Celestial Chakras

Take some time study this image to the left.  Notice where the chakras are, and also notice the colors associated with them, these colors where not decided upon randomly, but they were associated by meditation masters and the great yogis of the Hindu and Buddhist schools.  I want you to use these colors in your own meditations as they are universally recognized, I believe this will speed you along on your path.

For this meditation we will focus upon the root chakra, the Muladhara chakra.  To begin let’s find a quiet room, if there are distracting noises then perhaps put on some soft music that is meant for yoga, meditation or reiki.  Start with your intention, specifically your ‘attention’.  Focus your thoughts first upon the room in which you sit or lay, bring your presence into this room now. You are not just a body occupying this space, but rather you are an energy being which pervades the entire room, wall to wall, floor to ceiling.  Pull your being into this space and relax into it for as long as you need, until you are grounded to it.  Once you feel grounded I want you to move closer to your body, bring in your thoughts and focus them on your flesh.  See it as perhaps you have never before, see it as the sustaining vessel for your consciousness.  See it as a regal estate with a beautiful house, within which your mind resides.

Journey now down a path from this magnificent main house to a shaded area which is nestled amongst great trees at the edge of the estate.  There is a large seat waiting for you.  This seat is sure and strong, the legs are made of rough-hew wood tied together with leather strips, but the seat and back have been sanded smooth, they are cool to your touch.

Sit now.  Rest on your chair, and in your mind close your eyes again.  With your meditative mind feel your energy body which sits upon this seat.  Allow the color of this chakra to fill your mind as you focus your whole attention at the base of your spine.  Feel your body pressing down against the seat, feel the seat holding you up, working against and with gravity to keep you in that space.

Give yourself enough time to completely inhabit this place within your body.  You can slowly enfold your being, all that you are, into this tiny space.  Realize that this space, like all space, is relative and pliable.  It can contain all of creation within this finite area.  Now feel the pulsation of energy that arises within you, the energy of the earth that is accepted and utilized from this very chakra.  It is given freely from the earth, given to you so that you may be grounded and close to the energy that sustains all life on earth.  The rains, wind, lightning, thunder, the grasses, trees, myriad plants and animals are all connected to you through this energy.  Feel them within you.  Feel those aspects of this earth energy flow across your body.

Sit within this energy and allow it to fuel you.  For now, in this moment, this is all you need.

Focus on your breath.  Follow the in breath down to the base of your spine, where the Muladhara Chakra resides.  On the exhalation I want you to feel the energy move throughout your whole body.  Awaken this power within you, it has always been there, stirring below the surface, waiting to be acknowledged and used.

Be in this place until you feel your consciousness begin to re-enter the world.  Know that you can return to this place at any time.  Be refreshed and well.

Namaste,

Matt

Watch it, then offer your thoughts please.

Amazing. The whole is contained within the part. All parts are reflections of all other parts. If we think about this for a moment you can see that each part can also offer you information on all other parts. Each strand of energy ‘knows’ about all other parts.

Close your eyes and simply ‘know’ where your loved ones are. You can do this, trust me. Listen to your heart chakra and find them. Where are they? Concentrate on someone, your mom, your best friend, your child, anyone; just concentrate and think about them.

I would not be surprised if they are thinking about you now too.

Love ya,

Matt

Now move your concentration into your right hand. Notice it. Give your right hand your full and utmost attention, maybe for the first time ever.

What do you notice? How does this feel? Is it strange and foreign?

Your hand is a part of you, it is you, but it is not where your brain is housed, not where your mind lives. But you were just in it. With a wholeness that you may have never known before your hand was all that there was of the essence of you.

Feel the energy of the universe moving inside of your body, through it, over it, with it. From your root chakra to the crown chakra, you are alive with boundless energy, knowledge, love and compassion.

Do this exercise with your extremities, and then once you have felt your being move into new parts of your body, do this same exercise but this time place your intention, concentration and attention outside of your body. Your mind is limitless and eternal.

Know this.

“Before the beginning all was nothing-only the spark of Divine consciousness. From this spark, all of creation arose…spinning out from the center…spinning into time…spinning into being…spinning into wheels of life.” – From the DVD
