Dear Rene,
The subject of Prana vs Kundalini is an interesting one. I just put up an
old thread on the subject at the Kundalini-gateway site in the list topics
section.
http://www.kundalini-gateway.org/threads/th_prana.html
I personally like Swami Shivom Tirth's opinion stated by Kurt:
"that prana and kundalini are absolutely equivalent and that it is not
meaningful in any way to describe a difference between kundalini rising and prana
rising. When posed with question as to how to distinguish between pleasant
sensations that show some pranic-activity in the spine and the much more powerful
experience Swami Shivom Tirth said that the difference is not in the nature of
the activity but in the consciousness that observes it. If the consciousness
that experiences the pranic activity is seated within the spine (or more
correctly, the central channel, known as the sushumna), then the experience is felt
much more powerfully."
Love, Hillary
