The Hara is the center of the etheric or chi body. It is about an inch in diameter and is the gateway into the ocean of chi. Around the Hara and with it as the center there is an envelope of energy called the ‘tan tien’. This tan tien is a ball of etheric energy about the size of a soccer ball. It is filled from the Hara and is often called ‘the cauldron’ in Taoist alchemical texts. This ball of energy interacts with all the organs and especially the intestines as it is where food is turned into energy. Energy is taken from the food and mixed in the tan tien or cauldron before being distributed throughout the body. Having the Hara open and a full tan tien is vital for real health and vitality. Unfortunately most people have many Samskaras and energetic blockages in this area and the fullness that should be felt in the tan tien is absent. This is the main cause of many addictions especially to food. Constantly eating and overeating are an attempt to feel full despite a blocked Hara and empty tan tien.
The [[Hara Center]] is the center of the etheric or chi body, it is a ball of energy that directly connects to the earth. It is about an inch in diameter and is the gateway into the ocean of chi. Around the Hara and with it as the center there is an envelope of energy called the ‘tan tien’ or Dantien. This [[Dan Tien]] is a ball of etheric energy about the size of a soccer ball. It is filled from the Hara and is often called ‘the cauldron’ in Taoist alchemical texts. This ball of energy interacts with all the organs and especially the intestines as it is where food is turned into energy. Energy is taken from the food and mixed in the tan tien or cauldron before being distributed throughout the body. Having the Hara open and a full tan tien or [[Dan Tien]] is vital for real health and vitality. Unfortunately most people have many ancestral miasmas (Samskaras) and energetic blockages in this area and the fullness that should be felt in the dan tien is absent. This is the main cause of many addictions especially to food. Constantly eating and overeating are an attempt to feel full despite a blocked Hara and empty [[Dan Tien]].

==Silver Sanctum==
The [[Silver Sanctum]] is a [[12D Ray]] current energy capsule that exists inside and within your inner body sanctum where the dan tien centers exist on the hara line or inner [[Vertical Channel]]. The [[Silver Sanctum]] encompasses a capsule around the mental bodies of the [[Hara Complex]] connecting them to higher spiritual bodies through [[12D Ray|12 D current]].
 
==Inner Vertical Channel or Hara Line==
[[File:Haraline.png|thumb|right|Hara Line]]Main vertical spiritual current column (also called the sushuma). It runs up the center of the body. This is related to the formation of the 1st of the 1st Eight Cells of the Spirit Body in the [[Tailbone]]. It is where the Hara Currents come from. And before the Hara Currents we have the Core Currents that come from the [[Eye of God]].<ref>[http://www.energeticsynthesis.com/index.php/resource-tools/news-shift-timelines/150-newsletters-2007/1481-a-new-era-emerges May 2007 Newsletter] </ref>

==Three Dan Tien Centers==
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Dantians are three powerful energy centers where energy is gathered, stored, and transformed into life energy in the body. Each Dantian has a different energy which serves a different purpose even though they are connected as a single concept. These centers have been referenced in ES clearing meditations.
 
[[File:Dantien.jpg|thumb| Three Dan Tien Centers]]
 
* '''The Lower Dan Tien - Jing'''
* Location: Two fingers below the navel and 3 fingers breath inside. See [[Hara Center]].
• Considered the wellspring of human energy Kidney [[Jing]] and the residence of Original Qi, which has been converted from Original Essence (passed down through our ancestors). 
• In Daoist meditation and Chinese martial arts training much attention is devoted to connecting with this lower dan tian. This is because it is the thing that allows us to be physically / mentally ‘rooted’ or ‘centered’. Rootedness is the basis for all martial arts, meditation and Qigong practice.   


''Alchemy Realm'' [http://www.alchemyrealm.com/hara.htm]
* '''The Middle Dan Tien- Qi'''
*Location: See upper [[Solar Plexus]], base of [[4th Chakra|Heart Chakra]]. 
• This energy centers specializes in maintaining the health of the internal organs.
* The center of post-birth breathing where energy from the Jing (essence) of air and food is gathered and converted into Qi.  The heart and lungs convert air Jin into Qi and the stomach and digestive system is where food Jing is converted. This process is similar to burning wood to create heat. Unlike Original Qi (inherited Qi), the Qi created through the conversion of air and food Jing is unpredictable and not always beneficial. When someone lacks sleep or is eating too much ‘yang / positive food’ (i.e. peanuts) their body is said to be ‘on fire’ and their body has an excess of Fire Qi.      
• The Qi created here remains in the middle Dan Tian until it is utilized throughout the body by means of the Conception and Governing vessels. The Conception vessels runs all the way up the front and the Governing vessels runs all the way down the back.  


* '''The Upper Dan Tien - Shen'''
*Location: In the forehead. This is the limbic system in the center of the head, including the pineal gland or Third Eye. See [[6th Chakra]].
• The brain requires a lot of Qi to function properly. Qi is delivered to the brain through the Thrusting Vessel which runs directly up the spinal cord. 
• When there is an abundance of Qi in the Upper Dan Tian the spirit is energized, if not you will become unfocused, depressed and mentally unstable.  <ref>[https://www.skeegoedhart.com/the-three-dantians skeeegoedhart therapies]</ref>

The physical space where the hara or tanden is located is a couple of inches below the navel, inside the body, closer to the spine than the navel. As mentioned earlier it is not so much the physical space that matters, but the energetic or spiritual aspects represented by these words. In this sense, experience of the hara can be spoken of as simply being hara.

In practical terms we talk of bringing the energy down to the hara. Yet there are many layers to be discovered within this concept of hara, so where exactly are we bringing the energy to?

In training we learn and experience one step at a time. Therefore to make the study of the hara easier to understand it is taught that the tanden is the focus point in the belly while hara is our true nature.

For this reason at a beginner’s level practices and techniques guide the mind to focus on the tanden – helping it not to wander. These practices aid you in gaining a fuller understanding of the tanden as your mind calms and you become less distracted. This is the perfect way to begin your training, and the deeper you go, the more your understanding changes and develops.

After what may take many years of practice, you will begin to experience that the tanden actually becomes hara. This growth in understanding is interlinked with a clearer understanding of who you are. At this point your mind is not focused on one point anymore but merged with everything.

If the mind remains focused at the tanden for your entire spiritual journey, you will become stuck and restricted.

At the point of hara the mind has no place to stay still for it is everywhere, completely in union with the universe, no beginning and no end. It is open and at ease. This is hara, or in other words, you have realized your true nature. Here your mind never hesitates or stops; it is like water, when encountering a rock, it simply flows around obstacles.
