TIME = ART
The first chakra: also called "the root chakra", or
“Muladhara”, is located at the base of the spine. It is linked to survival
instincts and our ability to ground ourselves in the physical world. Blockage
manifests as paranoia, and defensiveness.
Behavioral
Characteristics
If a person with tightened jaws and fists refuses to live
in accordance with the natural laws that govern his body, he will create further
karma, or worldly entanglement. His sense and work organs will only serve to
bring confusion and pain in exchange for temporary gratification. Once a person
begins to act in harmony with these natural laws, he will no longer waste energy
or pollute his sensory awareness with over-indulgence. Such a person will act
wisely and with moderation, exploring his body and mind as vehicles of
liberation from the lower realms.
Normally a child from the ages of one to seven years acts
out of "first-chakra" motivations. The earth is being grasped as a new
experience. The infant must ground himself and establish the laws of his world,
learning to regulate his patterns of eating, drinking, and sleeping as the
proper behavior necessary for securing his worldly identity. The young child
will be self-centered and highly concerned with his own physical survival.
The main problem of the child, or adult, acting from
first-chakra motivation is violent behavior based on insecurity. A fearful
person may strike out blindly and senselessly, like a cornered animal, due to
what is felt to be a loss of basic security.
The person dominated by the Muladhara Chakra generally
sleeps between ten and twelve hours nightly, on his stomach. This chakra
encompasses the planes of genesis, illusion, anger, greed, delusion, avarice,
and sensuality. These aspects of the first chakra are fundamental to human
existence. The desire for more experience and information acts as a motivating
force, a basic impetus for individual development.
The Muladhara Chakra is the seat of the coiled Kundalini,
the vital Shakti, or Female energy force. The Kundalini serpent is coiled around
the Savayambhu Lingam. This foundation chakra is the root of all growth and
awareness of the divinity of man.
Associated with Physical identity, oriented to
self-preservation, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element
earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of
grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally this
chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.
Governs vigor, heredity, survival, security, passion,
trust, feet, & legs; also your relationship with money, home, and
work.
