Background
Guru Sanju explains that general Kundalini advice often fails because Kundalini is specific to the individual. She teaches that Kundalini is life force and the intelligence of life itself, continually giving signals about what the body and life need in a particular moment. When these signals are replaced by generalized practices, excessive thinking, or advice gathered indiscriminately from outside sources, the individual can move further away from instinctive intelligence.
She emphasizes reconnecting with the instinctive and limbic brain, engaging the senses, experiencing nature directly, and understanding the specific location and purpose of Kundalini blockages. Through examples involving animals, herbs, sunlight, jungle environments, grounding, prana, and food selection, she explains why individual diagnosis must come before techniques. Her central teaching is that Kundalini should be approached responsibly through specific diagnosis, appropriate practices, and the guidance of a Guru who has walked the path.
Kundalini Is Specific to You
General Kundalini advice will not work because Kundalini is specific to you. If I am feeling heat and sweat on my body, my instinctive brain may guide me to use a leaf to fan myself, and I immediately feel better. This instinctive intelligence is already built into your system.
Kundalini is your life force. Kundalini is the intelligence of your life. If you are not following the intelligence of your life force, no general advice is going to work for you.
Your Life Already Operates Through Life Force
You eat, drink, have sex, sleep, clear your bowel, move your body, and live your life because of Kundalini. Your brain receives signals that are sensed by your instinctive, primitive brain and guide you in how to live.
As a child, you lived much more instinctively. As you started controlling your life, your mind and prefrontal cortex became increasingly prominent. Gradually, you stopped using your instinctive brain and your limbic brain.
Your limbic brain is connected with the feeling centers of your body. When you are genuinely feeling your life, you do not have to depend entirely upon the prefrontal cortex, the thinking brain, to tell you how to live.
Too Many General Practices Can Make You Suffer
If you continually take general advice from general sources, you may begin living according to practices that have nothing specifically to do with your condition. You may become involved in too much breathwork, meditation, different forms of spiritual practices, energy work, athletic activities, or dynamic forms of energy work.
If these are not what your individual Kundalini needs, you are going to suffer. You need specific advice based on what is actually happening within your life force.
Animals Still Use Their Instinctive Intelligence
Consider medication or an herb used for a particular condition. Can you simply pick something yourself and know whether it is the correct medicine for you?
I have seen dogs and other animals use their sensing power to identify vegetables, grasses, or plants they consume when dealing with digestive problems. Animals can sense what they need. But can you simply smell something and know whether you should eat it?
Most people cannot. You depend upon research and accumulated knowledge to know whether something is safe and useful.
Human Knowledge Developed Through Experience
How did humanity discover that a particular herb or vegetable was useful in the first place? Somewhere during our evolutionary journey, someone had to invest in life and discover whether something was edible or not.
Through eating, experiencing, sensing, and evolving through the process, human beings gradually learned what could and could not be consumed. The sense of smell was also part of this process.
For example, there are herbs found in regions such as the Himalayas that local people use for herbal purposes and for certain conditions. When I encounter such an herb, its smell itself becomes part of my experience of it. Knowledge comes through investment and experience in life.
The Guru Gives What Is Specific to You
How does the Guru know what is required? The Guru has invested in the path. That is why the Guru can give you the tonic or treatment required for a specific purpose.
Your Kundalini moves in different directions at different times. It may be blocked in particular chakras or centers. It may become blocked in your head, another region of your body, or your root center.
There is a specific purpose behind where Kundalini becomes blocked, and I teach that the Guru knows how to unblock you from that particular condition.
Natural Energy Has to Be Used Specifically
If I want to open you up, I may take you into an energy vortex filled with natural resources and natural sources of prana. Even within the same natural environment, different areas can feel completely different.
When I move from a sunlit area into a cooler area, I can immediately feel the change and the presence of greater coolness. I connect this with the presence of more oxygen in that area. I also teach that the sun is a source of negative ions, and you have to take sunlight in the proper way so that it can be absorbed into your body.
When you do this correctly, I teach that you can become free from Kundalini symptoms. But if you simply follow general advice to take a sunbath without paying attention to what is happening within your body, the advice itself is not enough.
A Jungle Walk Is More Than Simply Walking
A jungle walk can be important in a specific way. You have to engage your senses in a particular way so that your instinctive brain becomes activated.
When I enter a jungle, I make maximum use of the experience. I can sit directly on the earth, enjoy the ground beneath me, feel the sun shining above me, smell the fragrance of the jungle, and experience the entire atmosphere of the jungle in the present moment.
When I ground myself this way, physical releases such as a burp can happen. I understand this as a sign that my prana has become activated.
The Five Pranas Support Kundalini Movement
Prana exists in five varieties in the body, and these pranas perform different functions. When these functions are happening properly, you are allowing Kundalini to progress within you.
This is different from blindly following general advice about doing a particular breathwork technique, extensive meditation, extensive breathwork, or one common practice prescribed to everyone.
Do Not Experiment Irresponsibly With Kundalini
You may watch people on different social media platforms and immediately implement their practices on yourself. But think about how carefully you choose something as basic as food.
You purchase food from a market where it has been authorized, tested, and verified. You would not simply pick an unknown leaf and consume it like an animal because animals have a sensing power that most people no longer use in the same way.
Then how can you take general Kundalini advice from people on social media or other sources when that advice may not be meant for you? If you would not consume unknown food irresponsibly, how can you treat Kundalini—the life force within you—so irresponsibly?
The Guru Knows the Way
You have to take responsibility for moving Kundalini with the Guru’s presence and advice. The Guru knows the way because the Guru has walked the path.
I have walked the path, and that is why I know exactly what needs to be done. Without my specific advice, I teach that you may put yourself in danger, continue experiencing Kundalini symptoms throughout life, and never become free from them.
I am free from confusion regarding Kundalini because I have invested in myself. I have learned through universal guidance, grace, and the intelligence of the universe.
Diagnosis Must Come Before the Solution
If you want to work on yourself, first get yourself diagnosed. Diagnosis is the first step. Once you know what is actually happening, you can work on the solution for your Kundalini.
Then you have to use the right practices and techniques to move Kundalini in the way that is useful for your life force. Your life force has to move toward the purpose for which it was activated within you.
General advice, doing every available practice, or consuming something simply because it is recommended generally is not going to work. You have to learn the instinctive way, break your barriers, and activate the life force within you through the Guru.
