According to Osho, the hara is the fundamental life center—two inches below the navel—from which your vitality flows; the chakras are energy vortices arrayed along the spine that are nourished by this source. When you settle awareness in the hara, energy stabilizes, fear drops, and kundalini can rise naturally, harmonizing and awakening the chakras; when disconnected from hara, chakras remain unbalanced, dominated by the head.
The hara is your main battery, and the chakras are lights—charge the battery and the lights glow in order.
