We are confronted throughout history with certain symbols. One of them is the serpent, which was always much in evidence wherever the ancient temples devoted to wisdom flourished. Since the old story of Adam and Eve, the serpent has represented two things – Knowledge and Sex – thus hinting at a close connection between them. And the secret is that the Creative Force within us is one single force, whether it be used for physical or mental ends. We have the choice as to which way we shall direct this force, upwards or downwards.
In material-minded or primitive man it continues to be used purely for procreation or sensual gratification. But as man aspires to higher ideals, as he yearns to create mentally and live in the spirit, the force is gradually drawn upwards to the creative principles in the brain.
This force is called by the Easterns the Kundalini, and is likened to a serpent of fire lying coiled at the base of the spine. If man steadily purifies his mind and nature through living chastely and moderately, he is able to magnetize the Kundalini serpent upwards through the channel of his spine, until finally it reaches the Masculine-Feminine principles of the brain and fires them into co-ordination. The man is then filled with inspiration and becomes attuned to the inner world of Wisdom. This can only be accomplished with the help of the ‘Kundalini serpent’. Perhaps Christ gave a hint of this when he said: ‘Be ye wise as serpents.’

Kundalini and modern physicsInterestingly this mechanism can be related to modern physics. A ‘condensate’ is a substance whose molecules have a greater order and coherence than normal. In a ‘Bose-Einstein condensate’ the molecules not only have a high degree of order but they also overlap and the condensate behaves like a unit. Examples of ‘Bose-Einstein condensates’ in inorganic matter are superconductors and laser beams. However a scientist by the name Herbert Frohlich showed that by feeding extra energy to the cell walls of living tissue, the cells would line up in the most orderly, condensed way we know – the ‘Bose-Einstein condensate’ – and the cell walls would start acting as a unit.
Apparently, when the brain is supplied with an extra amount of high grade energy (Kundalini) it becomes a ‘Bose-Einstein condensate’. Thus following Kundalini awakening, the brain turns into a super-conductor with a focus like a laser beam.
Sex can be a doorway or a gate for the increased flow of Kundalini. When experienced with love and inside of aTantric format it can be a very powerful event. Your conscious reality can become shattered. And you may find yourself in an unfamiliar place and this of course can encourage fear.
Kundalini and Sex
When you are sexually aroused, the Kundalini energy is activated. It rises up the spine, and as it approaches the brain, the sexual feelings become stronger and stronger. At this point, in most people, the energy reverses and takes a downward course seeking release though the genitals.
Gopi Krishna believes that the human brain is still in an organic state of evolution toward higher levels of consciousness. The driving force of that evolution, he claims, is the Kundalini energy.
Brainmapping an Orgasm
When you are engaged in sexual activity, it's important that you relax and surrender completely to the feelings coming up. During this process there will be an increase of slow brain waves such as delta and theta waves seen on the middle brainmap above. The stronger the waves, the more orgasmic energy you can hold in consciousness before it travels downward and spills over in the body in the form of an ejaculation.
When you relax and open up during sexual stimulation, changes first take place in the etheric body. The Kundalini energy which is coiled up like a snake at the base of the spine in the root chakra starts to rise to higher levels passing through the chakras. Since Kundalini is the energy circuit in the etheric body (much as the blood vessels are the energy circuit in the physical body) the changes in energy initially take place in the etheric or emotional body.
If the person relaxes and surrender to the pleasurable feelings, there will be physiological changes such as an increase of the parasympathetic activity in the Autonomic Nervous System. If you are not relaxed in the situation, the energy is blocked, possibly leading to frigidity and impotence. In case of relaxation and surrender, the brain changes its activity toward more alpha and theta waves. These changes indicate better access to the body and the feelings. Now, as the energy rises and increases its momentum, it’s important – through meditation - to hold the energy in that space of consciousness without releasing it.
When you get very close to orgasm, and the male gets close to ejaculation, the feelings will be overwhelming and the brain tends to shut down and reverse the energy which will then take a downward course and seek release through the genitals. These energy changes are mediated by a small structure deep in the brain called the hypothalamus which controls the balance of the Autonomic System (ANS).
According to a principle called reciprocal innervation, an extremely high activation of the frontal hypothalamus and thus of the parasympathetic system, will create an overflow of energy activating the posterior hypothalamus which stimulates the sympathetic nervous system. This will make the energy rise to higher centers and this process is accompanied by very fast activity in the EEG (beta and gamma wave frequencies up to at least 42Hz).
So, initially you will see very low frequencies when the energy is activated in the lower chakras. When the energy rises to the higher chakras, very fast frequencies will take over (see above brainmap). The sexual feelings and the energy is now so overwhelming that most people cannot contain it anymore. Once more reciprocal innervation in the hypothalamus shifts the balance toward more parasympathetic activity. The brain's activity is shut down, and the energy takes a downward course. These changes are automatic and fast and will quickly lead to a depletion of the energy and in the male to ejaculation.
We believe that this EEG pattern (high amplitude, slow waves followed by high amplitude, fast waves) is the brain's signature of a total orgasm involving the whole body and all the chakras. In most people, however, we do not see this pattern, since they tend to have much less than total orgasms.
In my presentation at the neurofeedback meeting in Miami in February, 2001 I said: 'EEGs were obtained from three volunteer subjects (two men and one woman) who all reached sexual climax and Orgasm through masturbation. A 54-year-old woman described her orgasm as intense, almost overwhelming, involving all parts of her body and mind. Initially high amplitude 7 Hz theta appeared in the right frontal lobe. Within eight minutes, high amplitude, rhythmic activity within all EEG frequency bands spread to the whole scalp for about 30 seconds during orgasm. Immediately following orgasm all electrical activity seized for approximately five seconds after which it returned to normal. Brainmaps from this case will also be presented demonstrating these phenomena in details.'
Sexual congress with a Kundalini active or interested person can activate a person very quickly and if done so with out any of the balances that we do here the person can become very extreme in their experience with the Kundalini and often fearful to the point of paranoia and psychosis. This may earn them a trip to visit the local psyche ward.
Sex can be one of the closest physical reflections of the divine two that are one. I would suggest that in the context of the Kundalini never have sex without love and without the understanding of what is occurring when you do have sex.
Sex isn't just for the creation of a new life. That is one of the functions. It is also used for the creation and installation of a new phase of existence in an extant life. i.e. the Kundalini upon the human being. Many who have a hard experience with the Kriyas have often been activated by a sexual experience. No conditioning or balances and wham! There they go. So it can be difficult.
My views on sex from where I am now are that it is to be experienced with in the parameters of love as a conscious celebration of the two that are one. Always. From a Kundalini perspective the male should retain his semen. He should not ejaculate and allow the semen to be reversed into the spinal channels and from there through out the body.
Not everyone has this happen though. Just like the Kriyas they are an individual experience and yours will not necessarily be mine. So it is also with the GFA. Genital Fluidic Ascendance. As the semen rises and connects to the spinal channels it gets circulated into the endocrine system and the nervous system. It can be an automatic function of the Kundalini and it feels as if there is a tugging of the Vas Deferens of the seminal conduits that connect to the testicle. I can actually feel it being reversed and circulated. So can anyone. It is odd at first but so are most of the Kundalini phenomena.
Women can feel it as a similar tugging and a pull. And up the feminine secretions go! So it is important to be open and allowing of these events to occur. For a man keep your semen. For a woman let the secretions be taken.
Sexual behaviors will be expressed
Kundalini and sexual expression are inextricably connected. An infused first and second chakra will hyper stimulate hormonal production and influence emotional and sexual behaviors. Yes the hormones are in the driver’s seat for a time until that aspect of the infusion process has been completed. Same with a decreased libido as an absence of hormonal hyper expression is just the other side of the coin.
Sexual behaviors will be expressed, and not always those of the common and accepted formats as, depending on the individual's emotional disposition and level of surrender or resistance, these can reflect areas of imbalance. And the behaviors will follow suit.
In the world of Kundalini expression normal experience can be extremely altered. Many experiences can carry a far different and unique meaning and or experience for the Kundalini infused person. Kundalini can blend realities and worlds and so it is best to have an open and inquisitive perspective to all of the phenomena and natural expressions of this force.
Infusion of Kundalini upon the personality and the emotions and yes the body, including the sexual aspects, are real and can determine, in very real ways, the level of expression that can be experienced in the day to day existence. It is healthy and necessary to discuss these subjects.
Having the Kundalini take away a libido is just as much an expressed phenomena of the infusion as having it intensified. Both aspects are commonly experienced and nothing is wrong. In society sometimes a personality will assert importance to the sexual functioning’s as a descriptor of ego based belief constructs that have very little to do with reality.
These will only have relevance for those holding on to the ego inside of the infusion which in and of itself can block certain expressions. Far better to move forward into the Kundalini and surrender all or as much as possible no matter how many taboo subjects are introduced or come up in the process.
BDSM
The term "BDSM" is an abbreviation derived from the terms bondage, discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism.
Sometimes those with an active second chakra will be lead by their appetites into new levels of sensual expression. I counsel against this in that it can bring a painful experience which is the point I know but also for the discarnate attachments that can also manifest. Entities flock to these types of control games and self abuse.
An active second chakra is a powerful experience and if we allow our passions and appetites to control us we can become ensnared in the narcissistic aspects of searching always for the next horizon of physical pleasure. Often to the degradation of the spiritual and ethical pursuits. Though please do not feel I am making a value judgment here. I have experienced an overactive and very vibrant second chakra activation and one can become driven by the need to satisfy this never ending hunger.
So if you are feeling the urge to hurt yourself as a path way towards sexual excitement I counsel you to do some aerobics instead. If you are feeling pulled to participate in some dangerous or hurtful sexual expressions I counsel against falling prey to the ego in this way. Do not follow these desires if you can at all help it - and you can.
Have sex
But always with the thought and intention of reaching into the heart of God. See that representation inside the eyes of your partner. The touch, taste, smell, and sight of God is joined with you. You are and they are two aspects of the one being.
Always give for the honor and pleasure of Goddess/God connected to you. You give for them. With tantra let it be a ceremony of flesh for the exaltation of spirit in flesh for the disappearance of flesh into the blending of the consciousness of God/Goddess & Goddess/God.
Kundalini is the culmination of that gift. Whether or not it has been sought that way.

Don’t have sex....
If the Kundalini in you takes away your libido. Do not try to influence the Kundalini with regards to the physical expression of passion. Do not take drugs to bypass a Kundalini induced period of sexual abstinence.
Remember your surrender.
Do not masturbate from boredom. Allow other activities that are not sexual based to fill your days and nights. Kundalini has its agenda and this is a fact. Whether or not you understand this agenda isn’t the issue. Remember your surrender and do not abrogate it.

When having sex....
Keep the eyes in the upward position.
The partner who is the Shiva allows the partner who is the Shakti to "dance upon the platform that is the Shiva."
The Shiva is still and allows the dance to be given.
The Shakti is expressive and her dance is for love of God upon whom she is dancing. Pleasure is a mere by product.
Shiva does not orgasm. He takes her essences into his body and nurtures them there.
Shakti does orgasm and she gives of her copious love into the Shiva flowing it to him as he accepts in stillness.
