"The
human organism, its functioning, and the condition of
its subtle bodies depends on the chakras' work, or
spinning. When the chakras are spinning effectively,
they bring balanced functioning to the organism, a
free-flowing of energies, and harmony between
consciousness and subconsciousness and between inner and
outer worlds as well.
Chakras show patterns of electromagnetic activity.
When all chakras work properly (spinning not too slow or
too fast), a physical organism is in perfect health and
powerful energetic shape. When the chakra is opened and
functional, it can perform its work perfectly, process
prana energy, bring energy to the physical organs and
subtle bodies, and remove used stale or stagnant energy
from the system.
When the chakra is closed or blocked, it stops
spinning and becomes dysfunctional. Chakras may become
closed when they are congested with stale or stagnant
energy. One way they can close is during an instance of
fight-or-flight response of the organism. This response
is a natural way for the organism to become alert and
prepared to any danger or unusual situation. However, if
this stressful condition of the body is left
uncontrolled and continues for a long time, the chakras
may stay closed and dysfunctional. When the physical
body stays in prolonged stress (distress) or depression,
the chakras cannot spin and work properly; they become
unbalanced, blocked with stale and stagnant energy and
unbalanced.
Our thoughts and attitudes can block energy flowing
through the chakras as well. Unexpressed emotions can
cause the chakras to be overcharged, leading to their
closing or blockage. Personality problems both cause and
are caused by energy imbalances. Imbalances in the
chakra system of the physical body reveal themselves
through both negative personality and physical illness:
dysfunctional chakras cause imbalances in the subtle
energetic bodies, and imbalances in the subtle bodies
then manifest in personal, psychological and emotional
problems.
When chakras are closed, energy cannot be transformed
and released to the physical body. If energy is not
flowing freely through energetic systems, physical
problems may develop in specific areas, and discomfort
or illness can occur in the organism. When a chakra is
blocked, it needs healing by uncovering and removing
whatever is blocking it. The clearing of congested
energy from the human energy system becomes a necessary
prophylactic way for keeping the organism healthy.
Because the chakras work together as a system, a
block in the functioning of one chakra may affect the
activity of another. These chakras are especially
inter-related: (a) the root chakra and the third eye
tie, (b) the sacral chakra and throat chakra, and (c)
the solar plexus chakra and heart chakra. If one chakra
is not functioning, it must be cleansed, balanced,
normalized, and healed together with the associate
chakra accordingly.
Chakras are interrelated not only with
parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomous nervous
systems, but endocrine systems as well. Chakras
transform vital energy to the endocrine glands. The root
chakra (Muladhara) correlates to the testicles, the
sacral chakra (Svadhisthana) - the ovaries, the solar
plexus chakra (Manipura) - the adrenals and pancreas,
the heart chakra (Anahata) - the thymus, the throat
chakra (Vishuddha) - the thyroid and parathyroid, the
third eye chakra (Ajna) - the pineal gland, and the
crown chakra (Sahasrara) - the pituitary (master) gland.
Chakras feed the life-force into our endocrine systems,
which regulates our hormonal balance.
During our many years as healers, we have observed
that healthy chakras spin in a clockwise direction and
in the same way in both sexes, whereas closed,
unbalanced chakras spin in a counterclockwise direction,
stay still, spin in eclipses or move unevenly. The
energy balance of the bio-energy system, which is very
important to our general well-being and health, can be
achieved by energy that is in a constant smooth flow,
refreshed and vitalized, aided by constantly spinning
chakras..."
