The first level is Atala. This is the abode of sexual entities in the form of lustful female demons. This level is ruled by Bala, son of Maya. Bala possesses great powers, and creates these demons when he yawns. These demons are of three kinds: svarinis (self-willed),kaminis (lustful) and pumscalis (whorish). These demons enchant and attack the men who enter Atala, trying to steal their sexual energy. The state of consciousness of Atala is called “Put”, which means childless. The Atala chakra is located in the hips. The Atala-chakra and Put give place to fear and despair, as well as lustful desires.
