When Kundalini Shakti is conceived as a goddess then, when it rises to the head it unites itself with the Supreme Being (Lord Shiva). The aspirant gets engrossed in deep meditation and infinite bliss. Kundalini Sanskrit, literally "coiled". In Indian yoga, a "corporeal energy - an unconscious, instinctive or libidinal force or Shakti, envisioned either as a goddess or else as a sleeping serpent coiled at the base of the spine hence a number of English renderings of the term such as 'serpent power'.
Kundalini is considered a part of the subtle body along with chakras (energy centres) and nadis (channels). Each chakra is said to contain special characteristics.Yogis tend to attempt this alone, Tantrics in couples, both usually under the instruction of a guru.
Yoga and Tantra propose that this energy may be "awoken" by such means as austerities, breath and other physical exercises, visualisation and chanting. It may then rise up a subtle channel at the spine (called Shushumna) to the head, bringing psychological illumination. The overall conception has many points in common with Chinese theories of acupuncture.
