I Can Feel the Shakti in Some Gurus and Adepts Like Gopi Krishna, but Not Others, Why Is That?

Why the Shakti of Some Gurus Is Tangibly Felt — and Others’ Is Not
When a person awakens fully through kundalini, their entire subtle system becomes a kind of living conduit for divine force. The currents that once rose in waves during early awakening eventually stabilize into a continuous, radiant flow — what traditions call shakti, spiritus, or the divine current.
Yet this felt presence varies greatly among awakened souls.
1. The Powerhouse Type
Some are like high-voltage generators. Their kundalini is dynamic, overflowing, and still active in transmission. Simply reading their words, hearing their voice, or gazing at their photo can evoke a visceral response — tingling, warmth, joy, peace, or sudden silence of mind.
These are the kundalini gurus — people like Ramakrishna, Anandamayi Ma, or Gopi Krishna. Their energy field is both luminous and kinetic. It doesn’t end with their physical presence because the vibration of their consciousness infuses every medium through which they express themselves.
In such beings, the central channel (sushumna) is utterly open and radiating. The life force no longer moves only within their body but extends into their environment. They are not “sending” energy; they are energy. Their very existence is an act of transmission.
2. The Silent Radiance Type
Then there are masters whose enlightenment is deep but whose kundalini expression is stillness-based. Their shakti is less like a lightning current and more like the still surface of an infinite ocean. Being near them may not produce sensations — no surges, no vibrations — but rather a quiet interior spaciousness, an immense calm.
The difference is not in depth of realization but in energetic mode. The powerhouse type transforms consciousness outwardly and energetically; the silent type transmits through being and presence.
In yogic language, the first operates through Shakti (dynamic power), the second through Shiva (pure awareness).
3. Mixed Types and Individual Resonance
Some realized beings embody both — a fierce current beneath a serene surface. But whether one feels their energy also depends on your own subtle makeup. Two people can sit before the same saint; one trembles in bliss, another feels nothing at all.
The first may have a sensitive, receptive nervous system; the second may have a different tuning, more attuned to silence than vibration. The guru’s emanation meets the seeker’s own subtle field like two tuning forks — resonance occurs when frequencies align.
4. Authenticity vs. Showmanship
And, of course, not all who claim awakening are truly free. Some have partial awakenings — the energy has risen but not fully integrated. Their shakti may feel erratic, heavy, or even agitating. Others might speak of enlightenment as concept rather than realization; their presence feels “flat” because the current hasn’t truly transformed them.
True kundalini realization leaves an unmistakable signature: a natural humility, radiance without display, love without boundary, and a stable sense of the divine breathing through all.
In short:
- Powerhouse gurus radiate living shakti like a current.
- Silent sages radiate stillness like space.
- Your resonance determines what you feel.
- False claimants emit no true energy — only charisma or words.
That’s why you can feel the authentic ones in their writings and photos. Shakti transcends time, distance, and medium; it’s consciousness itself communicating through vibration.
