Using The Power Of Chakra Sound
by Nisal Karuiyaratna
The chakra is a Sanskrit word that literally means a spinning wheel or
vortex. It's other meaning are the seven chakras found in the human
body which corresponds to the glandular systems of the body. Each
chakra is a center of spinning energy where the first chakra is found
at the base of the spine while the seventh, at the crown.
It is known that the chakra is a center of spinning energy, and that
everything that moves causes vibrations. With this vibration, you find
sound and this is why different parts of the body vibrate with
different chakra sounds at different frequencies.
Seven different chakra sounds come from the seven chakras. Colors also
vibrate with the sound at different frequencies. There are different
colors associated with the different chakras and it is the combination
of the chakra sound and color that restores balance in chakras. This
in turn improves health.
You only need your voice for sound healing via chakra sounds, to feel
better, calmer and clearer in a matter of minutes. However these
chakra sounds should be soft and gentle, and not longer than five
minutes duration each.
1. The first chakra sound is 'UH', the deepest sound possible. This
chakra sound has to be done with eyes closed and with attention on the
spine base chakra, the base chakra. When chanting the chakra sound,
you have to be aware of the sound resonance found in the chakra
location and not from the throat. This chakra sound is associated with
the color red and has to be chanted for one or two minutes, and not
longer than five minutes.
2. The second chakra sound comes from the second chakra found about
three inches below the naval. The chant for this chakra sound is 'OOO'
which can be complimented with the color orange. Eyes have to be
closed for one to two minutes when chanting to realize the balancing
of this chakra with other chakras.
3. 'OH' is the third chakra sound that has to come from the navel
chakra located in the navel area. Yellow is the complimenting color
and the chakra sound should start softly and gently, but with a higher
tone than the last sound.
4. The heart chakra is found in the middle of the chest, and its
chakra sound is 'AH'. This is the sound that is emitted when in love,
and this is why the heart chakra is usually related to love. This
chakra sound can be complimented with the color green and should be
started with a gentle and soft sound, that is however of a higher
pitch than the last chakra sound.
5. 'EYE' is the chakra sound for the throat chakra that can be
complimented with blue. This chakra sound too has to be higher in
pitch than the previous sounds.
6. In between the forehead and slightly above the two eyes is the
chakra sound belonging to the third eye. This chakra sound is 'AYE'
and is complimented with indigo color. This chakra sound starts with a
soft and gentle tone which is however of a higher pitch than the
previous sounds.
7. The crown chakra situated at the top of the head is where you chant
the highest sound possible, 'EEE'. This chakra sound is complemented
with the color purple that starts with the highest sound you can make,
'EEE'. Like other chakra sounds, this chakra sound also starts softly
and gently.
The eyes have to be closed when chanting all chakra sounds with
attention concentrated on the different chakras. This focus on the
chakra starts projecting the chakra sound from the chakra. And the
resonance from the sound chakras helps in the balance and alignment of
the each chakra with other chakras.
After the exercise, you are sure to feel light headed. It is better to
relax or meditate after this to process your experience and realize
the actual benefits you gain through chakra sounds.
