kundalini

Where it comes from

From Sanskrit कुण्डलिनी (kuṇḍalinī, “coiled”).

noun kundalinis

countable, uncountable An energy said to lie coiled at the base of the spine and to be released by yoga. For us it is, of course, a symbol of the caduceus of Aesculapius, of the spinal column, of the kundalini-serpent of the Indians – you will be able to trace the ancestry of the idea through many continents and many religions.
