What is Energy?
Our Universe has abundance of energy which is scattered everywhere but it can`t be used directly. The law of conservation of energy states that the energy in the universe cannot be created nor be destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. We interact with many forms of energy every day.When the universe came into the existence the massive energy that was the same converted itself into many types of energy like cosmic energy, life energy, spiritual energy and mental energy.
What is Cosmic Energy?
Cosmic energy is the life energy of the universe itself that is existent everywhere. It is present in the cosmos, between the galaxies, the molecules and in the space. It is the energy that puts the planets in orbits, the energy by which the atoms convert into molecules, and molecules into materials. Cosmic energy is super powerful and can manifest anything and everything. It is permanent and indestructible. Everything that is happening around us large into the planetary level or in the minute scale of atoms and molecules all is happening through cosmic energy. It is the energy that animates life and maintains balance in the entire universe.
How does cosmic energy work?
The cosmic energy is present everywhere. It flows through our bodies following predefined pathways referred to as Chakras and through a field referred to as the aura. Only few people can feel this energy and even fewer who can channel the true potential of this energy through them. When one understands completely the very concept of energy to attain Moksha, they become entirely different individuals. They even may achieve some abilities which seems worldly to the other individuals. The one who attain Moksha can perform all sorts of abilities physical, mental, and spiritual which are far beyond the normal individuals.
An interruption to the flow of cosmic energy results in diminished function, leading to negative thoughts and feelings. Also causes diminished functionality of cells and organ, therefore, leads to reduced productivity.
The connection of cosmic energy and the chakra system of the Human body
The chakras simply means disk in Sanskrit. We all have the power of Universe in our ‘chakras’ the energy centers in our body. There are energy centers all around our bodies. Our bodies have energy flowing in all parts of our bodies and the energy is accumulated here in the shape of disc hence the name chakra. The chakras are thought to be open and aligned for optimal emotional and physical well-being. If energy becomes blocked in one of the chakras, it triggers physical, mental, or emotional imbalance. So chakra centers need to be in perfect condition and balanced for the human body to be in healthy condition.
It is believed that there are seven chakras that run from the base of the spine to just above the top of your head. The cosmic energy moves through chakras centers in our human body where cosmic energy gets accumulated.
Each of the seven chakras carries a specific meaning, color, ability and represents a unique aspect of cosmic energy. If the body is in healthy condition then the cosmic energy can circulate properly within the body. Sometimes due to several reasons, the chakra centers in the body get closed or imbalanced. This disturbs the cosmic energy flow within the body. The disturbed energy flow within the body is the cause of the various imbalances within the body and sometimes even may lead to some illness and conditions.
When Chakra is blocked, there is not enough life energy flowing through it. This lack of energy can cause an imbalance in your body, affecting you physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Physical imbalance includes headaches, blurred vision, sinus issues, eyestrain, hearing loss, hormone function. Emotional imbalance includes issues with moodiness and volatility and self-reflection. Mental imbalance includes negative and harmful thoughts, distracted mind, low confidence and courage. So if these are imbalanced then it disrupts the cosmic energy flow.
Once all of the chakras are opened, the energy evens out, and becomes balanced. You change entirely. You crave healthy food, you want to exercise, you just want to be clam and meditate to find the inner peace. The chakra centers when are at the healthiest make the body, mind and soul healthiest.
