Kundalini is a concept in Hindu philosophy that refers to a form of primal energy believed to reside at the base of the spine. It is often depicted as a coiled serpent and is associated with spiritual awakening and enlightenment. The awakening of Kundalini is said to lead to heightened awareness and a deeper connection to the universe. Practices such as yoga and meditation are commonly used to awaken Kundalini. When this energy rises through the chakras, or energy centers in the body, it can result in transformative experiences, both physically and spiritually. The process is often described as a journey toward self-realization and inner peace.
