Seven
Chakras
The Seven Spiritual
Light Centers
As the Christ becomes the light of the world of each chakra, so the
energies of God and man meet in that chakra. And in this alchemical
union—the balance of the triangles of Alpha and Omega and the
converging of the energies of God and man—there is precipitated
the law of perfection as the flame of living truth.
It is the goal within our four lower bodies, within our being, to have
the fusion of the energies of the Father-Mother God because that fusion
is the birth of the Christ consciousness in each chakra. It begins in
the heart and proceeds through the chakras in succession above and below
the heart.
A chakra is a vortex of light—light flowing out and light flowing
in. In the release of the action of Alpha, or Spirit, energy flows out,
whereas the action of the Mother draws light into the chakras. The energy
of the Mother comes from the base of the spine.
The energy flowing in and out turns the wheels of the chakras and creates
a basket-weave effect. Ultimately, with perfected
chakras as vortices of light, man should be able to live on prana—that is where
the atmosphere is not polluted.
Drawing in prana is a means of sustaining life. Not many upon the planet
have the attainment to do this and the Masters do not advocate that
you pursue it in the present level of development on earth today. But that is how
the Masters take in light as well as adepts and avatars of the Great
White Brotherhood. They live on the energy of the Holy Spirit.
In the immaculate vision for each chakra, you will see the highest depiction
of what each chakra should be in its purified form in the etheric body.
Various New Age schools of thought as well as other teachings in the
past century have described their colors for the chakras. The Ascended
Masters have taught that the colors released from them are the purest colors
as they should appear in the purified etheric body, the highest vibrating
of the four lower bodies and the natural envelope of the soul. The discrepancy
in differing schools of thoughts could be attributed to the clairvoyants
seeing the unpurified state of the human consciousness.
On each individual chakra page (chakra links on left side panel) there
is a visualization and mantra to expand the light of the Mother within
each chakra. Each chakra page will have a meditation so
that you may do your healing with your God Self I AM. As the I AM stands
with you to lead the meditation he will contact the chakra in you and
will release the energies needed to balance and restore harmony in each
chakra. As you meditate, he may release the energy to the chakra for
the greatest amount of Light you may hold in your chakras.
These chakras, which are spiritual centers of Light, step down energies
or rays of God, as rings of fire around your Sun of Being I AM. Man
is also given four lower bodies, etheric, mental, emotional and physical,
to outpicture in the world of form God as Mother through the Son, or
Christ.
There are seven major chakras that align with the spinal column and
five minor chakras on the hands, feet and over the spleen area. There
are a total of a hundred and forty-four chakras, with the remaining
chakras lesser points for the release of light, associated with the
points of contact healing or acupuncture. These lesser points can be
contacted for a greater flow of energy in the body.
Each of your seven chakras is the focus of one of the seven rays that
represents a plane of heaven corresponding to the sphere of your Causal
Body of the same color and ray. Each energy center is to be a spinning
light center, integrating the four lower bodies with the three upper
bodies, the Holy Christ Self, I AM Presence and Causal bodies.
In order to master the flow of God’s energy through the seven
chakras, the mastery of the four elements—of fire, air, water,
and earth—as planes of God’s consciousness, ought to be
considered. By gaining the mastery of the four elements, one may then
gain the mastery of the flow of energy through the four lower bodies
as these bodies serve as coordinates for the establishment of the aura
of God around the soul.
The mark of the Christed one is the mark of attainment whereby the energies
of the chakras below the heart are uplifted and integrated with the
energies of the chakras above the heart. Those above the heart carry
the masculine polarity of being, and those below the heart carry the
feminine polarity. Depending on whether we are man or woman, we qualify
these chakras differently. By the time we get the blending of the
figure-eight pattern of Spirit and Matter right within our own body
consciousness, we find that often the man comes out very active in life
by earning the living and being the Father principle and we find that
the woman becomes passive. But what it really comes down to is that
if we are in the flow of the cosmic stream of energy, each time there
is a flow of energy, like the rising of the caduceus or the flow of
energy from the Great Central Sun, there is an exchange from active
to passive and we have actually changed identity.The four elements,
so-called, are merely word matrices used to define the planes of God’s
Self-awareness that the individual is capable of realizing through the
four lower bodies.
-
The etheric
body is the vehicle for the fire element and for man’s
realization of God’s awareness of himself as the sacred fire
through balancing and expanding the energies through the heart chakra
-
The mental body
is the vehicle for the air element and God’s awareness of
himself in the plane of the mind in and as the Logos. The mastery
in the mental body is through the third eye and the seat-of-the-soul
chakra. The frequency of this element is comparable to the wind
that “bloweth where it listeth” and to thinking and
be-ness whereby the soul affirms “I am,” as the expression
of self-identity, drawing the conclusion “therefore I think”—or
“I think, therefore I am.”
-
The emotional
body (sometimes called the desire body) is the mastery
of the emotions—of God’s awareness of himself as energy
in motion—through the water element. One has the opportunity
to expand and balance the energies of life and their flow in the
emotional body through the throat chakra and the solar plexus.
-
The physical
body is the vehicle for mastery in the physical plane in
the realm of time and space in Mater. One must gain the mastery
of the flow of physical energies in the base-of-the-spine and the
crown chakras.
Mankind must raise the energies of consciousness through his threefold
flame, locked in the secret chamber of the heart.
-
The pink plume - through
raising the energies to the level of the heart chakra through meditation
on love.
-
The yellow plume, through
the application of wisdom.
-
The blue plume, through
the garnering of God’s energy as the will to Be.
The purified colors match to the seven Rays of the Seven Elohim:
- Base-of-the-Spine Chakra
- White
- Seat-of-the-Soul - Violet
- Solar Plexus - Purple
with flecks of gold
- Heart Chakra - Pink
- Secret Chamber of the
Heart - Peach
- Throat Chakra - Blue
- Third Eye Chakra - Green
- Crown Chakra - Yellow
Misuse of the
Chakras
Immorality is, broadly speaking, the unlawful release, or qualification,
of God’s Light/Energy/Consciousness through any of the seven chakras.
Any act (including thoughts, feelings and motives) in which you are
wasting, squandering or compromising God’s Light/Energy/ Consciousness
at any level—conscious, subconscious or unconscious—can
be considered immoral.
This Light/Energy/Consciousness is the gift of your Divine Father and
Mother to you, bestowed through your Mighty I AM Presence and Holy Christ
Self. When the Light/Energy/Consciousness of our God is held in balance
in the seven chakras, in our soul and in our four lower bodies, we are
becoming the temple of Alpha and Omega. When God the Father and God
the Mother, nor the Son are acknowledged as the source of Light/Energy/Consciousness,
the chakras are not full of light.
That which remains
of the activity of the spiritual chakras is the transfer of the impulses
of life to the corresponding nerve and glandular systems conducting
the energies of life necessary for the cerebral, sensorial, motor, and
autonomic functions of the physical body.
The function of the chakras of individuals who give no personal adoration
to the personal God is at the level of the astral plane. Their chakras
are cesspools, taking in the entire gamut of the mass consciousness.
On a planetary scale, the misuse of the chakras in each of the four
lower bodies, is thus the source of pollution. These bodies take in
and give forth the poisoned substance which humankind have released
into the four elements of Mater as the by-product of their misuses of
the light of the Holy Spirit. Unless the devotee learn to seal his chakras,
he will suffer the same fate as the unenlightened. The Law is no respecter
of persons.
Mantras
The word mantra is related to manas (the mind). A mantra is a sound
or word. It is generally used to help focus the mind on a single thought
until thoughtless Beingness is established. As a tool to achieve stillness,
the mantra is to be discarded at the moment stillness is achieved.Yoga
means to unite with our origin. Mantra Yoga would then mean to unite
using the tool of mantra.
Mantras are sometimes also applied to change circumstances, to regain
a healthy condition for example. Those mantras are specially formulated
to carry a certain vibrational power, and when used as such, proper
pronunciation is important.
Creation occurred due to the first sound "Aum." The universe
and everything in it is condensed energy, that energy is vibrating and
all has sound. The body itself is sound, called sabda in Sanskrit. The
body can be recreated with sound as many modern technologies are now
tapping into. In the ancient Puranas (sacred story texts), there are
elaborate stories of the creation of the world, this is called Shristi
Karana. Shristi Karana, for it is the recreation of the body through
sabda (sound). Mantras can help balance our chakras, purify and manifest the Light through them.
Mantra
of Padmasambhava:
Om Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padma Siddhi Hum
Repeat as
often as you like.
Padmasambhava was a historical teacher, who is said to have finally
converted Tibet to Buddhism. He was a renowned scholar, meditator, and
magician, and his mantra suggests his rich and diverse nature.
Translated:
I invoke you, Vajra Guru, Padmasambhava, by your blessing may you grant
us ordinary and supreme realization.
Pronunciation notes:
a is pronounced as u in cut
m in hum is pronounced ng, as in long
j is hard, like j in judge
u is short, as in put
There are more mantras on
each individual chakra page and many more mantras like Padmasambhava's
that may be found in other religions, and not listed here, especially
found in Buddhism, Hinduism and in the Ascended Master's teachings from
prior dispensations, such as in the Summit Lighthouse.
Bija Mantras
Bija are associated with
the petals of each chakra. A bija mantra is a sacred syllable that makes
you vibrate at the chakra frequency, if you use the corresponding mantra.
Bija means seed. The Bija Mantras are the seed sounds of each lotus
pedal of the chakras which when whispered, spoken, or chanted can activate
elemental energies for balancing life energy. They can be used to activate
and balance the five elements for healing.
In their most essential or archetypal form the images are known as yantras
(specific geometric shapes) and the sounds are known as mantras.
The effect of sounds is dependent on their pitch, rhythm and syllabic
structure. The results of stimulation of a centre may be on the level
of evoking a feeling, an image (a scene or shape), a sound may be heard,
or there may be a manifestation of a situation in life connected with
that chakra.
The Effect of Sound on the Chakras
The chakras are subtle centers
of transformation located within the cerebrospinal system. According
to Hindu tradition, all fifty sounds of the Sanskrit language exist
within the chakras of the human body. When we speak, we do so not only
through the vocal cords and throat, but also through the articulation
of the chakras.
Good and bad music directly and profoundly affects the body's seven
major energy centers. The chakras are the playground of the elements.
They are interrelated with the parasympathetic, sympathetic, and autonomous
nervous systems, and thus the gross body is related to them.
The particular sounds given for chakra meditation are those that energize
each of the psychic centers respectively. One begins by chanting the
"Petal" sounds of the chakras - those sounds that energize
the ganglia of this chakra plexus. The petal sounds are followed by
the bija, or essential "seed" sound of the chakra. This same
sequence is then repeated for chakras two, three, four, five, and six.
It is recommended that chanting of the sounds of the chakras should
be practiced in a comfortable posture, preferably seated on a mat or
rug of organic material, with a lighted candle or oil lamp in the room.
