How to purify and stimulate blocked chakras

Here is a powerful preliminary technique, used by Ancient Sages. 

It's called the "Diamond Smile". Its main purpose is to help you, first of all, to become physically aware of your chakras. It has two separate parts and is intended to initiate the chakra-opening process: the first stage relates to focusing the attention. One basic freedom that everyone possesses, is the freedom to choose where we turn our attention. Whether it is focused internally on a sensation or externally on a perception, or even on an imaginary place, the fact of concentrating the mind on something has the effect of drawing energy towards it. 

A chakra is like a bud. To open, it needs energy. You can use attention to attract energy to where it is needed. If you direct your attention towards the position of a chakra, and hold it there in a focused but relaxed way for 30 - 60 seconds, the chakra will start to "move".

Try the following preliminary experiment. 

Find the approximate position of the Ajna Chakra (the third eye): roughly the width of two fingers above the nose, between the eyebrows. Touch this spot with your index finger to start to draw your attention to this area. Focus your mind on it for 30 seconds. Don't allow anything to distract you, but remain calm at the same time. Stop and observe the effect produced. Do you detect a new sensation in this area? Can you feel a throbbing, an itch, a warmth, a trembling, or do you feel nothing at all? 

Don't try to anticipate the experience: to start with, you can't really tell what you are going to feel. You just need to accept any sensation that occurs, without showing too much excitement or insufficient interest. If you don't feel anything, try the experiment again for another 30 seconds. Don't expect anything extraordinary - when a chakra starts to open, it's a subtle experience. I would advise you to work for a short period, to observe the effects, and then repeat the process. Little by little your sensitivity will sharpen, and then you'll be able to prolong the experiment to five minutes. 

Remember that attention is a tool: it attracts energy to where it is needed… and at the same time, increases your awareness of sensations in the area concerned. Also, the more you relax, the greater will be the volume of free energy that can be drawn towards the point where your mind is fixed. But regardless of what you feel, the main objective is to direct energy towards the chakra bud, so that it can start to move and finally open, "petal by petal". 

The second part of this technique is called conscious breathing. This is a "generic" breathing which combines sensations, emotions and understanding in a conscious action. The objective is to increase the amount of universal cosmic energy that can be extracted from the surrounding atmosphere and to intensify it. 

Begin by breathing in through the nose, as though you were joyfully smelling a rose, with an awareness and understanding of your desire and your need to absorb the energy contained in the fragrance of the rose and in the air. Hold your breath, as though you were savouring the bouquet of a delicate wine - be relaxed and let the sensation spread through your whole body. Then let your breath out, releasing at the same time all your tension and negative emotions, allowing them to flow out of your body along with your breath. 

Pause until you feel the need, physiologically and psychologically, to start the breathing cycle again. Try this for a few minutes, until the process starts to feel quite natural. This kind of conscious breathing is used as an energising and purifying process, each complete respiratory cycle representing a concrete step towards a better inner state. You can combine this exercise with focusing your attention on the chakra "bud" that you want to purify, which will boost the process of opening this chakra. First, concentrate on the position of the particular chakra (Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, etc…) towards which you need to attract energy. 

Use the third eye as your starting point, then touch the place of the chakra concerned with your fingertips. Next, start the conscious breathing. Most of the energy sucked in with your breath will flow to the point where your attention is focused. As you hold your breath and relax, the energy will be able to grow and penetrate more deeply. As you breathe again, you eliminate obstacles and resistances, leaving the energy a bit more freedom to work. This technique is not dangerous at all. The most important thing is to be aware of each stage you are performing, and to remember your aim: the opening of your chakras. 

IMPORTANT: Practise the "Diamond Smile" technique, a few minutes every day, for twelve consecutive days. You can do it in the morning or the evening, as you prefer, but be sure to leave a big enough gap after a meal (in fact, the digestion process "absorbs" lots of energy, and this tends to hinder the opening of the chakras). Once all your energy centres have been sufficiently "cleansed" in this way, we will be able to work together so that you can receive the "Miracle of the Sacred Fire" (I'll come back to this specific point later…).
