"Does the mind come first, or chemistry?   It is the crux of the difference between Eastern and Western thought. In Eastern, the consciousness precedes reality. In Western, we think consciousness is a secretion of the brain, like urine is a secretion of the kidneys. She writes that there is a very close correspondence between the highest, most concentrated areas of enrichment of certain neuropeptides and where the chakras are classically supposed to be -- there's a striking concordance to chakra, the Eastern system of seven energy centers. The seven centers actually correspond in places of enriched neuropeptides VIP (vasoactive intestinal peptide), which is an incredibly important neuropeptides, critical in regulating the neural immune switches between the brain and the immune system, as well as being involved in the pathogenesis of AIDS." .....

"In laboratory experiments, it has recently been realized that a localized source at a fixed frequency excites a cone of radiation in a plasma crystal. The apex of the cone will be pointed towards the source and the angle of the cone is determined by its spin frequency. Excitations from fast moving particles in a plane below or next to a single-layered plasma crystal give rise to these cones. According to plasma cosmology, rotating galaxies in space are formed when filamentary currents pinch. This can happen when two currents move towards or cross each other. Dr David Tansely, a radionics specialist, says that, "The seven major chakras are formed at points where standing lines of light (or meridians) cross each other 21 times. The 21 minor chakras are located at points where the energy strands cross 14 times." Based on these theories, we can infer how chakras develop in subtle bodies (composed of magnetic plasma or 'magma')."

"Dr. Pert has established a very positive link between what we think, what we feel and what is happening to our bodies. Her research reveled of our internal body chemistry, and how so much of what we think and feel has to do with neuro-peptides - chemical messengers created by most cells in our body. She also demonstrates well how thoughts create these chemical messengers in an ongoing process - and these create the emotions we feel. Mind body communication happens through Chemistry of emotion through neuro peptides. Specific receptor molecules on cell surface and specific stimulus based on state of mind created through Neuro peptides. Neuro peptides are all over the body. However high concentration of neuro peptides found in certain nodal points of the body along spinal cord, this nodal points are also called  “Chakras” as per spiritual energetic body. These emotions are stored across body as Subconscious mind, “ Your body is your subconscious mind." .....
