The Impact of Kundalini Activation and Consciousness Shifts in Spiritual Awakening
Dr. Bonnie Greenwell, Ph.D.
Spiritual Awakenings International
Kundalini awakening activates profound changes in the body, mind and spirit. It triggers the reorganization of our energy field, and as it evolves, disrupts our sense of self. When we are able to develop a positive relationship with our awakened energy field, old patterns and beliefs are cleared away and a new openness and quality of presence becomes possible. When we are aligned with the internal process of transformation, we may experience radical changes in our lives and our world view, new creativity, and eventually a deep relaxation into the dynamics of life and death. Most people will face significant challenges in this transformative process before awakening becomes stable.

Kundalini and Awakening: Providing Effective Support
Dr. Emma Bragdon, Ph.D.
FMBRTV
Awakening to a more expansive consciousness is becoming a vital part of maintaining mental health and going with the flow of human evolution.
Learn why increasing numbers of people are having kundalini experiences and how to effectively support their need for emotional support and understanding. We all need to discern the difference between disturbances that are part of spiritual awakening and those that are only related to psychological issues.
Kundalini is a powerful, potential energy that usually lies dormant in the sacrum. When it rises it can create physical, emotional and spiritual experiences that can be overwhelming and disturbing. When fully "awakened" the kundalini energy manifests as the highest level of consciousness--one feels bliss, profound peace, and a desire to support the very best in others as well as planet earth.
Kundalini Awakening: Yogic & Buddhist Views - Maps of the Journey
Dr. Lawrence Edwards
Spiritual Awakenings International
Kundalini, the power of boundless Consciousness to know Itself both as finite and infinite, is known by many names in different traditions – Holy Spirit, Goddess, Divine Mother, and Bhagavati Maha Prajnaparamita, to name just a few. Awakening is the metaphor aptly used for becoming aware of what already exists. However, awakening to this boundless power of Universal Consciousness can be profoundly disorienting to the ordinary mind with all its limitations.
Sages and saints have left us maps to help the mind understand what it is awakening to and what lies far beyond its reach. These maps aren’t the territory. We only come to know the actual landscape of Consciousness by becoming skilled, trained, and informed explorers. The Eastern meditative traditions and all mystic traditions emphasize the need for direct non-conceptual experience. Maps and selfless guides or teachers are necessary, but not sufficient. We have to make the journey ourselves. Dr. Edwards shares some of the ancient maps that can help orient a seeker on the journey of awakening to the Reality of Infinite Oneness.

Kundalini Shakti Awakening: Overcoming Common Challenges ~ Brent Spirit
Brent Spirit
Spiritual Awakenings International
The Kundalini Shakti awakening process is deeply rewarding. However, sometimes, it can turn a person’s world upside down. Drawing from his experience supporting many through their Kundalini process, Brent discusses some of the key challenges and potential solutions. He shares the hardship of undergoing this process in western society, overcoming some of the physical and emotional difficulties, navigating non-ordinary psychic phenomena, making sense of spontaneous movements and vocalizations (kriyas), cultivating a meditation practice, and reintegrating back into the world. In addition, he addresses the challenge of raising awareness about this process on a broader scale so that experiencers can be supported and understood.
Kundalini Shakti: Our Divine Personal and Global Transformer
Joan Shivarpita Harrigan, Ph.D.
Institute for Consciousness Research
We live in intense times that poignantly provoke us to contemplate life’s mystery and deepen our commitment to the goal of Realization. Our species, poised on the brink of its spiritual potential, seems to be faltering on the precipitous evolutionary step necessary for our survival and fulfillment.
As stories of spiritual transformation throughout human history and my own observations demonstrate, Kundalini Shakti, known by many names, is the divine change agent responsible for our personal and collective advancement.
Inner change yields world change, but both require our proactive participation. In the crucible of Kali yuga, existential suffering seems to be the catalyst needed for igniting our efforts to cooperate with Kundalini’s spiritual agenda, motivating us to brave the purgative confusion and make the effort essential to reaching our ultimate purpose of Self-illumination.
