While there is no "real proof" of Kundalini , I do believe one should proceed with caution. I myself was recently researching Kundalini and thought it important to pass on a word of warning that I have gained from my own research.
If you do a search in Google for "dangers Kundalini energy" you will find many have claimed to have bad experiences.
The real dangers lie in forcing the Chakras open prematurely and in the incorrect sequence.
The so called hazards of kundalini often occur when the participant is not well grounded. For instance if you open your chakras prematurely, there may be bad side effects if you are able to "awaken the kundalini.
An ungrounded participant is one who may try to force the kundalini to awaken , but they themselves do not practice a harmonic lifestyle and are truly unprepared for the energy that will be released.
Kundalini is thought to be the "life energy" or "force" of all living things that is at the base of the spine. The belief and practice is grounded in Yogic traditions and in the Hindu religion, Kundalini is a goddess of energy. Also you can research "Kundalini Yoga" for more info.
"An individual named Gopi Krishna awakened his kundalini by doing unguided meditation on his crown chakra. His life after awakening was both blessed by ecstatic bliss and tormented by physical and mental discomfort. Eventually his experience stabilized. He wrote down his experiences in a recently re-released autobiography entitled ``Living with Kundalini.'' Gopi Krishna's autobiography appears to be an honest representation of his experiences but it is only one extreme datapoint in the panorama of experience on kundalini yoga. " excerpted from:
