KUNDALINI YOGA

When Ma the Goddess came to address us, one day, on her own accord, she spoke highly of the Siddha path, telling us that it was the path of learning and that one's experience will become another's Jnana (often implied as wisdom). We are reminded by the Siddhas that if we never learn from our experience, we shall come back, again and again, taking rebirths until we understand and gain wisdom from all our actions and experiences. Swami Tadatmananda too clearly tells us that it is not enough that we gain knowledge but we need to put it into an experience. Our experiences will become learning. But it does not end there. We should gain wisdom from these. Rather than merely explaining the knowledge from the sacred Yoga Upanishads to us, he puts himself through the practice of awakening the mysterious kundalini and shares his experience which together with his previous understanding of the sacred texts, transforms into and becomes Jnana to us.
