The result was delete. The argument that this lacks reliable sources and so should not be merged is convincing. Sandstein 12:33, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge with article on chakras - the article on transpersonal chakras is only a brief one-sentence article, and it does not make sense for it to have its own article, as this only makes it harder for one to follow what chakras are. Can I also say that for a long time I was a member of the Transpersonal Section of the British Psychological Society, and I do not remember hearing the term "transpersonal chakras" used at any of their conferences.

@Vorbee: Why should this article be merged with chakras if there are no sources to back it up? Wqwt (talk) 08:42, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It does have a source - it cites a work by Dale. Vorbee (talk) 13:55, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is that a reliable source? The book is published by Llewellyn Worldwide, self-described as "As the world's oldest and largest independent publisher of books for body, mind, and spirit, Llewellyn is dedicated to bringing our readers the very best in metaphysical books and resources. Since 1901, we've been at the forefront of holistic and metaphysical publishing and thought. We've been a source of illumination, instruction, and new perspectives on a wealth of topics, including astrology, tarot, wellness, earth-based spirituality, magic, and the paranormal. From e-books to tarot-themed iPhone apps, Llewellyn has embraced the Digital Age to continue our mission."

• Delete too vague to be merged. Nothing of any real value, "several chakras" (how many?) that "some contemporary esotericists" (who are these unnamed people and are they reliable?). Dom from Paris (talk) 12:35, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
