People in new age scenes seem to think you can “open your chakras” using your intention. They are just like, okay, I’m going to light some incense, focus my attention on my root chakra, relax, see what emotions come up, and then voila, I’ve “opened my root chakra”. It’s like, huh? What? Does nobody know what the actual signs were that someone had literally “opened their root chakra?” Like - mastery over all the elements of nature? Lol. Like, telekinesis, moving objects with your mind? Or how about the “laghima” siddhi - the ability to make your body weightless, basically, flying. Most people will read that and think it is silly, just some fanciful wishful thinking. But it’s really not, it’s a thing and has always been a thing. It’s just that our culture has become so degenerate and confused that we have lost contact with what a human being is and what it is capable of. Therefore I don’t personally think anyone on the planet today has literally opened any chakras at all, much less become “spiritually awakened” - a state of being that is so profound it would fundamentally change how the energy and consciousness of the person connects to reality, and simply being in this persons presence would warp time and space around you, much like the accounts of encountering Jesus or Buddha were talked about. However these days, in modern times you are “awakened” because you know a bunch of conspiracy theories or because you are aware of your emotions or because you eat a certain way? 🤔. Maybe, just maybe, it’s actually about something much much deeper and profound….
