Though the Kundalini has to rise through six centres, Mooladhara protects the purity and chastity of the Kundalini at the time of its awakening. Mooladhara is for our innocence and one should know that innocence can never be destroyed. Too much thinking about and indulging in Sex weakens this centre. Despite all arbitrary abandonment of natural laws, innocence, the power of Mooladhara, remains, in a sleeping or sick state which can be cured and normalised through Kundalini awakening.
