"Oh Devi-Kundalini! You are the fire of the seven Laya centers of the universe.The seven Laya centers of the universe are the seven degrees of power of the fire. Seven churches exist in the Chaos where the seven planetary Logoi officiate.These seven churches also exist within the spinal medulla of the human being."
― Kundalini Yoga
Chakras are something more and more people are becoming familiar with. The term Chakra often translates to 'Vortex' or 'Spinning Discs".
They are fundamental aspects of the subtle energy body - meaning that they are not something you can find and measure with a scientific instrument if you were to open up the physical body. But rather their presence is known through a deeper understanding of the role they play and how they show themselves through our emotions, intuition, virtues, and abilities as multi-dimensional beings.
There are many benefits to understanding the Chakras. Simply put they can be thought of as a roadmap to activating our potential within this human form!
One of the key benefits of understanding the chakras is learning more about the corresponding virtues of each chakra that make up our personalities and as well as mantras for each Chakra and how to integrate a meditative practice into your daily life that will help work with them and activate them.
"Prana is the Vital Christ or Great Breath. That Vital Christ is modified into Akasha, within which the Son, the First Begotten, the Purusha [Innermost] of every human being, is hidden. Akasha is modified into Ether, and the Ether is transformed into Tattvas. The Tattvas are the origin of fire, air, water, and earth. Therefore, everything that exists, everything that has been, and everything that shall be comes from the Great Breath, the Cosmic Christ, the Army of the Voice, whose supreme commander is Jesus Christ."

"The Akash is the vehicle of sound. The Kundalini is Akashic. Therefore, one cannot incarnate the Word without the Akash, since the Akash is the vehicle of sound. This is why we need to raise the Akashic serpent in order to incarnate the Word, Christ. The Kundalini (Akashic fire) becomes creative with the Word, because the Kundalini is the vehicle of the creative Word."

“Each of the seven chakras is governed by spiritual laws, principles of consciousness that we can use to cultivate greater harmony, happiness, and wellbeing in our lives and in the world.”

"Chakras are organizational centers for the reception, assimilation, and transmission of life-force energy. They are the stepping stones between heaven and earth.”
― Anodea Judith

Ajna:
“The plexus of this chakra is a lotus flower that sprouts from the pituitary gland. This gland is the page or light bearer of the pineal gland, where the crown of the Saints, the lotus of one thousand petals, the eye of Dangma, the eye of intuition, is situated. Psychic clairvoyance by itself, without the development of the coronary chakra, could lead the Yogi/Yogini astray into grave errors.”
― Kundalini Yoga
Sahasrara:
“Intuition allow us to know the internal reality of all the images that float in the Astral Light. The intuitive clairvoyant is omniscient. A clairvoyant without intuition is like a ship without a compass or a ship without a steering wheel. The intuitive clairvoyant is powerful.”
― Kundalini Yoga
