तेन कुण्डलिनी सुप्ता सन्तप्ता सम्प्रबुध्यते । दण्डाहता भुजङ्गीव निश्वस्य ऋजुतां व्रजेत् ॥ ३.६८ ॥

tena kuṇḍalinī suptā santaptā samprabudhyate । daṇḍāhatā bhujaṅgīva niśvasya ṛjutāṃ vrajet ॥ 3.68 ॥

The Kundalinî, which has been sleeping all this time, becomes well-heated by this and very much awake. It uncoils and becomes straight like a serpent that has been struck dead with a stick.
