Kundalini Part 1 of 5

The third eye of Shiva!
Demons reduced to ash!
Ego seeking this power-enigma 
That ascension it may encash

Beginning thus with a nebulous concept
Identity craving for Godlike enablement 
Adopts yogic techniques suspect
To awaken kundalini from containment 

Lucky then are those who fail
To prematurely arouse the serpent power
More oft than not we hear cries & wails
Of ill-timed fellow beings who in fear cower

Overawed by body instruments we forget 
That the goal is about union of self with Self
Unless in purity of being we stand erect
We best put self-aggrandizement on the shelf

This preamble aside we now plot the path
Of the journey of kundalini from root to crown
Each nuance, each pulse a holy sabbath
In stillness we cognise, in inertia we drown

The foremost aspect to keep in mind
Is that we are entering unchartered waters
Thus all limited knowing we leave behind
Getting to the core of the energy that matters

It all begins (and ends) then with our heart
A yearning burning to connect with the divine
We know not the way or how to start
So in gentleness resistanceless we simply align

Let us liken this journey to a union with our lover
Our beloved who is asleep
In rippleless stillness we are ready to wait forever 
For our twin flame to awake from sleep

Such is the determination and the loving resolve
Nullifying the impact of time
Hearts choosing to connect not a problem we solve 
We simply surrender to our inner chime
