KUNDALINI

KUNDALINI
   feminine serpent power according to traditional HINDU physiology which plays an important role in TANTRA. It is believed to coil itself around the LINGAM thus preventing the movement of vital powers towards the head. When awakened by YOGA, tremendous heat is produced and the YOGI can gain purification and power which ultimately results in LIBERATION. Kundalini is also identified with the coiled serpent power which gave birth to the UNIVERSE.
