Core Kundalini Indicators Summary

Classical Kundalini awakening indicators were derived from previous surveys and existing literature. Sixty-six (66) "core experience" questions were created to measure the most commonly reported indicators. In the data, these are represented as the mystical, spiritual, and psychophys (psychophysiolocical) question categories.

Mystical indicators are those that typically transcend the normal bounds of human experience. Spiritual indicators are those that, although they may have sublime characteristics, can be easily cognized or imagined. Psychophysiological indicators are those that affect the body and mind through some not yet understood connecting medium.

In general, the data shows a very common occurrence of powerful, transformative experiences among respondents.
