Many esoteric traditions hold that kundalini awakening is impossible for the sexually active male, or for the menstruating female, because of “energy loss” resulting from ejaculation or menstruation. Is there any truth behind this, or are these merely cultural taboos resulting from sexual guilt and repression? — Here is what KAP instructor Tao Semko has to say, based on the practice and experiences of hundreds of KAP Practitioners:

KAP instructor Tao Semko, from a 2010 online Q&A on kundalini…
The lower extent of the Thrusting Vessel, also known as the Penetrating Vessel, or Chong Mai (image) in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, begins as the primary pathway for the electrical signals created during internal alchemy practices or kundalini practices. In many spontaneous kundalini risings, kundalini follows the thrusting vessel to its apex, and then subsides, creating a brief but powerful experience with little permanent change in consciousness. However, steady practitioners of internal alchemy or kundalini meditation gradually awaken a more straight, direct, vertical pathway, which sanskrit calls Sushumna Nadi (image), and Chinese internal martial artists and alchemical practitioners refer to as the Taiji Pole (image), the true vertical axis of the body.
It is this “adjusted” penetrating vessel / pathway of electrical activity in the body direct from bottom to top, using both spinal nerves and vagus nerves, that allows for the opening of feelings of enormous compassion, love, and connection from the heart/thymus, as well as feelings of oneness and cosmic consciousness from the core areas of the brain. This rewired neural/endocrine network is achieved and strengthened through movement of breath and placement of sensory awareness along its length, with intentional amplification of sensation and emotion.
The continued processes and realizations in alchemical and esoteric yoga traditions after the initial upward re-wiring of this pathway for kundalini may follow more curvilinear, feminine pathways back down and around the body as those “cosmic” experiences are reintegrated with more human and mundane experiences, or may follow the same straight pathway back downward.
KAP is a simplified method that embraces the biological changes that occur throughout kundalini’s evolution in the body, and facilitates them for a faster, smoother, safer, change. It makes use of 5 prerequisites for a permanent kundalini awakening.
New sessions of our acclaimed KAP Level One online classes are available starting in September, with KAP Director Santiago Dobles, and KAP instructor Paul Densmore. Level One contains all the necessary practices for a safe, rapid, permanent kundalini awakening. Level Two classes also begin in September, with KAP instructor Tao Semko, and KAP Director Santiago Dobles. These teach more precise and more amplified ways of using the bodies systems, and integrating internal and external experiences of energy and consciousness, using the materials taught in level one as a foundation.
Combined KAP1&2 intensive workshops will be taught by Santiago Dobles in Miami in November, and by Tao Semko and Paul Densmore in New Orleans in January.
KAP Instructor Tao Semko discusses the place of the vagus nerve in kundalini physiology and practice, along with later alchemical stages in kundalini awakening, and the correspondences between Indian and Chinese systems, including brief summaries of the following:
Why it’s not enough to simply take kundalini along the spine:

Answers to the following questions:
From Wales, UK:
“For quite a long time, I didn’t realise that what I was experiencing was Kundalini. This is because it is usually described as feeling like an electric shock or fiery current running up the back. Later I realized that there are people that experience the physical aspect of Kundalini in a similar way to me, ie more like a fountain of champagne bubbles moving in waves throughout the body. Do you know why there is this difference?”
From Nova Scotia, Canada:
“Tao, When I first started practicing KAP I had a lot of very blissful experiences. It was very obvious that something powerful was happening in my body. now when I meditate, it doesn’t feel like the incredible earth shattering progress I was experiencing at first. I’ve also developed some tension or pressure in my Xiphoid process. does this mean the energy is blocked? I also have some other more general questions… what exactly does increased intra-abdominal pressure mean? is it possible to have kundalini active in certain chakras but not others? what is the experiential difference between a kundalini awakening and a kundalini rising? Thank you very much Tao”
From New York, USA:
“Question for the Q&A: Hi Tao, I am an avid “Astral Projector/Out of Body” practitioner. It has been said by some that the most conductive state of concsiousness to be in in order to experience an “out of body experience” is in a trance or from a position of “mind awake/body asleep”. I’m wondering if Kundalini is experienced in the same state or is Kundalini something that is capable of being experienced outside of a meditative state, in a layer of awareness closer to a waking state? Also, if you have time for a second question: If Kundalini is experienced in a trance state, which can be considered by some to have a high degree of psychological plasticity at times,In your experience do you think of Kundalini as a sentient being or is it a phenomenon created by the seeker, over time, in a state of consciousness that has a high degree of psychological plasticity?”
From Oulu, Finland:
“Hi Tao, these are some of the questions that I’ve been thinking about lately:
1. How big a role does diet play in spiritual (kundalini) cultivation? What kind of diets boost progress and what kind of diets hinder it?
2. Is it possible to awaken kundalini just by doing lots of normal concentration meditation on e.g. the breath?
3. How is kundalini related to the four jhanas of buddhism?”
Regrettably, the recording ended abruptly during the answer to question 1 from Finland., and the answers to 2 and 3 were thus cut off… –Tao Semko
