Lbrp, Middle Pillar, And Kundalini Options

I recently on the advice of this site purchased a copy of MODERN MAGICK: Eleven Lessons on the High Magickal Arts.

I have begun practicing the LBRP and found it quite useful, leaving me with powerful shielding, a banished and clean atmposphere, and also a highly charged magickal / spiritual energy.

I then moved on to the Middle Pillar Ritual which as it stated in the text is quite similair to Eastern practices having to do with the chakra and kundalini, which i have been practicing for years now.

I was wondering, is there any particular reason / difference in experience that i should know about when practicing these rituals or would it perhaps better to continue with my chakra / kundalini work as a "MIddle Pillar" sort of ritual since i already know the technique.

Overall, the style of Ceremonial Magick is more complicated then i'm used to, but i think that having set up my altar, gotten some rudimentary tools, and begun practicing that aspects of it will be quite useful to add to my repitoire of other magickal styles.

Any comments, thoughts, advice, as i continue my practice?
(See my entry in the profile piece if you wish more background on the type of magick i am used to performing.)

Do not confuse the two practises! Kundalini tends to involve inward seeking and the awakening of the fire serpent. The Middle Pillar does not and is used to fortify the energy body for work from without. Krells two cents are worth listening to. Also, you should study under a master when working with the Kundalini. There used to be a hotline for people who got stuck in the Kundalini exercises...which can be strong enough to do one in. A cautionary note...believe it or don't. Good Luck! But...practise them seperately! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/i_triangle.gif)
