Dear Anne Elizabeth,
 
They are all the same energies IMO and in the opinion of many authors.  For  
instance I was just finishing John Selby's *Kundalini Awakening* and came by  
the following:  "Sometimes in Western culture, the awakening of the seventh  
chakra is called 'receiving Christ consciousness.'"
 
Lee Sannella in his *Kundalini Experience* writes:The experience of light can  
be called a universal constant of spiritual or mystical experiencing.  It is  
also associated with the ascent of the kundalini power into the crown  
center...
 
From *The common Experience, Signposts on the Path to Enlightenment* by J.M.  
Cohen & J-F. Phipps:  The enlightened are bathed in light.  Likewise they  
irradiate light, which is represented by the aura that surrounds the heads of  
saints and bodhisattvas in Christian and Buddhist art.
 
John White in his introduction to Kundalin Evolution and Enlightenment writes:
 
What exactly is kundalini?... 
In general, the question can be answered briefly like this.  Kundalini is the  
personal aspect of the universal life force named prana by the yogic  
tradition.  This primal cosmic energy is akin, if not identical, to ch'i  
(Chines), ki (Japanese), the Holy Spirit, and various other terms from  
cultures that identify a life force that is the source of all vital activity.  
 Prana has not yet been identified by modern science, but ancient wisdom  
maintains that it is the means for raising human awareness to a higher form  
of perception, variously called illumination, enlightenment, cosmic  
consciousness, samadhi.  
 
I'm sorry that Colette's response to you didn't seem to get posted...
 
Your neighbors sound particularly mean spirited, close minded and ignorant.   
If they are harassing you you might consider telling them that harassment is  
unchristian and may even be illegal.  
 
[Is ther goal to deplete my sexual energy so that I have no god-given control  
over my own chakras. I would like some light to be given to me on this as it  
is dibilitating and  spiritually devastating to me.]
 
No one can take away your energy!  I would suggest you simply stay away from  
them as much as possible.  Tell them you are *already* saved, thank you!  
 
Love, Hillary
