Kundalini Meditation


The word Kundalini derived from Sanskrit language, which literally means coiled. According to Yoga scripture a serpent is coiled at the base of the spine. If we do surgery we cannot find serpent, it carries symbolic meaning. Kundalini Meditation is the process of awakening such dormant energy centers of our body by opening these seven chakras and generating kundalini shakti inside body.

Yoga scripture says at base of the spine (also called Muladhar Chakra) tremendous source of energy lies which is latent or not in awakening form.

Kundalini meditation is technique of awakening that hidden energy for the purpose of reaching spiritual enlightenmentor awakened stage. That energy is subtle and it can be transformed from base of the spine (Muladhar Chakra) to top of the head (Sahasrar Chakra) through spinal cord.

Methods can be different such as Yogasanas (Yogic postures), Pranayama (breathing practice), and Mantras (chanting). By purifying Chakras we can achieve health, happiness and creativity.
