The Antakarana symbol will also bring to balance any imbalanced energy that has collected on objects such as jewelry or crystals by placing the object between two symbols. The energetic effects of the Antahkarana have been confirmed over and over by the improved results noted by those using the symbol and by clairvoyant observation by those trained in sensing changes in the aura and chakras.
Clairvoyants and mystics, both past and present, describe the Antahkarana as a part of the connection between the physical brain and the Higher Self. It is this connection that must heal and develop if we are to grow spiritually.
The Antakarana is also multi-dimensional. From one perspective it appears to be two dimensional, being made-up of three sevens on a flat surface. The three sevens represent the seven chakras, the seven colors and the seven tones of the musical scale.
From another perspective this symbol appears as a three dimensional cube. Its energy moves up from two to three dimensions that can be seen and continues up through unseen dimensions all the way to the highest dimension - the dimension of the Higher-Self.
The Tibetan meditation practice that used the Antahkarana took place in a room lit with candles. In the middle of the room was a large earthenware vessel shaped in an oval which symbolized the cosmic egg of the universe. The vessel was filled with several inches of water and in the middle was a stool. On the seat of the stool, inlaid in silver was the Antahkarana symbol. One wall was covered with copper that was polished to a mirror finish. Tapestries which displayed symbols similar to the symbols used in Reiki were hung on the opposite wall. A Tibetan Lama meditator would sit on the stool and gaze steadily at the image of one of the Reiki-like symbols reflected in the polished copper mirror. This yantra meditation would create a single point in the mind of the meditator, uniting the consciousness with the transcendental energies of the symbol reflected on the polished copper while the Antahkarana symbol on the stool would focus the energies generated and cause them to evenly flow through all the chakras and to connect with Earth.
It is clear that the Tibetans did not originate the symbol and there is no written record as to its true origin. However, through clairvoyant perception the symbol was first given to the people of Earth during Lemurian times over 100,000 years ago. Current clairvoyants and mystics say that the Antahkarana was created by a counsel of Ascended Masters who are watching over the evolution of the Galaxy. They also say that the people of Earth were in trouble and needed help in re-establishing their connection with the Higher Self. It is said that the Ascended Masters created the symbol and using a decree, imbued it with its own consciousness. Now anyone who uses it will have the connection between the physical brain and the Higher Self strengthened. It is the Higher Self that creates and guides the benefits of the symbol and that is why it can never be used for harm.
Directions for Use
The Antahkarana is a special symbol that has its own consciousness. It is the image of the printed symbol that creates the effect. It works directly with your aura and chakras and varies its healing effect depending on what you need at the time of use. Since it is directed by the Higher Self, it always has a beneficial effect and can never be misused or used to cause harm. The symbols can be placed under a massage table, or under the bottom of a chair or you could sit on them. They can also be placed on the wall or they can be held against your body with the print facing the area that needs healing.
Use in Meditation
You can meditate directly on the Antahkarana by gazing steadily at it with your eyes relaxed, gently brushing away any thoughts that may come up. With continued practice the image may begin to shift and change or to fade in and out, or it may disappear completely. This is good because it indicates you have entered a deeper level of meditation and are receiving greater benefit. Do not allow this to disturb you. Continue your steady relaxed gaze. You may even begin to see pictures in front of the image that are very pleasant and relaxing. A single meditation with the symbol will be beneficial during times of stress; however, regular use is best. Setting aside 10 to 30 minutes each day for meditation on the Antahkarana works well. The value you receive will develop along with your mental clarity and a sense of peace and security will stay with you throughout the day.
Uses of Each Symbol
There are several variations of the symbol. The large single symbol is more female and creates its healing in a gentle way healing the female energies of both men and women. The female symbol is more compassionate energy as well. The smaller single symbol is more male and has more assertive and direct energy. This symbol will focus and penetrate and will heal the male energy of both men and women. Use your intuition in deciding which one to use.
The Cosmic Cross is made of seven symbols crossing each other. This represents the seven major chakras. This symbol will purify your energy and can be used to open the heart. The square multiple symbols, made of sixteen male or female symbols, will break up blocked and congested energy, and get stuck energy moving. This symbol can also scatter your energy so it is recommended that you follow its use with the single male symbol to create centering and grounding. Use your intuition to determine if the female or male Cosmic Cross is needed.
Experiments
The Antahkarana symbols lend themselves easily to experimentation so allow yourself to be guided to new uses. Some people have silk screened them onto t-shirts; others have placed a small wallet sized image in their shoes (to help them run faster and jump higher). You can also tape a wallet sized image - using surgical tape over a chakra or over an area that is weak or in need of healing and it will immediately strengthen the area.
A Meditation using the Antahkarana Symbol: The Microcosmic Orbit Meditation
Place the Antahkarana symbol under the feet when doing this meditation. It is a modified form of the Taoist Microcosmic Orbit meditation. The microcosmic orbit is the circular pathway of energetic flow in the body, also known as the ‘Circulation of the Light’. The energetic points can be equated to the major chakras and this meditation is designed to open and clear the chakras, creating a clear pathway for higher frequency energies as they are brought into your system.
It will allow these higher energies to be fully assimilated and prevent problems caused by too much energy in the head or other parts of the body. It will also purify and/or release from your system any negative energy you may have released that were stored within yourself or that you may have attracted. By circulating your energy, lower vibratory energy is released from the chakras and may even be transformed as it passes through them. This happens automatically as you circulate it.
The Microcosmic Orbit Meditation
1. Hold your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Picture the Antahkarana symbol at the Sacral (navel) Chakra and hold your attention there for about 30 seconds to several minutes. Next, move down to the Root Chakra and do the same. Next, proceed down, around and up to the backside of the body to the Root Chakra and do the same. Do this for each chakra point along the spine to the top of the head then down the front of the body on each chakra point ending at the Sacral Chakra. This technique will open and clear each chakra. The energy running through each chakra point and back to the starting point is considered an energy circuit.
2. After opening and clearing the chakras, visualize running white light around this circuit for several minutes or up to half an hour.
The circuit always begins at the Sacral Chakra and then travels down the front and up the spine as this is the natural flow of energy throughout the circuit. The emphasis is on the dynamic flow and circulation of chi energy, so in this meditation the chakras themselves are not of major importance and are considered only energy points within the overall microcosmic orbit. For your convenience, the various Antahkarana symbols are provided in this article. They are very powerful so be aware of their potential when performing healing work on yourself and others.
