The seven Endocrinal Glands form the fundamental basis of the Human Being. From these seven Glands emanate the seven Chakras. These are the basis of Spiritual life of Man. The location of the Glands and the Chakras coincide.
The health of the Body depends upon the harmonious vibration of the Glands. But since the Glands are in vibrational harmony with the Planets, these Planets affect our lives. Thus the importance of the Study of Astrology. If then a certain Planet is in wrong Aspect, we get a corresponding repercussion in the Body. The great functions of the Body, Locomotion, Prehension, Excretion, Reproduction, Speech, and Spiritual, depend for their well-being upon the harmonious vibration of the planet linked with them.
The four elements needed for manifestation, are also in harmonious vibration with these centers. The solidity of Earth, the Hindering quality of Water, the Energy of Fire, and the Support of Air are found in both Microcosm and in Macrocosm. The identification of the Microcosm and the Macrocosm is YOGA. Conquering the four elements, we rise with more subtile Ether, and from there to the Mental Plane, where, no longer limited by the four elements, we achieve Clairvoyance. On reaching the Absolute, we gain enlightment in the Universal Consciousness, and there is no more limitation. Thus the importance of Yoga. At the base of the spine, in the Sex Plexus, is Muladhara, with its emanation. Sushumna, the Fluidic Column, trough which is destined to pass Kundalini, the great inner power. Kundalini symbolized by a Serpent, in the little cup of Sushumna sleeps, but awaits the day of awakening.
Through Pingala, positive, and Ida negative, flows the force, the nerve fluid, which can be used to prepare the way for Kundalini.
Man awaits the transmutation from the Scorpion to the Eagle, the opening of BRAHMA RUNDRA, the reintegration in Universal Consciousness, Samadhi, Yoga, Peace.
