Kundalini, Acc. To Gurmat it’s "ignorance", "delusion", "unlearned", "unwise is Kundalini means the knoting of one’s mind, or Doubts and confusions in ones mind is called Kundalini.

Acc. to Yogic belief, Kundalini literally means coiled. This is power acc. To Tantra and Yoga. According to the Yogis, there are two nerve currents in the spinal column, called Pingala and Ida, and a hollow canal called Subhuman running through the spinal cord. At the lower end of the hollow canal is what the Yogis call the "Lotus of the Kundalini". They describe it as triangular in form in which, in the symbolical language of the Yogis, there is a power called the Kundalini, coiled up. When that Kundalini awakes, it tries to force a passage through this hollow canal, and as it rises step by step, as it were, layer after layer of the mind becomes open and all the different visions and wonderful powers come to the Yogi. When it reaches the brain, the Yogi is perfectly detached from the body and mind; the soul finds itself free. This is also called 'serpent power'.

This belief is not supported by Gurmat as Yoga is just a physical exercise but not related to spiritual wisdom. According to Gurmat , the Knot of ignorance, unwise and unenlightening in thoughts is called Kundalini. It is much cleared with following lines

ਕ੝ੰਡਲਨੀ ਸ੝ਰਝੀ ਸਤਸੰਗਤਿ ਪਰਮਾਨੰਦ ਗ੝ਰੂ ਮ੝ਖਿ ਮਚਾ ॥

ਕ੝ੰਡਲਨੀ : Knot of Mann (Mann di Gunjhal)
ਸ੝ਰਝੀ : Solve
ਸਤਸੰਗਤਿ : The True Sangat
ਪਰਮਾਨੰਦ : the great bliss
ਗ੝ਰੂ ਮ੝ਖਿ :The one who have face towards guru
ਮਚਾ : True

Which means Kundalini (Ignorance and Delusion) could be corrected in company of Truth and one can get the supreme bliss with True Guru's Company only. These lines continue with

ਸਿਰੀ ਗ੝ਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ੝ ਸਭ ਊਪਰਿ ਮਨ ਬਚ ਕ੝ਰੰਮ ਸੇਵੀਝ ਸਚਾ ॥੫॥

Guru is above all, and serve that Guru in your thoughts(Mann). Give attention to that guru only.
