The Awakened Kundalini
Spirit - Breath - Wind - Prana - Breeze - Holy Breath - Holy Spirit - Life Force
"Whosever is driven by the Breath of Life, he will be reborn." (Atharva Veda 11:4)

"The Tao is the breath that never dies. It is the Mother of All Creation. It is the root and ground of every soul - the fountain of Heaven and Earth, laid open." (Tao Te Ching, chap. 6)

"God the Mother is the Holy Breath" (Aquarian Gospel)

"The Breath of Life is everything" (Chandogya Upanishad 5:1:17)
In Sanskrit, one of the names of the Great Goddess is "Prana Rupini" : She who manifests as breath.

The ancient Hebrew name of God, Yahweh is derived from the root HWY, which also means wind.

In ancient Europe, this all-pervading power was known as Pneuma (Latin) and Anima (Greek).

In Christianity, the word Spirit comes from Latin "Spiritus" meaning "breath". So Holy Spiritus is the Holy (Sacred) Breath/Wind.

In the Scriptures, in Hebrew, the word for Spirit is Ruach, which is a feminine noun.

So the Holy Spirit is really the feminine nature of God. So the Trinity would be rather : The Father, the Son and the Holy Mother, who is also the Comforter, the Counsellor, the Redeemer.
The Wind of the Pentecost, the "tongue of flames" emanating from the crown of the head of the Apostles may be the sign of the union, the second birth, the yoga, the religion, when the Kundalini or Holy Spirit awakens to connect us to God Almighty, giving us the inner knowledge of the Self, the Spirit, and making us know God from within.
"Still the breath Divine does move. And the breath Divine is Love" (Everlasting Gospel 41-42 by William Blake)

"The Kundalini uncoils herself, shakes off her lethargy, and stands erects (...) She then reaches the palms (...), creating a draught, the life wind emerges (...) and creates a cooling sensation in the body internally as also externally." (Gnyaneshwara (1275) in Gnaneshwari (6:14))

"On that day
We Shall seal their Mouths
Their hands will speak"
(Holy Koran : Verse 36.66)

"The Spirit can make itself felt as a soft breeze" (ancient book of Job (4:15))

"In the heart resides the atman, the Self. It is the centre of a hundred and one little channels. In these moves the breath." (Prashna Upanishad)

"When the breath flows through the Sushumna, the mind becomes steady." (Hathayogapradipika, 2:42)
In the Hebrew traditions of the Kabbalah, the Kundalini is known as the Shekinah, in China as the Tao, in Africa as N'Go, in Christianity as the Holy Spirit reflected in man and in Islam as the Assas.
In ancient Greece & Rome, the ascent of the Kundalini and her union with the Atma-Spirit are represented by the cup of Hygeia & the Serpent of Asclepsios. Also as Cadeceus and Hermes

"The Kundalini, in the form of latency, is coiled like a serpent. One who impels this Shakti (power) to move will attain liberation." (Hathayogapradipika, 3:108)

"My Mother - who is the Holy Spirit, Lifted me by one of my hairs." (The Gospel of Hebrews)

"Come Holy Spirit. Come thou that giveth joy. Power of the Father, Come hidden Mother." (Acts of Thomas)

"Shakti-Kundalini or Devi-Kundalini is a goddess. She is the female principle, the self manifesting power which surrounds the gem at the center, the gold seed, the jewel, the pearl, the egg. The Kundalini serpent is, however, also Devi-Kundalini, a chain of glittering lights, the 'world bewilderer'." (Psychology in Kundalini Yoga, lectures 1930, Carl Jung)

"...There is in everyone (divine power) existing in a latent condition...
This is the power divided above and below; generating itself, making itself grow, seeking itself, finding itself, being mother of itself,... unity, being the source of the entire ceircle of existence." (Hypolytus, Elaine Pagels, The Gnostic Gospels p60)
(Jesus, to the disciples, Last Supper) "If you love me you will obey my commands; and I will ask the Father, and he will give you another to be your Advocate, who will be with you for ever - the Spirit of Truth (...)
And the word you hear is not mine; it is the word of the Father who sent me. I have told you al this while I am still here with you; but your Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and will call to mind all that I have told you." (The New English Bible, John ch.14 v 15 & 25)

"Your Mother is within you, and you are within her. It is She who has given you birth and given you life." (Evangile Essanien, E. Bordeaux-Szekely)

"May She who is before all things. The incomprehensible Grace, Fill you within, And increase in you her knowledge." (Elaine Pagels : Les Evangiles Secrets The Gnostics Gospels)
