The word "chakra" means spinning disk or wheel and each chakra is a whirling
vortex of spinning energies that are made up of billions of particles of energy
that resonate and vibrate at the same speed or level of vibration on a
comparative frequency, therefore they cluster together to produce a spiritual
chakra energy centre. The frequencies of each chakra varies from one chakra to
the next, as do the associated colours. Each chakra is capable of heightening or
lowering its frequency by speeding up or slowing down, which changes the
vibration at which it resonates energies. The chakra can spin in different
directions from one to the next. There are seven main chakra, plus hundreds of
secondary chakras and thousands of mini chakras called "nadis", the chakra can
be disc shaped or viewed from the side they can look like a trumpet.
The chakras can work independently of each other or together and are
connected through a series of astral and etheric tubes and canals that allow
energies to pass from one to another, also the chakra rotate in different
directions, those in the upper body are thought to rotate in a clockwise
direction, whilst those in the lower body in a anti-clockwise direction, however
the chakra can be reversed by will power to move in the opposite direction, this
is what helps us to find different attunements by blending the energies of
different chakras together until the appropriate attunement is found for
whatever work we maybe doing.

Also seen
in this diagram are the chakras that are present in the hands. The Chakra can be
put to a variety of uses in spiritual work, such as, development, healing,
meditation, psychism, clairvoyants, sensing etc. One of the main functions of
the chakras is to generate and supply the spirits life forces and daily energy
requirements. Spirit in itself is life and the energy of spirit is self-generating,
therefore the power we generate and require each day to survive as spirit is
inexhaustible. Also the chakra can be developed to open more fully and used to
sense through the latent gifts of the spirit, such as the psychic and clairvoyant
abilities.
A good example of the chakras abilities to change direction is through the
spirits abilities to change polarities or magnetic influences, when dowsing
using a pendulum, where questions can be asked and the pendulum is able to
give an answer such as "Yes" "No" "Possibly" and "Don't Know", for instance
the pendulum might swing clockwise for "yes" anti-clockwise for "No"
backward and forwards for "Possibly" and side to side for "Don't Know. This
demonstrates the chakras abilities to change from positive to negative, as well
as being able to give mixed answers. So it is possible that the corresponding
chakras change direction completely to give the opposite answers as well as
being able to give mixed answers.
This might indicate that several chakra are operating at once and involved
spinning in different directions by self regulation to produce the different
answers one might get. However it is also possible that one or more chakras
might be spinning in two different directions at the same time, i.e. the inner
chakra spinning in one direction, while the outer part of the chakra is spinning
in the opposite direction. The chakra also produce the aura and each chakra has
a correlating layer in the subtle aura bodies or energy fields that surround all
living things.
In India tradition Kundalini is
taught, which means coiled
serpent, and refers to the energy
at the base chakra, which can
under certain conditions of
attunement be made to rise like a
bolt of invigorating force up the
spine to the head, through rising
up the Sushuma (the middle of
the three main subtle energy
channels along the spine - the
others are the Ida and Pingala).
This awakening is often associated with prickly sensations on the skin or feelings of hot and cold. Yoga students are sometimes a little wary of the unpleasant side effects if the mind is not cleansed of impurities.
This is something that can also be experienced in a different manner through
mind over matter and it begins as a spirit experience that entails the quickening
of the spirits chakra, where the main solar-plexus chakra opens firstly and
triggers all the surrounding chakra to open in a cascading effect slowly moving
up to the head and down to the feet at the same time, until all the chakra are
fully opened throughout the etheric body. The individual feels full of energy
and somewhat like a Christmas tree has been illuminated inside their spirit,
accompanied by feelings of floating and euphoric energies are experienced,
along with the realisation that the spiritual self within has awakened and taken
control, this experience may last up to 10 minutes before all the chakras slowly
close back to what is normal.
In China these life force energies maybe called the chi energies which are
found through attunement to the self or when the physical mind and body finds
attunement to the spirit the true self within each of us is revealed and takes
control. This is not easily found but one of the ways it is most commonly
found, is in mind over matter events, such as a life saving event where
supernatural strength and abilities can be found, this is when the mind has no
doubts in its own abilities and does not restrict us as the physical mind and
body do, therefore there is not doubt in the self and mind over matter evens that
can be quite amazing can take place.
Other ways in which this can be found is through concentration while doing a
difficult tasks, one way is in dancing, other people that sometimes have this
experience are racing drivers and fighter pilots, due to the skill and
concentration when they are giving their task 100% of their concentration and
using all their skills and abilities in what is often dangerous and on the edge
situation. The Japanese Samurai and martial artists experts say let the self be
your guide, this is again where the physical mind and body finds the tempo and
oneness with the spirit the true spiritual self within. Some monks in the east
have been known to find this attunement of mind body and spirit where they lift
out of their body's and rise up to a higher plane in astral projection, but these
experiences are hard to gain and we have to be worthy of them and mostly they
only last no more than 10 to 15 minutes at first.
