Some teachers say that you should go through pain to experience kundalini.   
Their reasoning is it is only through pain that one can understand fear and  
deal with it.
 
I AM NOT ONE OF THEM.  I say when one has been through pain & fear you do  
not inflict it on others.  you make it easy as possible to share what is  
beyond, looking at your mistakes, making sure they are not repeated on  
others.  Patanjali Y.S.2.16. - The pain which is yet to come can and is to  
be avoided.  Gheranda Samhita(a major tantric work)Lesson 5.31. - He should  
avoid anything giving pain to the body.
 
No sacred texts on tantra / yoga advocate pain.  Prove me wrong, quote a  
text & verse concerned that does.  Otherwise practise more & preach less!
 
If you wish to go through pain you are welcome to do so.  Its not my  
problem.
 
Psyche = false mind, intelligence, ego = physical body.
 
Have a painless Christmas,you masochists out there!
