Customer Reviews

Very good

This book is very well researched, unpretentious and comprehensive. It is a very good starting point for everybody who wants to know about kundalini without jargon and mysticism. There is only one point I want to make. The author seems to almost recommand doing Western breathwork even though many many people have had terrible symptoms doing this. Breathwork can irrepairably damage your chakras and give you 'energy disease' as is it is called in Tibetan Buddhism. In this respect the author lacks discernment and I urgently advise everybody not to do things involving any form of forceful breath.

The one book to have on Kundalini

For those experiencing or interested in the process of Kundalini awakening, this is the one book to have. Dr. Greenwell writes clearly and intelligently about the broad range of experiences that can occur when this powerful energy awakens, including case histories of a variety of gurus, saints, and everyday people, and about the yogic view of energy and the chakras. She offers useful advice on how to handle the intense psychic and physical phenomena that is a frequent by-product of active Kundalini energy, reassurance that spiritual awakening indeed exists and you aren't crazy, and the importance of allowing the awakening to unfold once it has begun. I bought this book several years ago and continue to turn to it time and time again as questions about Kundalini arise.

tremendous resource

This is the one book to have, that explains the kundalini awakening. This is an absoulte must have book, for all those who practice yoga or meditation. It shows in detail how kundalini awakens and the symptoms that often come with it such as sweating, shaking, visions, changes in breathing and heart beat patterns and so forth. Many people who meditate long enough have experienced these and other symptoms and dont know what is going on. What is going on is that they have awakened kundalini and that this energy is working to clear out negative energy and transforming them to a higher and better state of being. The results of meditation can be terrifying if one is not informed of what is going on. This book does a superb job in explaining what is happening. Simply a great book.
