There is neither past nor future. There is only the present. Yesterday was the present to you when you experienced it, and tomorrow will also be the present when you experience it. Therefore, experience takes place only in the present, and beyond experience nothing exists.

Kundalini

A visitor: I don’t know what kundalini is.

Bhagavan: Kundalini is one name given by the yogic people for what may be called the atma sakti inside the body. The vichara school calls the same power jnana. The bhakta calls it love or bhakti. The yogic school says that this power is dormant in muladhara at the base of the spinal cord and that it must be roused and taken through the various chakras on to sahasrara at the top, in the brain, to attain moksha. The jnanis think this power is centred in the heart, and so on.
