Channels

In addition to the countless meridians, there are channels in the body. The channels differ from the meridians in size and in the nature of their energies. Depending on the way of awareness, their number is different. The main channels in the body, through which energy circulates, pass through the arms (from the center of the palms to the area of ​​the shoulder joints); through the legs (from the center of the feet to the iliac bones); on both sides of the central meridian (from about the lower abdomen to the collarbones); through the spine (from the coccyx to the middle of the forehead).

On the surface of the physical body, the channels do not cut, but go outside the physical body into the space of the second attention body (or the energy body), integrating the awareness of the second and first attention bodies. From the point of view of the tantras, there are many more channels connecting the first and second attention bodies, but the ability of their awareness requires particular skills and training.
