ANAHATA
4. chakra ANAHATA- Heart chakra
In Sanskrit- unhurt, unstruck, unbeatenIt
The basic principle of anahata is devotion.
Anahata is associated with balance, peace and serenity, and expresses
unconditional love and the ability of compassion and forgiveness.
It's located on the inside of the back, right in the middle of the chest.
It has 12 petals with Sanskrit syllables depicting the 12
divine qualities of the heart.
1. Kam: bliss
2. Kham: peace
3. Gam: harmony
4. Gham: love
5. Ngam: understanding
6. Cham: empathy
7. Chham: clarity
8. Jam: purity
9. Jham: unity
10. Nyam: compassion
11. Tam: kindness
12. Tham: forgiveness
Even more commonly, systems of understanding identify
these vrittis as corresponding with various reflexive modifications away from
the indifferentiated divine mind, each one considered as arising from spiritual
ignorance:
1. asha: wish, desire, hope hope
2. cinta: thoughtfulness, anxiety worry
3. cesta: effort endeavor
4. mamta: possessiveness, fondness affection
5. dhamba: arrogance, vanity vanity
6. viveka: discrimination discernment
7. vikalata: languor depression
8. ahamkara: conceit, egoism, pride self-identity
9. lolata: covetousness, avarice selfishness

12. anutapa: regret, burning misery compunction
The shape of the hexagon represents the element air. It is intertwined with two triangles.
One triangle is consciousness - Shiva
The inverted triangle is creativity - Shakti
The eternal
flame (akhanda jjoti) in the middle represents the soul - jivatman.
The animal
symbol of this chakra is antelope - it represents acumen, resourcefulness, gentleness,
grace, and innocence.
Under manipura, one is controlled by parabdha- karma, and his life is
predestined.
In manipura, we gain control over our destiny, but it remains under the
influence of parabdha - karma.
Anahata is associated with the ability to make decisions outside the realm of
karma. In Manipura and below, man is bound by the laws of karma and destiny. In
Anahata, one makes decisions ("watches one's heart") on the basis of
the higher self, not on unfulfilled emotions and desires of a lower nature.
All thoughts, whether positive or negative, will come true. We have to
be vigilant like an antelope to avoid negative thinking.
When this chakra awakens, there is a significant shift in thinking, affecting
daily events.
If a person imagines success, he will be successful...and if he imagines doom,
he will be doomed.
Don't surround yourself with negative people and don't feel guilty.
Upon
awakening, one ceases to identify with the body, mind and feeling.
One becomes an Atman- a pure-hearted spirit.
They learn to
respect mothers and fathers and realize that we ourselves choose parents. Pure love is abstract and acts unconditionally, flowing like a river.
When we get rid of stubbornness and remove the protective shield, we can
empathize and understand others.
Psychic abilities make it possible to hear the sounds of the higher world, to
become an inspired artist, to achieve perfect health, and the ability to heal
others. To live calmly in all circumstances.
Anahata generates
creativity and fine art.

inside of you, you feel guilty, you long for revenge

hatred, fury and anger inside of you
- you feel
too much mental pressure, there are too many demands on you
- you want to
be popular, you try to satisfy others to get their attention and praise
Problems with
blood circulation
- you feel
stiff, inaccessible, restrained, as if you were constantly walking in a circle
without any change
- you allow
others to make important decisions and then blame them if something doesn't
work
- you're
afraid to take risks
- you do
everything the way you were taught, instead of trying something new
Lungs cancer
- you are too
hard on yourself and others
- you have
too many expectations, you feel disappointment, loneliness, bitterness,
sadness, and anger
- you holdin
you the pain of a broken heart or guilt from a difficult relationship, or a
relationship in which you have been abused
- you are not
able to forgive and get it out of your head
- you tend to
always be in the last place, exaggerate everything, and exhaust all your energy
If we
sincerely feel sorry for someone who has cancer, it is as if we have accepted
this new test and asked for this experience (I want this) in our life plan.
Immediately with pity, fear or reluctance to live and not realizing that the
person we feel sorry for got cancer in order to "wake up"(or so that
his soul can leave quickly and not waste time in this world, so that it can
increase the frequency of Being in the next life, since he failed in this body
and awareness because he didn't realize his Self and lived in hendonistic life
and fear), we will get cancer within 2 years.
The only
reason we are here is to be happy and accept everything in love and humility,
because if we are humble we don't need anything.
We accept and find good even in a difficult situation - a test.
If we enjoy
the happiness of others, and if we give love, understanding and everything from
the heart, everything will come back to us many times.
If we are kind, humble, charismatic, and able to forgive ourselves and others,
we will increase the frequency of our Being.
In this
chakra, the most important thing is to be able to forgive from the heart and
send love.
From the bottom
of your heart, say:
"-name of the person you want to forgive-, I give you freedom, liberty and love." (by this, we cut the bond of escape of our energy)
If we
constantly think about a harm from a close person, then we subconsciously send
them our energy. We weaken the heart- heart chakra. = dull pain between the
shoulder blades.
With a long-term feeling of hatred towards a close person, we will at least
cause ourselves a weakening of the heart.
If we forgive them, we will cut the bond, our energy will stay with us, and within 24- 48 hours, they will subconsciously feel that our energy is no longer flowing to them, so they will want to connect again. They will contact us and want to provoke us again to connect and get our energy.
