The notion that a normal mentally stable person could be driven mad by these practices is absurd. Citation needed.

The more extraordinary the claim, the stronger the evidence required. The claim that trying to learn Pranayama from an "experienced guru" can "actually make you mad" is an extraordinary claim indeed.
