THE CHAKRAS
The Chakras are
centers in the human body where concentrated spiritual
energies reside. The light energy of the chakras cannot be seen by the
human
eye, but can be detected by psychic or spiritual means. The chakras can
serve
as indicators of physical illness (both present and future), spiritual crisis,
or
general imbalance in a person.

Many spiritual
people "open" or "cleanse" their chakras to facilitate
meditation or to promote physical or spiritual health. Often
a person will
visualize each of their major chakras being filled with swirling white light,
washing away any residue of negative energy stored there.
