Book Description

July 8 1999 Llewellyn's New Age
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE CHAKRA SYSTEM?

Many people focus on a single chakra - like the Crown Chakra for Spirituality, the Brow Chakra for Psychic Powers, the Heart Chakra for Universal Love, the Solar Plexus for Power (especially for those into the martial arts) and so on - each chakra's special attribute. And some people try to repress the 'lower' chakras as morally bad. BUT the real importance is to understand the chakras as The Energy System of the entire Mind/Body/Spirit Complex.

WHEELS OF LIFE presents the Chakra System as a Formula for Wholeness and a Template for Transformation - actually a Map for the Journey through Life

At the inner core of each one of us spin seven wheel-like energy centers called chakras. Swirling intersections of vital life forces, each chakra reflects an aspect of consciousness essential to our lives. Together the seven chakras form a system of modeling that consciousness that enables us to better see ourselves - in mind, body, behavior and culture. This system is a valuable tool for personal and planetary growth.

Chakras are centers of activity for the reception, assimilation and transmission of life energies. As all our action and understanding arise from and return to points within ourselves, our chakras, as core centers form the coordinating network of our complicated mind/body system. . . . The chakras are the master programs that govern our life, loves, learning and illumination. Like a rainbow bridge, they form the connecting channel between mind and body, spirit and matter, past and future, Heaven and Earth. As we spin through the tumultuous times of our present era, the chakras are the gears that turn the spiral of evolution, drawing our attention toward the still untapped frontiers of consciousness and its infinite potential. (from Chapter One)

Wheels of Life is a system about a system - journeying the reader through the seven major chakras with theory, example, practical application and experiential exercises to accomplish the great work of personal transformation. Each consciousness is a unit in the evolutionary process moving us from what we are to what we can become, and through that process we realize ourselves as magicians, healers and visionaries.

Wheels of Life takes us through each chakra to fulfill its potentials and then transforms and makes us whole.

The journey is taken step-by-step, with each step bringing practical advantages in the development of inherent skills and abilities to meet the increasingly critical challenges of life in our times. Your life is filled with meaning and purpose. Its destiny is Enlightenment. Now, you must take the first step.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book!! How can 100,000 readers go wrong?? Nov 18 2002
Format:Paperback
This was my first book on the Chakra system and to be quite frankly it has been one of those books I always go back to look for references. My personal opinion is that Anodea Judith, PhD, has done an excellent book, both for the beginner in working and understanding the Chakras as well as the advanced.
Each chapter is dedicated to a particular Chakra. You will learn, the Sanskrit name to each Chakra, it's meaning, location, Element, Function, Inner State, Outer State, Body Parts, color, Mantra sound, Hindu Deity, as well as other deities from other pantheons. Also each chapter has a meditation on that particular Chakra as well as Yoga exercises to harness that particular Chakra to your favor. I have been directed to other books, because people say that there are better books out there. But to be honest this book for beginners is simple and right to the point. Anodea Judith, PhD writing is down to earth, and direct. Think about it, how can 100,000 readers go wrong. If you are looking for your first book on Chakras, you will not go wrong here. This is a good book, full of a wealth of information.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE go to book on Chakras Dec 27 2012
By Mandyln
Format:Paperback
Highly recommended!!
I purchased this book many years ago when I was introduced to the chakra system. As a yoga instructor I have since purchased other books & explored other experiences BUT . . . for me . . .this is THE "go to book" on chakras.
Anodea lives & breathes chakras. Her experience & knowledge is laid out in such a way that you're able to understand what she teaches. She provides clear & simple information, exercises and instruction that enable you to bring this knowledge into your everyday life. Her teachings are the solid foundation upon which you're able to develop your understanding of & experience YOUR energy.

4.0 out of 5 stars pleased to meet you Oct 6 2002
Format:Paperback
This book had a strange way of finding me, as have many of my books. This book, however, was my first multi-hundred paged book, and began the frenzy of reading in my life. I thought there could have been more exercises, but the ones in the book were acceptable for beginners. That's what this book is. A complete beginners guide. It has everything you need to get started on serious metaphysical study. I have read many books since, but much of what I have read comes back to Wheels of Life, cited material or not. This is an excellent reference work which gives much of the knowledge from the source that said it best.
