Kuṇḍalinī'; The serpentine creative Fires of Life buried within the Base of the Spine centre. It is feminine in nature and sustains the sum of the activity of the Form. It interrelates and coheres the atoms of substance into a unified Form. It is the effect of the lowest descent of the Fiery Creative Word, sustaining the foundations of gross substance. It is seven layered (sheathed) and when evoked by means of appropriate Mantra (via the expression of the energy of will, which is masculine), unites with it to produce that all-consuming Fire that fills the suśumṇā naḍī that liberates the Life aspect incarcerated in the bodily Form. Its Fires are said to liberate the wise and destroy the foolish who would prematurely or rashly wish to contact this (pro)creative force.
