What Is Kundalini?

Kundalini is the inner potential energy which is available in all of us but which is not directly used by us. May be we do not know the way or we are not interested; for various reasons we have not used it. Man as of now is only 'potential'. He has not become 'actual'. The potential becoming actual, seed becoming tree is awakening the Kundalini energy – an extraordinary experience. Inner Awakening! Vedic Tradition puts even God as a stepping stone for awakening an individual's Kundalini.

Why awaken the Kundalini?

If your Kundalini is awakened, it completely reorganizes your whole body. It is almost like rebooting. Not only will you get out of one or two diseases, Kundalini energy brings tremendous positive health. Just not being sick is not health. You will express extraordinary capabilities of your body which you have forgotten.

When you were a child, if you fall not only you do not break your bones, you do not feel the pain. You conditioned yourself to feel the pain. You condition yourself to experience diseases, sickness. The very root of that conditioning will be broken. The pattern which you believe as your body will be broken.

The capacity of your body and your ability to use your body will be expanded beyond your expectation. Your ability to stretch and bend your body expand beyond your expectation. That is health. Experiencing extraordinary, not just ordinary. For example if you are just coming out of your back pain, wheezing, asthma, arthritis or a cancer, that cannot be considered as complete health. That is only a part of your health – diseaselessness is not health. It is only a part of your health. Health is using your body as you want just by will.

You will be completely comfortable with your whole life. You will experience a kind of smooth flow in life. You will have the ability to handle your body as you want, the ability to keep your body as you want.

The second benefit of Kundalini Awakening is the mental health, the feeling of wellbeing. Every day when you wake up, the intense excitement to live that day will happen. The tremendous enthusiasm and joy to live; every day will be an excitement! Every day will be inspiring you, not perspiring you. When one experiences Kundalini Awakening, his whole brain goes through a new ‘rewiring’. New subtle brain grooves start developing in his system.

The non-mechanical parts of the brain get awakened. The brain has two parts – one is mechanical, the other non-mechanical. The mechanical parts control your breathing, your blood circulation, etc. Fortunately God did not hand over all that in our hands. Otherwise we would have forgotten. Mechanical parts are functioning in all normal human beings.

But there are some parts, non-mechanical parts, of your brain like telepathy, teleportation, extraordinary powers. Now so much research is happening in the line of telepathy. The scientific community has already experienced that it is possible. Telepathy is possible. Teleportation is possible! These are the extraordinary powers of your mind. It is your birth right. Your brain is hard-wired to experience the ultimate and play with all extraordinary energies of the cosmos, all energies of the universe.

200 years before, main stream human society did not believe that we can fly. But now millions are flying every day from one place to another! Same way, now main stream humanity may not be able to accept telepathy and materialization but all these are possible. These will become a common part of human life like flying today. Experiencing this extraordinary powers and experiences is the one of the effects of Kundalini Awakening. Awakening your Kundalini energy means awakening all the non-mechanical parts of your brain – unleashing the capacity to face life and the capacity to play with all the extraordinary energies of life!

The third remarkable effect of Kundalini is the extraordinary sensitivity, love and grace that radiates throughout your day in your very body language. This naturally creates beautiful relationships around you - happy, joyful, sweet relationships. Relationship means the grace you bring into the lives of the people with whom you are living and sharing your time, energy, money, house, in any form...They may be your family members, your team members. Sometime they may even be living on some other continent and you may be cherishing the feeling connection with them.

Ultimately, conscious enlightenment is ‘Living Enlightenment’. The real remarkable effect of Kundalini is conscious explosion! The idea you have about you will just go up! For example, if you have only few hundred dollars in your bank balance, you have an idea about you. Suddenly you won a hundred million dollars lottery, within 48 hours you would have completely changed the idea you carry about you. Same way, the awakening of the Kundalini will completely change the idea you carry about you consciously.

As of now, you may be thinking you are body or you may be thinking you are mind. When you think you are body or you are mind, all your desires, greed, fear, everything is just low spectrum, low frequency. The cognitive shift in you is the most extraordinary, ultimate, priceless happening that can happen in any human being's life. This cognitive shift, understanding, realization that you are beyond body and mind, that you are an eternal conscious existence is something extraordinary. This is the extraordinary, remarkable effect of Kundalini Awakening.

When Kundalini is awakened in a human being, he may not even know any technical words like conscious self, ātman, brahman. But he just experiences it.

The cognitive shift in how you take cognizance in your life, the relationships in your life, the world, and God, is one of the remarkable effects of Kundalini Awakening. This brings great human performance benefits. When Kundalini is awakened, you just know you are a leader; your basic existence is success. You may be doing a thousand things but you will know.

When your Kundalini is awakened, when somebody enters your room to talk to you or share some words, you just know what for he has come. You know you are born for success, you know you are a leader by your very existence. The human performance drastically increases with Kundalini Awakening. You will leave a strong impression on anybody who comes across you, anybody who even casually sees you. You will leave a strong print, your presence in them.

Next thing, the Kundalini energy is not bound by the physical distance or time. Time and space are the servants of Kundalini energy. Time is Kāla Bhairava, space is Vīra Bhadra – both of them serve Śiva's embodiment of Kundalini energy. Time and space does not bind Kundalini energy but serve it. A person’s Kundalini can be awakened wherever he may be sitting, whatever time it may be.
