Kundalini

What is Kundalini?

The Sanskrit word “Kundalini” signifies the rising energy or consciousness at the base of the spinal cord, coiled like a serpent. 

Scientists have been innovating new technologies, and yogis from ancient India researched them and used them as a medium of self-realization.

Yoga philosophy defines the awakening of Kundalini power as a natural phenomenon after practising specific asanas, pranayamas, bandhas, and mudras.

One of the ancient texts, Purush Sukta, describes Kundalini’s energy as:-

There are thousands of natural powers in the human body system; if they are fully awake, we will forget this materialistic world and the temporary enjoyment of our senses.

Does Kundalini Shakti exist?

It is an eternal superpower; this energy triggers the formation of a new child in the womb and then coils 3 ½ times at the base of the spine to store the energy in the static field until we attain death. It is super consciousness, knowledge, and a universal truth.

According to Swetashvaropanishad,

“Na tasya roganam na jara na mratyu praptasyah, Yogaganimayam sariram.”  It refers to ‘Nachiket’ Agni or fire. Whoever attains the state of ‘Tri-Nachiket” can be free from the life cycle. Their bodies exist Yoga-Agni, and they do not have old age, ailments, or death.

How many stages of Kundalini Awakening are there?

There are three stages of Kundalini’s awakening energy:-

  1. Kumari(Teenage),
  2. Kumaravastha(Adulthood),
  3. Jagrat(Awaken stage).                                                                                                                                   When it awakes, it makes a mild noise. First, lord Brahma experienced this stage of awakening Kundalini.

There is a descriptive presentation about awakening Kundalini rising in Hatha Yoga. During our YTTC in Rishikesh, India, and yoga retreats, we offer several Yogasanas, breathwork, lockings, gestures, and Shatkarmas to raise it.

Tantra Yoga fully acknowledges this spiritual movement. Buddhism, Taoism, Native American, and indigenous societies also have great versions of Kundalini’s existence.

How to awaken the Kundalini Energy?

Kundali-ni is a myth for unaware people; spiritually awake people sense it is asleep on the tailbone. 

Dhyan Yoga is the best way to awaken the Ajna Chakra. When a practitioner continuously concentrates on this channel, the heat appears, which helps activate Shusumna Nadi, which follows to revive it.

Two main asanas, Siddhasana and Vajrasana, are persuasive enough to create Mool Bandha. Apana Vayu helps activate the Manipur chakra with force. It moves fast throughout the body and purifies the pitta and kapha doshas.

It starts after the practice of yoga classes. A practitioner should sit in Siddhasana with his left foot’s heel pressing the sacrum and his right leg on top of the left. 

The body needs to be straight and hands-on with the knees. It happens because it expands the veins when the spine is straight, and Mooladhara Chakra presses automatically. 

After one month’s continuous practice of Siddhasana, have Siddhis and awaken it.

                                 Which Mudra activates Kundalini?

There are 14 Mudras to awaken this divine power after practising Kundalini yoga and other practices.

These movements push this energy toward the Sahastrara chakra, where a Sadhaka attains the vairagya or the state of detachment.

These mudras or gestures are as follows:-

  • Mahamudra;
  • Maha bandha;
  • Mahavedha;
  • Viprit-karni Mudra;
  • Tadan mudra;
  • Utpidana;
  • Manduki;
  • Shakti Sanchalini mudra;
  • Vajroli;
  • Khechari;
  • Sambhavi;
  • Moolbandha;
  • Jalandhar bandha;
  • Uddiyana bandha.

What is the power of Kundalini?

Kundalini Awakening can accomplish a wide range of positive and negative phenomena. It
travels fast at 345000 miles a second, while light travels at 185000 miles a second. 

It brings an excellent serenity to a spiritual person, while this extreme force may also destroy an unconscious person.

This is a powerful attunement done by a Siddha yoga master. In some cases, it is also possible that a Sadhaka can activate this energy with his efforts.

Only a master of occult science can guide you in arousing the tremendous force of Shaktipat

Kundalini awakening is a profound change in a person. It requires a high sensibility and should always be done under an experienced yoga guru.

Otherwise, it may flow downwards and intensify both the desire-nature and the activity of the sexual organ.
