Kundalini--How To Raise It, Kriyas, and Beyond

Maybe you read books on kundalini, take kundalini classes, attend kundalini seminars, practice kundalini with your lover, or maybe even teach kundalini yoga. Maybe you've heard about kundalini and are just curious to learn more. Kundalini is basically an energy that rises up the spine, enlivening the body and enlightening the person.
Your desire to raise your kundalini has brought you here in perfect synchronicity. If you're still seeking kundalini activation, spiritual awakening, or trying to sustain your higher states, you've come to a very auspiciously blessed place.
Divine Openings ignites kundalini energy, usually quickly, and always without effort or practices. Kundalini rising is just one of many effects of Divine Openings, such that we don't think of it as any big deal.
Some people experience flashes of firelike heat, increased energy, or simply more aliveness. Their eyes might shine with an inner light, and they tend to activate others, much as a lit match lights other matches it comes close to. Eyes are not just light receptors. In advanced states of spiritual awakening, the eyes actually emit light.
Some describe feeling as if their entire being is lit up temporarily like a white hot welding torch, with accompanying feelings of bliss and peace. Everyone is different. For some it's very subtle. Radical kundalini flashes are not meant to be sustained. Your neurology is not yet evolved enough to sustain it for any length of time.
Sensual passion, love, or spiritual passion is usually increased; which one you experience depends on your Large Self's plan for you, your own heart's desires, and stage of life.
Divine Openings does far, far more than cause kundalini rising, and the practical life effects are miraculous and wonderful.
Kundalini can safely rise for many just from reading the book, Things Are Going Great In My Absence. Others might require a phone session or a live hands-on Divine Opening or two, or a course. This is the age of acceleration and miracles, and nothing demonstrates this more powerfully than Divine Openings. One of the phenomena of Divine Openings is that it causes the kundalini fire to light and rise without effort, practices, or work. It does much more than that, but kundalini was your area of interest when you came to this page, so we addressed kundalini first. Now learn more about the many other things Divine Openings does for you, beyond kundalini, as you read on.
The huge life effects of Divine Openings are strong, so you would not want to do fire breath or strong kundalini practices with it--it would be too much. When you're already going warp speed you don't need to accelerate more! With Divine Openings you may get a bit over-energized at times, but you'll be given simple tools to deal with that, and it won't be unduly difficult if it does happen. The vast majority never experience problems with kundalini energy spikes with Divine Openings.
Welcome to easy kundalini activation, and personal evolution that unfolds without effort. This new leading edge paradigm of human evolution is based on Grace. Through Divine Openings, Grace does for you what you cannot do for yourself.
when you open your heart and mind
and allow this Grace in.
Divine Openings is different, so you cannot compare it to anything else. As you read, if your mind starts struggling to stuff it in some box with something you already know, like kundalini or shakti, you simply can't; it's unlike anything you've ever done. For example, your crown, third eye, and other chakras will open and balance, but we won't discuss, think about, or work on your chakras.
Major lifelong issues resolve, traumas disappear, patterns dissolve, karma is erased, and you won't even know how it happened. You won't analyze, work on it, or think about it. You won't do austerities or work at all in our spiritual retreat courses or online courses. Upon spiritual awakening, issues and limitations fall away, gradually for some, rapidly for others. This is spiritual awakening that works in practical life.
You do your 10%, and Grace does 90% of it for you. You learn to let The Divine do the heavy lifting. In addition to raising kundalini, Divine Openings initiates or deepens spiritual enlightenment, reconnects and upgrades your DNA, lights up your light body, wakes up your full power, ignites your Divine Intelligence (inner genius), and resolves your "issues" -- and once you are free, you don't ever have to go back. We humorously refer to it as getting on the automatic upgrade program of spiritual awakening. Once it begins, it keeps unfolding like a beautiful lotus, in every area of your life. So you see, kundalini rising is but one minor side effect of Divine Openings.
What are kriyas? Kriyas are involuntary, automatic movements, twitches, or vocalizations that sometimes occur with the rise of kundalini. They were traditionally said to be clearing the karma, patterns, and energy pathways of the the energy body, but we now know that karma is an outdated concept. Now we would say kriyas are inidicative of shifting vibrational patterns in the body, and vibration being raised. We'd say that you are opening, not clearing.
Kriyas can take many forms, from an irresistible urge to do complex and difficult yoga postures (even if you don't know any yoga) - to dances, songs, and chants you don't know (possibly in a language you don't know).
It is said that yoga originated from observing people spontaneously going through kriyas during kundalini awakening. People surmised that if they reversed the process and did those exact postures regularly, their kundalini would rise. This is unfortunately a very slow route to kundalini awakening, and often it does not ever result in kundalini awakening at all.
The most common types of kriyas are rocking, nodding, twitching, and shaking, and they range from tiny shudders to doing dramatic automatic movements. With Divine Openings we say Divine Presence takes over your body and does what needs to be done to free up your energy and open the pathways. As energy begins to move more freely, the kinks and blockages are opened up. Some people cry or scream and then don't remember doing it, because their Large Self took over their body completely for a short time in order to get the job done as fast as possible, by Grace.
The main thing is to let go and don't resist. The sooner you let go, the sooner the kriyas resolve and cease. I've seen people laugh at it, and it stops immediately. If they get scared or upset about it, it seems to persist longer, but of course, what you resist persists. There's a huge sense of release afterward, and the energy pathways are opened so kundalini Life Force can flow freely.
It really doesn't matter whether kriyas are experienced or not. They're not necessary for spiritual enlightenment. Some people experience kriyas more radically than others, some don't experience kriyas at all, or they're barely noticeable. With Divine Openings you can be sure that the kundalini energy will rise.
