There are well-known and well-attested causes of individuals who, in trance or semitrance bloom into great healers, clairvoyants, expounders of religious truths, prophesiers, oracles and the like. With voluntary cultivation there is no end to the possibilities of the metamorphosis. With better knowledge of the mechanism and discovery of safer methods to activate it, the producs of kundalini can bloom into progidies in every sphere of human knowledge, into geniuses of the highest order, into prophets, seers, healers, and clairvoyants of surpassing stature, beyond anything we can imagine at present. They will be the leaders in every field of knowledge and activity in the future world.
