Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel, disc, or circle. The chakras are our vital points and represent the energy centers of our body, which have the task of absorbing our vital energy (prana) and distributing it outwards.

In our body, there are 74 chakras counted, but of these only 7 are the basic or main chakras. Each of these 7 chakras is located at a precise point in our body and they are distributed between the head and the base of the spine.

Even though we have given them a spatial location, the chakras are not part of our physical body but rather our subtle body, that is, our emotional part.

And it is precisely in this latter point that we can find the kundalini, an energy that is found in all of us and that is tangled in itself like a snake. In Hatha Yoga, the chakras represent the stages that the kundalini passes through during its path of ascent.

The chakras are also represented with lotus flowers seen from above. Precisely for this they can also take the name of Padma, which means exactly “lotus”.

Each lotus that represents a chakra also has a different number of petals and a different color and contains different elements, such as a mantra, a letter of the Sanskrit alphabet on the petals or a symbol with a particular meaning.
