@Hamlet : I was describing importance of 7 I guess, Last part of question What are the other societies it had an important place in? This is believed by people who follow yoga or yog-marg as described by Bhagwat-gita for enlightenment.

What this answer needs to do, in order to actually answer the question, is explain why the number seven shows up in places where a belief in "7 chakaras" is not prevalent. | |
