Kundalini is a name for the cosmic energy that is said to permeate the entire universe – personified by an inner feminine psychic being called Kundalini (the Soul), which we perceive from a sensory context in all our relationships.
By keeping us sensory active through our chakras, she rises and becomes a conscious personality within us.
Using her as a reciprocal image for interior life. Each chakra is a closed awareness process that takes place in a loop that repeats itself. Each loop has an image. And each image or set of images arranges certain types of perceptions as aspects of the inner context of one or more existing active chakras. And some types of imaginations are repetitions and spontaneous impressions, ”ideas”, of a certain theme linked to the image of a chakra in ascending or descending order. From the body, upwards towards the subtle body and the path that is towards our inner true Nature and the person we are in there, or vice versa, it can be experienced as a descent. In psychic pain. Like ”Hell”. It depends on where we start. In our imaginations. In the head or in Mother Earth. In nature. I believe that many Western mental illnesses can be traced to an ignorance of the notions that emerge in relation to these chakras, because psychic life require our attention to the images it produces whether we acknowledge it or not. Indigenous people are often well grounded in the Great Mother. They also often already have a natural relationship to our psychic life in one form or another of our common imaginary field.
But the most important thing in this is that everything is in the field of imagination of humanity. That our human form is a notion in a world of notions. That’s our relationship with them. And in our notions of a path, all the chakras also seem to overlap and merge into each other. We are neither our own nor others’. We have a relationship with their motives, and their content along the way. A little worn out outside of this context, but it is the ”path” that is important. It creates meaning out of itself. At first though, when imagination suddenly becomes a living part of our conscious lives, the chakras intentionality also all exist at the same time, and merge into each other as this imaginary background, or origin to our perceptions. We have all been this 4-5 year old becoming part of this vivid imagination, of its ”initiation”. Of separating the world into two living aspects of reality.
