It's not in the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita or Yoga Sutras. > Where is it? In the Bhagavad Gita it is referred to allegorically (as that is what the Gita is, an allegory) as the 5 Pandavas which represent the 5 lower chakras: Sahadeva=coccyx center=restraint (muladhara chakra). Nakula=sacral center=obedience (svadhishthana chakra) Arjuna=lumbar=Self control (manipura chakra) Bhima=dorsal=vitality (anahata) Yudisthira=cervical=calmness (vishuddha) When these powers or 'warriors' come to the aid (are unfolded) of the chela or 'Arjuna' they fight the evil minded sons of the blind King Dhritarashtra; lust, greed, avarice and so on.....I could go on but you get the idea. The Gita is an alegorical story about the internal battlefield (kurukshetra) of man and his struggle with evil (delusion) and the final victory by ascention to Spirit and the destruction of evil.....
