atom of the universe.  

Shiva is the male principle, pure consciousness, the un-manifest, denoted in Tantric texts by

 the white upward facing triangle. Shakti is the dynamic feminine energy, the manifest, 

denoted by the red downward facing triangle. The universe in all its diversity arises from the

 union of these two principles. 

In its dormant state, Kundalini Shakti is represented by a coiled snake, nestled at the base of the spine. 

When this energy is awakened, it ascends through the 7 chakras to unite above the crown of the head with

Shiva.

This consummation creates an experience

 of bliss. This Kundalini Shakti in each 

one of us, unites us and connects us in the

 dance of Shiva.
