Living life honestly, fulfilling our duty?

Migrated topic.

I was wondering. We have 7 chakras. Is it our true duty to our true selves to express fully each of our 7 chakras, terminating with the 7'th "crown" chakra in order to have lived a good life to secure a good death?
 
I believe chakras don't matter much when it comes to daily proper living, they are just one spiritual widespread interprentation of human essence. I used to regard them as great explanation, but these days I find it as a rather limited view on our essence and as a "spiritual system".


That is one of the interesting interprentations on chakras functions, it's made alledgedly by lahiri mahasaya and the chart hasn't been well "translated" to this day, but it seems to connect sounds to the chakra points etc.

Personally after all the chakra yoga(kriya yoga that I used to do) and reading about the chakras I've done, I have no interest in chakras anymore for the above reasons.
 
Thanks, Tele.

I guess the answer for most of us that can is to just live as positively and freely as possible. I guess we fulfill our needs automatically throughout life without need to consider since all we are required to do is act on our desires. Perhaps in doing so we keep our chakras highly functioning or whatever..What do you think?
 
Personally I believe being a good person has nothing to do with the chakras. Maybe chakras is just an interprentation made by a stoned yogi thousands of years ago, who really knows. The thing is to listen to your heart.

Ask a question..... 😁
 
Like The Tree of Life in Kabbalah, the chakra "mapping system" it's just a visual interpretation that can be put for many things.

That doesn't mean it's useless...

Fulfilling our duty would be to be free.When I say I free I mean living life by your rules, your concepts and ideas.
Do what you REALLY want.

That is a pretty hard thing to do in society today.
