Why Do Brahmins Wear A Choti On Their Head?
Our human body has seven energy centres, or chakras, starting from the first one at the base of the spine known as the Mooladhara Chakra, to the seventh and last - the Sahasrara Chakra, which means the thousand petalled lotus. The kundalini is a snake like subtle energy lying coiled at the base chakra, which through yogic exercise can be made to uncoil and rise up through the chakras, finally reaching the one at the top, the Sahasrara. The enlightened Master is one who has achieved the deepest realization of life, and his kundalini would have crossed the shikha, covering the part of the skull wherein lies the final chakra, and reached the Sahasrara Chakra.
Sushrut rishi, the eminent surgeon of Ayurveda, describes the master sensitive spot on the head as Adhipati Marma, which is where the nexus of all nerves is. It is the shikha that protects this vital spot. Below in the brain is located the Brahmarandhra, where the sushumnã (nerve) arrives from the lower part of the body. In yoga, Brahmarandhra is the centre of wisdom, and the knotted shikhã helps boost this centre and conserve its subtle energy, known as ojas.
