Kundalini (K) does to some extent "reside" in the physical body, how else would yogis and others be able to connect with K through physical exercises ? But K is much more than that. K resides in the mind and the soul/spirit as well, in many ways it resides mainly in the soul, it /is/ the soul, it is the soul activated, but since the mind and the body are extensions of the soul, the outer shell of the soul, K is very clearly felt in the body as well. One way it can be felt is this: a classical sign of K being activated and meeting with resitance in the body (in many ways K cannot be felt, only the resistance to it) are pains that feel like needle stings or touching an electric fence in the legs, especially the left leg or foot. The pains may be caused by spine problems, hip problems, knee problems etc. All physical blockages may create pain. But in addition, the main reason for the block is usually of an emotional and / or spiritual nature. When those have been cleared up, and the block will be gone, K will flow more freely and the pains reside. K works like the spring or autumn winds that turn the water in the lakes over. It brings up spiritual, psychological and / or physical matters up to the surface in order to have them cleaned out by the conscious or unconscious mind. This can be very painful, but when the problem has been cleared up and the karma has been let go of, then it's a relief of indescribable proportions. K actively works to prize you off of the karma you carry. I have felt that as physical and spiritual reality. Yes, as K can cause strong physical problems, anyone with activated K will tell you that the soul and the mind is a large part of it as well. K signs include physical problems but the biggest may well be the spiritual and emotional problems it can cause while butting its head against the karma blocks. K may be the biggest rush anyone can experience, but it's definitely a rush for the soul. >Discrimination and dispassion and lack of attachment and simple living are >unpopular.

Being proud of having K is like being proud of having two arms, you and the entire rest of humanity... K is not about achievement and pride and new age "spirituality" it's about dedication, service and surrender. K is in everything living, also in those where it is not overtly active, because it is that little piece of god/IT left in us which wants to go back to the original source. With K, the urge to get back to IT becomes much stronger, so strong that ppl can be pushed to the point of suicidality. If you have not learned detachment previously, K will teach you detachment, kindly or forcefully. It will teach you how to distinguish between what you should be attached to and what you shouldn't, again forcefully or kindly depending on several factors unknown to me. K may bring on "psychedelic" experiences, but it may also make you extremely sensitive and intolerant to "rush causing" drugs like acohol / LSD etc etc. In fact, taking something like LSD or E while K active would be very very stupid. With K, some feel an increase in libido, especially in the start of the process, but some feel a strong decrease, as the rush of the body offers no match to the rush of the soul caused by K, in addition to the spiritual decisions that K will make for you, which overall will teach you detachment. K can't be activated in someone who is not in some way ready for it. If a rush is all you want, and you approach K for that reason only, chances are K will never get awakened. And yes, K is karma clearing in 5th gear (stick shift ). Best regards, Amanda.
