1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,000
And so in this first part we will tackle the chakra evaluation of the psychosomatic personality model because we have to understand this in parts.

2
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Everything jumbled up will not make any sense.

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:18,000
So I will talk about these parts and how the energy flows and how one thing affects with another.

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
I will give you a brief introduction. So follow this presentation.

5
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Okay.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,000
Hello everybody.

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:31,000
So in this diagram now I am going to be explaining the psychosomatic personality model.

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:45,000
From two perspectives, the chakra model plus the astrology model and how things could tie into one another which we can use in our personality evaluation procedure.

9
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:55,000
That's how this topic of psychosomatic came into picture. Psycho or psyche basically means the mind.

10
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Soma or somatic means the body.

11
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Now it's a very well established science and you can Google this and research it.

12
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:11,000
We all know by now, your mainstream psychology and science knows now, that mind affects the body and body affects the mind.

13
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,000
We are going a lot deeper than that and putting things together.

14
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:22,000
We are putting with how the chakras operate and how astrology ties into this chakra model.

15
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,000
When I speak of astrology, I am speaking of strictly of Vedic astrology.

16
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Okay.

17
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,000
So let's go one by one.

18
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:40,000
And for the purposes of the psychosomatic personality evaluation, I am just considering four chakras as is shown in this human being.

19
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
This human being diagram.

20
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Okay.

21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,000
That's all.

22
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Let's keep it simplistic for now because this is what will be closely tying into the personality evaluation that I carry out as a part of psychosomatic evaluation.

23
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:04,000
There are a lot more chakras of course and a lot more ways you can analyze this and go deeper, even more deeper into the subject matter.

24
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:30,000
But for the purposes of the personality evaluation that I do, I will consider only these four basic core points of how we can regulate, how we can understand, become aware and hopefully make a better sense of our life and carry it forward as understanding personality.

25
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Personality comes from the Greek word persona, which means face or mask.

26
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Well, we are not wearing really masks.

27
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:51,000
We are energetic beings and this is all energetically tied with two very deep sciences of the chakra or the tantric system of the Vedic tradition and the Vedic astrology tradition.

28
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:57,000
And we can tie this in together and that's the attempt here.

29
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,000
How do these things come together?

30
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:09,000
How does astrological understanding of my ascendance, my nakshatras, my stars, where they are placed in the birth chart, etc.

31
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:15,000
And how does my chakra function in the physical body and how does it affect my personality?

32
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Why this is important?

33
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Well, like I said, mind affects the body and body affects the mind.

34
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000
We know this.

35
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000
So this will even go into the physical organs.

36
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000
This will go into the physical aspects.

37
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:40,000
And how your personality and everything as you are born in astrology will dictate how the energy flows between your chakra systems as well as how life energy circulates inside you.

38
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:51,000
What makes you, you, which even dictates what kind of health issues you might have or what kind of propensities you might have and it goes on and on.

39
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,000
It can go into a very deep layer also.

40
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,000
But here in this one, I'm just covering the basics.

41
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:09,000
So first I'll start with the chakra model and what each one stands as the, it stands for many things, but I'll just cover for the purposes of this discussion.

42
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:16,000
I will just cover the essential concept of each chakra.

43
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,000
So let's start with the basic one, the yellow dot at the bottom most, the root chakra.

44
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Now the root chakra stands for security, safety and nurturing.

45
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,000
I just want you to understand and keep this for now.

46
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000
If you want to take screenshots, take screenshots.

47
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000
It's okay.

48
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000
This is a free material.

49
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:45,000
So it stands for safety, security and nurturing.

50
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000
Okay.

51
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Next comes the red dot, which is the naval chakra or the one around your navel, the belly button, that chakra.

52
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:04,000
That stands for identity, a sense of ego belonging.

53
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Okay.

54
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,000
These three things.

55
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Identity, sense of ego, your ego center belongs in the naval center, the knowing.

56
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Okay.

57
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:26,000
Now we'll go to the green center, which is in the middle of your chest, just below the breast bone, just below the breast bone, that slight soft spot.

58
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
That's the heart center.

59
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:38,000
So the heart center has the attributes of empathy, receiving and connection.

60
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Okay.

61
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Now the third eye or the blue dot, which is between your eyebrows, right?

62
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
I put it as a blue dot over there.

63
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:59,000
That center is actually right back in the middle of your forehead, between the eyebrows and where the bridge of the nose meets the eyebrows.

64
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,000
That's spot we are calling the third eye.

65
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
It carries the third eye.

66
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:13,000
It carries the functions of bringing you awareness, clarity and intuition.

67
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,000
So let's go through all of this from top to bottom.

68
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Awareness, clarity, intuition, empathy, receiving and connection.

69
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,000
When I say connection, we can of course interpret it in multiple ways.

70
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Connection, clarity, intuition, empathy, receiving and connection.

71
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:41,000
In multiple ways, connection, heart centered connection, emotional connection, everything is here in this green dot.

72
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,000
And it's physically located in the body, even in the spine.

73
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
These are all spine centers.

74
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,000
And of course awareness and clarity comes into the brain.

75
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
So the red dot, identity, sense of ego belonging.

76
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:06,000
The yellow dot, the first one at the root, it goes in the space between our genitals and the NS.

77
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
That's spot.

78
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:14,000
Sense for security, safety and nurturing.

79
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Now, speaking from a psychosomatic personality model point of view,

80
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:26,000
if I were to tell you that I evaluate personality model based on all of these being integrated,

81
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,000
just imagine the benefits there. Just imagine if your life was sorted out,

82
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:39,000
just in your understanding in all these contexts, on all these points listed here on the screen right now,

83
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,000
that in itself is huge, huge for you.

84
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Increasing your awareness, increasing clarity, increasing intuition, increasing empathy, increasing your receiving,

85
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:55,000
increasing your heart centered connectivity to everything.

86
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Not qualifying it with one thing or another, it's everything.

87
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000
You versus the whole world.

88
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:10,000
The red dot, if you are having increased sense of your identity, increased sense of ego, there's nothing wrong with it.

89
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Increased sense of belonging.

90
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000
If your ego is balanced with belonging, trust me, you will function very well.

91
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:24,000
You will function as a very good ego because ego gets a bad rap because it doesn't have a connectivity.

92
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Remember the green dot connection, connectivity with all things.

93
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:34,000
If you have that higher connectivity, your sense of ego and identity will be powerful.

94
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,000
It will have a sense of belonging.

95
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:45,000
Therefore, if you have security, increased sense of security, increased sense of safety, feeling safe,

96
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:52,000
safe in your body, safe in the earth, safe in the environment, safe in your life, safe with the people you are.

97
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,000
And if you are feeling increased nurturing,

98
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:05,000
nurturing is the word I use because nurturing is all of the things which we look for as a good things in life combined.

99
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:14,000
It may be love, it may be compassion, it may be sense of physical nurturing, emotional nurturing, mental connection with people and things.

100
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,000
All of these come from that yellow dot over there.

101
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:24,000
So in our psychosomatic personality model, I will cover all of this.

102
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:34,000
You can expect increase of all of this and each one of these chakras understand they have a feedback mechanism.

103
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:41,000
One talks to the other right from top going through to the bottom and from the bottom coming to the top.

104
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:49,000
And this is how it looks like the downward movement goes like this.

105
00:09:49,000 --> 00:10:00,000
And I put it like this because in the esoteric text, it is shown as a spiral movement, a spiral, a downward spiral and an upward spiral.

106
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
This is the downward spiral.

107
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Think of it as a spiraling life force energy.

108
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,000
This downward spiraling life force energy, how it shows up practically.

109
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Well, if you have increased awareness, clarity and intuition, it feeds into having increased empathy, receiving in connection, heart centered connection,

110
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:30,000
which in turn feeds into increased identity, sense of ego and belonging, which feeds into increased sense of security, safety and nurturing.

111
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,000
See how the increased feeds into one another.

112
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Now there is an upward movement also to this.

113
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And I will say it in a negative context bear with me.

114
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:55,000
If you have low sense of security, low sense of safety in the world, you're not being really nurtured by anything that will feed into your low sense of self worth, low sense of identity,

115
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000
low sense of belonging in the world.

116
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,000
See follow the upward arrows here.

117
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000
That in turn will feed into you disconnecting from the world.

118
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,000
You're having lower empathy.

119
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,000
You're having low receiving.

120
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,000
You're not getting any abundance in life in any form.

121
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Abundance. I'm not talking about just wealth here.

122
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,000
It may be a sense of receiving love.

123
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:25,000
It may be a sense of receiving compassion, receiving people, receiving good things happen in your life.

124
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,000
The connection will seem to weigh in and disappear.

125
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:35,000
If this negative way travels upward in upward spiral.

126
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:43,000
So if you have low on the green count and as you go forward upward even more, you'll have low awareness.

127
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,000
People cut off their awareness.

128
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,000
They don't want to be aware.

129
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000
They think the world is a dark place.

130
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,000
They don't want to have clarity.

131
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,000
They have very less clarity and spend all their time in confusion.

132
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Then they are very low on intuition.

133
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000
It's also as a result of this.

134
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:06,000
So you see how this upward spiral can be spiral of negativity or positivity.

135
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:13,000
I have just shown you the negative part on the upward and the positive on the downward.

136
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:22,000
But it's a complex mechanism and this life energy as it is flowing is constantly feeding one another in a cycle.

137
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,000
This is the process as told in Tantric tradition.

138
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,000
It keeps a human being in a dynamic state of balance.

139
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
In physics, this is called dynamic balance.

140
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Like every oscillation and this is an oscillation from the top to the bottom.

141
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:45,000
These energetic centers are in a constant state of dynamic calibration meaning.

142
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000
At the same time it is going upward, it is going downward also.

143
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000
It's like a pulsating energy going from up to down, down to up.

144
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:59,000
This is the psychosomatic model which has been discovered by the modern science in some ways.

145
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:13,000
For example, they have discovered that a depressed mind will lead to depressed body functioning, lower immune system, etc.

146
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:21,000
But having positive thoughts, having positive emotions, the blue and green centers, having positive thoughts and emotions.

147
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,000
Thoughts are feeding emotions and emotions are feeding thought.

148
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:29,000
You see that white circle arrow coming down and white arrow going up.

149
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:34,000
Each one is feeding one another, trickling from top down like a waterfall.

150
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:40,000
You can think of energy coming like a waterfall and like an upward draft of air moving up.

151
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:47,000
As the winds move from ground to the upward in the sky, the atmosphere is the upward travel.

152
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,000
It is like the water and air so to speak.

153
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:59,000
It travels constantly, not one after the other, not one before the other, both of them simultaneously.

154
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:06,000
It is a pulsating energy which is constantly in motion and it has only one objective.

155
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:14,000
To keep you in balance means whatever is being shown in one of these dots is being reflected to all of them.

156
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000
It cascades to all of them.

157
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,000
Let's say you have a very high sense of empathy.

158
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:28,000
I will just give you one example here because you can stretch it to any of the work that you are doing also.

159
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,000
Let's say you have a very high sense of empathy.

160
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,000
So the green dot is glowing really high.

161
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:39,000
That feeds into the upper one and the lower one as you can see.

162
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:47,000
So you may have increased awareness and increased sense of belonging, increased sense of identity.

163
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:55,000
And that increased awareness, identity in turn will trickle down to other two centers, to the red dot and to the yellow dot.

164
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,000
It will come right up to your sense of safety and security and nurturing.

165
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
You may feel more nurtured as a result of having empathy.

166
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Your sense of empathy itself is nurturing you, for example.

167
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Okay.

168
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,000
So I think I'm kind of shooting up on time.

169
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:20,000
So I will capture the astrology in the next model as a part two.

170
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Take care, be safe, be awesome, and goodbye.
