Kundalini Shakti and the Heart Chakra

Kundalini Shakti appears as a beautiful Goddess when she is representing in the paintings of the heart chakra. She sits in lotus position within an upward pointing triangle (symbolizing the rising of Kundalini).

Like Kakini Shakti, she a personification of spiritual devotion. She sits absorbed in meditation attempting to achieve union with Source.

At the level of the heart chakra, Kundalini Shakti is no longer the serpentine force of the first chakra

When one's sensory and intellectual mind is completely absorbed in her, divine love pervades the body of the aspirant.

Kakini Shakti

Kakini Shakti is the doorkeeper of Anahata Chakra. She moves like air to provide energy to the entire body. She symbolizes self-generating and self-emanating energy

She is all about devotion and bhakti: devotional music, devotional poetry and devotional art. She brings calmness to the mind and peace to the ego. She helps us connect our heart beat with the rhythm of the universe.

Her sword represents cutting through obstacles. Her shield represents protection from worldly conditions.  The Skull  she carries represents detachment from the body.  Her trident represents balance of preservation, creation and destruction

She has 4 faces and energy flows the her four heads in to the four aspects of individual self: physical self, rational self, sensual self and the emotional self.

She is auspicious, joyful and the benefactress of all. Art, music and poetry created under the influence of Kakini bring calmness to the mind and peace to the ego and intellect. The creativity endeavors made under her auspices can become so absorbing that one’s sense of I-consciousness dissolves away
