Draining of Prana

Draining of Prana

WHY DO I FEEL DRAINED AROUND SOME PEOPLE?

Did you ever feel exhausted after a conversation with someone?

Do you always feel tired after talking to a specific person?

Why do some people carry a negative vibe that ultimately affects the mood of others and drains their energy?

To begin with, feeling exhausted around some people is absolutely normal. You may tend to keep certain distance from them because they give you negative vibes. 

Why do you think this happens? 

This has something to do with Prana, better known as the Life energy.

What Is Prana?

Prana can be defined as the energy that breathes “life” into us and every living being on earth. It is emitted from the sunlight and grants life energy to all organisms on earth, helping our bodies to function effectively.

Can you imagine our bodies functioning without any energy? That is how essential Pprana is! Without this life energy, no living body can function at all. Life of all living beings – animals, birds, plants, and humans is a product of Pprana. We consume ample amount of Pprana present in the atmosphere everyday for survival.

This blog post will expand your knowledge about the Etheric body and the subject of Theosophy. So read closely!

What is the role of Prana?

Prana is the source of life for every organism on earth and it energizes our body all the time. Helena Blavatsky, the co-founder of Theosophical Society compared Prana, to oxygen. Just as oxygen is an active chemical element necessary for organisms to breathe, so is Prana an important element for all living beings.

How Is Prana absorbed by our Bodies?

According to the school of Theosophy,

Prana is emitted from the sunlight and is present is ample amount in the atmosphere. It forms Vitality Globules in the environment which is absorbed by our Spleen Chakra (force centre) and then distributed to all other parts of the body. Since Prana enters the etheric body through the Spleen Chakra first, it is the most important of all other chakras in our etheric body.

Therefore, it is very important for the Spleen Chakra to function smoothly so that enough energy is absorbed and supplied to the body.

Now, how it is absorption of Prana related to feeling exhausted around some people? 

Here’s how…

  1. Trouble in Assimilation​:


    Some people are not able to assimilate this source of energy in their bodies because their Spleen Chakra is not functioning properly. This trouble in assimilation causes them to remain low on energy.  Such people are often seen inactive and weak.

    Because of this lack of Prana, they unconsciously tend to draw the Prana from the sensitive people around them. They suck Prana from others, only to make up for their own deficiency! Doing this does not benefit the one absorbing energy as his Spleen Chakra itself is not functioning properly. But the victims of this episode get drained out and feel tired very soon. 

    That is why we may feel such individuals bring along some negativity. We can call them “energy vampires” as they absorb Prana from others leaving the people exhausted. We avoid coming in contact with them as we do not want to feel low or weary. But the person unconsciously sucking Prana from others is in a poor state himself.

    So now you know why you really feel exhausted after coming in contact with some people!

    In contrast to the state of energy vampires, a person who is physically fit and healthy is blessed with a supremely smooth functioning Spleen Chakra. This helps him in generating more PranaPrana than what is sufficient for his body. In that case, the remaining Prana is radiated from the individual’s body in all directions.

    You may have seen a person who is physically fit, often brings along some good vibes and energy in the room. It is because of the positive life energy that is constantly glowing from their body.

    This overflowing energy makes him an excellent source of Prana for those around him. Such positive energy is very beneficial for those who wish to perform healing activities!


  2. Restoring in the Body​


    A person can prevent drainage of Prana by creating a protective shield around him using various practices of Pranic healing.

    Pranic healing may also help in restoring the functioning of the spleen chakraSpleen Chakra of the energy vampire.

    Plants and vegetables are known to absorb a lot of Prana that they do not use it significantly for themselves. Trees like oak, pine, eucalyptus obtain high amount of Prana. Sitting under a tree or around highly-charged flora can help a drained person restore his or her Prana.
