The Vishuddha Chakra, or Throat Chakra, governs communication, self-expression, and truth. It empowers us to articulate our needs and share our unique resonance through sound and language. Associated with Lord Dakshinamurthy, a form of Shiva symbolising wisdom and inner guidance, this chakra fosters clarity and authentic expression. The mantra honouring him seeks his blessings for truth and wisdom.

The Vishuddha Chakra is symbolised by a light blue lotus with sixteen petals, representing the elements of speech and sound, and the Sanskrit vowels that enable clear communication. Its yantra features a full moon with a silver ring, emphasising clarity and spiritual growth, and a downward triangle representing creative expression.

The Bija mantra "HAM" resonates with the element of space, facilitating harmonious expression. The white elephant symbolises purity, wisdom, and discernment, reminding us to detach from outcomes and practice mindful speech. By balancing Vishnu Granthi, we cultivate sattvic expression—thoughtful, helpful, inspiring, necessary, and kind.
