Surely every person, at least once interested in the topic of mysticism and meditation, has heard about the concept of the energy body. This is a very interesting phenomenon, about which you can tell a lot of entertaining. In fact, each person has several energy bodies. They are all interconnected and influence each other.
What is the energy structure of a person? What are the functions and features of these bodies? Well, the topic is interesting, and therefore now it is worth trying to find answers to these questions.
Etheric body
It's worth starting with. After all, it is the lowest and densest layer, if we talk about the subtle energy bodies of a person. In fact, this is a thinner copy of the physical shell. The etheric body has the following functions:
- Maintaining and connecting the physical shell with the energy ones.
- Ensuring the vitality and integrity of the body and all body systems.
- Conducting life energy. Also its subsequent regulation.
- Storage of forces, as well as "pure" life energy.
Could be explained in simpler terms. If everything around is energy, then the notorious ether contains real fire in its purest form.
A person can feel this energy body. He feels the ether as a level of vivacity, immunity, tone, vitality.
Here it is appropriate to recall the energy channels in the human body. It is very easy to draw a parallel with respect to the physical shell. As blood flows through the veins, so energy flows through the channels. It is believed that various reflexes (goosebumps, twitches, spontaneous itching, etc.) are manifestations of the etheric body. It makes itself felt so.
Astral body
It comes right after the broadcast. Usually its thickness varies from 20 to 40 cm. Clairvoyants say that this human energy body looks like a luminous cocoon and resembles the physical one in outline.
He is ruled by the solar plexus chakra known as Manipura. It is she who creates a protective layer and regulates the energy forces of a person. Of course, the astral body performs similar functions. It controls passions, emotions, desires, feelings, desires.
They say that the astral body is given so that a person is firmly entrenched on the emotional level of the universe. It stores positive and negative experiences - joy, happiness, love, discontent, fear, anger. Allthis and many other things seem to be “inscribed” in the cells of the astral energy body of a person under the guise of a kind of “flashes”.
Of course, all this affects the physical shell and the state as a whole. If a person is not in harmony with himself, feels weak, is addicted to bad habits, then his astral body suffers first of all. It becomes thinner, loses its valuable energy. And this cannot but affect the physical body, since everything is interconnected in the human body and mental state.
The same goes for negative emotions. The more negativity passes through the energy channels in the human body, the more his astral shell suffers.
Is there evidence? Of course, and certainly everyone at least once felt it for themselves. There are hundreds of thousands of examples where a person who could not get tired physically, constantly feels incredibly exhausted, sleepy and weak. And the reason in such cases are negative thoughts and constant problems. His condition is a consequence of the weakened energy in the astral body.
In the opposite direction, by the way, this also works. A person who copes with exorbitant physical exertion, but lives with positive emotions and inspiration, always feels cheerful, even if, according to all the laws of reality, he should be exhausted.
Mental body
Next after astral. The mental energy shell of the human body is also often referred to as the mental, intellectual, mental and psychic. It has a close connection with the chakraAnahata.
The functions of this body are unique. Its "nourishment" is mental energy, which takes part in all processes of mental activity without exception. Specifically:
- Formation of thoughts and consciousness.
- Generation of ideas.
- Search for solutions.
- Memorization and subsequent reproduction of information.
- Logical construction of phrases.
The view of the mental body is very interesting. It has a porous structure, a pleasant milky shade. It appears pure and weightless, although it extends 40 centimeters above the physical body.
The energy that fills the space of this body nourishes thoughts and mind, as if predetermining the level of its development, speed and efficiency. If a person does not work on the mental body, then this is reflected in the intellect. His mind is sluggish, he himself cannot quickly respond to emerging situations and effectively solve emerging problems. It is difficult for him to even answer a question right off the bat.
Without development, the mental body becomes weak and soft. In a more understandable language, a person degrades. People who constantly work with ideas don't have this problem. Creative and enterprising individuals have a well-trained mental body.
Causal body
It is also called karmic. This subtle human energy body is egg-shaped, and its center is located in the throat. It contains the causes of all actions, it has no dependence on temporary causes. It is the causal body that stores the memory of previously committed actions, of past lives.and reasons for future actions. In addition, it works in the so-called area of motivation.
Dense karma is encrypted in the causal body - all the specific events of a person's external life, committed actions, as well as distinct experiences experienced by him in the present.
Sometimes it can be very expressive and active. In reality, this manifests itself in the appearance of forebodings, strong experiences, which, according to a person’s feeling, appear as if from nowhere.
If a person has a strong karmic body, it means that in reality he lives under the influence of certain events that happened in the past. Such people are interesting for mediums. Having learned these events, they can be brought to consciousness, interpreting through the subconscious. This is necessary to align the energy flows in the human body. With this method, they can be directed to their natural course.
But a person with a weak karmic shell does not have prophetic dreams and forebodings. But the past does not haunt him either.
Buddhic body
This is, one might say, the highest spiritual intelligence. The energy system of the human body is unique, and people who have managed to realize the truth beyond the intellect and mind have a developed buddhic shell. In other words, those in whom the Consciousness has awakened.
If a person has a developed buddhic body, then the karmic (causal) one simply dissolves along with all the experience it has accumulated, becoming pure light.
This is a unique phenomenon. The buddhic body can be called true. Itremoves the karmic veil, exposing reality. Human consciousness moves to a level where duality (and therefore karma) does not exist.
People with a developed buddhic body are distinguished by self-sacrifice and incredible compassion. It doesn't even matter what this person does. His energy is so strong that only by his presence he contributes to the transformation of the consciousness of other people.
If we talk about the manifestation of the buddhic body at the ordinary level, then we can note the attention to self-improvement and spiritual development. Such a person wants to realize the true "I", to gain spiritual knowledge and strength, to deal with his life. He also has the ability to find solutions through insight, not logic. Such a person has an incredibly strong intuition.
In simple terms, the buddhic body is that which aspires to the highest values. To what is the basis of our existence.
Atmic body
The last of all. If you look at the above photo of human energy bodies, you can see that it is the thinnest. It is hidden from consciousness more than others, but it manifests itself in extreme situations.
Some mediums say that this body visually resembles a golden egg. It is the largest in size. The atmic body covers other bodies like a shell. Its border from the physical outlines of a person is at a distance of approximately 80-100 cm.
In the atmic bodycontains information about the purpose of the individual. Of course, it is not available to humans. However, he can access some ideas. They are quite abstract, and are perceived by the human mind as ideals.
At a high level, the atmic body contains information about the fate of the soul, its ideas and properties. They are formed taking into account the buddhic values developed by previous incarnations.
If a person fulfills his mission, he receives in return the powerful energy of higher forces through the atmic body. She seems to nourish him, endowing him with strength to continue the right path. If the idea that a person is busy with corresponds to the mission, then the Universe gives him the opportunity to do the impossible.
Also, the energy of the atmic body is used for continuous improvement, improvement of one's values, purification of karma from mistakes. However, in becoming a better person, one should avoid the temptations of the material world.
He also has to protect himself from falling under the influence of negative feelings and emotions, self-interest, pride, etc. In such situations, by the way, the atmic force begins to create new energy centers of the human body. They are needed to develop incentives, without which he cannot escape from the captivity of negativity.
Energy Channels
You can see them in the photo below. Energy channels in the human body are also called assemblage points.
Each of us, regardless of gender, has three main channels - pingala (middle), ida (female) and sushumna (male). All of them deserve special attention.
The pingala channel, for example, carries the energy of action, which includes physical and mental activity. He is responsible for clarity of thinking, calmness, peace, prudence. It is believed that all a person's thoughts about the future are in this channel.
The ida channel nourishes the sympathetic nervous system. He is responsible for the past of a person, for his emotional life. The unconscious draws images and information from it. In addition, the ida channel carries the energy of our desires, from which all emotions arise. They are the main action, without their driving force, no one would have the desire to do anything.
The most important quality of the ida channel is to bring joy, which is a sine qua non of the Spirit. Unfortunately, it often fades or is blocked due to the many suffering experienced by a person in his life.
The sushumna channel, being the central one, is formed first at the birth of a person. And all the rest are subordinate to him. In simple terms, it opens up in moments of intense desire gratification, bliss, contemplative presence.
Other energy meridians of the human body
Above it was told about the main channels. But if you believe the Eastern teachings, then there are only 14 of them. And energy moves through them, which, in fact, is the breath of life.
If it circulates correctly, then a person feels he althy on every level - both physically and mentally. But stagnation or excess energy leads to the development of various diseases.
Concentrated on the bodyhuman energy points have been studied since ancient times. They are concentrated on the fingers and toes. Interestingly, energy flows from outside to inside along some meridians, and in the opposite direction along others.
What does this mean? That the human energy system is in constant energy exchange with the environment. If it takes place, then the body is in good he alth. Because in it under such conditions there are bioenergy pluses and minuses, and such potentials are necessary for the flow of energy.
What is needed for such an interaction? Contact of the energy meridians of the human body with the environment. To put it simply, a person's feet and hands should touch natural objects. This is necessary to remove the electrostatic charge and ground the power system.
If at least one channel is blocked, blocked, then the flow will be difficult in the entire channel. The organs will not receive enough energy because of this and, of course, will not work normally.
Energy blocks
They also need to be told in a little more detail. What are the energy points on the human body is clear. The essence of the blocks can also be understood. However, how do they feel and manifest, what causes them?
In fact, even those people who are not used to listening to the signals of their body can feel them. They can characterize them as a feeling, as if “something is not right” with the body. Such states, as a rule, arise at the most important moments in life - when it seemspressure coming from within is completely inappropriate.
Some people literally feel like they are "tied" into a knot. Others experience nausea, pressure fluctuations, dizziness, and loss of balance.
These failures are the result of "clogged" channels. The aura begins to darken, the notorious blocks, energy nodes appear. In their places, the energy is refracted, and sometimes even unfolds.
Because of this, not only physiological diseases begin to develop. A person becomes depressed, experiences negative emotions as if from nowhere. Nothing pleases him and he wants absolutely nothing. The refracted energy performs not a creative function, but a destructive one, starting to slowly destroy a person from the inside.
The emotion that triggers such breakdowns is fear. It leads first to a weakening of energy, and then to a breakdown of the channels through which it moves.
The flows themselves resemble two oncoming streams - ascending and descending. The energy that the body works out leaves its borders. Particularly terrible are those knots that formed at the “exit” from the body. They block waste energy. Finding no way out, she remains in the body and begins to poison it.
This energy is often the cause of many troubles. Illnesses, fears that develop into phobias, failures and disappointments are just a small part of what a person has to face. How can this be prevented?
Cleansing and energy recovery
This needs to be toldseparately. Human energy bodies and their functions have already been studied above. Now it is worth returning to the very first of those mentioned - to the ethereal.
It is very important to clean it regularly and work on it. After all, it is an energy carrier, and its depletion will quickly manifest itself in the physical body.
Appearing blocks and clamps should be immediately identified and neutralized if possible. Because they negatively affect the intensity of energy flows in the human body. Managing them should help restore a he althy flow.
It should be noted that the physical state is also reflected in the state of the etheric body. If a person is pinched, constantly stooped and hunched over, then energy cannot flow freely. Because of this, violations often occur. Also, the pollution of the energy meridians of the human body occurs due to the influence of the following factors:
- Excessive physical exertion.
- Waste of energy, fidgety.
- Mental clamps.
- Stereotypes, complexes, negative attitudes and thoughts.
- Irregular, irregular breathing.
- Negative emotions and desires, emotional clamps.
- Bad diet, dirty water and unhe althy foods.
- The presence of harmful, poisoning habits.
- Idle talk.
- Lack of contact with the sun, fresh air and nature.
The etheric energy body of a person consists of the finest matters, and therefore it is very important not to destroy it, bringing the listed negative factors into life, butstrengthen, strengthen. Contributing to this:
- Tracking blocks and clamps, removing and relaxing them.
- Maintaining a balanced, harmonious, smooth flow of energy.
- Minimizing ongoing stressful situations, bringing the maximum amount of positive into life.
- Maintaining the purity of the mental body. It is important to think correctly, observe sincere attitudes and programs, and abandon stereotypes.
- Cleansing the physical body, visiting saunas and baths.
- Introducing physical activity, yoga and sports.
It is also recommended to follow these guidelines:
- Be in a state of inner peace.
- Meditate, learn to concentrate, contemplate and visualize your attention.
- Do breathing exercises.
- Constantly keep yourself in good shape.
- Drink clean water and eat he althy foods.
- Take a contrast shower, temper in other ways.
- Attend massage sessions.
- Observe the correct daily routine.
- To live in harmony with the world around us and with ourselves.
- Save energy. Do not waste it on unnecessary and unnecessary thoughts, superficial emotions, idle talk and meaningless body movements.
But the most important thing is acceptance and love for yourself. Many people simply do not allow themselves to "take a place in the sun" and become happy. And the path to the removal of energy blocks in the human body and the development of all of the above shells lies primarily throughawareness and readiness for openness.
Positivity is the way to increase energy
And that's a definite fact. A positive attitude is the most powerful source of energy. Many people themselves do not realize how colossal powers they have to generate potential, enthusiasm and energy. All this is given by nature itself. A person only needs to transform what he receives into relationships and activities.
However, there is one caveat - nature gives exactly as much as he is ready to take. And this, in turn, is due to a certain emotional state. A positive mindset, to be exact.
Successful people should be remembered! They all look cheerful, cheerful, positive, active and full of life. The vast majority of people say it's because of the state of their affairs. It's easy to be happy when there is success and money! However, this is a very flat, stereotyped perception. The success of such people is determined precisely by their emotional state. And it comes from the ability to think positively.
And to start living in this way, you only need a desire. Everything in our world depends on them. And if it seems that everything is bad, and life has completely lost its colors, you need to start working on yourself even faster. When everything is bad, negative thinking will not help. So what does a person lose if they change it to a positive one?
