What Is Kundalini?
Kundalini is a divinely inspired and ancient power, which has been center stage in spiritual communities since the beginning of the world.
Known as a feminine energy, Kundalini is a divine force that rises through our chakras or energy centers to burn out our old issues, transforming them into wellsprings of light and wisdom. Once the Kundalini life energy, also called a fire or serpent energy, reaches its spiritual goal, our own human and divine selves begin to merge. We now enter the gateway of enlightenment.

This feminine energy is known by many different names throughout the world, including chi in China and ki in Japan. Spiritual people might call it the “goddess within.” Dr. Carl Jung calls this energy the anima. It is thhe caduceus symbol of medicine, the life force in Buddhism, and the source of intimacy in Tantra sex. It is the serpent called Quetzalcoatl among the Mayans. In Hinduism, it is serpent power, personified as Shakti, the Goddess. Most likely you have heard a few of its many other names: Al-Lat, the Great Mother, Ruah, Pachamana, Sophia, life energy, light flame, cosmic energy, divine force, spirit fire, living flame, and mana.
Though known by different names to different groups, Kundalini is always the same force. It is the organic catalyst necessary to unify our body, mind, and soul. It is the divine light that invites poetry into our lives. It is the secret to living this human life as divine beings.
