The 4th chakra out of 7 is Manipura chakra, is at the level of the solar plexus.
Manipura chakra is the seat of the fire within the body. Located at the navel, this is the chakra of the life force.
According to the Shiva Samhita, one who contemplates Manipura chakra not only conquers disease and death but also acquires the ability to enter another body.
Manipura has an upward, consuming movement like flames. Identification, recognition, immortality, longevity
The seed mantra is Ram. The chakra's vital breath is Samana. Samana vayu is one of the currents of prana, the life force, which pervades all limbs and is responsible for nourishing the body by distributing food as rasa.
The presiding deity of this chakra, Braddha Rudra, represents the power of destruction. All that exists returns to him. He has camphor-blue skin smeared wit ashes and a silver beard, and sits in his wrathful form on a golden tiger skin symbolic of the tiger of the mind that dwells in the forest of desires.
Ravan was a scholar, his knowledge of various scriptures & their practical use made him an exceptional man.
Amrit kup in his nabhi, naval may also be result of his yogic powers. Through his penance his Chakras were well developed, making the lower 5 much stronger.
When Ram's arrow was pearced through his nabhi, the vital force giving him strength, stopped. Resulting in his soul leaving his body later on.
He didnt die immediately. His soul was in the 4th Anahat chakra.
5th, Vishudhhi chakra, the throat chakra, controls speach.
When it reached 6th Agya chakra, he gave knowldge to Lakshman. 6th, Agya chakra stores a lot from past, present. He gave that knowledge to Lakshman.
After that his soul reached Sahastrar chakra, the 7th one.
One whose soul leaves from Sahastrar, merges with Divine. That was Ravan's Mukti.

An after note about ravan...

Bhagavatham

The essence of Indian mythology is obviously beyond the simple good vs evil trope. If you care to dig deep, there's an interesting story at every step.

Ravan played his role as a villain, but it was that of a much-needed villain, that brought balance to the equation. No wonder there are many people in the world, who still worship him.

A very insightful post 😊
You rightly said that our instinct stop us from complete surrender. It is our instinct to plan for future, to plan for next moment and this planning stops us from complete surrender. There are very few people who actually submit to all mighty, which is contrary to human nature. Very few actually believe 'Jo hona hoga hoga' rest of us although know this very well but Still try to make things work our way.
Complete surrender is tough.

Coming to nabhi and sound I read it somewhere that sound comes from various parts of our body. Most of the people speak from their nose, few (eg great singers) speak from their throat and very few speak from their nabhi. This voice which comes from nabhi is most impressive one, it attract other people's attention and have a deep impact on listener. This voice is supposed to come from deep inside.
