An Herbal Resin Incense Blend with Lotus Oil
Seventh Chakra: Sahasrara Chakra
The abode of God is located on the crown of the head, and it is therefore the only center located outside the physical body, the place to which the Kundalini ascends to meet Shiva, at which the yogi experiences absolute bliss and reaches transcendental conscience. It is called "The lotus of a million petals", or Sahasraradala, because from here proceeds an infinite blossoming of the soul.
While on the relative plane, it is seen that flowering is always followed by decay, the Sahasrara symbolizes that eternal flowering of the consciousness, an infinite expansion which is enlightenment. The level of the Sahasrara is of the soul, the spirit, so that it is the last phase of the process of the evolution of consciousness; it is the border between the human and the divine, between the relative and the absolute. It corresponds to the Absolute Truth, because it represents the transcendence of all duality. Here illusion is abandoned, the kundalini is absorbed, it is here where the awakening to the reality of integration with totality occurs, a fusion of the knower and the known.
The term Shat Chakra only refers to the six basic energetic centers which are found intimately connected in the Sahasrara, while this seventh center is found situated over the six. In reaching the Sahasrara, the evolutionary process in which the individual emerges in the Total is completed, and the personal functions with the universal. In this chakra alone can we speak of enlightenment, since it is a state of complete absence of mental activity. The realization of the seventh chakra is related to the level of purity of the yogi, the grace of the spiritual master and the compassion of the Divine.
