"The Kundalini awakening is very clearly described by Adi Shankaracharya. He has said it one of his couplets, “Na yogya, na sankhya.” By all these tricks and by reading about Kundalini, the Kundalini does not rise. Only through the Mother’s grace, it will rise.... Adi Shankaracharya was asked, “Which is the greatest quality?” He said, “Devi bhakti, Mother’s bhakti.” She is Devi. Your Mother is the Devi. Understanding that you should do Her bhakti, in that bhakti, there should not be any falsehood. The first quality, the highest quality, if it is seen in a human being from his heart, all his bad qualities will be destroyed. He will get light and attain moksha. That is why Shankaracharya has always praised theDevi.... He said, “By only pleasing the Devi one can get everything, then why do these things? Why to do debates? Why to do discourses and break one’s head? Just praise the Devi and you will get whatever one wants.” His intelligence very few people have. When that intelligence comes into us, then you will get the authority."
