Hara Shakti

The Hara Shakti is the life force energy generated in the Manipura chakra, governing immunity and vitality. A strong Hara Shakti fortifies the immune system and fights all illnesses, acting as a protective warrior against invading infections. When this energy is weak, immunity declines and profound fatigue sets in, indicating improper chakra function. A specific exercise is offered to strengthen this force. Practicing it ten rounds, three times daily, will produce a significant change in the body's energy and resilience. This practice is the direct means to cultivate this essential guardian power.

"The Hara Shakti fights against all illnesses."

"When hara shakti is insufficient, immunity is not enough, and you will feel very tired."

The energy generated and located in the Maṇipūra cakra is called hara śakti. This is the life force, the energy that keeps you moving. If the hara śakti is weak, the immune system declines. Conversely, if the hara śakti is strong, the immune system develops well. This hara-śakti or hara-prāṇa fights against all illnesses. When any foreign body enters, the Hara Shakti helps our body to reject that invader. This includes what we call infections. These are also strangers. When such infections enter the body, Hara Śakti is capable of fighting against and destroying them. It is like a guard or a warrior protecting the border, jako strážce hranic. When hara shakti is insufficient, immunity is not enough, and you will feel very tired. We have developed a special exercise called Khatu Pranam. This exercise will help you to improve your hara-śakti, and thereby your immunity. Some people feel very tired always. This indicates that the Maṇipūra cakra does not function properly. Therefore, we have katuprāṇam. You shall make an experiment during your stay here, collectively or individually. Perform ten rounds, three times a day, anywhere you can do it, and you will realize a great change in your body.
