Kundalini Part 3 of 5

Having thus mapped out the pathless path untrodden before We work with gusto & zeal at inner cleansing In thought and word and deed, embracing all, keeping no score We replace narrow thought with loving feeling Then we wait For as long as it does take At an easy gait For our lover within to awake Yes ... the kundalini stirring and standing erect Follows the Sushumna path of least resistance But if our purity of being be clouded or suspect It tilts to Ida or Pingala as of pranic preference The Ida cool with left nostril open offers a fragrant rose However the Pingala solar is akin to a dragon breathing fire Now during the ascent the kundalini may retire back in repose ... if facing a blockage on the lunar path; for solar, consequences are dire We may liken the kundalini to love with love yearning for union The Ida persuasive makes her calm whilst Pingala is fervour burning It is the Sushumna centred that is the direct path for instantaneous fusion Thus as we are, so we become and hence importance of inner cleansing Taking the direct path, the chakras up to Vishuddha all celebrate Thereafter the energy enters the void of the Brahman head domain The Sahasrara said to have a thousand petals and each we must placate Upon kundalini reaching the door of her lover, she volunteers to be slain! 02-August-2020
