Chakra & Kundalini chakra books

Chakras

During the ancient times of tantra, our human body was viewed as the perfect instrument for expressing the consciousness. This perfection of the human body was realized with the help of our psychic centres or the chakras. The Chakras are located in our cerebrospinal system. These chakras are stages on which the interaction between the higher consciousness and the desire takes place. It is believed that when we use these energies of the chakras properly, we tend to reach an enlightened state of mind.

These chakras of our body control certain organs of our body which in turn controls our expression, senses, feelings and this includes our sixth sense as well.  Because of the different experiences and challenges that come across in our lives, we tend to start harnessing negative energies in our body. These negative energies lead to blockage of the chakras. When the chakras are blocked, the energy flow gets affected thereby leading to emotional and physical ailments.

We have to then start working with the chakras to ward off the negative energies and start the flow of positive energy inside our bodies to unblock the chakras and to ease up our life. Every major chakra is linked to the endocrine gland of our body. Each chakra is ruled by specific planet and God or deity.  In astrology, every planet is related to the chakras of our body.

Here are the different chakras of our body and the corresponding endocrine glands:

  • Muladhara Chakra (root): The adrenal medulla (above our kidneys)
  • Swasthisthana (Sacral): the sexual organs
  • Manipura (Solar Plexus): Pancreas
  • Anahata (heart): Thymus
  • Vishuddha (throat): Thyroid
  • Ajna (third eye): Hypothalamus
  • Sahasrara (crown): Pituitary gland

The Kundalini helps in maintaining the wellness and balance of our body by providing us with effective tools in order to remove the blockages from our chakra system.

Thus the Chakras and the kundalini work hand-in-hand to take us on a powerful journey towards healing.

Relation Between Ganesha & Kartikeya

Lord Ganesha Lord kartikeya

 

There are many stories revolving around Ganesha and his younger brother Kartikeya in Hindu mythology. While Lord Ganesha is worshipped throughout India, Kartikeya has more influence towards South India. In south, Karthikeya is also known as Murugan, Subramanya and Arumugam. Lord Ganesha and Kartikeya are two contrasting personalities in mythology.  It is quite interesting to know the differences that exist between the two siblings.

While Lord Ganesha is known to be comfortably plump, kind and patient, brother Karthikeya is full of energy and impulsive. While Ganesha prefers his mouse as his vehicle, Karthikeya prefers a flashy peacock as his vehicle. In fact, even the conversations and the interactions between the two are child-like and quite interesting. There is one legend that is distinct and worth a mention.

Once, a mango that was believed to be filled with divine knowledge was brought to Mount Kailash. The mango couldn’t be cut or shared. There was just one mango and both Ganesha and Karthikeya wished to have it. In order to get rid of this dilemma, Lord Shiva and Parvati decided to have a competition.

It was decided that the one who completes three rounds of the planet will win the mango. On hearing this, Kartikeya immediately left on his journey. But Ganeshas at there and was thinking as this was an impossible task for him.

Within sometime, Ganesha found an answer. He made Shiva and Parvati sit together and then worshipped them and circled them thrice. Later, he said that according to the Vedas circling parents is same as circling the world.

Lord Shiva and Parvati were impressed and convinced with his logic and handed over the mango to him. Meanwhile, Karthikeya returned and was furious to know about this. In a fit of anger, Kartikeya left for Mount Krouncha, also known as Palani and it is believed that Shiva goes to visit on new moon (amavasya) and Parvati goes to visit him on full moon day (purnima).

However, this never hampered the relation between Ganesha and Karthikeya. They were cordial yet again. Till date, Ganesha and Karthikeya are considered as the epitome of sibling relation.

History of Gemstones

The history of gemstones dates back to around 5000 years ago. These coloured bits of rock have always fascinated people from different centuries and from different parts of the world. Right from the kings of India to the Incas of South America, these beautiful glittering rocks have adorned many jewellery pieces. Gemstones have captivated our imagination in the past and continue to do so even now. Let us now go behind in history and find out more about these gemstones.

Have you ever given a thought on what makes these small little pieces of rocks grab so much of attention and how were gemstones formed? Gemstones are nothing but crystallized minerals. They are known for their beauty and powers. Gemstones are a rare combination of durability and royalty. As per the Karma Purana, gemstones are believed to be evolved out of the seven distinct rays also known as VIBGYOR that is reflected by the nine planets in our Solar System.

The Purana states that these seven distinct coloured rays represent energies, and form the base of the cosmos which includes humans.

In 529 AD, Emperor Justinian of the Eastern Roman Empire had passed a law in order to regulate the usage of jewellery and how it has to be worn.

This law was known as the Justinian Code. The rules stated that the rubies, sapphires and emeralds along with other gemstones had to be reserved only for the use by the royals. There was just one concession for every free man. The common man was allowed to wear just a gold ring and nothing more than that!

In Aragon, such laws were passedin early 1234 and were followed by the French in 1283. The English King Edward III decided to follow this law later in the year of 1363. According to the law, the commoners were prohibited from wearing certain types of gemstone set jewellery. In some cases, certain wealth slabs were created and mentioned in the law under which one was allowed to wear gold jewellery sets with gemstones or precious stones. However, with time, beliefs changed and laws changed. Now, even the commoners own a gemstone to bring a difference in their lives.
