Here the question is: Kundalini, what is it? Note that approaching this subject requires much more than just a meaning within a search of words. The awareness of Kundalini is the awareness of Divine Truth. There is no real distance between this Revelation of the Truth about you and this direct comprehension of the Reality about God.
When the search is for God, the idea present in us is of an element that is separate, out there somewhere, to be found, distant to be seen, which is a mistake, which shows itself to be, in fact, an illusion, since the Truth about God is the Truth about Life; and we, as human beings, are not separate from life, we are within the context of life as it happens.
So, when people ask "What is Kundalini?" Kundalini is the awareness of your own Being, which is the vision of Life, which is the Reality of God. However, we cannot confuse what some out there understand by Kundalini with what we are talking about here. We are touching with you, working on with you about this vision of life, free from the ego. However, most people understand this expression - Kundalini - as an experience that someone, that we can have.
No, it is not an experience that you can have. There is no such element capable of experiencing that which is outside of the known, outside of time. This element would be the experiencer - the element that lives from experiences, that has experiences. This is how we see ourselves as people; as people we see ourselves as an element present in life to have experiences. This element to have experiences is the presence of an image that thought has established in us as being ourselves.
You, as someone, are a person. You are this self-image. You are this image that thought has been constructed. There is an image present; it is not separate from what you are as a person. Contact with Divine Reality, which is contact with Life, which is the Revelation of this Being, the Reality about You is different from the truth about you. You have the truth about yourself, the truth that thought has established, but there is a Reality about You that thought does not know, that the mind does not know. This Reality is this Real Consciousness, this Divine Consciousness. This Reality is the presence of Kundalini.
This is not an experience for you, this is not something that you achieve, this is not something that you accomplish; this is something that is present in this moment, being the Truth of Life, the Truth of Life when the illusion of the person is not. All our work here is towards this one purpose: to become aware of life as it happens, which represents the end of self-image, the end of the image that thought has established within you, being you, being the person.
So, what is Kundalini? Kundalini is this Presence, this Energy, this Reality, this indescribable Thing, this unnameable Thing. It is That, which present, represents the end of all confusion, disorder, problems, conflicts and suffering for the human being. Note, it is not an experience; it is the end of the element that experiences, that experiences internal states, conflicting states, created by thought, created within, in this self-image, sustained by this self-image, which remains constantly present in these various conflicts that exist in the personality.
The human being suffers because of the presence of the "I," the presence of the ego. It is the present self-image: how one represents oneself and how one shows oneself in life as it happens; this person who is constantly dealing with life based on beliefs, opinions, concepts, ideas, evaluations, comparisons, judgments, and so on. It is this element that comes from the past. The element that comes from the past present in you is the presence of thought.
You have no contact with the present moment without the past when thought is present. Your contact with this instant, free from thought, is a contact free from the past. We have moments, occasions when we find ourselves like this, in life, in the instant, in the present moment: contemplating the sunset, taking a dip in the sea, there, sitting while you relax, watching the waters of that stream flowing down, there, on the bank of that small river.
We have some moments in life when there is no thought, no record of remembrance, of memory, so, in that instant, the working place, the office, the bills to pay, the memory of family are no longer present. It is just the presence of a look at that stream, the waters flowing down there, the light on that small stream reflecting in your eyes, on that sunny morning. In that moment, the mind is completely free, temporarily, provisionally, of all movement of thought, of restlessness, of chatter. Then, an inner space opens up. In that instant, the past no longer exists, because memory no longer exists, thought no longer exists. It is the presence of Life in that encounter. It is not you meeting life, it is a look free from this thinker, this observer, this separation. In that encounter, the moment reveals itself as pure Presence, Silence, Energy: this is the encounter with Kundalini.
It is not a mystical experience, it is not about someone having a sensation. It is exactly the end of the experiencer, the end of this sense of separation between you and Life. So, what is Meditation? It is this encounter with the presence of the instant, free from the past, which represents the Truth of God revealing itself. When you learn to approach yourself, without the sense of someone in that approach - this happens at some moments in life, at some moments it happens - notice that there is no effort; it is exactly the absence of all effort. There is no concentration, there is no one there getting involved to achieve something through effort, through concentration, there is nothing to receive, conquer, obtain, achieve, and yet there is a moment of encounter with Beauty, with Love, with Life.
So, what is Kundalini? It is the Reality of God, when the "I" is not there, when the ego is not there. So, when we come across life as it happens, without this sense of the "I" present, in that moment there is no self-image, that is the end of the self-image. We are working with you on exactly that: this encounter with the Reality of your Being, which is the Awakening of this Energy, this Presence, this Real Consciousness, which is Kundalini.
Therefore, Kundalini is your Natural State of Being, free from the "I," in this contact with the present moment, in this contact with him or her, without any image of him or her. Any image of him or her is an image that comes from the past. When we have the end of self-image here, we have contact with him or her without any image of him or her. The common belief is that you know people; what you actually know about people is what thought in you has about them, has to say about them, has something to conclude about them, evaluates about them, it is what thought has to judge about them.
Our evaluation of experience from self-image is the illusion of an experiencer experiencing this experience. In this duality, illusion, ego-identity is established. When there is not this self-image, there is life in this moment. Life at this moment does not carry conflict, problems, disorder, confusion, or suffering. Getting closer to this moment requires comprehension of what thought is. Comprehending thought is ending the continuity of this psychological movement of self-image.
So, what is thought? Thought is this element present in us that evaluates, judges, compares, that deals with the present moment by creating a curtain, a separation, an artificial division, creating the illusion of this "I" and what it is seeing, of this "I," in this format of the thinker, about what it is thinking, in this format of the experiencer and about what it is experiencing. Thought is this element.
We do not know what it is to have contact with this instant free from thought. This contact is the presence of an approach of this moment where there is clarity of thinking. This is the truth about thinking. What is thinking? Thinking is the clarity of looking at this instant without the past, without thought, without someone involved in this division, in this separation. The awareness of this moment requires the presence of a quiet, silent brain, of a mind free of thoughts. Only at this moment is the truth about thinking possible.
We were not raised for a life free of thought. All our mental conditioning is for the continuity of a thinker behind thoughts, of an experiencer behind experiences, of an observer observing from the past. This gaze free from the past is the presence of the Reality of Life. This gaze free from the past is the presence of Life, without the "I," without the thinker, experiencer, observer.
So the truth about thinking is like the truth about feeling, it is like the truth about action - there is no one in the action. This moment of stillness and silence, of presence, of awareness of the Reality of Life, here and now, is the presence of Meditation, which is the presence of this Divine Reality, of this Being. So, there is a quality of action that is possible, that is not born of the "I," that is not born of the ego; there is a quality of thinking that is free of thought; there is a quality of feeling that is free of an element present in that feeling, or that emotion, or that sensation. Here we are faced with something unknown to thought, but something possible for you in your True Nature, in your Real Nature.
The Awakening of Consciousness is the Flourishing of your Natural Divine State, which is the presence of the Reality of God, the only Reality present, the only Truth present. The truth that we know from thought is the illusory truth of an identity that sees itself separate from life itself, that sees itself acting from memory, from remembrance, from the past, that sees itself feeling from the illusion of an identity in this feeling.
Here, together, looking towards the end of this psychological condition, towards a new brain, towards a new mind, towards a new approach to this moment, which is life happening, without the experiencer, without the "I," is the only thing that matters. Here, together, on the weekends - Saturday and Sunday -, in online meetings, we are working on this with you: the Flourishing of your Natural State of Being, the comprehension of Truth, of this absence of the "I," of this absence of the ego, the Beauty of this Kundalini Awakening, of your Natural State of Being.
