The Anāhata Chakra – From “The Serpent Power” by Arthur Avalon
“Above it, in the region of the heart, is the beautiful lotus of twelve petals, of a deep red color. On its petals are the letters ka to ṭha, shining like the sun.”
“Within it is the region of Vāyu, in the form of a hexagon, smoky in colour. Within this is the Bīja YAM, of a smoky hue, seated on a black antelope.”
“There abides Īśa, the Lord, white like the full moon, with two arms, bestowing boons and dispelling fear, seated upon the antelope.”
“Here dwells Kākiṇī Śakti, yellow in colour, adorned with ornaments, with three eyes and four arms, holding the noose and skull, and full of radiant beauty.”“Meditating on this lotus, the yogī becomes lord of speech, dear to all, and full of wisdom.
