Kartikey wanted to control his root chakra at a very extreme point, so he was trying to know where he could learn about what the seven chakras are, so he committed to a meeting of all seven continents where he could learn about the 7 chakras with each of the 7 continents' people.
Rishabh came to the room of Kartikey by saying that he wanted to tell him about the 7-chakra system, but Kartikey wanted to know about the 12th August system, so he first refused to reserve to know about the 7th August system, but then he tried to make Kartikey know about the 7-chakra system because the 12th system has the same point, but we have five other chakras, but for conquering that other system, you should know about the 7-chakra system. He wanted to tell him about all seven chakra systems, but he can only help Kartikey to conquer the root chakra, also known as the muladhar chakra.
Rishabh started to explain about the muladhar chakra, or root chakra, route of existence. "Molar" means root, and "dhara" means flux. The root chakra is one of the seven primary chakras; according to Hindu tradition, it is symbolized by a lotus with four petals and the colors pink or red. The solar chakra has four petals bearing the Sanskrit letters v, 's, 's, and sa. The center symbolizes Islam, and the tatva of earth is represented by a yellow square muladhar chakra.
Muladhara is said to be located near the coccygeal plexus beneath the sacrum [1], while its kshetram, or superficial activation point, is located between the perineum and the coccyx or the pelvic bone. Muladhara is said to be the base from which the three main psychic channels, or nadis, emerge: the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna. [2] The deity associated with Muladhara (root) chakra is Lord Ganesh. In the highest revered prayer for Ganapati (Ganesh), the Ganapati Atharvashirsha, it is mentioned that "one who worships Lord Ganapati would easily grasp the concept and realize Brahman."
Appearance
edit
It is symbolized by a red, four-petaled lotus with a yellow square at its center. Each petal has one of the Sanskrit syllables वं vaṃ, शं śaṃ, षं ṣaṃ, and सं saṃ written on it in gold, representing the four vrittis: greatest joy, natural pleasure, delight in controlling passion, and blissfulness in concentration. Alternatively, they may represent dharma (psycho-spiritual longing), artha (psychic longing), kama (physical longing), and moksha (longing for spiritual liberation). [3] Eight spears point out of the sides and corners of the square.
The deity Indra is associated with Muladhara. In these depictions, he is yellow, four-armed, and holds a vajra and a blue lotus in his hands. [clarification needed] He is mounted upon the white elephant Airavata, who has seven trunks denoting the seven elements necessary for supporting life. Occasionally, Ganesha is also associated with Muladhara. In these depictions, he has orange skin, wears a yellow dhoti, and has a green silk scarf draped around his shoulders. In three hands he holds a laddu, a lotus flower, and a hatchet, and the fourth is raised in the mudra of dispelling fear.
Seed mantra
edit
The seed mantra syllable is लं (laṃ) [4]. Within the bindu, the point that forms a part of the letter, is Brahma. He is deep red, with four faces and four arms, holding a staff, a sacred vase of nectar, and a japa mala, and making the gesture of dispelling fear. Alternatively, instead of the staff and japa mala, he may hold a lotus flower and the sacred scriptures. He is seated on a swan. The goddess Dakini, his shakti, is depicted with him. She is beautiful, with three eyes and four arms. Dakini is usually depicted with red or white skin, holding a trident, a skull-topped staff, a swan, and a drinking vessel, and is seated on a swan. At times, instead of a swan and drinking vessel, she holds a sword and a shield.
Seat of kundalini
edit
In the center of the square, below the seed syllable, is a deep red inverted triangle. The kundalini shakti is said to sleep here, waiting to be aroused and brought back up to Brahman, the source from which it originated. It is represented by a snake wrapped three and a half times around a smoky grey lingam.
Muladhara is considered the foundation of the "energy body." Yogic systems stress the importance of stabilizing this chakra. [5] Kundalini awakening begins here. It is also known as the seat of the "red bindu," or subtle drop, which rises up to the "white bindu" in the head to unite the feminine and masculine energies, the Shakti and Shiva. [6]
It is associated with the element of earth. An imbalanced root chakra can manifest in various ways. Physically, people might experience lower back pain, fatigue, or digestive issues. Emotionally, they may feel anxious, fearful, or disconnected. Understanding these symptoms is crucial for recognizing when root chakra needs attention. [7]
"By meditating thus on Her who shines within the Muladhara Chakra, with the luster of ten million suns, a man becomes lord of speech and king among men and an adept in all kinds of learning. He becomes ever free from all diseases, and his inmost spirit becomes full of great gladness. Pure of disposition by his deep and musical words, he serves the foremost of the Devas."
In Kundalini yoga there are various yogic practices held to incite the energy in Muladhara: asanas (such as Garudasana, Shashankasana, Balasana, and Siddhasana); nosetip gazing, or Nasikagra Drishti; specific pranayamas; and most importantly, the practice of Mula Bandha, involving the contraction of the perineum, which awakens kundalini and is important for the retention of semen.
This chakra can also be activated by chanting the seed mantra. It is said that one who chants the seed mantra of the Muladhara Chakra for more than 100,000,000 times can attain all the Siddhis of the Muladhara Chakra. [citation needed]
There are also special meditation practices for awakening the Mūlādhāra Chakra. [9]

This is to stop the lecture on the root chakra, muladhara chakra, and now Kartikey is amazed about knowing about the chakra of power. Now he wants to practice the root chakra system, but first he wants to know about all the chakras, which will be explained in four days.
