The main chakras, rising from the bottom, are: Muladhara Root chakra with four leaves Svadhisthana Sacral or sexual chakra with six leaves, Manipura Umbilical or solar plexus chakra with ten leaves Anahata Heart chakra with twelve leaves Vishuddha Throat or throat chakra with sixteen leaves Ajna Forehead chakra with two leaves Sahasrara Crown or crown chakra, as a thousand-petalled lotus

Are the chakras the link between body and mind?The chakras each have an extremely deep meaning. They represent the imaginary link between our physicality and that of the truth behind the illusions. We can transcend the errors of our life with this thought hook. By focusing fully on our bodies, we move into that "now" that other forms of spirituality are so desperate to achieve. What is this thought hook?By recognizing imperfections - here the blockage of our chakras - a term, symbolism - and declaring that we are ready to clear up this error (the imperfection) - by changing our mindset - we automatically slide into the Realm of the transcendent. It is only up to us to intensify this, to learn, to train - in order to finally reach the unified goal - the goal of all spirituality – enlightenment. Before we get into the individual devotions, there is little to say.The following lessons, called “devotion” in the Tantra sense, will familiarize you with the spiritual path of Tantra Yoga. You will learn the basics of the chakras, the nadis, the bandhas, the flow of energies. You will find numerous exercises that will help you to let your energies flow much more freely and also to control them in a certain way. External impressionsExtremely important in Tantra spirituality - after all, we work with the senses of our body - are external impressions, the spatiality, the circumstances, the setting. In practice, these are just as important as the impartial attitude of the Tantra practitioners. It may help to regard tantra, the ritual around the practice, the treading of this path as “sacred”. Whatever this may mean for the individual. Ultimately, Tantra has nothing to do with religion.
