Chakras
About This Book
You have a number of vividly colored, blazing, coruscating whirlpools of energy that serve as your subtle psychic sense organs. C.W. Leadbeater, famous clairvoyant, makes them come authentically alive in living color with ten striking illustrations. Then, with great clarity and simplicity, he explains what each chakra means to your welfare. For you and your body are in truth a great nucleus of potential power! In print since 1927, hundreds of thousands of copies of this book have been sold. It is recognized as a classic of esoteric literature.
What You'll Learn
• Understand Leadbeater's detailed description of each of the seven major chakras: their location, the number of spokes or petals, their characteristic colours at different levels of development, and their specific functions in processing prana and supporting consciousness
• Grasp the relationship between the chakras and the endocrine glands as Leadbeater describes it: his early identification of correspondences between specific chakras and specific glands that subsequent yoga-medicine research has largely confirmed
• Recognise the role of the chakras in the perception of psychic and subtle phenomena: how the development of specific centres is associated with specific paranormal capacities, from clairsentience (solar plexus) through clairvoyance (brow) to spiritual will (crown)
• Learn the flow of prana through the chakra system: how life force enters the physical body through the spleen chakra, is distributed and transformed by the other centres, and how the quality of this flow determines both physical vitality and states of consciousness
• Appreciate the methodology and its limitations: what Leadbeater's clairvoyant approach can and cannot tell us, how his observations compare with classical Hindu and Tantric descriptions, and why critical evaluation remains important even while acknowledging the genuine contribution of his research
