Out of all the chakras, the sacral chakra is perhaps the most fundamental to basic human desire after survival. Everyone wants to be happy right? and sex is a basic need. Looking for pleasure, peace, relaxation, bliss, personal love?. These are all the domain of the second chakra. When the energy here becomes distorted, there is an obsession with sexual and erotic experiences, devoid of love, just pure gratification. That can be fun in the beginning, but become addicted to this kind of behaviour and you become jaded or like a sexual vampire. When this chakra is weak or in negative state you are in a constant state of unhappiness and lack of well being where no matter what you do, you can't feel good.

For those yogi's who draw up the kundalini to this chakra, they sit in their caves immersed in the most exquisite bliss, that satisfies their wildest desires beyond their dreams or imagination. With this kind of bliss why should they move an inch to do anything in the world, they are beyond all human need or want.

Suffice to say, looking after this chakra, keeping it positive and balanced, has immense rewards. Sexual fulfillment, happiness and bliss, should be companions to every person on their journey here on Earth. No one should be without it. This chakra also determines our emotional and sensual relationships with others. So the energy of others and our emotional attachments can either positively or adversely affect the energy of this centre. Spending time clearing and balancing this centre can have a dramatic effect on our emotional well being and happiness. A healthy sacral chakra will attract positive emotional relationships into our lives.

Of course each chakra is important and needs to be balanced for holistic spiritual development. Yet to have an endless well of ever flowing happiness within us that is reflected in our relationships and emotions is one of the greatest treasures a human being can have. Svadhisthana is the key to this treasure. Take good care of her.
