    Like I had written in my post I lived with kundalini since I was fifteen and learned TM. I am still always kundalini-positive. If you need someone to talk to you can PM me as well.

    Well, again, why? I mean, when I learned my life effectively was over even though I was just fifteen. That's to say I was a Hollywood punk rocker fast becoming a street person. With no hope and prospects for the future. So I was a perfect candidate because I had already learned some natural renunciation. But as it turns out the renunciation cuts one some mental slack to practice. Otherwise one stays merely attuned to the tensions and tunes of the day. For most of their whole life. Kundalini is transcending, for real escapists. I have to recommend Dzogchen for those of you who wish to transcend because they have the best mental techniques which will guide you and give you mental stability for when your kundalini is making your mind all topsy turvey. Of course I have also always taught that placing ones entire life is care of the Divine Mother is also a way to feel perfectly fine with kundalini. Since Kundalini is Ma. Ones own mother, the intelligence which shoots through all things. Ma is ones own empty and clear nature. And since it is empty that is its perfection, because that sameness exists at every point. Ma is everywhere. Kundalini will provide a life of perfection at every point if one lets it, but it's a real roller coaster and so one must ask if they have the necessary renunciation to practice, because otherwise people will think one is off their rocker.

    Okay, I'll tell you the sort of fortitude that's needed to live with active kundalini. When I was fourteen I was taking a lot of acid, and I started having really bad trips. Really hellish and scary. My mind just went haywire, and what saved me from being a gibbering idiot was the fact that my basic awareness never changed while I watched everything going nuts like a movie. In other words, I had some basic witness state which is necessary for ones wisdom. If you have not the sort of renunciation to awaken to the fact that your basic conscious person does not change then you will have to spend lots of year meditating to clarify that.

    However, acid trips did not spark my kundalini to life. It was the TM initiation which awakened my kundalini. That, hugging someone like Ammachi, or from a place like Devi Mandir or Devipuram. That's the way to go for awakening kundalini. It must be religious, in the Shakta tradition. One must praise Sri Devi if they are under Her influence. It balances ones chakras effortlessly to praise the Divine Mother. This is very important.

    Kundalini was not meant to be some pointless exercise but the way to complete escape from samsara, which is why Kundalini is Maa Tara, She who ferries one across the ocean of existance. In the blink of an eye.

    How are you able to tell if you've had a kundalini awakening?

    When i meditate and raise my kundalini energy i can feel the energy flowing up through my body, but i still can't bring it all the way up through my crown chakra, it mostly flows up to the chakra by my eyes (lol don't know the name) but yeah i've been doing this for about 2 months and letting it gradually get higher and higher, should i try to keep raising it higher or just let it go its own course?
    Also when i raise it, it fucks with my mind hardcore lol, i can definately see why people can go crazy... but yeah anyway i'm not really worried about that because it hasn't caused me any problems, and ive been through some crazy ass trips, but is this normal for it to do that or does that mean im doing something wrong...?
    Help is appreciated, would also like someone who has been awakened to talk to and ask some more stuff...
    thanks in advance

    Sense of expansiveness and pervasiveness. Sense of flowing smoothness of energy. At a minimum.

    Lightness in the mind.

    Crown chakra is not a specific spot on the head and the center is large so you will not have the sense of placement with regard to it. Crown chakra will be more experienced as spaciousness of mind.

    For me, after learning TM kundalini was spontaneous any time I would sit in meditation. I never made any effort to control it.

    I have thoughts on the subject of when people say "I controlled kundalini" or "I raised kundalini" as not being really possible outside of ones practice since one is kundalini, so who is controlling whom and so on.

    Kundalini outside of the spiritual context of spiritual expansion of awareness has no purpose so I wonder what's the point? It's not something which someone does for fun and games. Or to just get high.

    Also, I have never noticed kundalini stopping under any circumstances save for when I have been on opiates for pain, which does seem to step down the current quite a bit.

    One day a person looks in the mirror and sees a face and body looking back. After kundalini has been awakened and one has cleared their nadis to a degree then one stops seeing their face as much as one feels like they are energy flowing and a face is there on top.

    Hard to really describe. That was just an analogy and not literal. The point being that after kundalini one is not feeling they are a body as much as a living being.

    That's about as good as I can do.

    You will know when you have a kundalini awakening it feels like reality is ripping apart and you are exploding. It is like god gave you the electric chair but the energy is pure bliss. i have only experienced it once on Sep. 5 2000 for about 30-45min. i have experienced alot of pranic awakenings where energy flows up the spine and gives you energy rushes.

    kundalini is always like a microdose, to me.
    unless I dance all night,
    then I can touch samadhi by the misty shore.

    kundalini, so sublte
    the way I move my hips and twitch laugh smile sit and breathe twang the strings help everyone come together see the galaxy drip down your face ignites everything blooming and the healing potential of the atom

    I've also taken notes of opiates seriously damning the flow of kundalini.
    that makes two of us.

    I was blessed to have wandered into the writings of Swami Satyananda and His primary Kundalini texts "Kundalini Tantra" and "Yoga and Kriya", which are specifically designed for this modern era to self instruct oneself the necessary Sadhana to awaken the Devi and hopefully allow Her access to the higher cakras.
    But the emphasis here is that these books comprise an entire complete Yoga Sadhana that you follow throughout the remainder of your life, as I do now and have been for twelve years. I have documented my complete Kundalini quest in a book called "Kundalini Dream, A True Adventure In Yoga Tantra".
    But this experience is not for kicks or the light hearted, and only many years of massive old school acid trips "back in the day", prepared me for only the lower level stuff. Its alot like Chodpa said, you can be looking in the mirror, and suddenly realize that you don't have an awakened Kundalini. Instead, what you are is the Kundalini, dressing with your identity.
    The Kriya/Laya Yoga system must be completely followed in order for all karmic blocks be removed from the cakras, all the nadis opened, especially the sushumna, and all of Her inner levels. AND, your experience of living with normal society gets very strange and possibly overbearing as you realize the deep Maya everyone is in and you can't tell them of.
    So before you awaken the Devi and get Her back into Shiva Dham, you better know how to handle the secrets to the kingdom, because that is what you get, as well as constant boughts of intense Samadhi.
    The pilgrimage to the throne of the Kundalini Devi is welcomed by Her, and you will be definitely be blessed overall spiritually, and the levels of reality She will deliver you to are indeed Supreme, but be prepared for the ultimate trip. Namaste Love Ananda Service Bhairava Atmabhoda

    I can recommend giving kundalini yoga a try! I've only been doing it for a year now, but I love it. It did change my life for the better from the start.

    One thing I will suggest is this: Don't go to it just for the fireworks and wacky feelings. You'll most likely get those, but those aren't the point. I believe Yogi Bhajan called those just "glitter on the bottom rung of the ladder." There's way, way more beyond that.

    Sat nam! ;)
