Thankyou, Melissa, for sharing your story. Your description of the
chakra is very elegant. I dunno much about panic attacks.. I think I have
only ever had one, or two, and it was K-fired with hyperventiation.
I call it the "power chakra". Sanskrit terms don't stick in my head very
well..:)
I find that it's primary issue is that of free will vs Divine will.. and
it's power is the Breath of Life, and Tummo Fire. The color is yellow-gold.
Worries are Free Will in action, faith requires surrender. Te best way to
feed this chakra, is to breathe into your belly, expanding the lower part
of your ribs and counting your blessings.
Tummo fire is an amazing effect.. the little triangle under my ribs at my
diaphragm is usually the warmest spot on my body, and when I am
empathically clearing karma from someone else, it throbs along with my
heart chakra and heats up even more.. after some sessions it feels hot
enough to fry an egg... but caution is advised when seeking to spark the
inner fire, because it is also possibly related to spontaneous human
combustion.. yoikes.
The opposite of free will fear is gratitude for what Is.. we cannot see
all the ripples from any action, to know what is truly good or bad luck.
>From the darkest clouds can spring the brightest silver linings. Offering
gratitude for the yucky stuff changes it's nature, by altering
perceptions.. gratitude is the opposite of resistance, and it is resistance
that is at the root of much of the difficulties of K. When it is too scary
to get to the place of surrender, get there with baby steps by counting
your blessings.. focusing on the glass half-full, instead of the glass
half-empty. The simplest mantra to give you a lift is "thankyou, my
unconscious", repeated with genuine feeling. Unconscious seldom is thanked,
more often treated with suspicion as a dark place full of dragons..
offering it gratitude will charge you up!
In the meantime, here is something I find useful to meditate on, when
dealing with power chakra issues.. It is a Sufi tale, I think.. I first
heard it in a personal development course.. I rewrote it from memory,
another time when this issue came up on the list..
a story.
