Kriyananda explains that each chakra and quality has its own vibration, and opening up to the higher vibrations of noble qualities like kindness, and forgiveness can allow us to flow in divine creative expression, rather than limit ourselves through intellectual analysis and ego. Tapping into this higher divine flow allows us to become instruments of truth and let those uplifting qualities manifest spontaneously.
