There are six centers (cakras) in the spinal channel. Kunḍalini is said to be initially coiled up at mulādhara.

She is the Mother. She passes through these six from mulādhara at the bottom of spine to ajna at the forehead, then to the crown of the head (sahasrāra) where individual consciousness fully unites with cosmic consciousness.
