On the astral side Swami Muktananda discussed this morning the level which he called the base siddha accomplishment. This is the first level of attainment of a siddha yogi body. According to him there are three distinct levels, all having to do with the various types of kundalini.
He gives three kundalinis which he terms as prana kundalini, chit kundalini and para kundalini. As these are mastered, the yogi’s subtle form changes qualifying the yogi to go to a higher plane of existence after the physical body is repossessed by material nature.
Prana kundalini is the well-known. It is denoted by chakras and the sushumna nadi spinal passage.
Chit kundalini is little known. It has nothing to do with the chakra lay-out and concerns energy awakening in each part of the subtle body of the yogi.
Para kundalini is the breakup of the subtle body and the attainment of objective existence on the causal plane.
The base siddha level is when the yogi rules over the sushumna nadi/chakra system, so that the kundalini loses its interest in the base chakra and remains upright not going down into the sex organ chakra, like a cobra which remains standing on its tail.
Asanas and Pranayama are essential for this to be a permanent attainment of a yogi. With assistance from a yoga guru, or just by sheer accident, a person might experience the kundalini which rises into the head but for a consistent feature, there has to be asana postures and pranayama practice. There should be inner light in the subtle body at least in the trunk of it and in the thighs as far down as the knees.
As during sexual intercourse, there is a pleasure in the form of bliss feelings all over the physical body, so in the subtle body during pranayama practice there should be light all over the subtle body but without focus on the sex organ chakra and with the whole system being dedicated to following kundalini up the spine into the brain.
In sex experience a similar occurrence takes place with the whole system being dedicated to following kundalini as it arcs across from the base chakra (muladhara) to the sex organ chakra, which results in sexual climax bliss pleasure experience.
This contributions of bliss energy of the whole psyche to the sex organ chakra as directed by kundalini’s interest in sexual pleasure, gives one some idea of what should be attained except for a change of objective which is for kundalini to run up through the spine, jump through the neck and arc itself through the brain to the brahma randra crown in the subtle head.
=================================
There are many hidden places which kundalini controls without the core-self having any idea that these places even exist. Some of these locations are revealed during sexual climax experience. Usually the self fails to observe these places because of the flashing over-powering pleasure which is felt during sex. However a yogi can learn to recognize these places during asanas-pranayama practice. This recognition is used to get those places activated, because otherwise they remain as dark corners of the psyche, depriving the yogis of full subtle body cleansing.
Every part of the psyche must be investigated and cleansed of dark astral energy, heavy astral force, so that eventually all of the subtle body is full of very refined astral force.
