldview. Visualize the exchange - from you the light goes to the higher forces, and the Universe pours knowledge into you in a reverse flow. You should see it as if a star, pictures or letters are falling towards you.

Say the affirmation to yourself at least 7-10 times: “I am one with all my being, I am whole, I am part of a whole. I know everything to the fullest. " Then relax and feel your breath. No need to think about anything and repeat words at this moment. If it is difficult, then for every inhalation and exhalation tell yourself: "I breathe in with a feeling of joy, and I breathe out with sincere love."

Meditation sessions should be carried out in silence and complete rest. It is very important that you completely free your mind from any unnecessary thoughts, critical words, value judgments, negative experiences. You must feel absolute love within yourself. It is impossible to describe this feeling in words, but everyone is capable of feeling such a state. Frequent meditation does not allow you to immediately maximize the chakra - it takes time and perseverance. After the very first few sessions, you are unlikely to notice any changes. Moreover, some even, on the contrary, have a restless neurosis-like state. This should not bother you - in this way the energy clears the way for further spiritual development. When you start meditation, you do not need to set goals for yourself to achieve results quickly. It is important to completely exclude the involvement of reason and critical thinking from the meditative process. All you have to do is focus completely on the feeling of love.

Yoga helps to open the violet chakra. Some inverted asanas are originally designed to improve circulation to the head and upper body. To maintain pineal health and open the violet chakra, you can do the following exercises:

• rabbit pose;
• shoulder stand;
• fish gesture.

In addition to yoga and meditation, preparing the body for the flow of energy flows, the mantra Om can help open the crown chakra. It is considered one of the most ancient practices, it is distinguished by the capacity and power of sound pronunciation. It is no coincidence that the sages claim that it was with the mantra Om that the connection of people with the Universe began. When opening the violet chakra, it is very important to fine-tune the mind, which is why it is recommended to sing the mantra in complete solitude.

Play some relaxing music or the mantra itself before starting your class. Relax, your body should become heavy - you don't have to resist. If you feel any tension in the muscles, then relax them in turn, feel the flow of radiant energy dissolve and pass through you. Imagine a ball overhead: first, a descending stream of transparent energy should flow around it, but as your attention increases, it will turn golden and increase in size. It is important not only to see, but also to feel this ball.

If you have reached the state of opening of the seventh chakra, it must be maintained in this state. In addition to spiritual practices, some methods of physical cleansing will also help here.

In particular, the sages recommend giving up any food 2 times a month - this should be done on the 11th day after a new or full moon. In addition, eating a vegetarian diet and maintaining a healthy daily routine can help open the crown chakra. A person should get up at dawn at 5-6 in the morning and fall asleep before sunset.
