The Evolving Human is the compelling true story of one woman's struggle with a sudden, spontaneous "awakening of kundalini," the ancient Eastern term for a massive awakening of the powers of consciousness. From the surprising beginning, through the confusing, sometimes life-threatening events that unfold, to its profound conclusion, it gradually becomes clear that the awakening of consciousness is the entry into true spiritual development. What is unexpected, however, is the fact that we are all designed and built to evolve in this way and that the evolution of human beings into truly spiritual creatures is a far more extensive and life-changing process than anyone may have suspected.

A Bright Path Through the Forest of Kundalini Awakening,
By Cynthia Sue Larson "www.realityshifters.com" (San Francisco bay area, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: The Evolving Human (Paperback)
THE EVOLVING HUMAN is a fascinating account of Penny Kelly's kundalini awakening in 1979. I love the way Kelly shares the full breadth and depth of her highly personal experience, and the way she describes the many varied effects of kundalini (such as heightened sensory and extra-sensory awareness). In sequential fashion, Kelly tells the story of how she first entered the realm of "I AM" knowingness, and how she gradually began to feel and appreciate the way her kundalini experience sensitized her to the world. Little by little, Kelly found herself learning to use the great power and wisdom conferred by kundalini, even as her rational mind continued to search for answers and a deep understanding of what had happened to her. In addition to providing a personal record of kundalini awakening, THE EVOLVING HUMAN also has a series of appendixes which provide a description of the stages of human spiritual evolution, and some useful pointers for analyzing dreams, and improving one's telepathic skills.In one of the most fascinating parts of this book, Kelly describes how she lived through a period of time in which she felt herself living out two future paths along with her normal day-to-day life. One was much "safer" yet ultimately less satisfying, while the other was more true to living up to her full spiritual potential. She chose the path of fulfilling her potential, and I am certain that the world is a much better place for it! Kelly now lives at Lily Hill Farm in Michigan, where she teaches classes about developing intuition as she works in the gardens, barns, and kitchens. THE EVOLVING HUMAN began as a series of hand-outs for these classes, and due to popular demand grew into this beautiful book. My kundalini awakening took place in 1994, and many things Kelly describes in THE EVOLVING HUMAN remind me of experiences I've lived through. How wonderful it is to have this book at one's side, as reassurance that kundalini is a normal part of the process of human spiritual evolution. I give this book my highest recommendation for anyone who wishes to better understand how the kundalini experience transforms one's life.

This review is from: The Evolving Human (Paperback)
I really loved this book. It had two parts, basically.The first part was the story of Penny's kundalini awakening and the unravelling of her familiar routines as her psychic powers made it more difficult to handle day-to-day life. She worried that she was going psychotic. Thank goodness she chronicled this for us! She learned to respect her "symptoms" and now she shares this treasure of wisdom gained from her journey. The second part of the book she shares practical information we can use to navigate our lives with our own awakening consciousness. We can stay painfully rooted in old ways or we can evolve into a vaster, more compassionate and capable human. I wish I had the book with me to refer to, but I was so excited about it that I gave it to a friend to read. I will read anything and everything by Penny Kelly!

Hmm,
This review is from: The Evolving Human (Paperback)
Reading this book was a mixed experience for me.First what I liked: - the author did a great job to explain in common physical terms what kundalini is and even offers a mathematical explanation for non-dual awareness. I personnally like it when someone is able to link spiritual experience to scientific knowledge (the author is an engineer by background) - the author also did a great job in researching the kundalini experience among Christian mystics and what kind of terminology they use for it. - Then of course is the detailed descriptions of her varying experiences with kundalini and emerging super-natural abilities and the challenges they posed. Now what I didn't like: - The author describes her experiences along with her life-story and for me it was excruciating to read how dysfunctionally she behaves in her relationships and particularly towards her children. Lets summarize it like this: intellectual arrogance combined with exceedingly low emotional intelligence. Sorry, if that sounds harsh but I could hardly stomach it. - What's more - even after living with kundalini for many years and developing many supernatural powers she still mostly wishes to get rid of it. Many times I wanted to shake her and shout,'don't you realize you won the jack-pot?!? Use it for something useful, for heaven's sake!' All in all, I enjoyed reading this book because it read a bit like a detective story and there are many amazing and wonderful things happening it it.
