I've previously posted several articles about the chakras, or energy centers, and why developing them and keeping them balanced is important for spiritual development.  This time, I'm going to try to illustrate the article with pictures to make the point clearer.  First, this is a typical illustration of normal, well balanced energy centers:



The exact location of each center is not really important, but what is significant in this image is that the centers are separate.  They do not overlap at all.

Now here is a modified version which I crudely modified with my somewhat limited photo editor:

In this modified picture, the energy centers are so full of energy they do overlap.  This is good because it now creates a complete circuit for a free flow of energy throughout the body.  Also, and probably most important of all, when the energy centers of the physical body are supercharged like this, the four energy centers of the spirit body will be highly charged as well, and that will aid in spiritual development and psychic development with the ultimate goal of achieving Christ Consciousness.  
    So how do you get your energy centers charged like that?  While there are several ways to absorb more energy.  Some is absorbed from the food you eat.  Some from animals, plants and people you are in contact with, so go hug a tree!  The most important source of energy to earth is, of course the sun, and the most important source of spirit energy is naturally the Spiritual Sun, also known as the Sun of Righteousness.  The problem is, absorbing energy from the spiritual sun and the physical sun can be dangerous or ineffective if you don't know what you are doing, so you need to work with a trained spiritual instructor.
