DARKNESS<br />
that Old Wise Serpent that carries us above death's bony grasp.<br />
The Vedas teach the principle and practice of raising the Serpent<br />
Kundalini, thereby connecting and empowering the Chakras to<br />
maximum potential. This is usually done through years of Yogic<br />
discipline, the final culmination of the Kundalini power thrusting the<br />
Soul from the body through the Crown Chakra. The liberated Soul<br />
then is said to cross over into the highest heaven, meeting with Krishna<br />

Yogi will approach each respective Chakra. The Qabbalist will "climb"<br />

his wrath upon the face of the earth.<br />
The Serpent is not the Path nor the palace at the end of the path,<br />
but is the motion and the power of each step taken. It is not Magick in<br />
all of its forms and religions, but is the energetic current that swarms<br />
beneath the fa
