i asked this question with the suspicion that one of the things cobra charming 
was invented to symbolize was the act of raising the kundalini from the sacral 
to the brow chakra; and, the only interpretations i've gotten thus far have 
supported this interpretation. 

i would still, however, be interested in finding any modern books or ancient 
religious manuscripts that specifically associate the two and/or present 
different interpretations.
