Anti-social behavior is not just a state of being unable to associate with others. Some psychologists have recognized that it can be a symptom of deeper disorders. It can also signal a problem in the spiritual state of being.
The inability to feel compassion for others is a serious deficit for an individual who is part of society. Social relationships can begin to be draining and it can become a state of constant apathy. This is not just bad for your own spiritual and mental well-being, but a constant source of pain for your loves ones.
In the spiritual schemata this might be a sign of you having trouble with your heart chakra. The heart chakra, located right in the chest, is the fourth chakra type (see image bellow). It represents the expression of love and compassion. The literal translation for heart chakra from the traditional Sanskrit is Anahata, which means ‘unstruck’. It’s easy to conclude that by balancing your heart chakra, you will feel more free and allow yourself to open up to others. In sense, you will become ‘unstruck’ in your social life.
Important Characteristics of Heart Chakra
- Empathy
- Peace and Harmony
- The ability to spread love
- The equally important ability to receive love
- Creating bonds between people

A healthy and happy life where we are at peace with our social world is the sign of a healthy heart chakra. It blends the functions of all the other chakra energies together. Some argue that the heart chakra could be seen as the most essential chakra force inside us.
