| Chakra, the ancient Sanskrit term for “spinning wheel”, is also known as the term for the energy centers within the vast energy network of the human body. “Nadis” – the body’s highways for vital energy and the Sanskrit term for “pipe” or “vein” (ancient Indian texts mention 72,000 nadis, other archaic texts speak of 350,000) unite into 14 main channels, connecting to the secondary and the 7 main primary chakras. How we feel physically, mentally and emotionally, how certain patterns dominate our lives, it all relates to a certain chakra in charge of certain aspects of the physical body, the mind and the feelings. |  |
Each one of the chakras vibrates at a unique frequency as do colors, which are also a way of distinguishing the 7 energy centers, their tones working in harmony with the frequency of their specific chakra. According to Albert Einstein, different colors represent differing energies of the field of relativity. Therefore colors, with each of them having a certain significance and meaning, are a wonderful tool for healing and chakra balancing.
"Meditating with colors” by coloring mandalas and listening to intuition should not be limited to children but is an excellent exercise for adults to get inspired, to focus, let go of stress and concentrate the mind on calming down and relaxation. A mandala symbolizes wholeness and is the Sanskrit word for "circle with a center”.

The topic “Chakras” is not necessarily something that the masses get involved with daily. Based on the immense influence this internal energy system has on our lives, on our relationships, on receiving and giving joy, love and peace, on being able to feel and express empathy and compassion, on healing illnesses and maintaining health, and last but not least on personal self-improvement, it might be a good idea though to start paying more attention to bringing those spinning wheels of energy into balance.
The depth of information about chakras available is as vast as the energy network itself and at this point I leave it up to the reader to dig deeper and to gain more detailed knowledge in this field. The time invested will not be wasted but may lead to a higher state of awareness beyond the material world most people limit themselves to and what the human eye is capable of seeing. The links provided below are excellent sources for further exploration of the fascinating world within us that can only be seen with an open mind.
