Kundalini and sexual awakening

One of the most talked and pondered about effect of Kundalini meditation is relating to the sex and arousal. Popular press and non serious mediators are fixated on this aspect of Kundalini meditation.

There is no denying that Kundalini energy is rooted in our personal creative energy, which no doubt is sexual in nature. As a matter of fact Kundalini meditation increases our sensibilities and consciousness to experience intense bliss in everything that we do, including sexual union. Sexual intercourse is the ultimate union of male and female energies in an act of creation; hence a surge of Kundalini energy is experienced.

All the learned teachers tell us that first a person should tune into his spiritual energies and devote time to solitary meditation. It is this practice that will bring a heightened sense of energy and an intense pleasure during the sexual intercourse.

Some schools of Kundalini meditation encourage the use of sensuous fantasies in order to awaken the first chakra, where the Kundalini goddess lies dormant at the base of the spine. This might be a good method for celibate monks studying under a master and living a solitary life but in our modern environment it can be counter productive.

Despite the myths to the contrary the purpose of Kundalini meditation is not to generate masturbatory rush of sexual energy through the human body. The idea and purpose is to consciously increase and nurture the overall balance of energy in the system.

You will definitely experience more sexual pleasure and potency as you progress with your meditation, but that is not the purpose or the goal of Kundalini meditation. I would say that it is just a very pleasant side effect which will happen on its own without you making any conscious effort.

You can and should explore the deepening of your sexual awareness and intensities of your orgasms with your sexual partner which results because of conscious awakening of Kundalini. I would deeply stress that your daily meditation alone is of prime importance and the sexual manifestations of Kundalini should be treated with gratitude and received as a gift of your spiritual practice.

I can assure you that with disciplined practice and dedication you will reach a stage where the continued blissful state will be far beyond any pleasure, sexual or other, that you might have experienced in life. Your daily mundane chores will give you intense pleasure and your awareness expands and engulfs everything within and without.
