Summary
What if the awakening of Kundalinī is not about attaining something new, but recognizing what has always been present? In this conversation, Igor Kufayev shares insights from decades of direct experience with the unfolding of Kundalinī, offering a grounded perspective on a process often surrounded by intensity and misunderstanding. The dialogue explores the relationship between energetic awakening and self-recognition (Pratyabhijñā), emphasizing that true transformation lies not in the movement of energy alone, but in the recognition of awareness as its source. Touching on grace, embodiment, and the maturation of the process over time, this episode offers a steady and clarifying view of Kundalinī as an expression of consciousness coming to know itself.
