In essence, this is Kundalini yoga - the practice of causing psychic energy (kundalini) to flow upward energizing the various chakras along the way.  The technique is very simple and will eventually produce powerful results, but patience is a necessitity.  As each chakra is activated and energized, it is believed that increased psychic and astral abilities will result until at last the crown chakra is reached.  With this, full enlightenment is attained.

 

To practice this chakra meditation, you simply need to concentrate on the chakras, beginning with the root chakra, and moving progressively upwards.  Focus on each center as you visualise them opening and you psychic energy travelling upward from the root chakra, opening and energizing each higher chakra.  Each chakra has certain properties associated with it so this type of visualisation will raise your overall consciousness, promote astrall projection as well as a greater awareness of your spiritual self.

 

It is favourable to get into a daily routine for your meditations.  Ideally 15 to 30 minutes a day is adequate, but find what is best for you.  Being in good physical condition and having flexibility is also helpful.  Diet will also play a vital role.

 

You will know if you are achieving results because you will either feel light tingling vibration or buzzing sensations or a sensation of warmth and possibly a light throbbing in the chakras.
