Student Question: When you are sublimating the lower chakras, specifically from one to seven, what exactly are you purifying?
“That’s the core of the ego,” explains Shunyamurti, the founder of the Sat Yoga Institute in Costa Rica. The ego fears “that it doesn’t really exist, that it’s just a mass of fragmented emotions,” which is reminiscent of the baby’s experience before it gains motor skills. “So chakra one contains that ultimate fear of helplessness.” And that feeling of helplessness is absolutely terrifying. “And so when you get into that core of anxiety, and surrender, even that, to the Supreme Reality, and you can witness it without fear, without anxiety—without needing a body, whether in it’s in good condition or in completely dysfunctional condition—then that surrender allows one to rise to the ultimate bliss.” Recorded on the evening of Thursday, August 5, 2010.
