Kundalini is a little different. It will open normally only after the student learns to raise his or her consciousness to above the solar plexus. This means that if you want kundalini you are expressing from the solar plexus since this is the center of desire. Eliminate wanting and see what happens. Behave first as though it is already a fact and it will be. When the time is correct it will happen naturally. You may feel something but probably not because you will have already earned by virtue of years of hard work in disciplining your lower mind the ability to use it once it is open.

Do not think of spirituality as though it were an ordinary scholastic pursuit. It is not. It is about more than intellectuality. Spiritual advancement is not a thing which the ordinary mind can mandate. It is not an ability. It is a result. The most important thing is a firm sense of humility and harmlessness to all others.

In your meditations you see geometric shapes. Are they passing your field of view from left to right? This is good. You are developing vision on the ethereal plane in this. It is done via your third eye. It is good but it is not enough. Devote yourself to service to others. Deny your human inclination to want spiritual advancement. Instead do those things that Masters do. Serve the less fortunate never asking anything in return. The spiritual master is an agent of God, to the Earth, nothing less.

In the history of the world the spiritually advanced have always lived lives of denial. They did not want things. They have cared nothing for titles. Instead they acted every day as though they were already at the goal. This is all that is necessary

We hope that you will find this post acceptable.

Yeah actually, this is right. You are a smart guy. I couldnt have said it better. The chakra activation will come naturally, as I've noticed. It didn't happen when I tried to do it, but it happened when I was at exhilarating moments in my life. Like when something exciting happens, and you get shivers in your neck and down your spine.
