I find the Bihar School of Yoga books excellent。 What is the kundalini。how to activate the kundalini。 Simply explained。the coordination of the breathing（Prana） with the chakras and the mind。 Practise 30 minutes a day。 Activate your endocrine system which is also the chakras。 For me the Kriya Yoga book was also useful to understand the Kundalini。

The book gives a detailed account of each chakra and what worlds it will open for saadhak/yogi which goes on a quest to open through intense sadhana（practice）。 The details on Ajna ， Anahata， Manipura ， Swadhisthana， Mooladhara are beyond I have read or understood anywhere。 Must read for every Yogi who has experienced the benefits of Pranayam （Breathing exercises）。 This book will open the doorway for the things beyond your perception 'if you are ready for it'。 The book gives a detailed account of each chakra and what worlds it will open for saadhak/yogi which goes on a quest to open through intense sadhana（practice）。 The details on Ajna ， Anahata， Manipura ， Swadhisthana， Mooladhara are beyond I have read or understood anywhere。 Must read for every Yogi who has experienced the benefits of Pranayam （Breathing exercises）。 This book will open the doorway for the things beyond your perception 'if you are ready for it'。 。。。more

Excellent exposition of this much mis-understood and mis-informed subject matter。Clear instructions and background information with great measure and even headed commentary。 A little self indulgent in the last section but not enough to detract from the remainder。 I would recommend this for anyone with a serious interest in the subject as a beginner yogi， or just interested。NOTE: as other reviewers have stated， there are a few outdated ideas in here relating to body health and systems but they ar Excellent exposition of this much mis-understood and mis-informed subject matter。Clear instructions and background information with great measure and even headed commentary。 A little self indulgent in the last section but not enough to detract from the remainder。 I would recommend this for anyone with a serious interest in the subject as a beginner yogi， or just interested。NOTE: as other reviewers have stated， there are a few outdated ideas in here relating to body health and systems but they are few and can be counted on one hand。 。。。more

I don't think I would recommend this book to anyone。 It was timed well for me in being able to absorb more information about the chakras and having a curiosity about kundalini。 Most of the book is filled with practices and science， a pretty hard read。 I don't think I would recommend this book to anyone。 It was timed well for me in being able to absorb more information about the chakras and having a curiosity about kundalini。 Most of the book is filled with practices and science， a pretty hard read。 。。。more

A Great book with some practices and details about the Sadhana。 A Must to read for who are practicing and curious to know about the details。

One of the best books to understand chakras and kundalini energy

I would recommend this as mandatory reading for any serious aspirant of kriya yoga。 It provides detailed practical guidance in addition to explaining the esoteric symbology and philosophy of the tantric path。

I started yoga about seven months ago and this book helped me understand some things that were going on with my body。 I'm still not ready for many of the practices here， but explanations were clear and detailed enough to give a a foundation on which to build。 I started yoga about seven months ago and this book helped me understand some things that were going on with my body。 I'm still not ready for many of the practices here， but explanations were clear and detailed enough to give a a foundation on which to build。 。。。more

This is one of the best books on practical Dakshina Tantra I've got in touch with aiming for the development of a healthy sense of unit between the physical body， the subtle body （emotions） and the mind as a bridge between our individual sense of consciousness and the Universe。Swami Satyananda Saraswati first explains what is the so-called kundalini， as the driving energy that creates the human experience and how we can perceive it inside our body as the dormant force that as soon as awakened ca This is one of the best books on practical Dakshina Tantra I've got in touch with aiming for the development of a healthy sense of unit between the physical body， the subtle body （emotions） and the mind as a bridge between our individual sense of consciousness and the Universe。Swami Satyananda Saraswati first explains what is the so-called kundalini， as the driving energy that creates the human experience and how we can perceive it inside our body as the dormant force that as soon as awakened can lead us to our own fulfillment and cosmic understanding。Subsequently， he approaches related topics such as the pros and cons regarding the practice of Kundalini Tantra as a way to help us reach this goal， mentioning the need for the tantric yogi to become a vegetarian and avoid dangerous substances and behaviors prior to his engagement within this realm of activity， among other prescriptions。The book is divided in four parts: the first one regards the philosophy of Tantra and the different ways to understand it， focusing on the requirements for one to step upon it; the second part illustrates the mechanisms of the chakras， exercises for their activation and all the symbolic aspects that might help us get in touch with our psychophysiological functioning; the third part explores twenty kriya practices that should only be approached whenever the yogi feels that his body has been properly purified; and the last part brings a discussion with the swamis from the Bihar School of Yoga， aiming to elucidate doubts about the kundalini， the nadis， psychosis， diseases， awareness etc。Obviously， this book should only be held as a guide by experienced yogis or practitioners of Tantra， otherwise one should ask for the guidance of a guru or a master to start engaging on what it points out， if not reasonably attend a school of Yoga。 But， in a general way， I can say that this book is very accurate about what it explores， so if you have the maturity and responsibility to dig it， you'll find a special treasure that is going to make you improve your practice and bring a profound sense of connection with patience and effort。 。。。more

Warning- this book makes many assertions that are patently wrong and scientifically illiterate。 But take them as metaphors， the topic is quite wonderful， artful and very compelling。Kundalini Tantra provides a succinct and apt description of human consciousness and meditative practices leading to self-inquiry and greater self-awareness -- ultimately leading to profound realizations of the nature of the mind， and the formation of conscious thought。If you're interested in inquiring into the nature Warning- this book makes many assertions that are patently wrong and scientifically illiterate。 But take them as metaphors， the topic is quite wonderful， artful and very compelling。Kundalini Tantra provides a succinct and apt description of human consciousness and meditative practices leading to self-inquiry and greater self-awareness -- ultimately leading to profound realizations of the nature of the mind， and the formation of conscious thought。If you're interested in inquiring into the nature of thought， where and how thoughts arise， and how to experience the profound state of consciousness when the mind is aware of its own illusions （illusions of self， illusions of duality， etc）; or even to learn about various meditation techniques to quiet the mind and relax -- then you'll love this book。Unfortunately， the author seemed lost in his own metaphors， asserting beliefs as fact and claiming that "modern science" backs up his assertions （it doesn't， but that doesn't matter）。 In a way， I wish his claims were scientifically true， that a systematic and procedural approach would evolve a persons mind-- e。g。， sit in the Siddhasana pose and repeat 30 "anahata" mantras and you'll have a balanced world view and exude loving kindness， etc-- we'd see a lot more enlightened people in the world if all one had to do was follow mechanical steps。 Instead， he suppresses criticism of the abundant contradictions， and makes claims of psychic powers that have absolutely nothing to do with the nature of human consciousness， the cessation of suffering， or any of the topics described。I wouldn't have minded these claims， even the silly psychic ones; but the author insisted on bringing in science。。。 scientific reasoning does not make authoritarian assertions， it's merely a way to embrace uncertainty in the face of contradictory beliefs and find coherence （often through reproducible experiments）。But this book got me thinking: consider the Scientific Revolution， we have as our starting point in modern science a very cruel and strict Judeo-Christian mythology-- a dogmatic religious worldview with totalitarian themes that fortunately has been widely discredited by the very science that it produced。Consider that modern medical science got it's start in mythologies that described the body as evil and potentially filled with demons。 Now imagine a medical science that got its start not with demons， sin， and blood letting- but of the mythology of Kundalini Tantra。Perhaps a strange twist of luck that the scientific revolution arose from totalitarian Judeo-Christian views; how wonderful it might have been to have a scientific revolution arise from the mythologies of Kundalini Tantra。 Science （being science） would quickly disavow the pre-scientific claims， but imagine the ease of research into areas considered taboo or outright ignored （or banned） through the history of western science; consider that we are only now uncovering the physiology of the human mind and the nature of conscious thought; and that we still struggle researching topics concerning sexuality and reproduction。 A proper science from a cultural start of Kundalini Tantra， I imagine， would be quite incredible。 。。。more

Mais um episódio de Tudo que você sempre quis saber sobre a vida。。。 Esse livro facilmente poderia ser considerado como bíblia do Tantra， não dá pra ser mais completo no assunto do que foi colocado num âmbito geral aqui。Plus: Essencial para aqueles que estão abrindo chacras ou despertando a kundalini e precisam se tranquilizar quanto a possíveis crises psicóticas ou de esquizofrenia。 Não se preocupem， os sintomas são normais。

A well rounded intro to kundalini。 The book gives a basic theoretical explanation of kundalini and then introduces practices in a straightforward and accessible way。 My main critique is that it assigns importance fairly thinly- every chakra is the most important， so the reader is easily drawn into trying to focus on everything at once。 Thankfully， in practice， the program designates a clear focus for each time period and exercise。This book is best for those actually looking to begin practicing， A well rounded intro to kundalini。 The book gives a basic theoretical explanation of kundalini and then introduces practices in a straightforward and accessible way。 My main critique is that it assigns importance fairly thinly- every chakra is the most important， so the reader is easily drawn into trying to focus on everything at once。 Thankfully， in practice， the program designates a clear focus for each time period and exercise。This book is best for those actually looking to begin practicing， and there are others better for gaining scholarly understanding of kundalini。 。。。more

An amazing book that not only speaks of the depths of Tantra but speaks to our western need to prove these special yogic techniques

dense with vivid details of comprehensible experience-driven descriptions of a system of energy and thought that is necessary to advance the West into a sustainable way of life， mindful， self-aware， and constructive rather than the current self-destructive policies。
