No, I haven't written any more anywhere than I have written here. It all happened long before the Internet age after all. I have posted short warnings in another place or two.
Don't get me wrong. Depending on who you ask, Kundalini is the Indian concept closest to the Holy Spirit, or the Authentic Self, or the Divine Energy in creation, or the Divine Presence / Shechinah, something like that. It is certainly seen as a good thing, and there seems to be a vague agreement that all spiritual practice - including that of non-Indian religions - will raise a person's Kundalini.
What I am referring to is a set of practices specifically designed to release the Kundalini in a movement from the base of the spine up to the crown. If the person is receptive to this, it could rapidly escalate into an orgasm-like (and then some!) experience in which the normal consciousness is blown out in a white-out of the mind for an unpredictable amount of time. For many people however the only thing that happens is that the microcosmic circulation begins operating more strongly, which is surely harmless and a good thing. Unfortunately there is no known way to foretell who will just be more awake and alert at their job and who will spontaneously make strange uncontrollable movement at random times for the next several years. (No, I did not get that far, but it certainly felt like something was trying to take over my brain.)
Since increasing the level of Kundalini is pretty much the purpose of any yoga, there may be schools that use the name "Kundalini Yoga" even if they don't focus on those particular practices I have mentioned above.
