Right. What's a Chakra?

Feeling a little overwhelmed after two days of meditation, without nurishment, I had to ask.

"What's a Chakra again?"

"Chakras are centers of energy, located on the midline of the body," said Starz Eagle Dancer. "There are seven of them, and they govern our psychological properties. The chakras located on the lower part of our body are our instinctual side, the highest ones our mental side."

"Well, I don't go in for that cheap physical stuff, and I seek to live on a higher plane," I said. "But, if I'm asked, what do I say to Pink Puffers who want to deal with, say, their more instinctual side?"

"Basically, listen to Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing and that will take care of the bottom three Chakras," the Wise One said.

"So, we begin with the Heart," I said.

"We begin with the Heart, with the Rose Quartz," said StarzEagle Dancer.

"I'm running out of time. Let's get started," I implored.

"Patience, my son. Patience."
