' Kundalini ' literally means, 'coiled one'. The Oriental (Eastern)

Spirituality defines 'Ananda' as Bliss; the letter 'A' symbolising

Shakti . Kundalini is the primordial ' Shakti' or cosmic energy that

lies coiled in the muladhara chakra (Base or Root Chakra)

corresponding to the base of spine, in your body.

The cosmic energy is your life force, which keeps your body alive,

and can be pictured as a coiled snake living at the base of the

spine.

When awakened, Kundalini begins to move upward within the sushumna,

the subtle central channel, piercing the chakras and initiating

various yogic processes, which bring about total purification and

rejuvenation of the entire being. When Kundalini enters the

sahasrara ( the Crown Chakra) region, the spiritual center in the

crown of the head, the individual self merges in the universal Self

and attains the state of Self-realisation.

The goal of ' Kundalini Yoga ' is to prepare the body for the life

force by causing energy to travel up through the spine, where it

will stimulate various chakras (emotional centers throughout the

body). Kundalini yoga can be profoundly emotional - it can allow you

to see what's really going on in your life; if helps you become more

aware of negative thought patterns and make the choice to change

them.

 

When Kundalini awakening happens to people who are not on a

spiritual path, the experience can leave them fragile and

fragmented. As the Kundalini process involves a redefinition and

reintegration of self, it adds extra pressure when people wish to

suppress the transformation and insist to lead their lives normally.

Of greatest benefit is a supportive framework, which can allow

people to make sense of the intricate connection between spirit and

the movement of physical energy in the body, rather than fearing

they are going insane. It is important to understand that Kundalini

awakening is a process that taps into the blueprint for higher

consciousness, which is latent within every human.

While the enormous changes associated with a spiritual awakening may

demand psychological and social adjustments, they are not in

themselves necessarily indicative of illness. Communication and

connection with others who can provide support and a meaningful

context for understanding the process reduces the isolation and

overwhelm and can help to minimise the disturbance. Someone who has

the personal qualities of creative adaptation to change and a

flexible mental framework is more likely to weather the changes with

grace and style than those who are rigid in their beliefs and world

view.

 

 

Essential precautions

When practising for example kundalini yoga, be careful about these

points:

 

There may be heat developing in the body. You may wish to go slow on

the exercises a little for some days.

 

There may be tingling sensations in the spinal column, palms of the

hands or soles of the feet. This is due to energy rising and freely

circulating leading to opening of sleeping charkas.

 

You should not bother too much as it will gradually subside.

Negative thoughts and desire to express violent emotions. This is

part of the energy rising and cleansing process.
