Internet is full of interpretations how the
phrases of the Lord's Prayer relate to seven chakras of man. And they all link phrases
to different chakras! However, I have found them all inconsistent – they may jump
from chakra to chakra without any apparent logic, or the connection to certain chakra seems not so evident to me. So, here I present result of my own
reflection. It is extremely simple: it goes phrase by phrase from the top to
the bottom and back, until reaching the heart centre. (Doxology – “For Thine is…” - is not part of the original Prayer, but you may certainly
connect it with three upper chakras.)
With collected information on each chakra, you
can judge by yourself how well they match. For comparison, I have added few
links of other interpretations mentioned above. Practical test is to visualize white light
coming through your body from above, from crown chakra to root chakra and back
again, as you say the prayer, and FEEL IT.
CROWN CHAKRA
1. Our Father
Our spiritual connection to the energy field of
the universe and the source of all knowledge. Through that we experience total
emptiness, liberation from the limitations of mind and matter, receive cosmic
energy, and believe in life in its purest form.
“The universe is in me and I am in the
universe. I am unity and peace.”
THIRD EYE CHAKRA
2. Which art in heaven
This chakra is our spiritual eye. Open up that
eye, and look into your mind. Open it up to the world and see it with spiritual
eye. This chakra represents conscious sense of existence, power of mind,
seeking for truth, and intuition or energy before thought. Intuition is
receiving and knowing, inner sight before concrete evidence. Emotional
intelligence includes the power of imagination; what you can receive and
imagine, that you can achieve. To seek for truth; to experience the balance of mind;
to see the truth and divine perfection in all things; to purify the
subconscious, so that you can listen to your intuition more clearly.
“I am the clarity and wideness. My visions are
clear and bright. I trust my intuition.”
THROAT CHAKRA
3. Hallowed be Thy name
Sing the wordless sound. Express all your
feelings by your voice. Feel the beauty and harmony in you. Let it flow through
you to the world. Communication; self-expression; creativity through voice;
will power. It includes listening and speaking out your own truth, taking responsibility
of your own feelings and ability to unite the heart and mind.
“I am tranquillity and lucidity. I am freedom
and power. I manifest the truth. I am the truth. I experience and see beauty in
everything.”
HEART CHAKRA
4. Thy Kingdom come
10. But deliver us from evil
Open up your heart to love. Radiate love from your heart. Connection with the very core of all existence and gentle embrace of all creation. Genuine compassion and unconditional love are the challenging subjects linked to heart chakra, that evolve and grow through loving and understanding self-approval. Love is the holy power. First cherish yourself and then others. Express caring through action. Release emotional, hidden trauma. Be non-judgmental towards other people. Heart chakra radiates strongly outwards and its radiation heals and transforms other people. It unites upper and lower chakras; its task is to unite with love.
"Love in everything I experience, feel, sense, and create. I am love, and acceptance, and forgiveness."
SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA
5. Thy Will be done
9. And do not lead us into temptation
Personal power, your own will, self-confidence.
This chakra also represents lessons of your ego and positive attitude, acquiring
knowledge and intelligent understanding and sense of humour. Forming of
existence, independent self-esteem and self-knowledge are harmonic action of
this energy centre, beside concentration and focussing. Self-respect,
responsibility of your own decisions and choices; to learn to maintain healthy
limits in regards to other people. This is connected with feelings and thus
astral body and personality of man. Here experiences and feelings are worked
out. With the help of this chakra we may also directly sense vibrations of
other people.
“I appreciate my own skills. I trust in my
abilities. I appreciate and respect. I am power and trust.”
SACRAL CHAKRA
6. In earth, as it is in heaven
8. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors
This chakra controls sexuality, desire and
pleasure. Enjoy and rejoice of the world. It represents joy and sensuality,
vitality, creativity, and ecstatic feelings. Our ability for accomplishment on
emotional level and our relationships reflect the flow of energy of this chakra.
Respecting others; benefiting from creative faculties; self-dedicated, shows
genuine interest in all relationships.
“I rejoice of my own sexuality, to be a
woman/man. I release my fears by confronting them, I am free from fears.”
ROOT CHAKRA
7. Give us this day our daily bread
This chakra is pulsating with bright red colour
of vitality. Vitality glowing red flows from the earth and unites with us.
Basic security, as firm ground under our feet, and survival in life are linked
to this chakra. It is our connection with the physical world, our body, this
planet, and primordial force and energy it brings along. Initiating things,
action and ability to accomplish or finish things reflect the flow of energy in
root chakra. All is one – ground the spirit with your body; accept yourself and
work lovingly on physical level.
“I love earth, I love and accept the present
moment as it is, and I know I have power and ability to change it if necessary;
I am safe; I am taken care of.”
