“Personal experience, modern research, clinical observations and traditional literature are included in this comprehensive reader.”–Brain/Mind Bulletin
“White’s book should go far to inform the public and interest future researchers in the kundalini phenomenon....The book will take you squarely into the center of the debate because it contains all the material you need to know and none that will waste your time.”–Fate
“A carefully orchestrated and comprehensive survey of the insufficiently understood and highly controversial question of kundalini...a much needed contribution to the kundalini literature.” –Human Dimensions Newsletter
“The most comprehensive anthology available
on a subject too vital to be ignored and too essential to be misunderstood....This
book opens the window of consciousness.”–Journal of the Academy of Religion
and
Psychical Research
The search for a higher state of consciousness takes many forms: eastern religions, meditation, mysticism, and transpersonal psychology, to name a few. But one common theme unites these seemingly diverse approaches to spirituality–kundalini, a Sanskrit word that refers to our potential to reach a higher spiritual plane. Through kundalini yoga our vital life force is channeled up through the spine and concentrated in the brain, resulting in personal transformation and enlightenment.
Here are the most authentic and insightful writings on every aspect
of this fascinating phenomenon including:
• Traditional views of kundalini
• Personal accounts of the
kundalini experience
• Scientific explorations
in kundalini research
• Advice for seekers
This volume includes the writings of Gopi Krishna, Swami Rama, Yogi
Bhajan, Christopher Hills, Lee Sannella, and Ken Wilbur, among others.
The views of these respected authorities provide the most reliable information
on kundalini and valuable guidance for getting in touch with your spiritual
self.
