Answer
During 'Sadhana' (practice), movements of Prana within the spine further to 'Pranothaana' (ascent of Prana) cause various sensations. This is natural in the course of Brahmacharya and Yoga. Kundalini awakening also causes similar experiences.
The 'Yuga' (period of cosmic cycle) has nothing to do with obtaining a Guru (master). It is neither tough to find a Guru in the Kali Yuga, nor was it easy to find a Guru in the other yuga-s. Time does not exist in reality and 'Atma Sadhana' (practice for self-realization) is independent of time. The Atman was never born, nor will it ever die. It is eternal and timeless. Hence the obtainment of a Guru connected with this Sadhana is not connected with time or to the cosmic cycle. It is honesty, commitment, sincerity of practice and the devotion one has for God that determines how soon the Guru comes. The Guru is the human form through whom God works.
Persevere correctly in the practice of Asana, Bandha, Nadi Shodhana and Pranayama as has been described in past answers twice a day without fail. Maintain Brahmacharya in thought, word and deed.
The Guru is sent by God and appears at the designated time. Till then, one has to persevere and strive in the right direction. There is always a Guru for every sincere Sadhaka (practitioner) guiding from behind even without one's knowledge. At the right time you will know who your Guru is.
