 Kundalini
What Is the Kundalini?
by Gururattan K. Khalsa, Ph.D
Kundalini is the energy of our soul.
Kundalini is the energy of consciousness.
Kundalini is the awareness of the higher self.
Kundalini is our emanation of infinity.
Kundalini is the energy of the cosmos within each individual.
Kundalini is our creative energy
Kundalini is imagined as a coiled serpent lying asleep at the base of our spine.
Kundalini is the dormant energy within us that expands our awareness.
Kundalini is the greatness of which we are each capable.
When we tap our Kundalini what do we become aware of?
We become aware of our creative capacities and our radiant caliber.
We become aware of our finite relationship with infinity.
Kundalini makes it possible for us as humans with finite identities to relate to
our infinite identities.
What makes it possible to experience Kundalini energy?
When the glandular system is activated and the nervous system is strong
the energies of the two systems combine to create
a movement or flow in the spinal fluid
a sensitivity in the nerve endings.
The " brain in its totality receives signals and integrates them."
What is the result?
A new clarity expands our perceptions.
We understand the effect and impact of an action before we take it.
We are at choice whether to act or not to act.
Awareness brings choice.
Choice brings freedom.
Is Kundalini energy necessary?
We cannot live without a constant flow of Kundalini energy.
The difference is the amount of the flow.
When there is an abundant flow of Kundalini
our mind awakens from its long nap
we stop living in imaginary realities
we become committed to our purpose and our service
we enjoy the abundant pleasures of life.
*** The Ascent and the Descent ***
The Kundalini is always present as an innate part of who we are.
The human system was built to sustain the awakening of Kundalini energy.
The question is "Are we using the full extent of this capacity?"
The energy of the Kundalini is released from the navel center.
It rises to the crown chakra at the top of the head.
The energy then descends down the chakras to the base of the spine.
After reaching the root chakra it returns to the navel center.
The ascent is the path of enlightenment.
It is the experience that the reality of God exists within each of us.
The raising of the Kundalini is the uncoiling of God consciousness.
It is witnessing the reality of the unlimited power that is the essence of our soul.
The descent is the path of manifestation.
The chakras open in the descent.
As the chakras open
our essence is consolidated into our character
our gifts are integrated into our behavior and actions
our talents become a practical part of our human life.
The descent of the Kundalini is awakening to our potential.
It is bringing the awareness of God or Christ consciousness into the activities of
our daily lives.
The path of enlightenment is the raising of the Kundalini.
The path of manifestation is the descent of the Kundalini.
The path of liberation is both the ascent and the descent.
The path of liberation is the completion of the full cycle.
Kundalini is about
enlightenment
manifestation
and liberation."] |
