Abstract

Muladharchakra is foundation from which we climb the ladder of the Chakras, the root from which we received the nourishment for our spiritual development, because it is located at the base of spinal column. It is also known as root Chakra. As Muladhar Chakra is located at the basal end of spinal column. So, it can be correlated to sacro-coccygeal plexus which is situated at the same vital point of the body. Muladhar Chakra lies between the origin of the reproductive organ and anus. Hence, it is the chief seat of Apan Vayu which work here for the purpose of excretion of solid waste and liquids. The thorough knowledge of Muladhar Chakra along with its structural correlation is very essential for understanding its role and its significance in our body.
