Abstract

Chakra are the energy centers in the subtle body that play an important role in our physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing. The Term Chakra means Circle or Wheel. In Ayurveda vitiation in the state of Dhatus cause disease, and normalcy in their state causes Aarogya. This state of health is called Sukha (happiness), And the state of vikara(disease) is said as Dukha (unhappiness).The Nadis are the subtle channels that run from chakras to various points of body and energize our physiological system. There are six main chakras distributed along the spine from the base- Muladhara, Swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata, Vishuddh, Ajna, and seventh Sahasrara which is beyond the physical region. Prana is the sum total of all the energy which supports Buddhi, Hridaya, indriya and Chitta, According to Ayurveda dosha, dhatu, mala are the root of body(sharir). The balanced Doshas promotes quality of sapta dhatus, and good quality of Dhatus is essential for good health, if Dhatus are formed in the proper form, then all the action of body will be in right form and the tendency of waste products will also be right, all these functions in the body are done by energy and only through vata, this energy goes from one place to another in body, thus if the flow of energy is not in a proper form then the body’s equilibrium will deteriorate.
