The Chakras are spiritual centers of our body. Every one
of us has these Chakras, but in ordinary people they are in
a dormant state. They develop with the awakening of Kundalini,
which takes place with one's spiritual practice. The principal
Chakras are seven: Muladhara, Swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata,
Visuddha, Ajna and Sahasrara. Chandra and Surya are considered
of less importance compared to the other seven Chakras. They
are about one fifth of the other Chakras in size. The higher
the location of the Chakra is, the higher its stage is.
