Ekadasi: Encyclopedia II - Ekadasi - Mind

How, is Ekadasi related to the movement of moon and mind? We have certain psycho-physical and psychological centres called Chakras in the body, or rather in the astral body. The moon influences the Chakras and ultimately the mind. The mind moves through these Chakras. When this takes place consciously, it is called Yoga. When the moon waxes or wanes, the mind is vehemently influenced. Mentally challenged people are very affected on the full-moon and new-moon days. The sun influences the moon and the moon influences the earth. The moon's movement tells upon the movement ...
