hmmm..... i find it very worrying - not that there is people like yourself who 
are willing to test these things - no harm in that at all... 
 
.... i find it very very worrying that there are people who say they possess 
[ granted may not have any ability ]  such power, and then seem to 
think that it's some party trick for amusing the ladies or something..... 
 
i'd personally steer clear of such people... as far as letting them at my being 
is concerned....

nice of him ;-) .... did he say what it was you weren't ready for, or what 
it was that you were ready for ???

can you describe that in more detail....

[ cough ] 
 
i think if one is going to ever act in such a way, that i always remember certain things: 
 
thelema : love under will. 
wicca: harm thou none. 
timothy leary: never attempt to alter someone elses conciousness without their consent.

be sceptical around psychic villains is what i feel.

have you tried relaxing very hard....?   :-)

imho: 
i could well have been kundalini, and it could equally well have been kundalini 
trying to protect you from whatever this person may have done. 
 
i don't think it should have been done... at least without a lot more time, and 
knowledge supporting your self and mind before going so blindly into something 
which ( in my own experience )... can leave one shattered like a ship-wreck 
victim lying on a beach... dry, thirsty, empty... weak.... just kept alive by the 
hope taht someone will see the fire burning on the beach..... 
 
that doesn't mean to say it has been a harming experience, i would expect 
from what you have said that it was not... 
 
> Furthermore, he makes money out of awakenings (and kundalini healing as 
> he puts it) and wants me to help him out in my country. By all means, 
> he's a very nice guy, but considering this concerns powers beyond us all, 
 
who said this is power beyond us all... ?? 
 
was it not Ghopi Krisha that said on Kundalini that "this is a power for everyone....." 
 
> is making money out of it the right thing to do? Would it be dangerous

we all need to make a living, so that in itself is not harmful. 
 
don't know with regard to the yoga, meditation etc.... it depends where 'you' 
are i suppose.... to some it is nessecary for them to release stuff, to some 
it is less a nessecity.... try it... and find out.... it's probably a better way if 
you already feel that direct kundalini is too deep... for the moment....

have you asked him?

hopefully that does not matter....
