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!
