The first chakra of Mooladhara chakra Here are two parts with two different functions and areas .
The Sanskrit word MOOLADHARA is made by two other words: MOOLA = root , ADHARA = support . The Mooladhara chakra supports the root which is the spiritual energy called Kundalini . Chakra of Mooladhara
The KUNDALINI is above the chakra.
LOCATION OF THE KUNDALINI
The Kundalini is coiled up, in three coils and a half, in the sacrum bone. the sacrum bone is made up of five fused vertebrae . It is related to the sacral and coccygeal plexus. With the 4 vertebrae of the coccyx which are welded to the sacrum, we get the image of an elephant’s head.
MOOLADHARA CHAKRA LOCATION
The Mooladhara chakra is the start of the left channel, the left sympathetic system of the autonomic nervous system. It is the channel of emotion, desire and the past.
The Mooladhara chakra supplies energy to the lower part of the body. It is the beginning of the Left channel. It corresponds to the plevian plexus or inferior hypogastric.
THE CHAKRA OF MOOLADHARA LOCATION
On the head: It corresponds to Back Agnya at the back of the head.
On the hands: At the base of palms.
On the feet: At the heel on the feet
The first Mooladhara chakra is not in the spine, nor in its axis. The Kundalini dwells in the sacrum bone inside the spinal cord. The word ‘chakra’ means disk. The chakras rotate horizontally at the corresponding plexuses .
In the past, some seekers trying to visualize the Mooladhara Chakra saw part of Shri Ganesha’s trunk in the center of a glowing disc. They mistook it for the Kundalini, which is coiled up on itself like a serpent. It was a mistake to believe that the Kundalini is in the Mooladhara chakra. As the Mooladhara chakra is placed lower than the Kundalini, it does not cross this chakra when it rises. Thus, sexuality is not connected to the raising of the Kundalini.

The Mooladhara chakra has manifested on Earth in many places, through spontaneous creations of nature. It can be mountains or natural sculptures made in the rock. They are called swayambhus, from their Sanskrit name. When one is Realized, one can recognize them by the cool vibrations these swayambhus give off. Here are a few.
DIVINE PRINCIPLE OF MOOLADHARA – LEFT ASPECT
Shri GANESHA represents the eternal innocence that never dies despite our mistakes. He is the warrior child who protects his mother at all costs. It destroys the obstacles that prevent our evolution. It gives us balance physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. He is very deep and mature. Yet he remains light
as a child because his vehicle is a mouse.
As a carbon atom, it is found everywhere, such as inside all the other chakras. It is seated at this place in the body to manage the chakra of sexuality and excretion as it is like a lotus that blooms above the mud. This shows the importance of a balanced sexual life.
DIVINE PRINCIPLE OF MOOLADHARA- RIGHT ASPECT
Shri Kartikeya is the brother of Shri Ganesha. It is the other aspect of the Mooladhara chakra, like a coin that has two sides. it represents innocence put into action. He is also a warrior child who was created to kill demons.

He incarnated as Dnyaneshwara in India, the great sage and writer. He is the physical body of Jesus Christ in the incarnation of the sixth chakra when Shri Ganesha is his essence.
He is also the body of the future incarnation of the seventh chakra, Shri Kalki, in Indian scriptures. And Christ who returns as King at the Last Judgment.
DIVINE PRINCIPLE OF KUNDALINI
When the message that invites the Kundalini to rise is detected on our hands and our fingers on which all the chakras are found, the information goes down to SHRI GANESHA, at the Mooladhara chakra, and awakens it. Then he informs his mother the Kundalini, personified by SHRI GAURI, who is in the sacrum.
Shri Gauri created her child Shri Ganesha all by herself from a scented paste that covered her body. Her incarnation is the Virgin Mary who alone conceived her child Jesus Christ.
DIVINE PRINCIPLE Of MOOLADHARA
Hindu scriptures give an interesting account of the creation of Shri Ganesha
The Primordial Mother, in the form as the Goddess Gauri, was taking her bath one day, and feared that someone unauthorised might enter her bathroom and disturb her chaste modesty. So to protect her, she created a child which she formed from the scented mud paste applied on her body. This scented mud was of course redolent with vibrations of chastity since she was still at that point a virgin.
She was waiting to see her Lord, Sadashiva, for the first time since their wedding ceremony, and preparing to meet him, she was taking her bath. When he arrived at her abode, she was still in her bath, and he was very surprised to find a child sitting at the back door of his wife’s bathroom.
When the child told Sadashiva that he was the son of Gauri, Sadashiva became infuriated. Sadashiva knew Gauri was a virgin, and thinking this child was trying to malign his wife’s holy name, he took out his sword in fury and beheaded the child on the spot.
When Gauri discovered that her child had been killed by her husband, she explained to Sadashiva how she had created her son, and pleaded with her husband to bring her child back to life again. He went into the forest and, finding a baby elephant, cut off its head and transplanted it onto the body of the child.
Cosmic creation of Shri Ganesha by the Adi Shakti, during the creation of the world
God’s desire to create takes shape when Almighty God or Parabrahma awakens and separates into two entities, Sadashiva and Adi Shakti. So, the event that is at the basis of the creation of this world is the first push of love that Parabrahma gives to the Adi Shakti, the Primordial Mother, to force her to create the worlds. This thrust simultaneously creates the first AUM sound. This abstract phase of Genesis ends when the first AUM sound is released.
The sacred syllable AUM is written by the separation of the Primordial Mother and Almighty God. By the first elliptical movement of A, the Adi Shakti desires creation; by the second, U, she puts herself into action to create; and by the third, M, she reveals her love for creation, which is her child. This is how the three moods come into existence: that of desire (Tamo Guna), that of activation (Raja Guna), and that of revelation (Sattwa Guna).
In fact, the Mooladhara chakra is made from the first syllable A of the sacred triple syllable AUM (or OM). Each of these syllables is a mantra. Mantra A represents the Mahakali Power of Adi Shakti. The Mooladhara Chakra was created by Mahakali as Gauri, who is the Mother of Ganesha. Thereafter, she transmits her only child to Mahalakshmi who, as the Virgin Mary, gives birth to him in the form of Jesus Christ.
Thus the Divine Power is expressed by the Word, also known as the AUM or the Logos.
