Logos Lux- Part III
by Neven Paar

A Kundalini awakening affects a person's potential as a Spiritual human being. The awakened one's consciousness encompasses the entirety of our Solar System and its power. Once awareness is raised to the Cosmic level, the newly developed Body of Light becomes an antenna to the vibrations—Spiritual and mundane—within our Solar System.

To understand how this works, you have to think beyond Space and Time, as well as size. Sure, looking at yourself in the mirror, you are tiny in comparison to the Solar System. The average person is only 5'10". But your consciousness is not limited by size because it is Spirit and is everywhere at the same time; hence it is not limited in any way. And awakening the Kundalini means the awakening of consciousness to the Cosmic Level. When your consciousness expands to the size of the Solar System, you receive vibrations from other parts of the Milky Way Galaxy as well as have contact with different inhabitants from different Planets in the Galaxy. How well you receive those vibrations, however, depends on your Soul progression and reaching the higher Spheres (Chakras).

So the totality of your potential then depends on awakening the Kundalini energy. You become an antenna for the vibrations around you. By awakening your Body of Light, you activate the Subtle Bodies, which correspond with Cosmic Planes. As such, your Higher powers, represented by the Planets in our Solar System, open up as well. You exist as the centre of our Solar System. Your Soul is united with the Sun, and you feel its power in your Tiphareth centre, which lies somewhere between the Manipura and Anahata Chakras. You gain direct access to your Higher powers, and as your connection to these Planetary energies strengthens, your morals and ethics are expanded. 

All polytheistic religions personify the Planetary and Zodiacal energies, thereby giving them names and making them a part of their pantheon of Gods and Goddesses. Polytheistic religions are Hermetic in essence since Hermeticism includes the study of our Solar System's energies—the Elements, Planets, and the Zodiac. Knowledge of the Universe we live in is at the core of all religions.

This coincides with the myth of Hermes Trismegistus as the World Teacher who incarnates every 2,000 years to teach the world and bring it back in tune with the essence of Hermeticism. Hermeticism is the philosophy and Spiritual practice of understanding the Milky Way Galaxy and the Solar System. It encompasses the whole of the Qabalah and the Tree of Life since these Universal energies can all be mapped on the Tree of Life. Jesus Christ, although teaching about the monotheistic One God who is love, also walked around with twelve disciples and called himself the "Son of Man," the offspring of the One God. Symbolically, he was the Sun, and his twelve disciples represented the twelve Zodiac signs. He was said to have been the last incarnation of Hermes, whose teachings have shaped the world for 2,000 plus years through Christianity.

Hermes Trismegistus is said to have originated at the height of Egyptian prominence. Sages and Adepts from all over the world came to sit at his feet and learn from him. Then they returned to their respective cultures and countries and used his teachings to establish the religions that have Hermetic teachings and precepts at their core. Their Gods and Goddesses are attributed to the energies of the Planets as well as the Zodiac. Only after Christianity was established, did the polytheistic veil drop and monotheistic religions arose, Islam, being one of them.

Yes, there is a Source from which you came which is the One God who is said to be unconditional love. In reality, you cannot know the One God. You can only know the One God through the many Gods; hence the reason polytheistic religions were the first religions and offered a more elaborate understanding of the Creator through the different aspects of its Creation.

Monotheistic religions are confusing and teach ignorance to people since they took away focus from its Universal and natural component, the Solar System in which we live. Christianity has taken away the duality component and has proclaimed that God is love and nothing more, giving rise to many meek and weak-willed people who let others do their thinking for them. This forgiveness without repercussions aspect has been used to dumb down the masses while those in power reign supreme. 

Jesus taught love. However, metaphorically, he brandished a sword and was severe when necessary. What did he do when he walked into the Holy Temple and saw merchants were using it? He threw their tables on the ground in a furious fit. Every action yields an equal and opposite reaction. If this Law is not respected, then the balance will not be struck, and problems will ensue.

The Christian masses have misinterpreted Jesus' teachings: responsibility for one's life and the lives of others have been replaced by forgiveness and repentance. You have to stand up for what is right and be severe when needed. What does a mother do to protect her child if it's in danger? Anything and everything in her power to counteract the threat. Nevertheless, the true esoteric teachings are re-emerging; the world is undergoing a revival of Hermetic philosophy. Qabalah has become more popular over time, and the veil of secrecy over mystery schools has fallen away with the advent of the internet and its widespread use.

Since it is the driver of human evolution, Kundalini energy must be investigated and normalized. The origin of the word "Kundalini," as well as the use of yoga to awaken it, is part of the Hindu tradition. The traditions of every nation, country, and culture have evolved from their respective placement on Earth. Life in India and life in North America are vastly different.

Kundalini energy in North America needs to develop its usages and practices, separate from its Hindu roots. Since this energy is the force behind human evolution, how it works and operates in a given country and culture needs to be adequately understood. Only then can we adapt its use to our respective cultures and traditions. Although Kundalini induces the same effects, regardless of culture, language, social norms, or geography, it is necessarily associated with religion in Eastern countries. In the West, it may need to take on a more scientific identity, for the very reason that Westerners are more apt to understand and appreciate subjects like Kundalini if they are tied to the scientific method.

The Kundalini energy is best understood through the Caduceus symbol that is carried by the God Hermes (Mercury) and has been around for thousands of years. The Caduceus has two snakes entwined round a central staff terminating in a winged disk with each snake's head facing it. They intersect with each other at six points, which represent the six Chakras and end in the Crown, where the winged disk represents Enlightenment.

The two snakes are the Ida and Pingala Nadis, the carriers of the cold and hot currents in the body. The central staff is Sushumna through which the Kundalini energy passes. The energy rises from the bottom upwards through the spinal column. A hissing vibratory sound accompanies it heard in the head as this is happening. For this reason, the Kundalini has been described as a snake. For this reason, you see much snake symbolism used by Spiritual traditions of old. 

How does the Kundalini operate? What is the timeline for the various effects that occur over time after an awakening? How does one handle the pitfalls that accompany an awakening? These are questions that are best answered through the adequate description, proper analysis, and through logic and reason, to which, Hermeticism offers many keys.

Logic and Reason

Logic and reason are attributes of the Planet Mercury, otherwise known as Hermes in Greek. This same Hermes was named after Hermes Trismegistus, the original carrier of the Caduceus staff, and guide to helping others awaken their Kundalini—the Serpent Power. Logic and reason are the building blocks of intuition and its corollaries. We intuitively know the truth of cosmology. And by accepting this truth, we build our capacity for logic and reason.

We use logic and reason to understand each other and to communicate with each other when talking about different Universal truths. You see, Hermeticism is at the core of existence because it exists as a result of logic and reason in humans. And the Kundalini energy is best studied through Hermeticism because only through logic and reason can we deduce what it is and how it works.

Kundalini is a Fire, but after a long period of burning away the dross and negative energies stored in the Chakras, it becomes liquid Spirit, akin to the Element of Mercury in nature. For this reason, the Alchemists (Hermeticists) termed Philosophical Mercury the highest of the Elements, the Spirit. This change occurs after many years of purging of the negative energy through the use of the Kundalini Fire.

We are at the forefront of discovering how to study and describe Kundalini energy. There needs to be a turning away from the conventional wisdom on Kundalini; minds must embrace new ideas and approaches in studying this evolutionary energy.

Hermeticism is the core of all religions. The Caduceus of Hermes, the first visual example of the Kundalini energy, symbolizes healing for medical professions worldwide. Open your mind to Hermeticism and its power. Learn more about it and its many aspects such as the Qabalah, Tarot, Astrology, and other subjects termed "esoteric" by modern-day society. In it, you will find the keys you have been looking for and an understanding that revolutionizes not only how we perceive the Kundalini, but also how it works and operates.
