Notes on the Fourth Chakra

The Sanskrit name for the 4th chakra is “Anahata.” This word means “unstruck” or “stillness.” This seems to imply that deep beneath our brokenness and pain, wholeness abides.

The 4th chakra is located in our heart center. It governs our intuition and love. It is also known as the heart chakra.

Glands/organs/parts of the body associated with the 4th chakra:

Thymus, heart, lungs, chest, arms, breasts

The primary color for the 4th chakra is green and the secondary color is pink.

The element for the 4th chakra is air. Pranayama practice helps to balance this chakra.

The sense for the 4th chakra is touch, feeling, clairsentient.

The emotion of the heart chakra is compassion and joy. The 4th chakra feels the suffering of others.

The foods for this chakra are air, vegetables (especially green ones), and love.

When the 4th chakra is deficient, you may experience feelings of shyness and loneliness, an inability to forgive or a lack of empathy. Physical conditions can include shallow breathing, asthma, and some lung diseases.

When the 4th chakra is excessive one may experience co-dependency, possessiveness, jealousy, heart problems and high blood pressure.

In yoga, poses that stimulate the 4th chakra are backward bends (anything that opens the chest). A powerful way to energize this chakra is to love ourselves and others.

The Sexual-Creative Chakra

The second chakra is the sexual-creative chakra.  You are a sexual being–all humans are.  It is up to you to determine how free or how stifled you will be as a sexual being, but you are a sexual being.  This sexuality is the core of your creative process, for it is the core of YOU.  Sexuality is the deepest part of self-identity, for it is how you relate to Self and how you relate to others.

We speak of sexuality here not as an act, but rather as a state of being.  Sexual energy is an energy of attraction and opposition.  A chemistry of some kind exists between any two people when they first meet.  The initial energy connection between any two people occurs at the sexual-creative chakra regardless of the kind of relationship that will establish between them.  As the relationship develops, the connection will expand out from this chakra to the higher centers, and the relationship will begin to take on more shape and dimension.  This second chakra is “we,” while the first chakra is “me."  Here you first become aware of others as beings with whom to relate.  Sexuality must be clear and free in order to allow "we” to happen freely on any level.

Here is the issue of sexuality–being open so that the initial “chemistry” with another can occur.  Step into yourself–the deepest part of Self, and let the energies flow, both from Earth and Heaven.  Release the past and future here, and be at peace with the beautiful, sexual being you are.  Remember that sexuality is the essence of you because it is your primal energy.  You can make choices about sexual behavior or expression, but in order to become a truly realized being, the sexual energy itself must be allowed to flow freely in an uninhibited manner.

“Yeah, two particles that, at some point, were united, these are still in some kind of connection. No matter the distance between the two, even if they are at opposite ends of the universe. The connection between them is instantaneous. It’s the same thing that happens between two people when they link them to a bond that only living beings can experience. Is the way this relationship works to the one we call love. 💜✨“

“The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention… A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.”

“I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me. I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature. I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me. I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretense, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise. I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance. I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal. I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals. And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.”

[eli0tknight-deactivated20181203]

No one warns you about sleepless nights, about unproductivity and the mundane, no one tells you growing up that one day you’ll find yourself bleeding your wounds out on the bedroom floor, or how bathrooms are sanctuaries; no one tells you about the fatal attraction towards the unhealthy that you adopt time and time again; no one warns you about the real dangers of the world- loneliness and pain, and all the ways you deal with them. They tell you not to smoke or drink or have sex, but they forget to teach you kindness to yourself, they forget to teach you self-love; they forget to teach you how to cope with rejection and pain, they tell you to forgive but never teach you how, they tell you to love but never the consequences of failed loves, they warn you about heartbreaks from lovers but never those from family and friends, they tell you to dream but kill it before you can climb its ladder, they read you fairy tales but lack imagination, they tell you life is hard, that the world is ugly, but you never see them making it less of all that, then you grow up not knowing what to believe or who to be, with your heart still young but wounded, and your spirit yearning but reluctant. You have a body with too many marks, eyes with too many scars, you carry hope like a sacred flower- all its petals fall each time the world disappoints you, and instead of abandoning it, you go tape it back together; and here you are, all patched up- old cotton cloth and rusty car parts; you’re barely alive, and in love with the idea of what life could live up to be, and though it never does, you never give up, and I would say that’s what makes you strong, that that’s what makes you beautiful, but all it makes you, is a dreamer. People never teach us these things growing up because they too carry flowers of their own, and they don’t want you to grow up without hope, because if you knew all this when you were too young, then you would not make it this far, and it would be a shame, because there is so much more to life than all this, and the only way to have it all, is to carry the flower of hope in your heart.
