Kundalini awakening
Life is completely unpredictable and any kind of sudden spiritual crisis can distress us. The Upanishad mentioned the concept of Kundalini, which stands for “circular”, meaning that the energy of the human body lies like a snake at the bottom of the spine. This energy gets activated and flows in the upward direction through the seven energy centers lying in our bodies which results in spiritual awakening of consciousness known as Kundalini awakening. This sudden change can result in happiness for some and depression for others. The awakening is not based on any culture or religion; it comes naturally to certain human beings which raises their level of consciousness.
Reason for the Awakening
The topic of kundalini awakening has been present in the world from the 8th century, which means that the experience of enlightenment has been felt by many. The possible logic behind its awakening includes traditional practices like meditation. It is said that a regular yoga practitioner has the ability to activate their kundalini. Although it is not mandatory that only yoga can activate the chakras.The enlightenment can be achieved while doing rigorous work, by the use of drugs, through sexual involvements, accident or any trauma, different life events and yoga training.
