Let me butt in with a related personal anecdote. In '77, before my governor training course in '78 my (then) wife and I were leading ATRs and 1-month SCI residence courses at the Soboba Academy. During that time I was having lots of kundalini during meditations and during nearly every meditation I would have bouts of popping up/hopping in place. When the first governors got back from Switzerland and were put in charge of the academy (and before all the non-governors were asked to leave because they no longer had status equal to the positions they had previously held), I talked with one of them about my experiences and asked him if what I was experiencing was anything like what went on during the flying siddhi. I was told that it was completely different -- more of a floating experience. Obviously not true.
