The ganpati festival is being celebrated in many parts of India. Lord Ganesha is associated with this chakra in our body. Hence this post to highlight the importance of first important chakra in our body.
Mooladhar chakra
Innocence and Wisdom (Mooladhara)
The deity of this
chakra is Shri Ganesha. It is having four petals and is associated with
excretory organs.
Qualities. Your Mooladhara chakra forms the
foundation of your entire subtle energy system. It represents eternal and
indestructible qualities within you. These qualities only manifest to their
fullest potential when your Kundalini energy has been awakened. This chakra is
represented by a coral red color. It is closely aligned with the earth element.
Negative
societal influences can also muddy the pure innocence and wisdom that is part
of your Mooladhara chakra. The good news is that meditation can restore them.
When you rebalance your Mooladhara, you can renew your energy and priorities.
A
balanced Mooladhara chakra will also lead to improved memory, attention and
focus. You’ll be able to manage your intellectual energy and make decisions
quickly while maintaining emotional balance and stability.
Additionally,
the innocence of this chakra will enable you to view other people and
situations without prejudice or bias. Your actions will be pure as a result.
Tapping into your Mooladhara
will give you the ability and authority to raise your own Kundalini energy as
well as that of others who also wish to experience the benefits of Kundalini
energy awakening. You will become better able to distinguish false information.
You will not fall prey to those who would cheat you or “take you for a ride.”
Your
Mooladhara chakra plays a role in helping you remain in harmony with nature. It
also helps you to avoid unnatural or unhealthy lifestyles (those that may be
considered “perverse” or “against nature”). Mooladhara allows you to respect
your innocence and purity, as well as that of others. It is through the
Mooladhara chakra that birth and creation continue their course.
When
you experience a disruption of your Mooladhara chakra, many illnesses mayresult. Because it governs sexuality and the reproductive system, balancing
this chakra will guard against a misuse of sexuality or sexual perversions.
Mooladhara also governs your excretory system. When the chakra is balanced,
your body will be free of diarrhea or constipation.
Left
channel problems, such as depression or lethargy, can also be prevented by
balancing the Mooladhara chakra. Right channel problems, such as aggressive
behavior, excessive thinking, excessive planning and overindulging may also beeliminated.
Self-Assessment. If
your Mooladhara chakra is out of balance, you may experience a poor sense of
direction, poor memory, or a poor sense of balance (gravity). Other symptoms of
disruption in this chakra include excretory problems, sexual disorders and
reproductive difficulties.
How to Balance. Fortunately,
it is quite simple to balance your Mooladhara chakra. To begin, you should sit
directly on the earth as often as possible. While enjoying a peaceful moment
outdoors, you may clear your left Mooladhara by resting on the ground in a
cross-legged fashion. Place both hands on the ground beside your hips, palms
facing downward.
If
you are unable to spend time outside, there is another option. Soaking your
feet in a bowl of warm salted water is also helpful in balancing the Mooladhara
chakra
