Chakra is an Energy center meaning a Wheel or Circuit that rotates on its axis. According to Ancient Saints, our body structure is divided into Energy fields called Chakras. Each Chakra is related to a specific Element and they are arranged lengthwise in the body and are in balance with each other to facilitate an uninterrupted flow of energy. An unbalanced Energy field due to any reason may cause a blockage in the flow of energy. Each Chakra has a specific colour related to it which is of vital importance for correcting a unbalanced Chakra or providing strength to it. The Chakras also correlate to levels of consciousness, colours, sounds, body functions & emotions. Activating these Chakras by various techniques including Pujas can help a person to activate his mind and body connections thereby overcoming different diseases.
It is of utmost importance that a person should know about the various chakras because of their varied properties so that it can be assessed as to which chakra needs to be balanced. We, at Rudraksha Center, have developed Special Pujas which helps in balancing the Energy levels of all the 7 Chakras which can be done by individual pujas for each chakra. Balancing the 7 Chakras generates good Fortune, good Health, Happiness, Prosperity and cordial Relationships for a person.
