But the best and the safest way that can be tried by anyone easily is Mantra Sadhna. When Kundalini is activated there is a tremendous gush of energy which can cause great harm if not properly channelised through the body. But the Mantra Sadhana process is a slow and steady method totally free of such risk. Mantra Sadhna is carried out under the guidance of a Guru who has full control over the awakening of Kundalini.

 

Whatever the mode of activation a Guru is a must for during the process as the divine powers in the body come to life they attack the Sadhak’s weaknesses like greed, jealousy, infatuation, anger, false ego and other negative traits. Sometimes the struggle between these positive (Kundalini) and negative energies can be so intense that a person may lose balance of mind or his evil traits may appear so magnified to him that he may take to wrong ways in life. These are the reasons for which make a Guru an essential part of Kundalini teachings, who will also suggest Guru Mantra Sadhana. The power of Guru is so strong that it can annihilate all evil traits of the Sadhak.

 

There are different Mantra’s for the activation of the six Chakras. One should always remember that it is not a miracle that one is working on, but is a slow and steady process and sometimes it is only after some months that, one may suddenly become aware of the awakening of the concerned Chakra. One should hence continue with Sadhana of other Chakras even if no immediate results seem forthcoming. Sometimes two or three Chakras have been seen to be activated all of a sudden at one go.

 

The first step for Kundalini activation is taking Guru Diksha and later praying to the Guru for Kundalini Jagran Diksha (Diksha for activation of the Kundalini). After this the Guru suggests certain Mantra Sadhanas through which the Kundalini can be fully activated.

 

It depends on person-to-person how soon Kundalini can be activated. For some it may take six months to activate and for some it may take even more. It is not a rule that one can try the Sadhana of the next Chakra only after the first one has been activated. One can complete the entire Sadhanas one after the other without waiting for results.

 

Fundamental practices for activation of Kundalini shakti :
  • The aspirant should purify his or her body with the aid of Neti, Dhyoti and Vasti.
  • After that, the aspirant should practice eight kinds of Pranayam (Yogic exercises).
  • After that the aspirant should learn from his Guru the essential mudras such as Mahamudra, Mahavedha, Mahabandh, Viparitakarani, Taran, Paridhan, Yuktichalan and Shaktichalani.
  • The aspirant, having perfected all Yogic exercises should concentrate his psyche on "Chakra" according to the method of ‘Raj Yog’.

Some regular exercises are as follows, which if one does regularly derives in the early success of activation :

This will be the upliftment of Kundalini Shakti and the activation of the Muladhar Chakra.
