It is a divine force and a female one. However, Kundalini is not just limited to the above. The Kundalini Shakti on activation rises up the spine and then unites with the universe. This is the ultimate moment when you experience an out-of-body experience. The female energy merges with the male energy, leading to a divine union. Let us find out about the energy in more detail.  What Is Kundalini Energy? You will be bewildered to know, that Kundalini energy has been present inside human bodies, since ancient times. We are born with it. However, many of us spend an entire lifetime, without knowing that exists in the first place. We try to look for happiness, perfection, and creativity outside when these are built in our psyche.  Kundalini energy happens to be a strong female transformative force that has been studied for centuries. After its awakening, the energy travels through the energy centers of the body which are termed chakras. These are a part of the astral body. You can awaken the kundalini Shakti through various means, like asanas, meditation, breathing patterns, and chanting. Additionally, a Guru can also activate this underlying power through ‘Shakti path’. Kundalini Yoga is one of the practices that mainly focuses on the harnessing and proper utilization of this power. Physical poses or asanas, breath manipulation, and meditation perform very important tasks to activate and channelize this energy. Asanas facilitate the stimulation of the chakras, breath manipulation facilitates the movement of energy, and meditation helps in the final activation.  The Seven Chakras Of Kundalini Yoga  You have to study the Kundalini chakras system associated with the Kundalini energy, to understand this entire aspect in a better manner. The chakras are related to various aspects like physical strength, emotions, and spiritual experiences. There are seven important chakras in the body.
