The Seventh Chakra
Each chakra is responsible for the health of a particular section or system of the physical body. The seventh chakra controls the cerebral cortex, head and upper spine.
It's glandular counterpart is the pineal.
The seventh chakra function concerns spiritual connection. It's located at the top of the head and is called the "crown chakra". It's Sanskrit name is "Sahasrara" which means "thousand petaled lotus".
The 7th chakra activation takes place between the ages of 43 to 49 and can be re-learned at a higher octave between the ages of 92 to 98.
The seventh chakra is the power of consciousness.
This is the crowning point of the chakra system. If we manage to open this center during our lives, we have reached the highest state of consciousness one can obtain - where we have actually elevated our consciousness - personal will - through the bodies of the physical (1st to 3rd charkas), emotional (4th chakra), mental (5th), intuitive (6th) and now, finally the causal (7th), Divine Will for our life.
This is the center of enlightenment, alignment with the Universal Self - realizing divine reality in our lives. Until one has opened their crown charka, one views themself in their multiplicity - one is still differentiating themself from the "All". The final step is merging one's energy field with the Universal Energy Field (at this point Kundalini will be activated) through the 7th chakra center.
Whatever we have understood intellectually, and later intuitively up to this point, will reach a whole new level of comprehension when this center is working at full capacity. The awareness given to us by the seventh chakra goes far beyond the knowledge given by the 6th or intiuitive chakra, for here, at the seventh, we are no longer separated from the object of our perception.
In Tantra, the awakening of the crown chakra (the last one to be awakened so the highest level of spiritual perfection) corresponds to the union of "Shakti" (the feminine principle) with "Shiva" (the masculine principle). Once this union is formed it lasts forever.
By achieving this level of consciousness - one goes beyond the state of choosing unconsciously and becomes conscious of the always unchanging eternal present - the Mystery Monitor within - and the connection with all through our personal, Divine Fragment.
Here we are connected with the level of Being which contains all non-manifest forms and characteristics. From here we began our journey into life and to this place we will return at the end of our human personality development. The seventh chakra connects us to our spiritual nature and if we allow it's unfolding, it becomes integrated into our physical life and guides us according to God's Will. We are living God's Will in our life.
The seventh chakra is the source and center - the starting point for the manifestation of all other chakra energies. It is the entry point for the human life-force which pours endlessly into the human energy system from God. This is the force that nourishes and heals the body, mind and spirit. It distributes itself throughout the physical body and the lower six chakras - connecting the entire system at the seventh chakra. It is always present in our physical vehicles - but it must wait patiently for us to do the work of becoming fully conscious.
The purpose of opening and aligning the seventh chakra is to seek direct communion with Spirit. It is where perfection exists in our imperfect state.
The seventh chakra contains the energy that generates devotion, inspired and prophetic thoughts, transcendent ideas, and mystical connection. This is where the counter effects of retrogressive evolution caused by the Lucifer Rebellion, can occur and be re-balanced individual by individual.
In the education of a human soul, true soul advancement takes place through the channeling of divine thought-forms which move an individual soul beyond the consiousness of limitation of being earthbound. The seventh chakra is where we can truly co-create with God and transcend into the promise of a new life while still in the flesh.
The seventh chakra represents a sense of oneness with all creation; transcendence; higher mind. It unites 6th chakra mind, clarity; 5th chakra will; 4th chakra love; 3rd chakra self power; 2nd chakra relationship with others; and 1st chakra tribe.
When the seventh chakra unfolds and opens, any blockages remaining in the other six dissolve and their energies begin to vibrate at their highest possible frequencies. Each chakra then works as a mirror of the Divine Being at it's own particular level, and expresses the highest potential it is capable of. As soon as the crown chakra is completely awakened, it's task of absorbing cosmic energies comes to an end and it begins to radiate energy on it's own accord.
The Harmonious Functioning of the Seventh Chakra (Open)
There are no blockages in the seventh chakra. It can only be developed. Any blockages to reaching seventh stage enlightenment, occur in the other six centers.
Consciousness becomes calm and open and is expressed as communion with the higher self.
The moments of enlightenment leading up to union occur with more frequency until they become a permanent reality. One feels as if they are awakening from a dream. Thoughts of separation from the One and All and from other people, recede. One feels like an empty vessel in which the Divine pours unconditional love without end. This love is then poured into the world via the individual and unique personality and physical vehicle. One translates activation from the Divine into action in one's world.
One begins to realize that matter is nothing but form and thought centered in Divine Consciousness is true reality. All other thought is non-real - only a worldly illusion.
During the years in which one is actively working to open the crown chakra, a whole new depth and insight into wholeness can be developed and experienced directly.
There is a constant feeling of at-one-ment with the Divine Spark that indwells us.
The Characteristics of a mostly Closed Chakra
This chakra center cannot be too opened. As we have seen - up to this point the opening and harmonizing of all the chakras provide us with a great deal of knowledge, experience and skills. Without an open and functioning crown chakra, however, we feel separated from wholeness and abundance and are not completely free of fear.
If the chakras are not able to unfold their complete range of possibilities to our life, the individual energies will not vibrate in complete harmony with the "dance of creation" or with each other. One will feel uncertain and lack full purpose and direction.
If one stays stuck in a life of superficiality and limitation, the higher self of the individual will not fully develop to full capacity during this lifetime.
Seventh Chakra Issues
Seeking a personal spiritual connection can shake one to their very core.
As Carolyn Myss states in "Anatomy of the Spirit"
"In seeking union with the Divine, we are asking to have all physical, psychological, and emotional "illusion" removed from our lives. Once this process of removal begins, we awaken an internal voice of authority in our lives which can throw us into internal turmoil...."

The Seventh Adjutant Mind Spirit - Paper 36 of the Urantia Papers
"The spirit of wisdom - the inherent tendency of all moral creatures towards orderly and progressive evolutionary advancement. This is the highest of the adjutants, the spirit co-ordinator and articulator of the work of all the others. This spirit is the secret of that inborn urge of mind creatures which initiates and maintains the practical and effective program of the ascending scale of existence; that gift of living things which accounts for their inexplicable ability to survive and, in survival, to utilize the co-ordination of all their past experience and present opportunities for the acquisition of all of everything that all of the six mental ministers can mobilize in the mind of the organism concerned. Wisdom is the acme of intellectual performance. Wisdom is the goal of a purely mental and moral existence."
The Seventh Planetary Epoch - Paper 50 of the Urantia Papers
"The era of light and life. This is the flowering of the successive ages of physical security, intellectual expansion, social culture, and spiritual achievement. These human accomplishments are now blended, associated, and co-ordinated in cosmic unity and unselfish service. Within the limitations of finite nature and material endowments there are no bounds set upon the possibilities of evolutionary attainment by the advancing generations who successively live upon these supernal and settled worlds of time and space."
The First Psychic Circle - Paper 110
"The first circle. The Adjuster cannot, ordinarily, speak directly and immediately with you until you attain the first and final circle of progressive mortal achievement. This level represents the highest possible realization of mind-Adjuster relationship in the human experience prior to the liberation of the evolving morontia soul from the habiliments of the material body. Concerning mind, emotions and cosmic insight, this achievement of the first psychic circle is the nearest possible approach of material mind and spirit Adjuster in human experience."
