THERE IS AN INTERPLAY OF TEN SYSTEMS:

IT EATS AND IS RESTORED BY FOOD.

IT BREATHES AND IS RESTORED BY AIR.

IT MOVES WITH THE ORGANS OF ACTION i.e.

expression, procreation, excretion, locomotion, grasping.

MOVEMENT is stimulated by subtle impulses and the senses, which feed the mind.

ANTAKARANA, WHICH EQUALS =

Mind, ego, intellect or in Yogic terms – manas, ahamkara, buddhi,

And so we think!

PRANA works on all levels of our being, stimulating all that we regard as our physical self into being and action.  It works through –

The chakras, that transform cosmic energy into physical energy.

In truth we are pure Spirit, our spiritual Self who uses the above as a vehecle to experience this physical world.  This physical world which like ourselves is a Divine creation!
