Reiki and The Chakras Chakra: A whirling vortex of energy at the conjunction point of mind and body How can we know the infinite? Not by reason. By entering into a state when you are no longer finite. This is true ecstasy. You cease to be finite and become one with the infinite. A final turning about at the deepest seat of consciousness and the dropping of all attachments is achieved. Pure consciousness is reached, there is no further travel. You merge into Reiki. This is the field of inner life, an exploration of inner experiences, and learning about oneself. It is the inner laboratory for experiments. It is a study of the evolution of consciousness, its centers and its functions. The centers (chakras) are found on the energy body but superimposed on the physical. We are always dealing holistically with the body, physical, emotional, mental and a few beyond as well. All in turn are illuminated by the primal source of consciousness, the universal source of energy : REIKI. Feet - Connection to the planet. Root - Connection to Earth Sacral - Creation and sexuality.
