Kundalini Yoga is a
kind of yoga that focuses on the mind, body, and Yoga is a religious practice
that focuses on the kundalini, or hidden spiritual strength that everyone has.
It is thought that the kundalini is awakened and rises via
the chakras in the subtle body through a mix of yoga practice and ceremonial
activity.
This activity leads to increased spiritual abilities and, in
the end, soul emancipation (moksha).
One of the claims made for kundalini yoga is that it
accelerates spiritual development by using more powerful powers.
Because of this, it is considered more dangerous and should
only be done under the guidance of a religious preceptor (guru).
Those who engage these powers without adequate supervision,
according to legend, risk unleashing forces they can't control, perhaps leading
to insanity or death.
