They call the phenomenon as the Chakra Energy. To a layman, it is the energy generated by the seven primary energy centers in the body. Interestingly, all these seven energy centers are situated in the upper half of the body, i.e., from head to the base of spine. These primary energy centers are:
* Root or the Base Chakra (RED) located at the base of the spine, known as the coccyx.
* Sacral Chakra (ORANGE) located in the lower abdomen.
* Solar Plexus Chakra (YELLOW) located in the stomach area.
* Heart Chakra (GREEN) situated in the center of the chest.
* Throat Chakra (BLUE) located at the base of the throat.
* Brow Chakra (INDIGO) situated on the forehead.
* Crown Chakra (VIOLET) situated on top of the head.
Though invisible, these Chakras constantly and continuously rotate in the bodies at their stated positions. This movement is responsible for the production of energy, called Chakra Energy.
If their movement is not in sync, the health ” physical or mental ” is bound to suffer.
So, whats exactly Chakra Energy and how it influences our physical and mental well being? The Chakra System in our body is primarily responsible for the smooth functioning of every organ. As every bodily organ is connected with the brain through a complex web of nerves, the Chakras rotate to provide the necessary energy for all the nerves and organs so that they perform their natural functions in an unhindered manner. They not only rotate, but also the movement of their rotation is so synchronized that they complement each other in a unique way.
This balance in the Chakra movement is whats precisely required to enjoy a healthy existence.
The next question that arises in our quest for knowing more about Chakra Energy is how easy or difficult it is to achieve a balance in the movement of these Chakras? With practice, perseverance, and belief, nothing remains difficult forever. Undoubtedly, it is not a learn overnight process, but the modus operandi is pretty simple. All it involves is to sit in a convenient body posture, and relax and feel every body part ” from the visible organs to the minutest cell within. Early on, youll feel several distractions, like body pain, wavering thoughts, diverse emotions etc., but if you stick with the routine and perform this exercise at least half an hour daily, the results will be positive.
You may ask if achieving physical and emotional well being is so simple, then why are the incidents of such ailments on the rise? The answer is pretty obvious. The advancements in the modern day living have translated into our increasing reliance on the materialistic things. In the worldly pursuits, man has slowly but surely lost contact with the spiritual aspect of his existence. This myopic mindset has robbed humans of their earthiness.
Fortunately, everything is not lost forever because the Chakra Energy is within, and you can correct the Chakra movements anytime you want to change your life for better. All it requires is sustained effort and a strong desire to make a healthy change in your life. If you appreciate and understand your body and its simple requirements, then balanced Chakra movements is not too difficult to achieve. Originally, our needs are not meant to go beyond what Mother Earth can naturally provide. However, the imbalance of Chakra movements is the price we have collectively paid for the scientific advancements. And Chakra balancing is the answer to all your health-related questions in the Twenty First Century.

It is very unfortunate that in the West we usually have no knowledge of chakras, until we decided to find out ourselves.
Thank you Samarth, That was lovely to hear. I feel your father felt very proud when you asked him about psychic protection. Proud that you are now ready to start your spiritual journey. He is right about meditation – it cannot be taught to someone who does not want to learn. But when you do want to learn there is nothing wrong with asking people’s advice on how to progress. It sounds like your father wanted you to learn about meditation, psychic protection etc. but in your own time. Without him thrusting it on you. He sounds like a wise man.
Its really very inspirational. I also belong to India and had knowledge of chakras since childhood. Anyways Lisa, yesterday when my father and I had gone for a morning walk, I casually asked my father about Psychic protection. And to my surprise, my father told me that he had been performing this since even before my birth. Then I recalled some past events. My father, when meditating, used to slowly waive his hand from one side to the other from over his head regularly i.e. left to right & vice versa. And through this, he said, he had been protecting our whole family from troubles. And you know, he also said that he wanted me to learn everything about meditation all by myself, coz meditation cant be thrust upon a person..
