6Th CHAKRA

Sixth Chakra 

The sixth chakra is referred to as the Third Eye Chakra. In Sanskrit it is known as Aagya Chakra i,e. Command wheel. It is located above the area of physical eyes on the center of the forehead. This is the center for psychic ability, higher intuition, the energies of spirit and light. It also assists in the purification of negative tendencies and in the elimination of selfish attitudes. Through the power of the sixth chakra, one can receive guidance, channel, and tune into your Higher Self. When this chakra is not balanced you may feel non-assertive, afraid of success, or go the opposite way and be egotistical. Please also read Third Eye Meditation.

The sixth chakra is the chakra of forgiveness and compassion.

Forgiveness is the power to let go of anger, hatred and resentment.

Forgiveness lets us discover, in humility, the nobility and generosity of the Spirit.

Forgiveness dissolves all our ego, conditionings, habits, false ideas of racialism, and all our misidentifications.

It is the narrow gate which opens the way 

In the sixth step of evolution, Christ came to absolve human beings of all sin. He forgave and took upon himself all sin. 

He helped man to realise his own ego by allowing hmself to be crucified; great penance was aroused in man, thus enabling him to see the monstrosity of his own ego and this brought about humility in him.  

The Christ established within this chakra gives the potential for human beings to forgive and be forgiven, to clear themselves from the effects of their sins and karmas. 

Hence, when we forgive others, our ego is reduced and Kundalini is able to pierce through this chakra and rise in its full glory at the seventh chakra. 

To rise above the ego, one has to forgive everyone.  

Roving eyes disturbsn the attention of the Agnya chakra. 

Too much visual entertainment or television or computers adversely affects this chakra.  

Wrong notions about God block this chakra. Religious people become dogmatic; they get stuck to the letter of the scriptures and miss out the essence of the prophets. Once should not become rigid. Let us seek the spirit of the Buddha, not Buddhism, the Christ, not Christianity.

for our consciousness to ascend to its final destination, which is the seventh cen
