Kuṇḍalinī is the light that explodes into insight beyond the threshold of limited self-identification into the vast Consciousness of everything. (Samvitti)Credit: Florentine Faltlin
You can enter Her freedom through many doorways: Looking into Her force in nature, examining the hidden forces behind your limited perspective, and invoking Her fire to help you dissolve debilitating thought-constructs, emotional patterns, and negative and laten tendencies—a ritual to sacrifice these samsaric energies into Her fire of transformation.
Before you begin, consider the qualities of egoic consciousness obstructing the joy of being, love, wisdom, and your freedom. It might be anger or the kind of pride that makes you hold back from life. It might be resistance to practice and to the path of surrender. It might be fear - including the fear of letting go of your egoic contractions and opening to your capacity for clear, powerful action from an unbounded place.
Imagine that the Goddess Kuṇḍalinī stands before you. In front of Her is a fire, its flames rising in jeweled colors. Imagine yourself before Her. Imagine your negative tendencies/misunderstandings as a cloak that covers your body/mind/awareness causing you to act from a limited place. Peel away the cloak, and throw it into the fire. Watch it dissolve in the flames, ash rising and sweeping over you, leaving a residue of insight and understanding.
From that residue of insight and understanding look deeper to see an even more thinly-veiled cloak, which even further obscures your knowing your true Self. Peel away the cloak, and throw it into the fire. Watch it dissolve in the flames, ash rising and sweeping over you, leaving a more luminous residue of insight and understanding.
Now surrender that insight and understanding and see the profoundly subtle veiled cloak, the insidious experience of willfulness. Peel away the cloak, and throw it into the fire of awareness. Watch it dissolve in the flames, ash rising & sweeping over you, leaving a direct experience of your highest essence.

Make a note describing the resonance of the experience. Word-smith it to make sure it is a clear and concise articulation of the moment.
Create as a flash card to remind you to find, enter into, and establish your Self there moment by moment. (you might even make a copy and post it on your refrigerator door)!
