This is why understanding the chakra system is important: Chakras help us understand the basic mechanisms of health from a non-materialistic perspective. According to yoga philosophy, the spirit manifests the mind and the mind the body. Chakras are a fractal of that causal pathway. They are the window to the cosmological structure. Our western understanding of health doesn’t work – we still have a reductionist lens through which we see health and we still try to fix things by isolating disease on a physical level and in specific systems. Spirituality and the mind are marginalized in terms of our curative approaches. Physicality is the base, spirit is the cause - but we confuse the base with the cause. Chakras offer us an ecology of mind, an ecology of human causality. From this point, we can start to understand how to address the myriad personal and public health crises that we are faced with and find real, lasting solutions.
