Chakras
Chakras are nerve plexuses or interwoven networks of nerves with
numerous communicating branches. Each chakra combines a set of spinal
nerves to serve a specific area of the body. In Hindu texts chakra is a
concept ‘referring to wheel-like vortices which, according to
traditional Indian medicine, are believed to exist in the surface of the
etheric double of man. The chakras are said to be “force centers” or
whorls of energy permeating, from a point on the physical body, the layers
of the subtle bodies in an ever-increasing fan-shaped formation. Rotating
vortices of subtle matter, they are considered the focal points for the
reception and transmission of energies.’
