Vishuddha Chakra | विशुद्ध चक
Vishuddha Chakra/Throat chakra (विशुद्ध चक्र): or throat chakra is the fifth primary chakra according to the Hindu tradition of tantra. The Vishuddha Chakra is located in the vicinity of the Larynx – and is therefore also known as the Throat Chakra/Vishuddha Chakra. It is a centre of physical and spiritual purification. A story from the Puranas clearly illustrates the immense purification power of the Vishuddha Chakra:
The Devas (gods) and Asuras (demons) wanted to raise the treasure Amrita (the nectar of immortality), which was hidden in the depths of the ocean, to the surface. They used Mount Mandar as the stirring stick and the world serpent, Vasuki, as the rope. The gods held the tail of the snake and the demons held its head. In this way they were able to churn the ocean of the world with their combined power. Numerous treasures and precious objects emerged from the ocean and, finally, the longed-for Amrita rose to the surface in a golden vessel.
But the serpent they had used to churn the oceans spat out a deadly poison that was capable of destroying the whole earth. Quickly the Devas caught it in a bowl so it was not able to do any harm. But as they had absolutely no idea what to do with it or how they could permanently “Dispose” of it; they turned to Lord Shiva for help. (Throat chakra)
Lord Shiva is the most gracious of all the gods, and will never refuse a request from anyone. He took the bowl of poison and drank it down to the very last drop. However, in the process he did not swallow the poison but held it in the Vishuddha Chakra and purified it by means of Ujjayi Prayanam and Jalandhara Bandha. In this way he rid the world of a deadly peril. Through the poison his throat was coloured dark blue, and since that day he has borne the nickname Nīlakantha (the blue-throated one).
Vishnu Vishuddha Chakra or throat chakra associated with ‘purification’ or ‘cleansing’ is positioned at the neck near the spine with the activation point in the pit of the throat. The Vishuddha Chakra is primarily linked with communication, sharing the lesson of self-expression and the power of choice.
The vocal chords of an individual with balanced throat chakra show resonance and clarity making it easy to interact. People with an unblocked throat chakra are excellent decision makers and effortlessly follow their dream. Blockage of Vishuddha Chakra results in thyroid disorders, backache and immunity disorders. A person may feel insecure and unable to articulate feelings.
Thyroid Causes and Treatment:
The root cause of thyroid lies in our own communication and relationships in general. In any relationship, how we speak is more important than what we speak. Since we do not realize this fact most of the times, we tend to keep quiet and not open up with truth fearing the other person will be hurt. Communication is all about patience to listen and power to convince. We should always speak what is true because what we speak is not as important as how we speak when it comes to communication. Another fear is the fear of being ridiculed. This stems from low self-esteem. We are inhibited in some way and it becomes a kind of rage caught in throat(Vishuddha Chakra). This is how we eventually suffer from lack of trust in general, insomnia, and thyroid.
Sometimes it can be difficult to know how to communicate with the people around us, especially if you need to discuss something unpleasant or you are unsure whether the person will understand what you say. Did we wonder what could be the underlying cause behind blocked communication? It could be your Vishuddha Chakra that is blocked and is preventing you from communicating freely.
