I have had the experience of the breath and prana going down the central vein and centering in muladhara, and that was the greatest ecstasy I have ever experienced. I realised at that time that the kundalini had then to rise as here written. I never progressed further.. struggling with it

[@LakshmanjooAcademy]

Swamiji says it may take many attempts before it becomes stable. Keep trying.
