Energizing the Chakras

 “Think of your seven chakra centers as different school subjects. Maybe some classes you aced but others you just passed or maybe even failed. 

It is the same with your chakra centers. How do you expect to have an understanding of your chakra centers if you’ve never even taken a class in the chakra system? Consider that our chakras are our life subjects. Each chakra center is connected to a level of intelligence that is part of our whole being.”   ( I See Arise)

 

"The chakras are more dense than the auras, but not as dense as the physical body, but they interact with the physical body through two major vehicles, the endocrine system and the nervous system.  Each chakra can be associated with particular parts of the body, endocrine glands and particular functions."    (I See Arise)

The chakra system is a model for the flow of energy that runs through all life …it is like a ladder that takes us from the physical realm of substance up through the spiritual. Like a ladder of love that takes us from the lowest and most base aspects of life (survival) to the highest realm of consciousness.  They are like the repositories of our thoughts, feelings and attitudes.

Chakras are Vortexes of light  that operate with different bands of energy and colors on electromagnetic and sound spectrum.  They emanate from us, generated by energies that come to us from heavenly realms and the physical world as well.   They act as transformers, directing energy in 4 directions, up, down, in, out.

They are subtle energy centers whose job is to manage physical, psychological and spiritual aspects. Their energy emanates from the spine’s front and backsides. similar to physical organs, but unlike liver or heart, is a full service station.

Chakras are gateways…each is important and there is not a hierarchy. Each provides intuitive insights. Each assists in being who we really are. Various spiritual or intuitive gifts are linked to each chakra.  

Some of the advantages of chakra “work” include:  Heal and recover from illness. Free trapped and repressed emotions. Create loving relationships. Attune to spiritual guidance and insights. Attain state of peace. Reduce stress.  Create boundaries. Elevate us from the physical reality into a more heavenly one. 

  Colors are usually lighter(brighter) than portrayed in representations. Colors are dependent upon frequency. The spin (rotation), speed and direction is unique to each person. There is no “wrong” way for spin. Generally, clockwise is bringing in energy; counter clock is releasing energy.  A chakra may switch several times a day, or hour depending on the energy it is processing.

“Color, simply put, is the quality we perceive in light that our eyes see reflected or emitted from objects. Different objects reflect different wavelengths of light, which our brains interpret as different colors. In essence, color is a visual experience caused by light interacting with an object.”  Internet definition

The colors of chakras are determined by a combination of factors, including their vibrational frequency, corresponding elements, and the energetic qualities they represent. Each chakra is associated with a specific color that reflects its unique energy and function, Each chakra vibrates at a specific frequency, and this frequency is represented by a corresponding color in the light spectrum. 

The auric field (another phrase for Aura) is an emanation of chakras.  Each chakra generates a partnered auric field that serves as a filter. There are numerous depictions depending on different opinions.

Each chakra is said to be resonant with a particular “Platonic shapes” which are convex polyhedrons. All the faces are regular and identical in form.  Faces of platonic solids do not intersect except at their edges. The same number of faces meet at each vertex. Every face is a regular polygon. 

All over the internet, much information can be found.  It is a good lesson in discernment. Most often, the 7 chakra system is referenced.  But, you can also find 8, 12, 20 even 114.  You are encouraged to do your own prayer and research. Here are some others:

No matter what the numerical system, there are advanced chakras that connect us to different realms and worlds.

How do we CLEAR  chakras?

• They are already activated (since birth) but often need “clearing”
• Pay attention to them during your meditation. 
•   Colors, frequencies, musical notes, sacred geometry
•   Stones, essential oils, “energy” balls
•   Affirm and get permission from God.  Ask.
• “Let go and let God.”  (Surrender and be the vehicle)
•   Next is a quote from I See, Arise on the importance of meditation and working with energy and chakras. Chakras of the earth:

“ …Those of darkness are going to do everything they can to stop those who seek for light…. By being consistent with the breathing, meditation, and energy, it is possible to rise in physical frequency to the point those who are seeking to destroy any and all forms of light, … are no longer able to visually see those who are working in the light of Christ.  When you are working with the bright energy balls, you are working with the light of Christ.”    I See, Arise 

Do animals have chakras?

Discovering the Heart

     On Nov. 27, 2023 I had a dream.  The setting was a small auditorium with a group of people sitting in their seats. The presenter came out and said to everyone.  “Get out your paper and pen.  Write an essay on the subject,What is the heart? No looking at phones or talking to your neighbor.”  I just kind of sat there wondering what to write, then woke up.  I journaled the dream and figured it was a wake up call to study more about the heart.  

1. Spiritual 💗 💕
2. Physical Heart. 🫀
3. Hard Heart 💜 
4. Broken 💔
5. Pure in ❤️
6. Praying from the ❤️ 🙏
7. Love God ❤️
8. One ❤️
9. Emotions of the ❤️ and ❤️ Walls

   

 …The natural flow of blood within the four heart chambers creates a vortex or “vortex rings” which resembles the natural flow of energy in nature, and all throughout the universe that surrounds us.  

 The heart is not just for pumping blood. The heart is the key to balancing the spiritual and energetic dimensions.  

“Konstantin Meyl working on DNA found out that DNA uses magnetic scalar waves to transfer information. They can go across the universe—faster than speed of light.  He was able to demonstrate that mathematically.  There is science that we’re not taught in school. The heart has its own field and that’s a scalar field—a torus-like field that emanates information like the scalar waves in all directions of time-space."

 So, when your brain, your mind and your heart are coherent with each other, then you can expand and send information.” (Keep this in mind when we talk about praying from the heart.)

 The Holy Ghost speaks to and through the heart. If the heart and mind are in coherence, then the information flows to the mind, which translates it into language.  What is coherence? Coherence is when the heart, mind and emotions are in energetic alignment and cooperation.  

 

This is where we can think of love and appreciation for the Savior…

“Joseph defined pure revelation as intelligence, not emotions. We tend to view the heart as if it were entirely emotions: 

• “Oh, she touched my heart; therefore, I’m in love with her.” 
• “My heart reaches out to the puppy, to the kitten.” 

We tend to view “heart” as if it were merely sentiment, but if you accept Joseph’s definition of the Holy Ghost, then the heart is …(more than) where mere sentiment exists. 

"Your mind (which might be knowledge) and your heart (which might be wisdom)—in other words, I will tell you in your mind (I’ll give you information) and in your heart (I’ll give you the wisdom by which you know how to apply the knowledge that you’re given), which comes to you by the mind of God, the Holy Ghost, which includes both the Father and His Companion and the Son.”   

  Is he talking about the physical heart or Spiritual? What is the spiritual Heart? It is more than the heart chakra.

It is found in the right chamber of the heart, about one finger-width from the body’s midline to the right. It is said to be visible to the inner (third) eye.   (I believe it can expand and even surround the physical heart. IMO)

 

Because it cannot be understood by the rational mind, the role of the Spiritual Heart is ignored and often denied.  

Most of us have been taught in school that the heart is constantly responding to orders sent by the brain. However, the heart actually sends more signals to the brain than the brain sends to the heart.   

 

“Our hearts need to feed on beauty to sustain them. We need times of solitude and silence. We need times of refreshment and laughter and rest. We need to listen to the voice of God in our hearts as He tells us what we need.” (John Eldredge, Captivating.)

The scriptures are full of references to hardness of heart.

  What does it mean to have Hardness of Heart? 

 

 “Hardness of heart is usually accompanied by a hardness of head; that is, people tend to not be willing to live in accordance with principles, even though they want to know about them. They are often more curious than they are obedient…  Man determines whether he has a hard heart or an open heart. ... Anciently, the “heart” was considered the seat of understanding rather than emotion; therefore, an “open heart” belonged to the seeker, the asker, the knocker on the door.” 

A “hard heart” is being unbelieving, slothful, stubborn, obstinate.   A “soft heart” is meek, humble, patient, full of love, teachable and willing to cast out false traditions in order to find truth.  

 Scriptures are also filled with references to a “broken heart.” 

What is a Broken Heart?  

“When you turn to Him and see … how dark your ways have been, it should break your heart. You should realize how desperately you stand in need of His grace to cover you, lift you, and heal you. You can then appreciate the great gulf between you and Him (Genesis 1:2). If you had to bear your sins into His presence it would make you burn with regret and fear (Mormon 4:6). Your own heart must break.  

The heart that will not break does not understand the predicament we live in. .… …The Book of Mormon gives account after account of encounters between mankind and God where the only qualification was a broken heart and a contrite spirit. Those who do not have the required broken heart and contrite spirit come away saying, the Lord maketh no such thing known unto us (1 Nephi 4:2). “ 

Basically, a broken heart is the surrender of all ego and pride.

What does it mean to be Pure in Heart?

“And God blesses the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”  3 Nephi 5:17 CC

“Purity of the heart is a . . . benefit from the Savior. Man cannot become clean before God without the necessary offering of a sacrifice. The law of Moses taught this, but Christ actually brought it to pass.  Christ’s atonement cleanses mankind  through repentance, all can turn to Christ and listen to and follow Him”.

What Does it Mean to Pray from the Heart?

When Jesus prayed with the multitude gathered at Bountiful they prayed without ceasing. He commanded them to not cease to pray in  their hearts.   What kind of things did they pray in their hearts? What could praying in our hearts look like? Is it the same as vocally? They “were filled with desire”. The desire part of their prayer undoubtably facilitated their praying in the heart.

This kind of prayer is a sharp contrast to Isaiah’s description—“they approach me with the mouth and pay me homage with their lips while their heart remains far from me.”  Isa 26:9

Think about what you would pray for vocally. Sum it up. Fill your heart with the essence of desire and offer up that prayer.  Feeling gratitude in all things allows your prayer to come from the heart.   

 Pray from the Heart. If from the mind, it doesn't get through.

“Throughout the record of the brother of Jared, never once does the word “pray/prayer” appear. …(What did he do?) He “cried.”

Consider…the difference between being someone who prays to God and someone who “cries” unto God. …

…Why is God willing to speak to such a man, …? What is it about …this attitude that this man possesses, that tells you his heart is right before God? He is willing to receive.”  

This willingness goes right along with having a soft heart.

  What Does It Mean to Love God with all Your Heart? 

“Can there be any doubt that God wants to be sought after? The first and greatest of all commands is to love him.   He wants us to love him. To seek him with all our heart.   (John Eldredge, Beautiful Outlaw). Luke 8:9  

 

 Throughout the Old and New Testaments, . . . the heart is clearly God's central concern.  God tells us in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart.   He knows that to lose heart is to lose nearly everything. Sadly, most of us watch the oil level in our car more carefully than we watch over the life of our heart.  (John Eldredge, The Sacred Romance). 

To“guard our Heart,”  is  to be watchful , alert and vigilant. It is an attitude of attentiveness in which we are almost continuously aware of the Heart.  This also includes Christ  centered shielding.

John Eldredge quote “ Begin to make a practice of loving Jesus. As I’m driving in my car, I will simply tell him, I love you. Not once, like a sneeze, but over and over again: I love, I love you, I love you. ….When I wake up and the sunshine is pouring through the window, I’ll say, I love you. …Anytime something makes me laugh. When I see a chipmunk or a wave, when I enjoy a movie. I love you, I love you, I love you.”  

The best way of keeping the awareness of the Spiritual Heart is to love.

       “…Find a few worship songs that lift your heart.”

“Linger with the songs, play them over and over, and simply tell Jesus you love him. Put them on your iPod; play them in your car. The more you practice this, the richer it becomes.”

(John Eldredge, Beautiful Outlaw)

(Do you know what a worship song is? John Wesley  penned the hymn "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," whose first verse goes like this: "Jesus, Lover of my soul/Let me to thy bosom fly.”   A worship song is talking directly to Jesus or God, rather than “about” them.)

   What is a “new” heart? T&C 156:16.  “give to us a new heart”

T&C 157: 4 “weigh the hearts of men…Wisdom counsels mankind to align their words with their hearts, but mankind refuses to take counsel from Wisdom.”

“When God looks at you he does not see your sin. He has not one condemning thought toward you (Rom. 8:1). But that's not all. You have a new heart.   "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws" (Ezek. 36:26 -27). (John Eldredge, Wild at Heart) Romans 1:7-8;  Ezekiel 8:8; 18:9. RE

What does it mean to Have One Heart?

Zion is a people of one heart and one mind.

 “I would love to be a part of a community where everyone is of one heart and one mind. That implies that we know and care for the vulnerable parts of each other's hearts.”   (Denver Snuffer)

 

(T&C 157:53) “Be of one heart, and regard one another with charity. Measure your words before giving voice to them, and consider the hearts of others. Although a man may err in understanding concerning many things, yet he can view his brother with charity and come unto me, and through me he can with patience overcome the world. I can bring him to understanding and knowledge. Therefore, if you regard one another with charity, then your brother's error in understanding will not divide you. I lead to all truth. I will lead all who come to me to the truth of all things. …

Denver said,“It doesn't matter if someone errs in understanding, because guess what? We all do. The Lord is the source of all truth, and if we will just let others be, and love them for who they are and not what they believe, He will reward us by leading us to all truth.”

So….in summary, having one heart is having the same desires (objective) while viewing our brethren with charity.  Having one mind is taking action to fulfill the objective with charity and without conflict. 

“And he commanded them not to have any heated arguments with each other, but to look forward with one eye, having one faith and one baptism, having their hearts bound together in unity and  love toward each other. This is how he commanded them to preach. And so they became God’s children. (Mosiah 9:9, CC)” 

 Emotions in the Heart

How many have heard of Heart walls? 

Our hearts are vulnerable to emotional injury.  

T&C 157:49

“You have all been wounded, your hearts pierced through with sorrows because of how the world has treated you.”

     Imagine you experienced a betrayal or a break-up— a traumatic event, a divorce or abandonment, or any situation of chronic abuse, or an accident, or if a loved one transitioned to the other side, where do you feel it? Most probably in your heart. Your heart hurts, and you might feel very heavy.

 At that moment, this mix of emotion goes to your heart chakra. There, this negative experience creates not only a chakra occupant but also a heart-wall made of trapped emotions.

 Heart walls can affect us in several ways. First, they block the heart energy from flowing through the body; this makes it more difficult for the body to heal itself, and can cause physical symptoms, particularly in the neck, upper back and shoulders. Second, heart walls block us from fully opening our hearts to others. whatever you do and say, cannot come from the bottom of your heart. while nothing can get into your heart, at the same time, your love and joy cannot get out of your heart. Your love, desire, and happiness get trapped behind that heart-wall, so you are unable to send out positive vibes.

“But it protects me,” you may say. Sure, it protects you from negativity getting into your heart.  

 It does keep toxic, intruding negativity out and allows you to survive. So, it does serve a purpose. But only temporarily.

And that’s the big challenge with your heart-wall because nobody told you how to remove it wall after its initial purpose is fulfilled.

Basically, your subconscious  is using the energy from that negative experience– to keep you safe and help you function through a difficult time.

The walls can also hinder us from getting revelation and connecting  with the Holy Ghost.

Dr. Bradley Nelson discovered “heart walls” by inspiration. His wife was having many physical and emotional problems. He discovered she had a heart wall made of wooden flooring 5 miles deep created from trapped emotions. It took many weeks to gradually release it.  

My horse Luna had a heart wall made of willow trees that was several feet thick. It took three different clearings of trapped emotions to release her heart wall.

Empaths especially are prone to heart walls. It is to our benefit to release the heart walls and protect our hearts with Christ centered shielding.  

 You can ask the Savior to release (heart walls). You need to be willing to release them.

“We are now in the late stages of the long and vicious war against the human heart.   (Look at) what is unfolding around us . . . against us. And until we call the situation what it is, we will not know what to do about it. In fact, this is where many people feel abandoned or betrayed by God. They thought that becoming a Christian (or Mormon) would somehow end their troubles, or at least reduce them considerably. No one ever told them they were being moved to the front lines, and they seem genuinely shocked at the fact that they've been shot at.

Hello? That's what happens in war-you get shot at. Have you forgotten? We were born into a world at war. This scene we're living in is no sitcom; it's bloody battle. Haven't you noticed with what deadly accuracy the wound was given? Those blows you've taken- they were not random accidents at all. They hit dead center.

On and on it goes. The wound is too well aimed and far too consistent to be accidental. It was an attempt to take you out; to cripple or destroy your strength and get you out of the action. Do you know why there's been such an assault? The Enemy fears you. You are dangerous big-time. If you ever really got your heart back, lived from it with courage, you would be a huge problem to him. You would do a lot of damage . . . on the side of good.”  

(Wild at Heart , p. 85-87)

   

 

   

There are so many resources out there about the heart. Use discernment.
