Kundalini or the sexual energy hidden in the muladhara chakara is compared to a coiled snake. When the body is subjected to austerities and purification through celibacy and other practices, the heat (tapas) generated in the process activates the kundalini. Then, like a coiled serpent it ascends gradually through the higher chakras until it reaches the highest chakra, the Sahasrara, whereby a yogi experiences enlightenment and the highest bliss.
