definition
"The awakening of kundalini is a transformative fire that consumes the unnecessary, burning away the weight of fear and anger, leaving only the essence needed for your inner ascent."
According to Osho, the saying that awakened kundalini “eats the flesh and drinks the blood” points to an intense, almost literal, physiological and psychological transmutation. The rising energy acts like inner fire, burning surplus flesh, blood, and stored patterns built by fear, anger, or miserliness, leaving only what’s needed. This lightens you for inner ascent, so prepare with harmonious living, loving chemistry, and supportive diet and environment.
It means your inner energy burns away extra body stuff and old habits, reshaping you so you feel lighter inside.
