Dear Sir, pardon my interlocutor status, but with your indulgence
I will
make a comment---------

There is a higher and a lower kundalini. It works all the time!!

However, to transform upward requires following the discipline
outlined
in the VOS. The first big hurdle is to adopt and plant in life
the
desire to serve others more than ourselves. That's a hard one to
achieve
for usually we go into these things tainted by the self-growth
syndrome.
However, if one tries to apply the discipline of the V.O.S. even
that
problem will


(1) be clearly exposed to the student inside their own nature so
they
can no longer dodge the issue and


(2) gradually begin to wane and weaken

In due time there will occur exactly what the VOICE says: the
World
Mother or Kundalini will rise to the Heart. Leave it alone, take
note,
but do nothing.

Keep on trying to intensify your love of humanity and desire to
grasp at
every opportunity of service that comes your way ---- and, keep
on with
the daily meditation. In due time it will do EXACTLY what the
VOICE
says: rise to the sixth. (the middle region, the place between
thine eyes...)

But with no service and no clarification of our motive; no
strengthening
of our will, HOW IS THIS GOING TO HAPPEN?? If by "cultish" you
mean
something that includes very, very, few, then I agree it is most
distinctly cultish. Most persons in this day and age have other
priorities for their "spare time," and the discipline outlined in
the
Voice will take all of that and then some!!!

The lower kills one morally, and quite often even physically, for
instead
of taking you to the sky in a whirlwind raised by your own
efforts, it
will take you to the center of the earth---loose and astray on
Lunar
Path.

If you are the Martin with as much background in theosophy as I
think you
have, then surely you must have seen and experienced pilgrims
with the
insane stare and gibberish of those who believe in the unseen and
abnormal but fail to transcend an intense sense of separateness
before
beginning to dabble in magic. Psychic Groups that I have known,
known
of, and read about are almost invariably centered by a Pilgrim
who
eventually CLAIMS TO BE GOD!! When some supposedly spiritual
activity is
based on SEX, and/or POWER, and/or MONEY---beware.

SERVICE and SELF-SACRIFICE will grow for us a clean set of eyes
not only
to see the flaw in the above, but the seeds of these in ourself.
No one
is without them. According to Patanjali to have "burnt the seed"
of such
is a far advanced step on the Path; or asThe VOICE puts it: "Ah,
great
is he who is the slayer of desire; still greater he in whom the
Self
Divine has slain the very knowledge of desire."

Far more interesting than Kundalini is the power of Kriyasakti.
Now
there's a Siddhi worth writing home about!!
have a nice day, and don't forget to smell the flowers,
