Dear Linda,
 
Well, you seem to know a great deal about what Kundalini *is*!  :))  Why  
don't you enlighten us!  :))
 
I'm sorry you are feeling tired.
 
For an interesting discussion regarding CW Leadbeater's contributions on  
making some of these terms accessible to Westerners as well as Easterners,  
see The Inner Life of Krishnamurti by Aryel Sanat.  "Significantly, CWL  
originated a whole genre of literature on the subtle energy patterns in the  
human aura, the chakras, and kundalini.  Because of the descriptive literary  
style in which he wrote about these formerly arcane subjects, he made it very  
easy for others to subsequently write or speak about them...
 
From John White Kundalini, Evolution, and Enlightenment, p. 21
 
"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 (Chinese), 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.  Kundalini, often referred to as the "serpent power"  
because it is symbolized by a coiled snake, can be concentrated and channeled  
through the spine into the brain--a process likewise not yet identified by  
modern scientists.  The systematized process for accomplishing this upward  
flowing of energy is known as kundalini yoga."

You seem to have a very narrow, individual, definition of Kundalini.  
 
Love, Hillary
