Energy Systems – what are they?

I have been reading and researching the human energy system for a little while now. It is most interesting to learn that there is so much in us and around us that we cannot see.


(Google)

The knowledge about Chakras is becoming very much mainstream. There is evidence of partial knowledge of this system as well as other human energy systems in the Chinese, Indian and Native American cultures. Ancient Tibetan scriptures report as many as 72,000 energy channels contained with the human body system.

This slowness of people to generally know about the chakras and other human energy systems can be attributed to a number of reasons like:

• the control of information by the Church
• lack of scientific instruments to measure their function
• the reliance of humans upon the observations of psychic insight – they have been far and few in the past couple of centuries.

However, interest has been hotting up over the span of 50 or more years and this can be attributed to:

• Yogananada introducing yoga to the western world in the 1950’s (Autobiography of a Yogi written by Paramahansa Yogananda)
• The invention of EEG (electroencephalaogram), EKG (electrocardiograph) and (SQUID) (superconducting quantum interference device – now measure energy fields and have shown that a dysfunction in the energy field suggests leads to or suggest disease.
• Studies have shown a correlation between wave patterns of alternating electrical currents on the body surface and the colours perceived by 12 different aura readers or persons with psychic insight.

But on the other hand in the non-science world it has been generally seen by many the multiple dimensions of our energy, our growth and spirituality.

• People like Barbara Brennaan who is a scientist healer with psychic insight who practices and writes books. She and other others have developed a rational view of the dimensions of the energy systems and their relationships to our spiritual and healing systems. Barbara Brennan (1993) describes 4 dimensions of energy systems and creative energy systems and their interrelationships –

1. The physical body
2. The aura, including the chakras – the personality that we develop over our incarnations
3. The hara – the foundation for the personality that come form our intentions
4. The core star level – our spiritual core
