Let's hear Guruji - Chakra Meditation (Series 3)

Chakra Meditation

Chakra Meditation

Pranams to all. Hope your sadhana is flowing like a river & marching ahead to meet the ocean of pure bliss. Swami Rama Says, “Sadhana is very important. All sadhanas, all practices, are meant to purify and strengthen the mind that disturbs your being and prevents you from being aware of the Reality that is within you”. So let us remember the Master’s and continue our practice without having any hesitation or doubt.

In our humble effort in analyzing our Guruji Shri Pattabhiram’s DVD program, today we will look upon “Chakra Meditation” DVD today. This is single DVD which we are going to look upon. The same title is also available in 3 DVD tittle also.

Understanding Chakras

Guruji starts the session with a very vital question; what is important in life? Friends, let us close our eyes for a minute and try to answer this question. Please close your eyes and think for a while, what is important in life which is going to give that eternal peace & satisfaction that each one of us are longing for.  If you have sincerely asked this question to yourself, please move on read what Guruji has to say and whether it matches with your answer.

Guruji explains, what is important in life is the 'connectivity with the Universal Self'. To connect with that Universal Self which is very sacred eternal and ever shining with all radiance brilliance and full of bliss compassion and love, one has to do Chakra Meditation.

Connectivity with the Universal Self

Then Guruji goes on to explain what that universal self is & how to understand that universal self. During Meditation when you go very deep within, you realize there is one untouched enthusiasm which is shining in all its sacred beauty. There is some energy which is constantly being connected between you and that Universal Self. Every second there is a beautiful communication between these two through a bridge. Chakra Meditation helps in to touch, feel, experience that sacred center which is there in all of us.

Then Guruji moves on in explaining 3 bodies that every human being is blessed with. They are:

- Sthula Sarira (Gross body),
- Sukshma Sarira (subtle body) and

- Karana Sarira (Causal Body).

Do your Sadhana sincerely

Guruji here mentions that a sadhaka has to constantly work on the Sukshma Sarira taking the support of Sthula Sarira. To study Sukshma Sarira, we need to make the Sthula Sarira, healthy, still & comfortable. 

Sthula sarira is in between the Mooladhara chakra and the Sahasrara Chakra. There is a pillar of light in this passage & the light is traveling up and down shining eternally. This beautiful inner passage is blessed with very powerful universal centers. Each chakra that is working here is correspondingly relating with the cosmic energy field. So the entire universe, the design of the cosmos, all the energy centers are placed in the Sukshma Sarira.

Shri Pattabhiram explaining the importance of Chakra

Then Guruji goes on to explain; what is Chakra, what are the importance of these chakras and why one has to be aware of them. It’s a beautiful knowledge that Guruji has shared with us in a language that we can easily understand with.

What is a Chakra? A chakra is nothing but an energy wheel. Guruji says, each chakra that is there along the spinal column, i.e. the meru marga, if studied properly from the Mooladhara chakra to Sahasrara chakra, then one can start studying the entire universe.

These chakras are connected with 72000 channels that are called as Nadi’s, they are the energy conveyers and they are carrying the energy.  So the chakra meditation is nothing but a process where we free ourselves from all our Karma (Action) Samskara (Impression) & Vasanas (effect of Karma) & energy field that are bugging us.

Now Guruji answers to a very important perennial question, how Karma Samskara Vasanas are developed into the systems.

To answer this, Guruji first goes on to explain beautifully about the four urges that each one of us primarily have and the connecting channels which are developed due to these urges and how each one of these are connected with the Chakra and its effects.

Guruji explaining four urges

The Four urges that every Jeeva (soul) have are:

1. Ahara, (food)
2. Nidra, (sleep)
3. Bhaya (fear) and
4. Maithuna (reproduction)

Due to ignorance, Jeeva develops six channels through these 4 urges and they are:

1. Kama (lust),
2. Krodha (anger),
3. Lobha (greed),
4. Moha (emotional attachment),
5. Mada (pride) &
6. Matsarya (jealousy).

Guruji then takes us to each one of these channels. First channel that is developed is Kama, i.e. desire. When the Kama is not fulfilled the same Kama, the desire gets converted into another energy form called Krodha. i.e. anger or frustration.

If 'Kama' is fulfilled, then the 'Kama' takes us to the promoted level i.e. 'Lobha'. In the beginning, it is a simple desire, and then this desire gets into 'Lobha', the greed. The need goes away, the greed enters.

Wherever there is greed, this creates another channel, a negative destructive channel i.e. 'Mogha'.  'Mogha' means attachment.

Guruji explaining Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada & Matsarya

When ‘Lobha’ reaches some height, then it introduce another element called the 'Madha'. 'Madha' means Ego.

Where this kind of ego, arrogance is there, it strengthens another channel called 'Matsara', means Jealousy.

These six, when they starts expressing themselves with the external world,  it brings Karma, Samskara & Vasanas into the system.

Now Guruji takes us to each Chakra i.e. Mooladhara (the root chakra), Swadhisthana (the Sacral chakra), Manipura (the solar plexus chakra), Anahata (the heart chakra), Vishuddhi (the throat chakra), Ajna (the brow chakra) & Sahasrara (the crown chakra),explaining where they are  located, what each Chakra is colored & dusted with that needs to be removed so that one can touch, feel, experience that sacred center which is there in all of us and create connectivity with the Universal Self.  This is a very important session in this DVD, which gives lot of insight about each chakras that are present in us and how one should approach them.

Guruji explaining how each chakra is dusted with

Chakra meditation is a beautiful wonderful journey. Chakra Meditation is a Journey from our survival instinct, from our sexual Bhoga, from our Indriya Bhoga to that divine romance. Guruji then goes on to explain what needs to be done to take up this journey. Guruji suggests working at two levels. First level is the 24 hours Sadhana that one has to undertake. Guruji understands what would be our immediate reaction once He asks us to do 24 hours Sadhana. How can we do 24 hours sadhana as we have so many tasks to do in the material outside world? Find out from the DVD, what is that 24 hours Sadhana that Guruji is asking us to perform. It is so simple & effective for sure.

Second level that Guruji is suggesting us is to do is one hour Sadhana which is explained in this DVD under Meditation chapter.

Guruji explaining why Chakra Meditation is important

Guruji again explains why Chakra Meditation is very important for all us. We have to do chakra meditation for two objectives, viz.  Chitha Sodhanam & Mukthi Sadhanam. Find out from this DVD, what is this Chitha Sodhanam & Mukthi Sadhanam.

Guruji also warns aspirants from awakening our inner centers & chakras without any purification & preparation. Guruji clarifies that if we don’t purify them, in that poisonous state of mind, if that energy is awakened in us, the very divine energy is going to be a monstrous energy & would destroy our inner infrastructure completely.

Preparing for Meditation

Every Guru tells the disciple, “Bete you prepare first, the rest you leave it to me” because Guru cannot prepare on behalf of the Sadhaka. It is the responsibility of a Sadhaka to prepare himself. Guruji explains the preparation that is required for this Chakra Meditation. He gives lot of importance to “Sankalpa”.

Bete, you prepare first, the rest leave it to the Guru

Guruji also explains why we are not able to experience the fruits of our sadhana. This is another important section of this DVD which clearly guides an able aspirant for who wants to take up the spiritual journey.

Meditation

Listen, Experience & merge with the inner light by listening to Guruji’s 45 minutes Chakra Meditation Session. Here Guruji systematically takes the aspirants to basics of Chakra Meditation, how to channelize our breathing, how to energize our Chakras and how to connect with that Inner light and make the connectivity with the Universal Self.

To purify one's own Self, one has to work hard

As we come to the conclusion, let us remember that the Chakra Dhyana is a silent evolution. There is nothing to show to external world. We have become bonded labor as our attitude, thinking, emotion, anxiety are guiding and dictating us. We need to free ourselves from these entanglements.

As Guruji suggests, “To purify one’s own Self, one has to work hard, if we don’t have that in us, please forget about the Sadhana and enjoy your usual mundane life. But once you have taken the spiritual journey, be little bit serious and pursue your Sadhana sincerely”.

Swami Rama too emphasizes the importance of Sadhana in a spiritual seeker’s life. He says:

“It is amazing to observe that most of the people enveloped in sloth and lethargy are not aware that life on this earth is but a brief moment, and that moment should be utilized to purify the way of the soul. Those who do not do their duties and yet expect the best in life are fools who live in a fool’s paradise.”

So friends, Let us sincerely do our Sadhana in search of our Inner light. Remember the very Inner light is the Guru; let us offer humble salutations to the Guru, the light, guiding every soul in the universe. With Humble pranams, see you soon, till then, let’s hear Guruji…

Let us offer humble salutations to the Guru
