In various Hindu belief systems such as Sanātana, Tantra and yoga, a chakra refers to an energy point or node in the body.

Chakras are not a part of the physical body, instead, they are a part of the subtle body which are the meeting points of nadis, the subtle (non-physical) energy channels.

Nadis are the channels in the subtle body through which our life force, or prana, moves.

Prana is our vital energy.

The variety of the traditions’ texts and teachings present a different number of chakras.

According to the tantric text, there are many chakras in the subtle human body.

We are going to focus on the seven chakras that are considered to be the most important.
