Foods that Fuel Your Chakras

[zenmaster]

You may affect a heightened sensitivity (conscious relationship) or reorientation to a center by fasting or eating, and that new attention may then cause activity. However, in all cases it was not actually the food/drug, but work in consciousness which the new attention possibly afforded.

So you are saying there is a secondary effect, or side effect. That is fine. Food happened to cause a shift in myself, as it has for many people. Some people use stones for this, some use colors. What you may be more comfortable with is saying that these are "aids".

Colors, sounds, smells, massage, yoga, reiki, psychotherapy, qigong, acupuncture, etc - same thing - recognition of (some aspect of) self through reorientation. Regardless of catalyst used, the chakras will simply reflect the state of one's current balance and conscious orientation (and crown/violet chakra reflecting non-circumstantial orientation from all prior work).
