Chakras Introduction

An introduction to our energetic body

“Every human being has “divinity” that is the same essence as the source of the cosmos. Our bodies act as temporary bodies for the journey of our souls. We came to Earth in order to go forward and complete the journey of our soul. Although our physical bodies have their limitations they also contain the necessary tools to propel our souls toward completion of the journey. The difficulties and trials that come with the human body are actually blessings, propelling our soul’s expansive growth.”

– Ilchi Lee, Healing Chakras

We have all been suffering at one point or another, and most of us hold on to the memory of our past wound in our body. These wounds are engraved in our emotional body and cause us to relive the traumas throughout life if the wounds are not healed properly. If our past wounds keep presenting themselves in different forms throughout life, that is a good indicator that the root cause for the wounds has not been healed. If you want a new experience for yourself, let go and release the pain lessons you’ve already got.

The energy from the emotions that resides within us can physically manifest itself if we do not heal it. The body is therefore our most vital teacher and compass if we wish to understand our inner life. Sometimes pain is important to put us bound for progress. The body communicates its need all the time. If you wish to balance your life, you must develop the skill to listen to your body.

We as an individual are well acquainted with our own emotional and physical body, we have felt it and thought about it since birth. Even though we do not yet fully understand the complexity of our own sensible being, we might want to take in consideration that there is yet another layer of our being that needs careful gardening if we as a whole wishes to experience a more profound and balanced outlook on our self and life.

If we listen to what the teachings from different cultures such as the Indian yogi system, Tibetans, the Mayans and the Zoroastrian they would have told us that the body are more than a physical and emotional state of being. Emotion is energy, and we have an energetic body- or a light body that consist of various energy fields.

In the following article we invite you to take a deeper look on what these teachings can tell us about our self.

In Yogic tradition it is commonly believed that we have 7 bigger chakras and 21 smaller chakras throughout the body, and every energy field is responsible for their own experience or information input. There are also 72 000 smaller and more subtle energy fields within our body. These energetic channels are called nadis and meridians. The nadis and meridians are responsible for the transportation and flow of prana, or lifeforce energy.

In the perspective of physics, all matter is frozen light. We are light body, and everything we eat is light vibrating at a certain speed. Even though we perceive our self as solid, we are actually energy. We know that matter and energy are different side of the same coin. Does it make sense to you that your physical body are energetically communicating with the world within and around you? If so, let’s have a deeper look at your energetic centers or vortexes called chakras.
