The spectrum of fundamental life energies

This exercise is part of Energy exercises & principles

Think how everyone of us is connected to the source of love and energy, God the Creator. Energy from God comes in us on a most internal level, through our love for God. It was also put in us with our conception and creation, because of God's love.

This energy, which we also called Life energy, expresses in us, on the level of the mind and eventually on the level of our spiritual and physical bodies. Our bodies live in the environment of the world of creation. The world of creation is built from the same energy that originates in God. When it reaches us, feeds us and nurtures us, we called these energies 'Life-sustaining energies.' (See Life energies and life-sustaining energies)

Many people are familiar with the concept of chakras. I've written about chakras in former articles in this series.

How can we perceive the process through which energy originating in God disperses into seven main chakras on the next more external level? Energy from God comes in on the most internal or heart level of a human being. This energy expresses into seven fundamental life energies that are managed by seven chakras. Then these energies again merge into the expression of human beings on the body level. The body relates directly to the things of the world of creation.

A good analogy, perhaps more than an analogy, is the comparison with white light that moves through a prism. The picture above shows this. Exactly the same phenomenon can be seen in rainbows. Light from the sun enters another medium. White light is composed of different colors that each have their own characteristic wavelengths and frequencies. All these different colors can be seen as forms of electromagnetic energy. Only some of the wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum are visible. The electromagnetic spectrum extends from low frequencies used for modern radio communication to gamma radiation at the short-wavelength (high-frequency) end, thereby covering wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of an atom.

The separation from originating white light into its components of the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet happens because white light enters the different medium of the prism, or water drops in the case of a rainbow.

When energy originating in God enters a human being, it also disperses in a similar fashion into several fundamental components. The new and more external medium is the level of the mind and the body. When energy of the heart level expresses into the human person, it separates into seven fundamental energies, which correspond to the seven chakras.

In white light, the red component has the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. Violet and blue light have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies.

Chakras are often depicted in the colors of the rainbow, the lowest or root chakra being portrayed in red. The highest chakras, which are connected to higher functions, are portrayed as violet. This shows how these higher chakras are associated with energies of higher vibration and the lower chakras are seen as containing energies of lower vibrations.

Although the energy that comes into us from God is not the same as white light, a similar process as the dispersion of white light takes place when this energy is manifested in the more external levels (mind and body) of a human being. In reality, the colors that can be observed in the chakras of actual people don't have such a nice range of colors as seen in a rainbow.
The names of the seven fundamental life energies are:

1. Original love - Crown chakra
2. Love - Forehead chakra
3. Ether - Throat chakra
4. Air - Heart chakra
5. Fire - Solar chakra
6. Water - Belly chakra
7. Earth - Root chakra.
