These chakras were discovered a long time ago during the Vedic age. In fact, in many of the spiritual chants, you will find referen Today science has proved that there is a gland located near each of these chakras that is related to that particular chakra. These seven chakras supply energy to the glands.

These seven major chakras deeply influence our physical, emotional and mental activities.

These chakras have great power.

Chakras are energy centers and if they are kept in a cleansed and energized condition, they can cause us to live an ecstatic and healthy life.

Dis-ease is only an imbalance in any one of these chakras, because our body and mind are rooted in our inner consciousness. Keeping these chakras in a healthy state, we can see a transformation happening in us at the mental and physical levels

A SHORT STORY

After World War I, a biplane was
abandoned near a remote tribal
settlement in Asia. The tribal people
had never seen an aircraft in all their
lives. There was a lot of excitement
and commotion about it and a big
crowd gathered around it. They
wondered what it might be and each
one started giving some suggestion
about it.

They finally concluded that since it
had wheels, it must be a bullock cart!
News spread in the village about the
new bullock cart. There was a lot of
celebration in the village and the
biplane was taken around the
settlement yoked to bullocks, and it
served as a bullock cart.

A SHORT STORY

Some weeks later, a young tribal boy who had returned from the city where he was studying, saw the biplane. He got into it and looked around. He saw all the gears and mechanisms in it. He fiddled with the switches and levers.

Suddenly, the engine came to life!

He managed to taxi the plane on the ground for a short distance and the villagers were shocked at what they saw. The boy had seen tractors being used and declared to the people that the biplane was not a bullock cart but some kind of tractor.

A SHORT STORY

There was great celebration once
again and the biplane started being
used as a tractor!

Six months passed by and a retired
army officer came to the village. He
saw the biplane being used as a tractor
and was shocked! He told the villagers
that it was not a tractor and that the
plane could actually fly. They refused
to believe him because the only things
they had ever seen flying were birds!
The army officer got into the aircraft,
flew it for a short while and landed.

The villagers were
wonderstruck. Then they
understood its true potential.

A SHORT STORY

MORAL

Understand: man is a wonderful
mechanism meant to fly. But we
don't know our true potentiality.
We have a very limited view of
ourselves. Most of us operate only as
a bullock cart, at the instinct level,
surrendering to our emotions.

Just like this, there are mechanisms
or gears inside us, called the chakras,
which are boundless energy centers.
Each of them is associated with a
particular emotion within us. If we
understand how to handle the
emotion properly, we can function
as an aircraft.
