Hello! I am new here. Has anyone had a kundalini awakening? I am new to yoga too. Where should I start? My aim is the awakening of kundalini.
Thank you.
I would like to know if it is possible to have the breathless state while in a daily function, like driving or walking? The reason I am asking this is that I go through this all the time now. I get deep into thought and the world around me disappears and I forget to breath, it's like my brain doesn't send the signal to do it. But as I've gotten older, it is now causing chest pains. I've been checked by doctors and they find nothing wrong with my heart. They are telling me it is anxiety or panic attacks but usually shortness of breath or hyperventilation occurs after the panic attack not before. I don't feel anxious or panicky. I've done this since I was a young child, I am an INFJ personality and I do this without even trying, it has come naturally to me. I have never known about Kundalini and stumbled upon the breathless state through research. I need help so I can stop the chest pain.
I had that same jet plane thing happen to me a few years ago. I was outside. With other people. No one else heard it. It was exactly as you described. At the time I wasn't doing any yoga or other particular spiritual training. So not sure why I heard it, but once I realized it wasn't really a plane/jet, I assumed was some sort of message from God and just accepted the experience. I'm not really thrilled about the tongue up the throat method of reaching source as my tongue is short and I can't even reach very far back with it much less have enough to accomplish the end result, so am searching for a different method. I don't understand all that you are saying in your explanation but will keep picking through it until perhaps I do. If have any advice to offer, I welcome it.
thanks for info I would like to read more articles lik this
I have just joined today because I am very interested in the video that I watched on youtube. The content explanation is very parallel to what I have come to know through my own experience. Not the "hows to's" of obtaining the enlightening experience but the actual "enlightening" experience that I have experience personally. The yoga lingo is foriegn to me as is the steps as to how to achieve the kundalini activation. However, the experience that I have had is very much in alignment with the explination of what one desires to experience through the steps and practices of kundalini yoga. Which brings me to my questions.
Without the awareness of these practices how is it possible that I experienced the experience and did it without all this "Doing" ? It was spontaneous. I was in this state of being for 11 days. I was not completely here. The part of me that was here was as if it barely existed. I gave only the necessary energy to this body that I felt was necessary so to not depart from the experience (which I was in control of) to function on the level that I chose for that part of me to function. My body did not need food. My body did not need attention. It sat in a semi conscious state while the larger part of myself sat in all that is. The uphoria was more than I can explain. The knowing was so complete. I sat in that space in utter awe. The Truth was evident and all that (Was Not) was made evident. My experience was one with source. I completely in alignment with Truth. Coming from the experience was a reality adjustment process. I was able to see life through a new perspective and it is absolutley perfect as it is, where before I was so lost, lonely and wounded by my life experiences. I did find that I could not plan a future or dream of a future due to knowing how the ego played a huge part in the past. I seemed to have lost the motivation that I had before, seeing through the egos perspective. It seemed purposeful seeing that we live ourlives by the auto pilots guidence. But now 2019 my motives are based on the Truth that I experienced in that experience. I am aware and grounded in the Truth. When life hits me I now can recenter and see the experience for what it is.
Back to my question.
Is all this is necessary to achive enlightenment?
I would say the practcce of kundalini yoga is more of a dicipline ritual pointing to a possible experience. How many actually have the experience? I would like to have the experience again not know exactly how it came about. Truly the experience answered all of my questions and filled my heart and soul with undeniable Truth. I cannot imagine being in this would and not of it all the time. They would have to put my body in a home somewhere because it would be useless lol. Id choose to stay in that state of beingness. If I were able to balance there and here I would be in such a vibration that I would not be recognized by anyone. Its that profound!!! Open to opions and advice or explination. Even questions.
So... Having said all that. Not knowing the verbige would you consider the experience that I had to be what the kundalini yoga is pointing too? And how did I have the experience not having done anything to recieve it.
I must state that I was in a state of complete resistance and I had surrended. The only intention I had was to recieve the Truth from a place I personally could not deny. I was asking WHY? I got the answers. Loud and clear and was expised to more than I have the vocabulary to explain.
I was meditating out on my balcony and the thought came to me that Moses never wandered around for 40 years in the wilderness waiting for the people that made the golden calf to die.
Moses Meditated for 40 years until his desires to experience the physical world died.
And so what was Moses doing during this time when he was "Wandering around in the Wilderness?"
Specifically, how did he Raise The Serpent that Jesus taught about?
So I resolved to read The Old Testament for the first time to figure out what I was suppose to do in meditation.
Moses never shook a stick at the ocean and parted it in two
There is No Doubt in my mind that Moses' parting of the Red Sea is a Metaphor for Khechari Mudra
Before Moses could make it to The Promised Land of Milk and Honey (absorb the hormones his Pituitary and Pineal Glands make), he first had to part the Red Sea or part his mouth by raising his tongue into Khechari Mudra
In doing so he destroyed the Pharaoh's Army (Desires of his Mind)
The Ark of The Covenant is the Nasal Pharynx
It is where GOD meets the Soul
Literally it is where GOD divides into Male and Female Components (Time and Space)
It is also where they are restored and joined back together which is why Jesus referred to it as The Bridal Chamber
The Ark of The Covenant is said to contain 3 things; the Rod of GOD (your tongue), the Golden Chalice (The cup like bone called the Sella Turcica that houses the Pituitary Gland and the Manna from Heaven which is the Amrita or Milk and Honey
While wandering around (Meditating), GOD instructs Moses to Kill various tribes
Of course this is a Metaphor for dissolving desires of the Mind as one of the commandments is Thou Shall Not Kill
GOD would be quite the hypocrite if this was taken literally as some atheistic pseudo intellectuals that criticize The Bible would have us believe
What made reading the parable about Moses fruitful was learning that the “Israelites” would win the battle when Moses would Raise the Rod of GOD and strike the rock of Horeb also referred to as the “flinty rock” and water (Amrita) would come forth for the Israelites to drink
Of course this refers to using the tongue to push on the bone (Crista Galli) that I shifted and talked about a few posts back
Also interesting was that GOD punished Moses for Striking the Rock the second time instead of talking softly to it and so Moses was not allowed to enter the Promised Land
Moses obviously made it to Heaven as when Jesus took James, John, and Peter up the mountain they met Moses, Elijah and GOD
And so this is just another way of stating that individuality is dissolved when you reach the final stages
There is No salvation for the individual as the dissolution of the False concept of individuality is the liberation and the return to Being GOD
What is important to take away from this is what is meant by talking softly to the rock
I believe this refers to chanting OM at Kutastha (The Third Eye or Optic Thalamus) as I described in the last post (#181)
Many Gurus teach about chanting OM and focusing on The Third Eye
As I've written about before, Lahiri Mahasaya wrote that after many days of practicing Kriya the heart stops via The Third Eye
Via the Eye, there is Stillness on the left side of the chest; it is not possible to see that. There is Spontaneous joy. After practicing Kriya for many days, that Stillness in The Heart comes about Automatically. It is not possible to get there by Force, because it is Formless / Inexpressible Substance. It is devoid of form, name and other such things. Thus, Its Nature is Silence – this is how Brahman Is. When this state becomes permanent, the individual soul (jiva) attains liberation while in the body, and goes about living life abiding in the Nature of the Self.
I also read the book The Yoga of the 18 Siddhas which are the teachings of 18 Realized Masters
Half of the book is 9 of them going on and on about how important Khechari is
The importance of Bhastrika Pranayama to open up the 3 Granthis (knots) was also discussed
It is necessary to open these 3 Knots before the Kundalini can rise
Afterwards you should sit in Padmasana (Full Lotus), while in the Breathless State and contract Mula Bandha while chanting Na Ma Si Va Ya Om up the spine with a syllable in each chakra carrying Om up to the Crown
In the book Letters from the Yoga Masters it is written (page 85):
Bhastrika should be done after Nadi Shodhana, suryabheda
Bhastrika is essential after the above purificatory pranayamas to open the granthis or knots.
This is the only way to break the granthis easily
Later in the book a letter from Sivananda taught Udghata Kriya which is a form of Bhastrika in which you breathe rapidly in and out 10 times out of the right nostril and the last inhale slowly and then slowly exhale out of the left nostril followed by then inhaling rapidly breathing in and out 10 times from the left nostril until finally exhaling slowly out the right nostril and repeat for up to 10 minutes
I saw a video where Sahguru (Isha) said that he went into Samadhi practicing Bhastrika
He practiced Bhastrika by double inhaling out of one nostril chanting Shi Va and double exhaling out the other nostril chanting Sham Bo
I practice this on my exercise bicycle and correlate the breathing with pushing down on the pedals with my feet
10 minutes of this clears out all of the mucus in your breathing chambers
My favorite practice in my sadhana now is chanting Gayatri Mantra with my practice
I will exhale out the left nostril going down my chakras with Om Bhur Bhuvah Swaha, lock into Maha Bandha and then perform Nauli rolling my stomach to Tat Savitur Varenyam, lock out my pelvic floor and inhale through my right nostril with Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi, and finally practice dynamic jalahandra bandha while chanting silently Dhiyo Yo Nah Pracho Dayat
While rolling my head around in dynamic jalahandra bandha I flex mula bandha at the bottom of the movement while all the time focusing on my Ajna Chakra
My tongue is pressing against and rolling around the Crista Galli for both Nauli and Jalahandra Bandha
After balancing the Ida and Pingala, I have been inhaling mostly through the Right Nostril and exhaling out the Left (Surya Bheda Pranayama)
Jesus telling his disciples to throw their net on the right side of the Boat and only then do they catch fish makes me think of Surya Bheda)
It is important to acknowledge each Chakra as you go up and down the spine with the Breath
Energy goes wherever you place your attention
Another practice I like to do is roll off 100 Kapalabhati (Breath of Fire), 50 Bhastrikas, exhale into Maha Bandha, roll off 10 to 20 Naulis, tighten the pelvic floor and inhale into Shanmuki Mudra
From the book Tirumantiram Page 127 (Tirumular was one of the 18 Siddhas)
Technique of Kechari Yoga #800
On the square plank of Muladhara,
Where Jiva the washerman performs the cleansing act
Erect bunds that the sluices leak not (apana)
And then let in the heavenly stream for the lake to fill
Thus sit looking skyward
Be thou rid of impurity, allImmortality in Yoga Way #801
Alternating breath's course from left to right and vice versa,
They who can force breath through spinal Sushumna
Shall know tiring none;
They can abolish sleep for ever
And attain GOD awareness
They die not;
Immortal they shall be.Nectar in Kechari Mudra #802
If skillfully rubbed by the tongue's tip
The mystic nectar will begin to ooze;
When it comes, with care manage it
That you may swim in Moon's Region mystic;
And that which flowed and roared
May preserved be.
It is essential to contract and hold the pelvic floor (Mula Bandha) before inhaling to make Apana rise and connect with Prana
These combined Pranas will then enter Sushumna rise up the spine and stimulate the glands to start producing Amrita
I bought a pair of Wooden Olymic Rings and I can not recommend them enough
They only cost $30 on Amazon and allow you to do extremely intense back bends in complete safety
They also allow you to stretch out your ankles, knees and hips doing various squatting exercises in complete safety improving both mobility and flexibility
They are the best investment I have ever made in exercise equipment
I have them hanging right above where I meditate so when my back needs a good stretching, I reach up and grab them and twist around a bit
I also have taken to meditating in a walk in closet
It is the closest thing to a cave that I can utilize
Complete darkness void of sound makes meditating easy
Sensations flowing through the nervous system is what creates thoughts
I have fallen in Absolute Love with Nisargadatta
Of course I Love All of My Gurus
There are many youtube videos with Nisargadatta teachings
http://thenisargadattasadhana.blogspot.com/2011/
I recommend all of Nisagadatta's books
I also recommend Everything by Ramana Maharshi especially this:

I found the Kundalini Yoga Upanishad which is an interesting read:

I would like to know if it is possible to have the breathless state while in a daily function, like driving or walking?
From the Yoga Kundalini PDF linked above:
When the breath stops without any effort, when Kevala Kumbhaka comes by itself without any exertion, know that Kundalini Shakti has become active.
The only time I breathe is when I practice pranayama, exercise, or sleep.
Breath is unnecessary for normal living activities
As I have written many times, there is still an air exchange going on inside my body but it happens on its own
The breath, contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm muscles, is not needed to rid the body of carbon dioxide or bring Oxygen and Prana into the body
There is no doubt in my mind that Zechariah Chapter 14 from The Bible is about Breaking through this bone with the tongue
Zechariah 14 King James Version (KJV)
14 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
For those interested in reading the rest of Chapter 14 of Zechariah:
This is why Jesus has a sword coming out of his mouth in so many passages because this is how you become a Christ
Once you break through that bone with your tongue, you literally make the two one and can no longer bring Polarity into the body with the Imbalanced Breath
The Sympathetic Nervous Systems (Tree of Knowledge) and the mind are no longer powered up
It is the end of the illusion of Individuality and The Birth of GOD
It is Surreal that the Jewish and Christian Religions do not understand the Scripture they purport to follow
Or maybe they do and something more sinister is at work

John 7:38 New International Version (NIV)
38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”
Hey, I've been reading this forum for a few months now and it has been a very valuable resource in my own journey to khechari. I learned about kechari like just a few months ago and it made me feel ecstatic and relieved -- to know that such a great miracle exists, to know that my searching for God and suffering can end, because I don't think I would be able to reach liberation without it. I was running out of options at this time and was surrendering intensely to God for guidance because I couldn't bear the internal suffering I was constantly experiencing that felt deeply ingrained due to trauma. I could never find the source of my issues and neutralize them despite meditating for two years, on and off, following different methods from different systems. I am very close to popping my tongue in the nasopharnyx but I wanted to reach out for some guidance, if possible. As soon as I started practicing kechari (learned about it from a kriya yoga book), I noticed my tongue could already almost touch the uvula, but this produced no sensation. I kept practicing in different ways, but what I found interesting -- and what made me know that the effects people speak of are indeed true -- is that whenever I pressed my tongue on my soft palate in a particular way, I noticed intensely unusual effects. It felt like a temporary psychedelic effect -- body, mind consciousness dissolving, flashes of thought/intense emotion, repressed memories and sensations, extreme disorientation, strong euphoria, a feeling of blood decarbonization throughout my body, etc. -- that would last like 1-3 seconds. I believe this is caused by the tongue pressing on the sphenoid sinus. I kept doing this like everyday, trying out different techniques with it, and basically kept tripping out doing this, which continuously encouraged me to practice to attain kechari. So I would do talabya, didn't find that particularly effective, so just started sticking my tongue in there with my fingers, to stretch the frenum, it took a while but I was able to get it behind the uvula and keep stretching trying to fit it in there, but I would always gag as it is about to enter and the flap would close my tongue out. This still happens, but a few weeks ago I was able to let it rest on the soft palate and behind the uvula without my fingers holding it, and now I can do this indefinitely -- I practice nadi in this position. I believe my tongue is long and my face is small, but the base of my tongue is sort of fat/thick. When my tongue is resting behind the uvula and on top the soft palate, I can move it around all over, and I notice that I can go up about two inches the nasal septum, and go in the left and right grooves, slide around, and almost pop in, but still gag reflex is the issue. I can also go up from the back of the throat and touch with my tongue what feels like sort of hard nerves. I don't notice any sensations touching these things though, except when my tongue goes into the groove at the left side of the nasal septum, I feel a pleasurable sensation. I have been doing a lot of different practices to help the process. I do shambavi mudra while resting my tongue above the soft palate, and I notice my tongue does different things, trying to reach higher and higher. I also do nose tip gazing, which affects the tongue in a different way. Nose bridge gazing seems to be powerful (above lip). I've being doing a lot of devotional prayers each day as well; I have been devoting myself to Ananandamayi Ma ever since discovering her months ago, begging her to guide and liberate me. I also prayed to Babaji intensely at first, when first discovering Kriya I believe, and I recently began praying to him again, crying out intensely, surrendering my most disturbing negative emotions and begging for liberation. I believe he is guiding me because I've been having moments of strong guiding intuition. Recently I've been using this LED light I had for trataka/fire kasina, doing about 45 minutes sessions daily for a week so far, and I've noticed some powerful effects. I stare at the center (gradient black circle) and it causes intense concentration (visual hallucinations, light shaking back and forth, making it harder to focus on center, kriyas (spontaneous movements, like twitching and shaking of body), energy moving up spine, heat, strong purifications, and what is most amazing is the ecstatic after effect that seems to totally replace that underlying sense of anxiety and shame I feel. I feel sort of high after practicing and I believe its because of how enormously it develops concentration and clarity. Reality becomes more vivid, intrusive thoughts are neutralized as they appear, identification process is weakened -- awareness 'feels' more 'nondual', all without making an 'effort'. Also, I believe these practices are related to kechari (especially shambavi mudra) because they all cause my tongue to eventually press with extreme pressure onto my palate, causing visual blackness and dissolution, which I don't notice until after I come out of that transient state. I believe trataka is an extremely effective exercise at developing concentration and is a good meditation practice. You can combine mantra repetition while doing trataka as well. I have not yet begun spinal breathing because I'm having difficulty 'imagining' everything and aligning my breath with the movement of attention. But I will soon. I also want to ask a VERY important question, any help is appreciated. I have ordered a shaktipat rudraksha mala from a person who has completely awakened his kundalini and claims to be able to awaken others' kundalini through shaktipat initiation. He says the initiation is from the Blue Being, not 'him', and I have been also praying to Krishna a few weeks ago, so that may be connected. Shaktipat causes the kundalini shakti to awaken from the base, travel up through sushumna and untie all three knots, resulting in samadhi. Do you think this is a wise, safe approach to Self-realization? Lahiri's approach is to untie the knots in reverse order and then awaken kundalini, no? Would it be unwise for me to have my kundalini awakened through shaktipat and then allow the deconstructing/reconstructing to occur, or to keep practicing to attain kechari, do kriya practices with kechari to clean the spine, and then awaken kundalini? I believe I am pretty close to entering the nasopharnyx fully, and I think when I do, I might progress rapidly because of the length of the my tongue proportional to my head's size. But I'm not sure though, and I'm not sure what's preventing me from progressing -- if it's my frenum and if so, if I should cut it or stretch it nonstop with talabya, or if its the gag reflex, or both. I would appreciate advice on anything from anyone. I've taken a break from pressing on my soft palate with my tongue because the effects are even more intense now, like really rapid, powerful sensations/thought/image/feel flash in my consciousness, and it feels like I don't know who I am when I come back or where I am physically. It wears off immediately though, but it causes severe depression for a few hours to a day after, which is unusual for me as I've never struggled with depression despite my other issues. I trust the shaktipat person, and I believe it has the potential to cause a real awakening. If anything, I may use the mala and hold kechari while doing the spinal breathing, and see if kundalini helps me out and grants me kechari. I hope something like that happens, but to tell you the truth, I don't know if I'm mentally and emotionally stable/healthy enough to succeed. Trataka is helping in a rather miraculous way so far, but I have to see what happens. I recommend everyone try trataka the way I described, it's just so powerful compared to every other meditation technique I've tried ime. Thank you for reading guys and thank you to everyone who has contributed to this forum and helped others, especially umunhum. 
Also, I found a comprehensive book on kechari the other day, maybe it can help you guys: http://khecaridevi.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/report_khe.pdf
And here is a book I found recently that blew me away: https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/Ashtavakra-Gita-ebook.pdf

@umunhum Huge fan of your video on youtube. I am an ex christian, reformed baptist, who left the church 10 years ago, alot has happened in between that time. I have recently discovered the gnostic gospels and am understanding their true meanings. I have a question for you if you were open to sharing... which book or books helped you discover and understand Khechari Mudra? Kind regards John
To the admins, please delete my post if you think it is not a good fit for the group.
First of all thanks for the many advices I got from this group, you guys all rock 
So, I wanted to give back some value to the community as well...
I was doing a lot of research lately on Yoga benefits and found very interesting facts and tips
on how to Yoga can help us. So, I posted on my blog**.**
You can read it here: Strona główna
Let me know what do you think, looking for your comments.
@umhunum I can't seem to find a private message option anywhere, so I guess I'll ask here.
Since you seem to have so much information in this thread and on your Hidden Teachings of Jesus video on youtube, again, I'll ask here for a daily program.
In my mind, I'm all over the place and am just starting this journey so I was hoping you could simplify a routine for me to to start doing.
Thanks!
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Hi. I skimmed through this forum and I see many well meaning and in the journey people. But I would like to ask. Can you describe the actual kundalini awakening experience. I have had it. I can tell you exactly what it is. I knew when I was experiencing it that this was the "ultimate" state of meditation reached. I would like to see if anyone here can join me in this topic before I describe in detail what happens. Please let me know because it's rare to find and in my seeking seems lots of folks like to 'say' they've reached it.
I enjoyed this reading. Thanks for sharing
Hi. I refuse to read all the thread to find a simple answer. I am sorry. I watched the video ' Hidden teachings of Jesus' on YouTube and wanted to know how to stick the tongue in the nasal passage to stop or control the breath at my will. I watched the whole video many times. I came here and read a bit of info here and there. I have posted in that Youtube video years ago. I have not at all found the answer. Why is it so super difficult to get a very simplified, suscint, condended, simple, straight forward answer? I would the info if possible. Thanks. M
