Hi 7he4uthor.

Lots of fascinating points of view regarding chakra. There's so many different ideas about them: how many, which one is what colour, which chakra does what and so on.
I thought I'd contribute what I understand, in case it can be of any help.

Firstly, it is helpful to have a simple concept of what chakras are. As creatures living on the earth's surface, we are continually acting as conduits of energy. We transform cosmic energies flowing down into the earth, and earth energies flowing up into the cosmos. Trees and other plants do this, as do all life forms. Different beings have different numbers of chakras as each life form transforms the energies differently. As humans, each of us thinks and expresses in a unique way, each has has something special to contribute.

So, as we think, behave and express, we create eddies or whirls in the energies flowing through us. These eddies, or vortexes, are what we call chakra. They change the rate at which they spin and the nature and colours of their energy according to our expression.

So the simplest, easiest way to balance and fine tune chakra is to do the best each of us is capable of to live a balanced and generous life. It's automatic: when you develop your expression of kindness, your ability to love is likewise developed and your heart chakra automatically responds. In actual fact, your expression of kindness and the activity of your heart chakra are one. This principle holds true for all the chakra. Use reason to rise above destructive ways of thinking and you automatically fine tune the higher chakra found in the head area. and so on.

Later, when we can confidently see and perceive the chakra with clarity, we may consider making conscious adjustments to the chakra activities. Its a bit like tweaking the carburettor on a high performance engine. First we need to 'tune our engines' by how we live.

Phew! I didn't expect to take so many words. I hope it proves useful.

I agree it is about balancing the chakras energy they are individual in character but they also connected all together, the equivalent could be said of every living being we are all unique in character, but all connected and having a hard time trying to compliment and balance. I have been taught that there are mini chakras in the joints etc and the main ones that are more commonly known, although I agree that there are more that the seven main ones. Hope that kind of makes sense as I sometimes ramble. Love and Light

The chakras are a roadway so to speak. However, I have found that not everyone opens or enlightens from the bottom up. There are many who open from the top down.

The road runs both ways.
