Enlightenment Meditation

Each of us has the power to awaken the divine within. We all have a secret power lying dormant waiting to awaken and arise, coiled like a snake at the base of our being. It is the stuff of legend, but the truth of life that honors the call to spiritual enlightenment and living in the frequency of creation. It is this force that brings you in contact with pure consciousness. This powerful, primal energy is known as Kundalini, and awakening this dormant life force is just the beginning of walking the path of enlightenment.

What is karma? Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds, virtues and sins. The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions.

It isn’t some external system of crime and punishment, but an internal cycle generated by you. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you.
