In the Chakras section of my homepage www.le-papillon-bleu.ch, I describe the seven main chakras and their effect on the body and psyche... as well as illnesses that can be treated with the color associated with the respective chakra.
Chakras are energy centers at which the soul and body interpenetrate. The Indian chakra teachings recognize seven main chakras.
From the base of the spine towards the head, they follow the anatomy of the spinal cord and brain stem in a spiral pattern. Yoga philosophy assumes that a person's level of consciousness depends on the vibrational frequency of their chakras. When the chakras are turning quickly, they shine brightly and clearly: the person is physically and mentally healthy and is at a high spiritual level.
When all the main chakras are fully open and the life energy (prana) can flow without blockages or disturbances, Hinduism and Buddhism speak of an enlightened person.
