Are chakra`s ethereal or biological?

[Papa Bear]

I wonder at the human association to the biology of chakric experience and how it may create the impression that chakra`s are part of our human biology, while my understanding identifies them as being ethereal. Which is why I ask the question, what do you think?

Energetic, but that and physical are one and the same. The layers touch each other.

Hi perfect earth, are those `energies` material to be associated with their biological counterpart? As the ethereal resonances are not which is why I seek to discuss that differentiation. Material energy sources have a recognizable formation in physics, so may be defined, where the ethereal resonances cannot. The interconnectivity of ethereal and biological natures is inseparable, but their energy resonances are resonating in two differing vibrations of existence, one within the material spectrum of energy resonances (the physical), the other within etheric resonance frequencies, the ethereal vibration. Thank you for your reflection.

Hi Papa Bear hmmm interesting question indeed, I am guessing that the parts of our bodies they flow through are definitely biological (hoho you can tell I'm not good at this), but the chi itself is ethereal...?

Hi Sybilline, that’s not so much a guess as an intuitive recognition, as Chi, or Prana (from the Hindu Vedanta), Lüng (in Tibetan Buddhism) or the Vital energy or life force of western translation, all associate to the ethereal aspects of chakra`s. We tend to focus more on the biological references of how chakric energies influence and flow through the physical form, but less on the origins of `where the chakra`s are. Which is why I am interested in highlighting the `subtle` ethereal body which produces the chakra`s themselves, and the Spiritual significance of that referencing. Thank you for your consideration.

The Chakras are etherical but they are joined to the physical body on the spine and closely associated with the gland system.

Hi Chrysaetos, our experiences reflect a varied understanding of what exists, but that is the nature of individual evolution. Thank you for your thoughts.

Ah, the ''you don't have the experience and are a lesser being'' argument.. What would happen if I used that ''evolve'' argument to poke people who believe in strange things?

Imagination and visualization can make a believer of you, I too once believed in these things. Chakras however are a modern commercialized belief and are a cozy 'spiritual' representation of important body parts.

That is a very competitive translation of a respectful observation of how or why we may have reached a differing view.

What we choose to believe is a uniquely individual decision; your experience seems to explain why you have reached your own conclusions, and that is understandable.

But with respect, during the past thirty five years I have flowed with ethereal energies in a varied and multifaceted manner, and have evolved an understanding of how and why the nature of chakric sensitivities influence and harmonize a Spiritual and biological balance naturally.

Not because of visualisation, imagination or commercialization, but rather from within my own self discovered experiences, which is why I respectfully suggested why our evolutions which lead to our differing reflections may define the difference in translation.

I did not have the experience before I discovered it, and do not regard myself at that time as being a lesser being than I am now, so I have no reason to consider any other as such. My understanding reflects the nature of chakra`s and their ethereal reflections as being universal, so whether we recognize their existence or influence or not, they remain a natural extension of all our natures. And that is why I seek to reflect such in open conversation and discussion.
