Maca’s reputation as a powerful strength and stamina enhancer as well as libido-enhancing food-herb stretches back into prehistory. Maca, like goji berries and ginseng, is a powerful adaptogen, which means it has the ability to balance and stabilize the body’s systems (cardiovascular system, nervous system, musculature, lymphatic system, etc.). As an adaptogen, maca can provide more energy if it is needed, but if it is not, it will not overstimulate. Adaptogens also boost immunity and increase the body’s overall vitality by 10-15% according to most studies. Rather than addressing a specific symptom, adaptogens are used to improve the overall adaptability of the whole body to diverse and challenging situations and stress.

During the height of the Incan Empire, legend has it that Incan warriors would consume maca before entering into battle. This would make them fiercely strong. But after conquering a city the Incan soldiers were prohibited from using maca, to protect the women from excessive sexual impulses.

40 Day Meditation Retreat 2007 with Sri Vasudeva
“Be Wise in Action”
Day 32 – Thursday April 26, 2007

The navel area, in terms of the subtle energy system of the chakras, is an area that can boost your self-confidence, and self-esteem. It can take away your fear. It can boost your vitality and it gives a feeling of power. In the Japanese martial arts they focus on this area for power. In the Chinese system they focus on this area to store energy. In the yogic tradition this area is said to be the sun centre; it is a centre of vitality in the body.

When this centre is awakened, and the subtle energy of this centre is flowing, it makes a difference in how you feel. Your body system begins to support you. If your body is weak and lacking vitality, you can be as mentally confident as you want to be, but when you begin to act, you may find that the body is not willing. Sometimes we hear the spirit is willing but the body is weak. When this navel centre is awakened, however, it begins to boost the physical system in a way of super energizing it, and you begin to feel that your body is now supporting you. And that is a great feeling. That is exactly what happens in the martial arts because this system is boosted. The martial artist is able to perform what may seem to be super human feats, but that person is really tapping into the energy of the navel.

When your body is weak in vitality, do you notice that you don’t want to speak to people? You become more reserved, and you find yourself contracting if there is a difficult situation. You do not want to face it. Sometimes you feel butterflies in the stomach area, the feeling of nervousness, or the feeling of fear. This represents the navel. If you learn how to boost the energy of this area, you begin to feel these things going away. It’s as though you are supporting the body in such a way that its fears are going away; its nervousness is going away. And that brings a tremendous amount of confidence at the vital level. So we may be mentally confident but the body may not be able to support that.

It is extremely important to explore how to energize this centre so the body can be supportive to our mental confidence. Then it is as though your entire being now supports your vision, or, your drive to achieve your goals. Your entire being is involved in it. When you look at those who are really into action in sports or dancing or exercise, and you see that the performance is excellent, if you were to find out about some of the secret, they will tell you about this centre.

In normal lives we do not think that there is a centre within us that we can actually boost, which can make a difference at the vital level. Of course, when your body is stronger, when your body is healthier, you find that your mind is better; your drives are more powerful. So in the ancient wisdom of the East we see this kind of power. In Tai Chi, Qigong, yoga and in martial arts you see the use of this power centre.
