HINDU CHAKRA
Eastern religions teach there are
seven main chakras in your body which
store your spiritual information. Each
chakra represents organs and parts of
the body and the chakra holds mental,
emotional and spiritual information.
Awareness of this information assists
you in fulfilling your spiritual
life-lessons.
The word chakra is Sanskrit for wheel or disk and signifies
one of seven basic energy centers in the body. Each of these
centers correlates to major nerve ganglia branching forth
from the spinal column. In addition the chakras also
correlate to levels of consciousness, archetypal elements,
developmental stages of life, colors, sounds, body
functions, and much, much more.
The chakras are thought to vitalize the physical body and to
be associated with interactions of both a physical and
mental nature. They are considered loci of life energy, or
prana, which is thought to flow among them along pathways
called nadis.
