(A Study of The Seven Spiritual Centers ) |
A chakra is an Eastern term, meaning wheel or petal and originates from the ancient sanskrit. A chakra is a term used to describe a vortex of energy or a meeting place between the physical world and the ethereal. And although that meeting place is often placed within the human body, a chakra cannot be found inside of the physical body. I say this because if we were to disect the body, still we would not find a chakra. Yet, ironically, chakras are often associated with several systems within the body, such as the nerve plexus, bodily organs and even with the endrocrine gland system. |

In order to appreciate this Eastern esoteric system it would be wise for us to start out describing those seven spiritual centers of the body by using Eastern terms. Starting from the base of the spine and working our way up, they are as follows:
- Muladhara (Root/Base)
- Svadhishthana (Original Home of goddess Kundalini)
- Manipura (Jeweled Lotus)
- Anahata (Unbeaten/Unbroken)
- Vishudhi (To Purify)
- Ajna (To Command)
- Sahasrara (Thousand Petaled Lotus)
