Why do chakras have colours? Every chakra or energy centre carries a unique frequency, wavelength, and density. Each of the seven chakras is associated with a specific colour that matches its vibration. Colour is absorbed light from the sun and subsequently it is an alive energy, transmitting information. Each colour in the visible light spectrum is created by a vibration that resonates within the chakra system. Each chakra resonates with the frequency of a colour that also correlates to a sound. For example, red, representing the root chakra, has the same frequency as a C note, so just like playing a singing bowl with the note of C, the colour red can entrain the root chakra to homeostasis, balancing it. Our chakras are in fact resonating at different colours in rainbow (ROYGBIV) order from base to crown. The higher the chakra, the faster the frequency. Although the exact colour of each energy centre may vary. For example, the root chakra’s colour red has the longest waves as this energy centre has the lowest frequency. In contrast, violet, associated with the crown chakra, has the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency. [ROYGBIV = White light – Visible region of the EMF (Electromagnetic Spectrum)]. 11/08/2023

Colours of Chakras and its Importance  Chakra is the Sanskrit word for “wheel,” symbolizing the energy spinning. Each chakra corresponds to different functions of the human body and consciousness. There are seven chakras the spinning wheels of pranic energy associated with specific energy centres that run from the base of the spine to the crown of the head.  Chakras and colours are both vibrating energy, however, you can only see the physicality of a colour. Therefore, chakra colours act as a visible representation of the unseen energy centres of the human body. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 10/08/2023

Asana – Practice of physical postures (mind could be controlled indirectly via yoga postures) 4. Pranayama - Breath control/Mindful Breathing (mind could be controlled indirectly via pranayama - breath control). 5. Pratyahara - Withdrawal of the senses/Turning inward (e.g. checking how others are maintaining the posture, if others are better than you develops envy) 6. Dharana - Concentration 7. Dhyana - Meditative absorption 8. Samadhi – Union/Integration . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 29/07/2023

PHASES IN YOGA “Asanas form one “anga” or limb of the eight limbed yoga. This means that Patanjali has introduced it with a specific purpose of utilizing the body of which is visible and gross, to develop an inner awareness and thus reach higher consciousness. Yoga postures helps us to develop forbearance because of maintenance. While maintaining, we go through three stages that are Sthira (achieve steadiness/stable), Cira (maintain it for a prescribed length of time) and Sukha (comfort). Patanjalie defines the nature of asana as “Sthira-Sukham”; posture should be steady and comfortable. The sukha stage is comparable to Dhyana (Samadhi/Concentration). If the posture is sukha for an appreciably long time (subjectively variant) the person enters the asanas “Siddhi” which is the super-conscious state or “Samadhi”. As Swami Vivekananda said – “I want to educate myself, I would learn deep concentration on one hand and effortless detachment on the other. These two factors form the basis for a harmonious, well-balanced growth of human potentialities through education system”. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 28/07/2023

Majority of the people believe that yoga asanas (postures) are meant for keeping the body fit and healthy. In other words they limit the asanas to physical exercises. It is like going to a millionaire and asking for a rupee. What is YOGA? Patanjali had fathomed the limitations of the lopsided growth of human mind and defined YOGA as “CHITTA VIRRITTI NIRODA”, the cessation of thoughts. Not suppression but sublimation. Not just learn to concentrate and focus but to invoke the skills to calm down the mind. But how can we do that? One cannot directly handle the mind. But mind could be controlled indirectly via yoga postures and pranayama (breath control). . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 27/07/2023

The Secret - SLOWING DOWN Look deeper into ourselves and ask the very fundamental and deep questions as Newton did. Often we miss the question ourselves in detail because we are very FAST. So we have to slow down. When you slow down; you understand the secrets. Therefore, the slow playback is the one which opens up the secret. For example a slow playback of cricket on TV we can understand how the wicket was lost. Therefore, how a human being could slow down the mental process to open up the secret of a blissful state? To initiate the slowing down of the mental process we could ask two fundamental and deep questions. 1. Do we ever forget to take our three meals or to do our daily physical needs? The answer will be No. 2. Do we ever have to allocate some time to watch ourselves inwardly, to have mental purity or to eradicate mental impurities? The answer is No. Then how could we slow down our mental process and live a blissful life? It could be achieved by continuous daily practices of Yoga and Meditation. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 21/06/2023

Happiness is neither in Concentration A young student is reading an interesting storybook of his choice that he would get fully immersed in it and he would never bother with his physical needs (i.e. eat, drink, wash etc). Even if he was forced to satisfy his physical needs he would go back and continue to read? What is happening to his inner state when he is reading? He is in a state of deep concentration/an absorbing concentration. The same thing will happen when someone watching an interesting movie. All the randomness, distractions worries of the mind accumulated during the day disappear! The person is in a state of perfect concentration! It looks as if happiness is concentration starting from 30 min, 1, 2, 3 hr and then the whole day a person gets strained, fatigued etc. Why does this happen? The reason is that happiness is not in concentration as it leads to strain and stress. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 15/06/2023

Happiness is within us. Once we could understand this, there is a world of difference!   But what are we doing? We are constantly searching for happiness from outside i.e. from our friends and families or by having vehicles, houses, dresses, shoes, TV and a variety of things to satisfy ourselves. But we never become happy or satisfied and why is that? It is because it has become a wild goose chase by searching for happiness in the wrong places. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 14/06/2023

Happiness is a Mirage The majority of us simply assume that happiness or joy is in the objects of enjoyment. Therefore, people tend to seek happiness by going to movies, music parties, restaurants, changing jobs and places (cities and countries) etc. where we have taken it for granted that happiness should be in objects. But this happiness has become a temporary thrill and the real happiness has gone far off.   What is the reason for this? There is something fundamentally wrong. . . #yoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #yogateacher #meditation #fyp #fypシ #srilanka 13/06/2023
