The ancient Vedic wisdom emphasized on the connection between physical, mental and spiritual health in human beings. This connection between body, mind and spirit is enabled by the cosmic energy centers in the body. These energy centers are called Chakras. The Sanskrit word ‘chakra’ means ‘wheel’ or a ‘disc’. One can visualize Chakras as spinning vortexes or wheels of cosmic energy, where matter meets life force or prana.
Our body has seven major Chakras & Hrit Padma Chakra that counts as the 8th chakra, the specific positions of which along our body correspond to extensive nerve centers and major endocrine glands. These eight Chakras are positioned along the spine, from base of the spine to the top of the head. These subtle energy centers absorb and distribute life energy or prana throughout the body so that there is an appropriate energy flow to all body parts and vital organs. Thus they control the functioning of specific organs in the body and are in turn governed by expressions, feelings and senses, including the sixth sense.
Your chakras become blocked as you go through life’s experiences and challenges on your path to discovering your true self. When the chakras become blocked, the free flow of cosmic energy to the organs is hampered, resulting in emotional and physical imbalances. They must be let go of in order for the chakras to open. Chakra therapy can assist you in releasing negative energy/beliefs that aren’t serving your best interests. This broadens your perspective and assists you in making changes for improved health, relationships, and personal and financial well-being.
Every chakra is a door that can be opened to gain more dynamic, psychic, and sacred knowledge that essentially encompasses spiritual laws that govern this life. This helps achieve greater harmony, abundance, success, happiness, and wellbeing in our lives and in the world.
When life energy flows freely through the chakras you take better care of yourself. It brings you self-confidence and helps you express your feelings, thoughts and expectations and become a creator of your dreams.
There is nothing mysterious about the ways in which the chakras function. If you have the desire, the orientation, and the sincerity of unraveling the universe of the chakras, it will be bestowed upon you. You can achieve the knowledge of the chakras in this life and learn how you ought to live your life on this earth and realize your wholeness and ultimately achieve liberation.
There are numerous methods for working with your chakras. All healing modalities, including Rudraksha, crystals, meditation, mantra and sound therapy, color and aroma therapy and energy healing work on chakras.
Chakras become blocked as a result of stress, either physically or mentally. Personal habits such as poor physical alignment or posture, eating unhealthy foods, or engaging in self-destructive behavior can all contribute to chakra imbalance. The individual suffers from physical and emotional imbalance as a result of this blockage.

Chakras are immaterial energy centers. They are located along the Sushumna Nadi, our main energy channel. Each Chakra is represented with a certain vibration, expressed in colors. The more subtle and sublime the energy becomes as you progress up the Chakra system. It progresses from worldly characteristics to more mental and spiritual qualities.
Every major Chakra has a so-called Bija Mantra associated with it. Bija is a Sanskrit term that means “seed.” Bija, seed Mantras are extremely powerful and contain the full potential of the associated Chakras. They can be spoken aloud or mentally chanted to activate and balance the energy centers.
Each Chakra is connected to specific glands, which produce hormones that influence and guide our behavior through emotions and physiological processes.
- Root Chakra – Governs the Adrenal glands which regulate your metabolism, immune system and response to stress.
- Sacral chakra – Governs the Gonadal glands (testes in men; ovaries in women); that controls sexual development and secretes sex hormones.
- Solar Plexus chakra – Governs the Pancreas which produces substances (enzymes) that help with digestion.
- Heart chakra – Governs the Thymus gland which regulates the immune system.
- Throat chakra – Governs the Thyroid gland which regulates the body’s metabolic rate controlling heart, muscle and digestive function, brain development and bone maintenance.
- Third Eye chakra – Governs the Pineal gland that produces melatonin, which aids in the maintenance of circadian rhythms and the regulation of reproductive hormones. The pineal gland produces hormones and regulates the function of the previous five glands; it is sometimes linked to both the third eye chakra and the crown chakra.
- Crown chakra – Governs Pituitary gland that regulates metabolism, growth, sexual maturation, reproduction, blood pressure, and a variety of other vital physical functions and processes.
Each chakra control specific organs in the body. When these chakras are imbalanced it affects those organs and various diseases are caused. The below table shows the attributes and organs governed by each chakra and the diseases caused due to blockage.

In a typical RRST session, the expert has a one-on-one conversation with the client during which the problems are discussed, the root cause of the problems is identified, and the client’s chakras are examined. Counselling identifies subconscious patterns deeply ingrained in our behavior as fears and old habits, experiences, beliefs and other causes that are restricting our energy centers and limiting our lives by causing a malfunctioning of these vital energy centers. Then the expert suggests specific Rudraksha and Gemstone combinations which would balance the blocked Chakras. Rudraksha when worn as per Rudraksha Ratna Science Therapy (RRST) clears away any disturbance in the chakras by energetic resonance between certain types of beads or mukhis and their respective corresponding chakras. On the other hand, gemstones work by aligning these energy centers by absorbing and reflecting different frequencies of light as the sun rays passing through a gemstone make it emit a cosmic color that radiates into the chakras.
Over 20,000 testimonials from people from all walks of life have showed that this therapy promotes success in business, career, education, and interpersonal relationships.
- Consult an RRST expert who will identify your blocked chakras and recommend an RRST combination, that will be specific for opening that blocked Chakra.
- Wear the combination 24×7 firmly against your skin. The combinations are in form of spiritual jewelry that you can wear as pendants, bracelets, or rings. Wear the RRST recommendation exactly the way told by the RRST expert, be it correct fingers for rings and body positions for pendants and bracelets.
- You may remove the Rudraksha before bath to prevent soap, talcum powder or other chemicals going into the beads.
- To clean your Rudraksha, soak every month in lukewarm water for up to 10 hours, scrub with plastic brush, dry under fan and apply lightly perfumed oil with a brush.
- When first worn, the RRST combination might take 8-10 days to align with your body. You will notice release of stress and general easing of pain related to the chakras whose combination is worn.
- Do Chakra meditation and beej mantra chanting specific for the blocked Chakra, and align your mind to the positive energies around you.
