Kundali Awakening-The awakening of Chakras

Here in this article I will explain you Kundalini awakening also known as Chakra Awakening. Human body contains many secrets those are not yet solved or even discovered by scientist. But the ancient sages discovered all those and the body chakras are one of them.

What are Chakras

Chakras are the vital parts of body and have their own different properties. There are seven chakras in human body naming.

1. The crown chakra (Sahasrara)
2. The brow chakra (Ajna)
3. The throat chakra (Vishuddha)
4. The heart Chakra (Anahata)
5. The solar plexus chakra (Manipura)
7. The sacral chakra (Swadhisthana)
8. The root chakra (Muladhara)

What is Kundalani

Kundalani is small energy thread in binded form like a snake near root chakra in our body and this state is called the sleeping stage of kundalini but through proper practices the kundalini awakes and rise above the body passing through different chakras of body. This stage is called kundalani awakening and the person recieves many physical and spiritual powers and finally gets enlightment.

Steps of Kundalani or chakra awakening

Chakra awakening is same as climbing on a building through stairs. The following are the eight steps chakra awakening.

1. Yama – code of conduct
2. Niyama – religious observances, commitments to practice, such as study and devotion
3. Āsana – to integrate mind and body through physical activity
4. Pranayama – control on breath
5. Pratyahara – widrawal of senses from the material world.
6. Dharana – concentrating the mind on self

Mantra from vedas--Motion of Planets (Rigveda10.149.1 and Rigveda 8.12.28)

There are several mantras in vedas that describes the motion of Sun, earth, moon and other planets. I will give you some info about them. Here is a mantra from Rigveda that explains the gravitational attraction between planets and the sun

Verse---Savita Yantraih Prithiveem Aramnaat Dyaam Andahat Atoorte Baddham Ashwam Iv Adhukshat (10.149.1)

“The sun has tied Earth and other planets through attraction and moves them around itself as if a trainer moves newly trained horses around itself holding their reins.”-- Rigveda10.149.1

Word to word translation
Savita = Sun
Yantraih = through reins
Prithiveem = Earth
Aramnaat = Ties
Dyaam Andahat = Other planets in sky as well
Atoorte = Unbreakable
Baddham = Holds
Ashwam Iv Adhukshat = Like horses

Very clearly, the mantra explains that sun is center of solar system and planets (including earth) move in a closed-loop path around it.
The second one Rigveda 8.12.28 describes the motion of planet

Verse--Yada Te Haryataa Hari Vaavridhate Divedive Vishwa Bhuvani Aditte Yemire—(Rigveda 8.12.28)

Meaning--“All planets remain stable because as they come closer to sun due to attraction, their speed of coming closer increases proportionately.”

Word to word translation
Yada Te = When they
Haryataa = Come closer through attraction
Hari = Closeness
Vaavridhate = Increases proportionately
Divedive = continuously
Vishwa Bhuvani = planets of the world
Aditte = eventually
Yemire = remain stable
(The reference to sun comes from rest of the Mantras in this Sukta before and after this mantra)

The mantra clearly states that:
1. Motion of planets around sun is not circular, even though sun is the central force causing planets to move (Refer previous mantra 10.149.1)
2. Motion of planets is such that the Velocity of planets follows inverse relation with the distance between planet and sun.

Later we will see the motion of planets and other astronomical facts such as ecllipse etc in the vedas. Till than have a good time.

Swami Vivekanand: Why we disagree

In Sept 1893 Swami Vivekanand went to world parliament of religion, on the second day of parliament he was asked in stage to deliever something on “why we disagree”.Now here is the reply in his words I will tell you a little story. You have heard the eloquent speaker who has just finished say, “Let us cease from abusing each other,” and he was very sorry that there should be always so much variance. But I think I should tell you a story which would illustrate the cause of this variance. A frog lived in a well. It had lived there for a long time. It was born there and brought up there, and yet was a little, small frog. Of course the evolutionists were not there then to tell us whether the frog lost its eyes or not, but, for our story’s sake, we must take it for granted that it had its eyes, and that it every day cleansed the water of all the worms and bacilli that lived in it with an energy that would do credit to our modern bacteriologists. In this way it went on and became a little sleek and fat. Well, one day another frog that lived in the sea came and fell into the well. “Where are you from?” “I am from the sea.” “The sea! How big is that? Is it as big as my well?” and he took a leap from one side of the well to the other. “My friend,” said the frog of the sea, “how do you compare the sea with your little well?” Then the frog took another leap and asked, “Is your sea so big?” “What nonsense you speak, to compare the sea with your well!” “Well, then,” said the frog of the well, “nothing can be bigger than my well; there can be nothing bigger than this; this fellow is a liar, so turn him out.” That has been the difficulty all the while. I am a Hindu. I am sitting in my own little well and thinking that the whole world is my little well. The Christian sits in his little well and thinks the whole world is his well. The Mohammedan sits in his little well and thinks that is the whole world. have to thank you of America for the great attempt you are making to break down the barriers of this little world of ours, and hope that, in the future, the Lord will help you to accomplish your purpose.

Message

So this was the story but did you understand the core message of Swami Vivekanad? The message was simple but strong and takes the world towards universal brotherhood. The knowledge is infinite and we should be always ready to take the knowledge, no matter from where it comes and on other hand should give up whatever seems to be false. The situation of many people today is same as that frog of well. We are not ready to accept the truth due to our ego or any other reason. We are sitting in our own little well and thinks that the world is our well. Knowledge is always better than ignorance so we should come out from the well of ignorance and search for the ocean of knowledge.

Perform Your Duties

“There was never a time when I you or these people do not exist.
Wise do not grieve for living or dead”


This verse is taken from holy Gita. In the battlefield Arjuna looking his uncles, grandfathers, brothers, nephews against him in battlefield he was grieved and decided not to fight and simply surrender to them.

Than Krishna said to Arjuna-
O Arjuna you are a warrior and your duty is to fight against the false. You cannot run from your respective duties.

Arjuna said to Krishna that how can he fight against his own teacher and family member, he will not do this terrible act even if he gets three worlds.

Than Krishna said- “There was never a time when I, you or these people do not exist nor we will cease to exist in future.”

Meaning here is that one should always perform his duties and this time he was in battlefield and hence his duty was to fight against evil even the people against him in battlefield was his family or his teachers.

You are soul and not the body and because soul just changes body after body hence today they are your teacher or family but in past you may be there teacher or elder. If you think that by fighting against them you will kill them in battle than you are wrong because soul is immortal and you cannot destroy indestructible soul. It always existed and will always exist and hence you should not grieve for indestructible soul and fight for the reestablishment of truth.
