Sri Ramana Maharshi says that Kundalini is Self. I've spent some time
trying to understand this, and I don't know if it's possible other than to
know the Kundalini you have to know the Self. However I think about it, I
can't make up a working theory, perhaps that's my downfall.
Perhaps prana is diluted Self? All is Self but of different strength?
Kundalini is in all the bodies is my understanding.
There is so much we don't know about Kundalini and I think will continue to
not know for thousands of years.
