==Cakras/Centres==
Conscious centres and sources of all the dynamic powers of our being organising their action through the plexuses and arranged in an ascending series from the lowest physical to the highest mind centre and spiritual centre called the thousand-petalled lotus where ascending Nature, the Serpent Power of the Tantrics, meets the Brahman and is liberated into the Divine Being. These centres are closed or half-closed within us and have to be opened before their full potentiality can be manifested in our physical nature : but once they are opened and completely active, no limit can easily be set to the development of their potencies and the total transformation to be possible. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/13/the-divine-body#p19</ref>
In the process of our Yoga the centres have each a fixed psychological use and general function which base all their special powers and functionings. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/28/the-system-of-the-chakras#p18</ref>
