Kundalini science is the backbone of most of the religious beliefs

Travel paths of Ida, Pingala and Sushumna

Friends, Kundalini science is the backbone of all religions. All religious beliefs are based on it. I will explain this principle by giving some examples of some of the traditional beliefs of Hindu religion along with some practical know-how of Kundalini yoga. Although these beliefs look pity, but these convey a great practical message of Kundalini yoga.

Centralizing the Kundalini with the toe touching the heel

According to this belief, if a heel of a man’s foot is hit by another man’s foot from behind, then other heel is also to be kicked in the same way. It makes both people auspicious. In fact, with the hit on the foot of one side of body, the Kundalini becomes more active on that side of the body as the Kundalini pursues sensation. When the same sensation arises in the foot on the other side of the body, then the Kundalini starts going to the other side. This brings her to the center of the body, i.e. the spinal cord. This makes a man balanced, which makes him auspicious in every way. The other man also gets the benefit of this effect, because what’s karma, that’s the fruit. I have seen this happen myself.

One or odd sneeze is inauspicious, but two or even sneezes are considered auspicious

The same Kundalini principle works behind this as well. The sensation of a sneeze activates only one side of the brain. Imagine that the left side becomes active. This means that at that time the thinking of man was limited, linear or logical. Because the two parts of the brain constantly communicate among themselves, it is sure that it will alert the right side. When the second sneeze occurs, the right part of the brain becomes active with it. This makes a man’s thinking unlimited or logical. This causes the Kundalini or Awareness to revolve in both parts of the brain and become centered in the middle of the brain. On this central line, Sahasrara and the Ajna chakras are situated. This leads to fullness, balance and joy.

The inner marriage of the brain with itself is the form of Ardhanarishvara god or Shiva Vivah

The right and left parts of the brain keep on working turn by turn. This happens through the permanent contact route between them. This neuronal pathway is called the corpus callosum. In which people it’s not there due to any disease etc., these continue to work continuously as separate units for a long time. These people are unable to do their work properly due to lack of mutual coordination between both halves of their brain. In normal person, left brain works for some time. It performs everyday tasks efficiently by staying within a rational, limited, and practical scope. But man gets tired of the glare of its thoughts in a short time. Then the body comes under the control of the right brain. Its work style is unlimited, irrational or illogical, emotional, compassionate and investigative in nature like an open sky. Because there is no dazzle of thoughts that bind man in a limited range, so it is having darkness. By staying in it, as soon as the old fatigue of a man’s thought processes is over, this part stops, and the left part starts again. This cycle goes on continuously. The time interval of job transfer may vary according to activity level of a man and his spiritual interest. Now the point is, to make both parts of the brain work together equally. This is the arrival of the Kundalini in the central line or sushumna. With this, the Kundalini Shakti means the vital force is divided equally in both the parts, and makes the whole brain functional. The same is also felt during Kundalini awakening, when instead of a particular area, the whole brain becomes conscious, active and vibrating equally. We can also call this as the internal union of Ardhanarishvara or Shiv Vivaha. It can also be said that the left part of the body is married to the right part. In Hinduism, the left part of Shiva named Ardhanarishvara is shown as female goddess and the half right side as male god. Kundalini picture tries to be in the left brain, that’s why Kundalini has been given a feminine form. You see, everyone has natural instinct to be always submerged inside the pool of glistening thoughts. This instinct is to be overcome through regular practice of shifting awareness to empty sky of right brain. An attempt is made to bring it to the center through Kundalini yoga. A person becomes a complete human being only by the centralization of Kundalini. By this, there is logical practicality in him, as well as irrational emotionality and discovery mind too along with . This means that advaita or non duality is born there, because without advaita it is not possible to coexist with two opposing qualities. In the same way, by directly maintaining the advaita bhava from physiology philosophy or sharirvigyan darshan or Puranas, the clarity of Kundalini is increased in the mind. To keep the two opposing qualities together in the mind or to keep the Kundalini through Kundalini Yoga requires a lot of vital energy. That is why I have laid a lot of emphasis on balanced diet and balanced life for yoga in the last post. In beginning, while doing Kundalini yoga, I used to rotate the Kundalini around the head at the level of the sahasrar chakra and ajna chakra in the brain, as if a farmer is running a plow in a circular field. With this, my whole brain would become active, and Kundalini would be centered with bliss. I also noticed that drawing water from one nose and removing it from the other nose also helps the Kundalini to centralize. This is called Jal Neti. For this, the water should be lukewarm, and mildly salty, otherwise plain and cold water irritates the mucous membrane of the nose.

Ida, Pingala and Sushumna nadis are the only three nadis necessary for Kundalini awakening

During the practice of Kundalini Yoga, there are three sensation paths in the back. The nadis are actually subtle sensory pathways, which can only be experienced. In physical form, I do not see these in my body. They may also be in physical form. This is a research topic. A sensation ascends through the left side of the back, and ends at the command ajna chakra after passing through the left brain. The second sensational path likewise passes through the right part of back and the brain, which is also completed on the ajna chakra. One is Ida and the other is Pingala Nadi. In the middle of these two and right in the middle of the spinal cord, the third channel passes to the Sahasrara, which is in the middle of the back and brain. This is the sushumna channel. Unlike the usual diagrams, I find Ida and pingala more lateral that’s towards the margins of back. May be it a short practice effect. Actually, feeling matters more than the theoretical principles in Yoga. Kundalini awakening is done by the Kundalini climbing through this channel. Even if Kundalini is climbing up through Ida or Pingala channel, it should not be interfered, because Kundalini is beneficial in every situation. She should also not be forced to travel through the sushumna channel, because Kundalini does not like force much. Kundalini is happy with surrender. When she is climbing through Ida or Pingala, along with her meditation, Mooladhara or swadhishthan chakra and ajna Chakra should also be meditated together. With this, she comes into the sushumna channel, or after climbing in the channel of the opposite side in the back for a while, she starts climbing in the spinal cord or sushumna channel. This causes Kundalini to be expressed in Sahasrar. Along with this, there is also the attainment of bliss with the balance of body and mind. Kundalini is not taken down from the Sahasrara to the Ajna Chakra, hence the end of the Sushumna Nadi is depicted in the Sahasrara Chakra. In fact, keeping Kundalini in Sahasrar and awakening it there is the primary goal of Kundalini Yoga. All spiritual qualities are manifested by this. The Sahasrara Chakra connects the body to the universe. It is the most spiritual chakra, which is connected to the soul on one side, and the divine or God on the other side. Sahasrara has great ability to withstand the pressure of the Kundalini. It seems that Sahasrara’s itching is being erased by the Kundalini, and one is having joy of this. However, if there is unbearable pressure, then the Kundalini can be brought down to ajna chakra and to the lower body through the front channel. However, it appears more difficult and messy as compared to bringing down through Ida or pingala. However, it is helped by keeping the inverted tongue touched with the soft palate.That is why the end of Ida and Pingala is depicted in the ajna chakra, but the end of sushumna channel is depicted in Sahasrara chakra. If you concentrate together on the Muladhar and the ajna chakra, then the Kundalini runs through the Ida channel. If you meditate together on the Swadhisthana Chakra and the ajna Chakra, then the Kundalini is transmitted through the Pingala Nadi. This means that meditating ajna chakra, swadhishthan chakra and Muladhar Chakra, all three together would make Kundalini run through the Sushumna channel up to sahasrar or it will reach the sahasrar chakra directly. This is also shown in the picture. You can see that Kundalini has reached the Sahasrara Chakra without the participation of the Sushumna Nadi. Passing through Ida and Pingala, Kundalini join together at the ajna chakra. From there, she climbs up through the left and right brain and gathers at Sahasrara. It also feels like this. A thick wave filled with pressure in the brain on both sides goes up and feels connected in Sahasrara. That’s why both of these short channels are shown in the picture as thick bands. When the Kundalini is to be lowered down from sahasrar chakra through the front channel, it is through these same band shape short channels that it is lowered from Sahasrara to the ajna Chakra, and down from there. You must have noticed, when a man is mentally exhausted, he rubs his forehead, and also constricts his eyes and forehead. This gives him a feeling of passing of some gushing fluid through both sides of the forehead. That makes him mentally rejuvenated. It is experienced by the functioning of these channels. You can experience it by doing this just now. In real and casual practice, none of these channels are experienced only these four chakras together with Kundalini at sahasrar chakra is experienced. The Ida Nadi represents the female part of Ardhanarishvara Dev that’s half man half woman god. The Pingala channel represents right half of his body that’s the male god part. The sushumna nadi signifies the union or marriage of the two parts. Sushumna channel carries the most of the energy from the Muladhar Chakra to the brain. That is why, by meditating on Sahasrara during Tantric Yoga, the Muladhar Chakra becomes fully shrunk and loose. In daily folklore, anyone too must have realized that when the brain gets busy with some other work, the sexual arousal becomes completely calm. Of course, that energy is not seen passing through the spinal cord, but the path of its passage to Sahasrara is through the spinal cord or sushumna only. The flow of energy through the spinal cord is experienced through special and long practice of yoga breathings. That too is experienced only for a few moments, as the experience of falling lightning is momentary. But there is no need to experience it. Important is the Kundalini awakening, which happens without its experience. If you are able to reach the fruit directly, then what is the need to see the tree. Probably it may be the source of origination of this Hindi saying, ” Eat the mangoes, don’t count the trees”. Energy also ascends through the Ida and Pingala channels  that terminate in ajna chakra, but not as much as through the Sushumna channel.

Kundalini is like a bird that likes to fly in the empty and open sky

Friends, yoga or spirituality has been shown to be associated with flying. The description of planes appears in many places in the spiritual scriptures. Yogis have been shown flying in the sky at many places. The soul has been given the metaphorical form of bird. Today we will discuss it scientifically.

There is basically no difference between the soul and the sky

Both are three-dimensional. Both are ubiquitous. During the divine experience of self-awareness, man experiences himself as a glaring, blissful, all-pervasive, and conscious sky. Similarly, at the time of encounter of the departed soul, the man feels himself like the sky. However, it has very few qualities of light, consciousness and bliss. Therefore, that form appears like a glowing mascara. Yet that form is ubiquitous.

Man’s mind has always been tempted to fly in the sky

The reason for this is that the soul is sky-like. Everyone wants to befriend someone like him. That is why every man wants to travel in the sky. This is the reason why you get pleasure sitting in an airplane. When I was sitting in the plane, Kundalini became active with pleasure in my mind. Likewise, I went to an empty field to enjoy kite with my family one day. Children were flying kites in the high sky, and I lay on the ground facing sky over a mat, so that I could see the kite continuously without turning my neck. I kept watching the kite without getting tired for about an hour and a half. During that time Kundalini remained active, with quiet thoughts and old memories slowly creeping with bliss in my mind. Many times I felt like sitting on that kite myself and flying in the high sky. For many days, that bliss remained in my mind, and along with it, the zeal also dominated. There was a good mood in work as well. Similarly, Kundalini bliss increases in the mountains as well. This is because the mountains are also three dimensional like the sky, although slightly less than that. Even in the mountains, man can move in every way. He can also move back and forth, and can also climb up and down.

Kundalini bird starts flying in the sky as it becomes available

When with sharirvigyan darshan or other nondual philosophies, the emptiness of the sky begins to settle in the mind, then Kundalini starts to appear like a flying bird in it. Together, there is bliss as like flying in the sky. At that time the soul is like the dark and void sky of the background, and only the Kundalini expresses like a glistening bird in the sunny sky or as a piece of light. Hence the soul that has been considered as a bird in the scriptures, that’s actually Kundalini. Kundalini is the compressed or short form of the soul. As the snake becomes smaller by coiling into a tight spiral, so too the soul. That is why it is called Kundalini that literally means coiled into spiral. When the Kundalini joins the soul fully and becomes universal, then it is called the opening of the coil of the snake and coming to its real and detailed form. In the same way, when one becomes connected to the sky, the nondual emptiness like the sky starts filling the mind. That also creates the same Kundalini effect, which fills the mind with bliss in the same way. That is why, as mentioned above, in the scriptures, yogis are shown flying in the sky, and planes are described in abundance.

Kundalini is the lamp of the deluded soul

The mind becomes void and calm like the sky due to the meditation of non duality, but its bliss and light disappears. This happens because joy and light are with the thoughts of the mind. They disappear with thoughts. To compensate for these, the Kundalini in the form of a lonely picture becomes active in the mind. It acts like a lamp, and fills the thoughtless mind or soul with joyful light. Through the long-term Kundalini yoga practice, there comes a time when the soul produces its own natural light. Then the light of the Kundalini lamp also fades there. But this happens only at the highest and last level of spiritual practice. This is called asamprajnata samadhi.

Kundalini is the physical representative of the soul

The soul is zero like the sky but full of consciousness as opposed to it, although by being in worldliness, it has to bear its ill effects of illusion. This causes its conscious light to disappear. When man tries to return to his primitive soul with advaita spirit, then Kundalini appears there. This is because the neuronal energy in the brain is gathered from the thoughtless state generated by Advaita, which usually produces thoughts. The easy way to get that neuronal energy out is through Kundalini thought or picture. This happens because for that the brain does not have to decide what the Kundalini picture is like, should it be thought about, what will be the consequences of thinking it, etc. This is because of the long association with the Kundalini picture. This relationship can be as natural as love etc., and also artificial in the form of yoga etc. The same Kundalini picture tries to give the soul the natural qualities of its light, consciousness, etc. At that time the soul is in the form of Yin, and Kundalini as Yang. However this seems to us due to worldly illusion. In fact, it’s just opposite, there is Kundalini in the form of Yin and the soul in the form of Yang. The union of these two is Shivvihiva or Shiva marriage. When it is completed, it is called Kundalini awakening or Self Realization. At that time, the consciousness of Kundalini envelops the whole self-sky, and the two seem to be completely mingled with each other. Kundalini is said to be the physical representative of the soul, because it is undoubtedly a limited and solitary image in the limited brain, and is bound by physical constraints, but it has all the conscious qualities of the soul. The same reminds the soul of its true real qualities. But it happens through practice. That is why Kundalini is always remembered through yoga, love, etc.

Kundalini is Goddess Parvati, the soul is God Shiva, and Kundalini awakening is the Shiva marriage

Friends, this well-known theory was confirmed in the previous post that actually Kundalini evolution has been termed as biological evolution. Kundalini takes birth in Muladhara, grows in various places, and finally awakens in Sahasrara. This is called Shiv Vivah. Just as a married couple travels to different places after marriage organized in a high-quality home, similarly the soul-kundalini couple gets married in Sahasrara and travels on different chakras. It is mentioned in the scriptures that the sages travel in different worlds or abodes. Actually those worlds are in the form of different chakras. Today we will discuss it.

Kundalini is Parvati

The ego is the king. His daughter Sati is the Kundalini. Man is successful in worldliness only through ego. A static image is produced with it, which is Kundalini. King Daksha as an ego does not want his daughter Kundalini to run after the ghostly Shiva and harm her worldliness. In the end he loses and Sati meditates in the form of Kundalini yoga to get Shiva. She goes against her father’s will and marries Shiva, meaning Kundalini wakes up. The ego decreases significantly but does not die. He takes Kundalini away from Shiva and she gets caught in his mess. By the time Kundalini realizes this, her age is complete. Angry Shiva cut the head of Daksha and put the head of the goat there means that the ego does not die even with the body, but it becomes weak. In the next life, Sati or kundalini in the form of Parvati is born to the house of the mountain king. She then meditates to attain Shiva. Kundalini resumes her campaign in the next life. In the metaphoric tale it means that the yogi holding that Kundalini goes to Yogasadhana in the Himalayas to fulfill her ultimate goal in her next birth. There, Indra sends Kamdev to break the penance of Shiva for fear of losing his throne. Shiva burns him with his sight. Here Shiva is the sleeping soul of Yogi. Kamadeva is the metaphor of the world’s colors. If the Yogi’s Kundalini is eager to meet his soul, the world’s colors cannot harm the soul, but are itself eroded. Parvati’s parents initially prevent Parvati from marrying Shiva. Actually, mind and intellect are the symbols of Parvati’s parents. Kundalini originates from them only. They expect only the achievements of worldliness from Kundalini, they do not want to allow them to do asceticism etc. for the attainment of God. In order to discourage Parvati, Shiva also meets her in vile disguise and tells the evils of Shiva. In fact, it is the soul of the initial yogi covered with ignorance who continues to create illusions about God. But Parvati continues to meditate. In the end, Shiva is pleased and marries her, meaning Kundalini is awakened. Then Parvati moves to Kailash, meaning Kundalini settles in Sahasrara. His son Karthikeya is born. He is the ruler of the divine army. His son Ganesha is also born, who avoids problems, and defeats obstacles. In fact, all these works belong to the awakened Kundalini. The divine army is the symbol of the senses of the body here.In the mythological story of Shivpuran, Shiva is depicted as a ghost, to whom Parvati is attracted. Her parents stop her. Actually, the soul covered with ignorance is Shiva, who looks like a dark ghost from outside. But in reality, it is a form of light. Ego and intelligence are the parents of Parvati Kundalini. These prevent her from going towards Shiva.

According to Kalidasa’s Kumarasambhava, Parvati wants to bring Shiva from the desolation of the cave into the mainstream of household life. Kundalini also wishes to awaken the soul or shiva steeped in ignorance. It is simultaneously written that the worldly system had come to a standstill due to the consumption of Kamdev. Then Parvati married Shiva and got him to revive Kamadeva. Then the process of creation started again. As long as the intense Kundalini Yogasadhana is running, the yogi keeps a distance from worldliness. After awakening, Kundalini makes his mind go to run again in the world, albeit with knowledge. This has been called the rebirth of kamadeva.According to the Devi Bhagwat Purana, the mountain king Himalaya and his wife Maina delight Bhagwati Adi Parashakti or supreme goddess mother. She becomes her daughter in the form of Parvati. In fact, the soul covered with ignorance or ego is the mountain king Himalaya here, and the intellect is Maina. When the mother nature is pleased with their good worldly deeds and humanity, she settles in their body permanently in the form of Kundalini.

Parvati pacifies Shiva with her romantic dance, when he performs the devastating Tandava dance. Actually, a person filled with ignorance is disturbed and wandered. He does a lot of wrongdoing. It is Kundalini who shows him sunlight and inspires for good works.

According to Shakta tradition, Shiva resides at Parvati’s house. Here Parvati is considered as the main and Shiva as the secondary. Shiva is angry with their some mutual dispute and he starts leaving the house. Then Parvati creates the dashmahavidyas and closes every door to avoid Shiva’s escape, and thus prevents Shiva from leaving. Actually, apart from Sahasrara, there are various chakras, especially Muladhara as Kundalini’s home. She dominates there. The soul is not very comfortable there. For some reason, Kundalini starts to run away or fade away due to some body’s weakness. Then Kundalini takes shelter of the Panchamakaras and the five gruesome expressions emanating from them. By this, she becomes very strong and prevents the soul from leaving. Because where there is Kundalini, there is the soul. The various doors depicted for his escape are the Kundalini Chakras. The number of Kundalini Chakras has also been reported to be ten in many places.According to a myth, Parvati is taking a bath. She keeps his son Ganesha as the watchman at the door. Ganesha does not even allow Shiva to enter. Shiva gets angry and removes his head from the torso. This makes Parvati very angry with Shiva. Then to appease her, Shiva attaches an elephant’s head to Ganesha. Actually, Kundalini wants that she gets the too dominance in the body. Ganesha is the leader of the senses. Actually, it’s intelligence. He prevents the entry of the dual worldliness that can challenge the dominance of Kundalini. He even prevents the Gods from outside to do so. Due to this, outside religious organizations get angry and punish him. But they have to bow down to the power of Kundalini and resurrect him. Although he is greatly attenuated by those organizations. Shakta cult also states that Shiva without Shakti is a corpse. This is true because without the company of Kundalini, the soul is unconscious and full of darkness. It becomes Shiva only when it is married to Kundalini in Sahasrara. It is evident from all the above facts that Kundalini Yoga is at the root of every mythology related to Shiva and Parvati.
