'Prana' is a sanskrit term for the unseen life energy, also known as chi. Prana is said to be the true energy source for all life and is directly related to the concept of Kundalini.

This piece picks up where 'Mudra' leaves off, becoming much more detailed and bizarre in the process. Serpents, jaws, bones, teeth, fingers and other strange structures emerge and meld around the mind of the meditating figure.

During research into the concept of Kundalini, I discovered that while Kundalini is said to open serious spititual pathways and glorious states of awareness for the enlightened person, this same power, tapped by the unprepared, can be harrowing. See 'Kundalini - The Evolutionary Energy in Man' by Gopi Krishna, a former accountant in India whose meditative practices unleashed the Kundalini power within him. An eloquent and fascinating read.
