The samadhi that follows Kundalini awakening is not the kind of samadhi
which makes you inert. it is a conscious samadhi; it makes you more
alert, more aware. this state has been called in the Shiva Sutras:
lokanandah samadhisukham, "The bliss of the world is the exstasy
of samadhi." (from the Shiva Sutra 1:18) In this state one recognizes
the presence of God in everything. the whole purpose of Kundalini
awakening is to attain this natural samadhi while continuing to function
in the world."
- Swami Muktananda, Kundalini: The Secret of Life
