The crown
chakra is associated with the pineal gland, which is in the mid-brain below the
cerebral hemisphere. It produces
melatonin and regulates our body clock.
The qualities of this chakra are bliss, beauty and spirituality. This is the chakra that allows us to feel
good and loved. This is where we know
that we are extensions of God's, and that all living things are connected in
this love.
Main Function
I am one with
God. "I will pause for a moment and go home". These words activate my
connection to the Father, and a wave of pleasure and recognition courses
through my body and I know the pleasure of being loved by the Father, and the
feeling of home and completeness. It is
a brief example of what eternity is like at home with the source of my
creation. It is time to get to know who and what you are. We are all extensions of God our Father's
love. This Chakra is about contact with
the love in all of us that returns us to our natural home where we have never
really left except by the crazy thought of separation from our source.
Happiness and
abundance can be ours and balancing the seventh chakra will help. It matters little what form your spirituality
takes; what matters is that you establish the connection to that within you
which is the communication link to our source.
By knowing and accepting that our lives are in the hands of the source energy, we surrender our fears and
burdens. We learn through this to deal with pain, loss, and separation by forgiving
our brothers in Christ for our imagined hurts.
We know that we are eternal, and that the body is just a temporary
vehicle for our spirit which we created with a thought of separation from God. To paraphrase Wayne Dyer, “We are not human
beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human
experience.” This chakra is where that
realization becomes most real to us. By
accepting that we are divinely guided by the Holy Spirit we lighten up. We become healthier and are able to live in
this illusion like we should. Honoring
the divine within allows us to know we are never alone and that we are guided,
loved and that we have never left the protection of our Father.
This Chakra
is about connectedness with the source energy of the universe and the
attainment of true happiness that is from within oneself, and not from outside material
sources.
People that
have opened their crown chakra describe it as bliss, rapture, and ecstasy. Meditation is the key to your bliss. It doesn’t matter what type of meditation you
choose as long as you spend some time with a quiet mind in connection with the
Holy Spirit our guide to letting go of this world and going home. It is then
that we will recognize that what we truly are never left home to begin with,
and have rested comfortably in love and peace with the Father.
