Q: The Mother sent a picture of flowers named by her: “Opening of the centres.” What does the phrase signify? What is meant by “centres”?
The centres of consciousness, the chakras. It is by their opening that the Yogic or inner consciousness develops — otherwise you are bound to the ordinary outer consciousness.
The more they open, the more the consciousness increases. They are reckoned as six usually — or with the one above the head, seven.
– Sri Aurobindo
