Hi Cris.

Nice to meet you again.

 

Would you mind telling us a bit more of that experience of yours?

How have you come to the capability of getting that inner image of how each

chakra looks like? I guess it must have been quite a travel, and, if that's

ok with you, i really would like to know about it. How you've got to that,

what it meant to you, how it helped or changed anything in your life, how

useful, etc... Ah, and how you scrub ;-)

 

Where did i leave my purple-flame-brush again ;-) (joking, but seriously and

with all respect. i do have one

I am interested too. I have looked up the book at Amazon, and not

surprinsigly, it doesn't have a review or anything to get a catch at it.

Could you say a bit more of what's in the book, or what orientation it has

(what previous knowledge should be have, or if it is theorical, practical,

or whatever) or anything else you'd want to say.

Thanks for the comments, Rev Rob Rub

Of course, a list is very much impersonal to assess anything in a clear

way.

Likewise, Alain.

A couple of years ago, while surfing the 'net, I found a good page on chakra

meditations, and printed up the instructions for myself. Now, the bookmark

has long been lost, and the printed page vanished, LOL, but I remember MY

version of it. The essentials are that you find a quiet time and place and

focus your attention on each chakra, breathing deeply as you do, and try to

'see' with your mind's eye.

The capability came with practice...actually, the ability became REFINED

with practice, because I remember having a distinct sensation of 'seeing'

each chakra. Some were brighter, some had that charcoal cover I mentioned.

The first time I tried it, the base chakra seemed to me to be in pretty bad

shape, appearing in my mind like an ember in a fire that is dying

out...mostly black with a hint of red glow in the centre. So I did a

visualization of the fire expanding, and sloughing off the black cinders.

And, oddly enough, I felt better...not physically, but as though I'd done

something good...it's really hard to explain.

 

Anyway, I just work my way from the base up through each one, studying,

focussing...and the scrubbing is a vivid visualization of whatever method

you prefer for restoring fine gem stones to their brightest and best.

Brushes are good for cleaning, retouching colour...all kinds of good

stuff.

the book sounds good on chakras, but not to someone who has absolutely no

money. Is there a chakra meditation tape that someone knows about or video

that can be seen for a rental fee, or ???????? I know my chakras are badly in

need of alignment and I am suffering from a severe illness, and no matter

what I do, my life just keeps being stressful and full of despair

 

SIncerely,
