A Kundalini release can be triggered by meditation, yoga,
breathing exercises, Reiki, healing, tantra, transcendental meditation and other
eastern or new age spiritual exercises. When the kundalini energy is rising
through the chakras, it can cause big problems for the bodily and mental health.
Spiritual kundalini exercises known from the Hinduism, a religion of India that
emphasises freedom from the material world (moksha) through purification of
desires and elimination of personal identity, and Buddhistic religions can be
very dangerous. Kundalini arousal occurs especially as an unintentional side
effect of spiritual exercises whose goal is higher consciousness. Many people
have gone insane from the tremendous kundalini energy and got diagnosis as psychosis,
schizophrenia and other similar mental diseases. According to Indian tradition,
man has seven chakras (centres of energy). The Kundalini energy is said to be
sleeping, coiled like a serpent, in the lowest chakra, called the root-chakra.
When this force is awaken, it begins to rise up through the spine. The awakening
occurs through yoga, meditation, breathing exercises etc., and was called "the
shorter way to God" by the old practicians. One was well aware though, that
it was a risky journey. The energy activates all chakras, and it was therefor
important that the practician performed purification exercises, because if the
chakras were filled with impurities, the ravaging of Kundalini was very painful.
The sense of these exercises is to reinforce the nervous system and the glands,
so that they can bear the tremendous powers that are activated. This is done
through exact bodily movements and positions, manipulation of the respiratory
organs, mantras, i.e. sacred phrases, and is finally finished off with meditation.
The fire of Kundalini is then said to be able to automatically annihilate mental
and bodily impurities, as for instance, earthly desires, old "garbage" from
this, and previous lives. The personal Ego must be broken down. It is recommended
to keep away from sexual relations, in order to keep the energy, and to be able
to increase it. There are three channels, nadis, in the spine. Pingala, the
right, is dynamic, masculine, fire, solar energy and creative. Ida, the left,
is passive, feminine, cool, lunar-energy and relaxing. When these two are in
equilibrium, the life-energy prana is in equilibrium. And then the Kundalini
force can raise up through the sushumna, the central channel, which is the high-voltage
power line. This is the Royal Way. If the Kundalini-fire is triggered in the
wrong way, it can get out of control and break down the entire nervous system.
The first feeling of ecstasy and rapture, is quickly replaced by lack of life-energy,
listlessness, depression, agony, disorder and experiences of being attacked
by invisible evil powers, or one is hit by the "I am Messiah-"syndrome. At worst
one gets insane, or that the ravage of the Kundalini-fire is experienced as
if one is burnt up from inside, and it can even cause death, or the opposite:
one congeals, i.e. becomes paralysed. Correctly activated, under the control
of a Master, Guru, who has gone through the process himself with a happy ending,
one can reach the highest God-power and get higher consciousness, supernatural
powers and peace of mind. The Kundalini energy "the white Cobra", then has reached
the Crown Chakra, and you have attained samadhi, i.e. enlightenment, and one
have been initiated into the Truth. Shakti, the creative feminine force, has
been united with the masculine Shiva, the pure consciousness. The individual
I has been merged into the Brahman, i.e. one has become at one with God, and
no longer needs to incarnate on Earth. The coalescence is an enormous inner
experience of light. This is a brief summary of the most occurring theories
in Indian books.
