Greece and Nabhi Chakra

It is very fortunate and auspicious that we are celebrating the Diwali in Greece, specially in Delfi. It has a very ancient history and as you know Athena resided here. She was the Primordial Mother. ‘Atha’ in Sanskrit means primordial. So this place has been described even in the Puranas as ‘Manipur Dweep’. Manipur is the Nabhi. Also in Sanskrit Manipur means the Nabhi Chakra. So it is described as Manipur Dweep. It is written ‘Manipur-E-Dweepe’.





Just imagine these puranas, these ancient time books and guess how old they are? Must be at least 8000 or may be more and they have described the Manipur Dweep as the place of Nabhi, where resides the Adishakti, that’s the Athena. So, I mean, how it was known to them? May be through torsion area, I would say.





But it is written very clearly and same we find here is the place of Athena, which is in the Nabhi. Also Athena the Primordial Mother, they say, expressed herself first in the sea on the Nabhi itself. From there She did all her work. Now we can say that in her movement, when She came down as existence, She created Shri Ganesha and then She went to the right side and created Maha Saraswati, we can say, the whole Universe, all the creation She created.




And then She came down; came down and settled as Kundalini but coming down She created Maha Laxmi principle which is for our ascent. This was her movement but it is said that She incarnated in the Nabhi because may be after doing all this She incarnated in the Nabhi and also we see that Ganesha’s Kundalini is in the Nabhi.





She incarnated in the Nabhi, they say because the first pure desire of a person, or an animal or anybody is hunger. That is in the Nabhi. And this hunger She wanted to satisfy or to direct or to handle and that might be the reason She might have first come to the Nabhi. Now this Primordial Mother that we have as Athena also has in her hand a Kundalini; also She has one trident. All this is sign that when She was born She knew that She has to fight the evil forces in the Nabhi Chakra.
