Kundalini yoga and its origins have been shrouded in mystery since the dawn of the Indian civilization. Kundalini energy or the Kundalini shakti, as it popularly known, is a vast potential of the psychic energy that is dormant in us all. As stated in Yoga Kundalini Upanishad (1.82), "The divine power,Kundalini, shines like the stem of a young lotus; like a snake, coiled round upon herself she holds her tail in her mouth and lies resting half asleep as the base of the body." The coiled energy is symbolized as the coiled serpent in three and half circles. Spiralling around the central axis (sacrum or sacred bone) at the base of the spine, this serpent lies with the tail in its mouth. Kundalini sadhana aims at invoking this Kundalini energy. Teachers perfected the art of doing the correct postures and the proper breathing techniques to awaken the true spirits. The objective of the practice of Kundalini Yoga is to awaken the serpent or Sakti. When Kundalini Sakti is ready to unfold, she passes through the spinal chakras to unite above the crown of the head with Sahasrara Chakra. Sahasara Chakra is generally considered to be the chakra of pure consciousness or Siva - the Pure Consciousness or the Omnipotent.
