This edition is the original publication of Rosslyn Bruyere's fine work. It was titled 'Volume 1,' which indicates that a greater volume of work was planned. I have only seen this one book by Bruyere, and, to me, it is a wonderful complement to Barbara Brennan's 'Hands Of Light.' Each book deals with the same basic material, but each healer/researcher takes the material in slightly different directions.

Rosslyn Bruyere is perhaps the better teacher of the two. Her explanations, diagrams, and exercises give a thorough and clear introduction to the chakras. It is a wonderful starting place but also a book to return to again and again, giving more each time.

Here is a part of the description from the back of this initial edition of Bruyere's book so that you know a bit more what to expect:

'Wheels of Light: A Study of the chakras' explores the "subtle energies" within. This multi-volume work represents the most comprehensive description of the subtle energy or chakra system ever written. Each of the seven primary chakras is in fact a "wheel of light", a spinning electromagnetic field of color. Together these fields generate the greater auric field. From a antiquity there have been various descriptions of this field of energy or light which emanates from the physical body. But it has only been recently that science has confirmed the existence of the aura and of the subtle "energies" which generate it. Volume One explores the basic nature of all the chakras and takes an in-depth look at the first. The vision is as ancient as the esoteric mystery schools of antiquity and as contemporary as the most modern scientific laboratories. The journey is one of promise and discovery..."
