Can Kundalini energy get "stuck"?
Namaste fellow HDF members,
Forgive the following post of my ignorance of Kundalini. I wish I could say I had greater knowledge of its nature and workings, but as it is, I still have only a very rudimentary grasp of what this spiritual energy does and where it uncoils along the chakras. I think my topic title might sound a little odd, but I'm not really sure how else to phrase my problem.
Can Kundalini become wound too tightly around a particular nerve centre or chakra? I realise I may be oversimplfying things here when I say that the chakras have been known to correspond to particular feelings, emotions, physical manifestations in the body, but would it be possible for Kundalini in its unfolding along the spine become fixated on a certain place and not budge for a while? I don't want to get too personal here, but I've been experiencing certain things that to my eyes seem a little uncharacteristic of my nature. Not that I've never experienced these mental and emotional pangs (I guess you could call them "urges", but that might be going a bit overboard), but never to this extent and I've been feeling it more intensely now over the last two months? It feels like "trapped energy" somewhere, and I was sincerely hoping there is someway I can direct that more efficiently than I have been doing in my regular japa and meditation. Most of the energy here that I am talking about is of the rajasic kind. It's not bad, but it's become something of a nuisance. I have tried reading about it, but I'm not sure if I've been looking in the right areas, or if I'm even just imagining it all. Could it be energy from the lower chakras (from the muladhara downward towards the feet?) Nothing major has really happened in my life that might lead to an explanation for this change. I'm just a bit confused right now. Could anyone please give me their thoughts on this?
