You mean like....scientific studies... right? Tons of studies Actually western science has *JUST* started getting into it and actually researching it. For the longest time they claimed it was a load of crap and there was no proof that they even existed. (This without ever trying to find proof) Whereas eastern medical science has been utilizing it and benefiting from it for thousands of years without question. Go figure... It is now *almost* considered valid to talk about chakras in western medicine, since they have been measured. Stuff like this? Or stuff like this.. This - http://www.robertkirby.com/publicat/articles/archive/a02.html Or these things... http://www.cihs.edu/whatsnew/motoyama_book.asp http://www.intent.com/nfgc/beverly_rubik.html http://www.shareintl.org/archives/health-healing/hh_adjenergetic.html http://216.239.41.104/search?q=cache:3Vd...en&ie=UTF-8 http://www.siconaqua.com/report.php?lng=e This guy here is pretty insightful- http://www.geocities.com/octanolboy/bpweb/Chpt06.htm There really is a plethora of information and tons of studies. I was COMPLETELY overwhelmed filtering through all of it... I am positive I have only nicked the tip of the iceberg Obviously this is something that has enough scientific validity to be considered worthy for futher research Even the military has gotten into it - http://www.newsmakingnews.com/alexandedatadump.htm Chakras are bioelectric energy...so they can be measured by current technology. Proof exists. Skeptics can bite me. - Fin

Yes, of course there have been studies. Of course, only measurable aspects can be measured. The mind-body correlates, not the metaphysical assumptions about the origin of Being. One of the first studies that is in book form is called 'Yoga: A Scientific Evaluation' by Kovoor T. Behanan, which was published in 1937 and is published by Dover.
