Dhyana - The Meditation on Chakras
Sri Amma Bhagavan -
Chakra Dhyana
Chakras are energy centres in the pranic body or
the energy body. The human organism comprises not merely the gross physical
body but several other sheaths like mind, karma, wisdom and bliss. These
sheaths are what are referred to as koshas by the Indian seers. Among these
sheaths is the sheath of prana or energy which comprises of the various
chakras, nadis (energy channels). The latent spiritual energy known as
Kundalini flows through these chakras and nadis, thereby making them
vibrant. The flow of energy in this sheath affects all the other sheaths
thereby resulting in a healthy body and mind, the result of which is bliss
and peace.
These chakras and nadis get defiled due to wrong lifestiles and eating
habits and also due to the bnrdenof erroneous perceptions and negative
karma. This disturbance affects an individual physically, mentally,
emotionally and spiritually. Negative thought patterns create negative
situations in life. So,Chakra Dhyana is not merely a sadhana to activate the
subtle dimension but it also assists in creating a healthier mind which is
imperative for a happy and healthy life.
Chakra Dhyana has three steps to it i.e. concentrating on the mystical
diagrams of the chakras (Yantra), uttering of mystical syllables to activate
the chakras (Mantra) and the right seating posture (Asana). The mudra
(placement) of the fingers is also important. The ideal mudra is to touch
the base line of the thumb with the index finger and the ideal asana is
Siddhasan. Seating onself comfortably in Siddhasan and placing the fingers
in the above mentioned mudra with palms facing skywards near the knees, one
has to visualize the respective chakras with closed eyes and utter the bija
mantra of that chakra. This chanting can be done for seven or nine times or
eighteen times. Daily practice of Chakra Dhyana this way will help activate
the chakras. The activation of these chakras also has a physical counterpart
i.e. various regions in the brain are stimulated leading to a more holistic
view towards life. The Kundalini energy awakens and flows through these
chakras energising the whole pranic body which directly energises the
physical body.
