Something like:

class Kundalini:
    def __chakra1__(self): "Muladhara"
    def __chakra2__(self): "Swadhisthana"
    def __chakra3__(self): "Manipura"
    def __chakra4__(self): "Anahata"
    def __chakra5__(self): "Vishuddha"
    def __chakra6__(self): "Ajna"
    def __chakra7__(self): "Sahasrara"


comes to mind as a good mnemonic, acknowledging up front this isn't a real
magic name (so it'd mangle, not crash -- the above is legal Python, OK to
have docstring instead of pass).

The point of using underunder (dunder) is to remind us of ribs (__ribs__)
which is what a snake has (a backbone) and what a kundalini is.

Anyway, I'm supposed to be working.  Enough water cooler mumbo jumbo.

Back to the cube (somewhat figurative in my case, though I've been an
indigenous cube farmer in my day).**
