How can we recognize the awakening of Kundalini within us?

According to Osho, kundalini’s awakening is self-evident—like hunger or pain—an unmistakable inner event. It is felt as energy naturally rising from below the navel toward the head, like fire ascending or a serpent uncoiling and lifting its hood. Symbols vary by person, but the certainty is within. Collective meditation can catalyze the first taste; once known, it cannot be lost.
