Spiritual Secret of Kashi
“Kashi” is a part of our body. It manifests in the six chakras present in our bodies, and as the ajna chakra.
Ultimately, Kashi is an attribute of the seed of the effulgent Paramatma.
The Kashi tatva is experienced particularly when the kundalini shakti reaches the Sahasra chakra.
The other name of Kashi is Varanasi. Varuna and Asi are two streams. The mid portion of these two streams is Varanasi. The two flow into the Ganga and unite. In the same way, the Yamuna and Sarasvati also unite into the Ganga. When we talk about the Ganga, we automatically express our thoughts towards the Yamuna and Sarasvati.
The above description refers to the Ida, Pingala and Sushumna nadis. The point of the origin of the three nadis is called “Kashi”. When the kundalini shakti rises above the Ajna chakra and stays stable there for some time in the Sahasra chakra, that is also known as the abode of Kashi in our lives.
