February 25th 2009 16:00
Kundalini refers to available pranic energy situated at the base of the spine that can be raised through the entire seven chakras. Enlightenment comes about when the prana arrives at the Crown Chakra. Kundalini Yoga is both physical and meditative.
Asana and Pranayama are combined in order to bring about the raising of the pranic energy. Kundalini practice uses Asana, Pranayama, mantra, mudra, and meditation.
In some cases and places, Kundalini participants wear white robes and head attire.
Kundalini yoga cam to the West in 1969, when Yogi Bhajan founded 3HO (referring to 'Healthy, Happy, Holy' Organization). In the Kashmir Shaivism classics, Kundalini has three parts. Universal energy - known as para-kundalini, internal body-mind energy - known as prana-kundalini, and the linking consciousness - known as shakti-kundalini.
“Meditate for peace, tranquility, happiness, joy, and bliss. Feel the energy of the Sun and Moon, the universe, all planets, all gods and goddesses, saints and sages, all good people, all kind people, all grateful people. They are all radiating their energy to you, and you are receiving peace. Fill yourself, and take a part out of the universe and its nectar.” Yogi Bhajan
