Hindu Scripture describing the chakra or subtle energy system of the body

"He, the eternal, dwells concealed in the heart of all beings. Though himself devoid of all senses, he is the illuminator of all the senses, the source of their powers."

"You have no beginning,though you are the beginning of all. It is you who creates, upholds and dissolves the worlds."

"You have no form, even though with the help of Maya,you take on myriads of forms."

"He is the Truth. He is the Supreme Unity without a second. He is Ever-full and Self-manifest. He is Eternal Intelligence and Bliss."
