Introduction to The Tantra Chakra System
Chakra is a very important element when you learning and experiencing tantra. Today I want share with you my knowledge about 7 Chakras, what is Chakas, Locations and the Chakra symbols.
Tantra is a practice that cultivates awareness of our oneness with existence through sexual awakening. This happens through the opening of the chakras or energy centres in the body. Typically in sexual encounter, we send our sexual energy outwards. We may experience deep bliss for a while, but generally this does not last. With Tantric awareness, our sexual vitality starts to move up our bodies like a snake that uncoils, from the root or base of the body all the way up through the crown. Sexual energy moves from the first chakra up. This process is often known at the Uncoiling of the Snake (sexual energy or kundalini).
What is Chakra?
The chakra is an energetic center within the auric and physical body of human. Chakras are also referred to as ‘acupoint’, and serve as the nonphysical highway through which cosmic energy travels, connecting this energy with the physical body. This cosmical energy is what we call Life Force or Prana. Although there are over 100 chakras total in the body (according to the tantric texts – and there is still debate about the exact number), there are only seven that are considered major. These seven align with specific, vertically stacked key points along the central line from of the human body, and are the main centers that yogis and energy workers tend to focus in on.
