sudhaadhaaraasaarai carana yougalaanta vigalitaih

(yougalaa starvigaltaih- in some texts)

prapancam sincantee punarapi rasaamnaaya mahasaah

avaapya swaam bhoomim bhujagnibha madhyoustavalayam

swamaatmaanam krutvaa swapiti kulakundey kuharineem

-----

(with) the essence of the nectar that flows from toes of your feet

(you) consecrate the world (and then) you turn back on this vitalised lustre

(and) reach the earth(and) like a serpent coiled around it self

you make your self(and)sleep in your sacred abode in deep slumber

---

This verse tells us the nature of kundalini shakti. She is a coiled serpent resting in her impenetrable abode. She wakes up from this state of hibernation, creates out of her self a consort and sports in the gardens which are the basic constituents of which this world is made. These get vitalised and illuminated by the touch of her feet and the nectar that flows from the toes. Once her sport is over the duality of she and her consort merges into into one. She turns back from the glowing world she energised and enters her abode. The worlds thus manifested is what we and even gods like Brahma, Vishnu and Siva perceive.

Caution is inherent when kundalini is described as a coiled serpent. Its awakening is fraught with danger. Still, there are people with skills,courage and training to handle a serpent. They are drawn because they are fascinated by the power and magnetism of a cobra. But there are many others who just worship cobras. In Soundarya Lahiri, the main stress is on devotion and admiration and a gentle path combined with technique.
