The Human Body Energy Centers

The human body energy centers or Chakra's are the base in Raja Yoga (or the Royal Yoga). Raja Yoga is a powerful, more spiritual approach to achieve enlightenment. The awakening of these energy centers is found in martial arts too when practitioners perform meditation (zen) or Tai Chi exercises. The following video series is a beautiful introduction in this ancient knowledge:







From "Nothing" everything come into being. Matter, space, time and energy, all came out from the Ocean of Pure Consciousness. Eventually life emerged from this apparently dead Universe. Time passed and the life evolved and became conscious of it self.

We as humans have the opportunity to get back to our true home, to our Father, to the Creator if we are awaken. Man should seek enlightenment during his life not material possessions because matter is not the true nature of human beings.

This returning to the Creator is imminent. God said in the bible "I'm the Alfa and Omega, the Beginning and the End" meaning that He created us and He would rejoin with all of us at the End of Times.

Meditation




The stream hides itself
   In the grasses
      Of departing autumn.

Leaves falling,
   Lie on one another,
      The rain beats on the rain.

A trout leaps
   Clouds are moving
      In the bed of the stream.

The fallen flower
   Returning to the branch ?
      It was a butterfly.

The wind brings
   Fallen leaves enough
      To make a fire.

Haiku poems collected by Alan Watts and extracted from "The Way of Zen".

Intellectual approach to Yoga

Yoga consists of methods of meditation to get our minds clear of thoughts, to enter in the frame of mind when we are complete aware of WHAT IS. Let's now hear Alan Watts which has a throughout introduction to Yoga.




"The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend a personal God and avoid dogmas and theology. Covering both the natural and spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things, natural and spiritual and a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description. If there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism." - 1945, from "Albert Einstein: The Human Side", edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffmanm Princeton University Press
