The Serpent's Milk

The Fast Path?
In the esoteric circles, it is whispered that Cannabis is "Kundalini Milk."
They claim it feeds the Serpent Power at the base of the spine (Muladhara), shaking it awake.
Is this true?
The Mechanism:Cannabis dissolves the Granthis (Psychic Knots).
- Brahma Granthi (Base/Fear/Survival): THC suppresses the fear response (Amygdala), loosening the grip of survival instinct.
- Vishnu Granthi (Heart/Ego/Identity): High doses dissolve the ego boundaries.
- Rudra Granthi (Third Eye/Logic): It disrupts linear logic, opening intuition.
When these knots loosen, the dormant energy can rush up.
The Danger: The Unprepared Wire
Imagine sending 1000 Volts through a 12 Volt wire. The wire melts.
This is the danger of drug-induced Kundalini.
If the Nadis (nervous system) are not purified by years of sobriety and discipline, the surge of energy has nowhere to flow. It gets stuck.
- Stuck in the gut = Nausea/Vomiting (Cannabinoid Hyperemesis).
- Stuck in the heart = Panic/Paranoia.
- Stuck in the head = Psychosis/Fragmentation.
The Tantric Safety Valve
The Tantrics use the plant after the system is prepared, not to start the engine.
They view the plant as Shakti (Energy).
They view the meditator as Shiva (Consciousness).
If Shakti rises without Shiva present (if you are high but mindful presence is lost), she becomes Kali—the destroyer. She eats the user.
The Golden Rule:Never chase the Snake.
If the energy starts to rise (heat, vibration, shaking), do not push it. Ground it.
Put your hands on the earth. Eat food. Breathe slowly.
Let the Serpent sleep until she wakes up on her own.
"He who forces the snake to dance will eventually get bitten."
