Book Description

June 1987
Many people have heard of the extraordinary phenomenon of kundalini awakening in which a persons body is swept by muscle spasms, indescribable sensations & sharp pains running throughout the body. He feels his body tearing within. Then suddenly he laughs & is overcome with bliss. When allowed to progress to completion, this process may culminate in deep psychological balance, inner strength, and emotional maturity.

Psychiatrist Lee Sanneli, cofounder of the Kundalini Clinic in San Francisco, differentiates this from a psychotic episode. Instead, it is a psychophysiological transformation, or 'rebirth' process as natural as physical birth.

CONTENTS: 1) Significance of Psychophysiological Transformation Today 2) The Kundalini Experience and Scientific Objectivity 3) Kundalini Experience - Classical Model 4) The Physio-Kundalini 5) Cross-Cultural Aspects of the Kundalini Experience 6) Case Histories 7) Self-Reports 8) Summary of Signs & Symptoms 9) Kundalini Cycle: Diagnosis and Therapy 10) Kundalini & Spiritual Life

5.0 out of 5 stars SO Grateful For This Book!, June 9, 2008
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Kundalini Experience: Psychosis or Transcendence (Paperback)
I acutally bought a copy of this book 10 years ago, read it, and thought it was a load of baloney. (And was secretly freaked out by the thought that it might NOT be baloney). Then, since I didn't want to consider the possibility, I got rid of the book. Now, 10 years later, a year after my OWN chakras started 'waking up'(and freaking the heck out of me!) I was directed to this book again and am now drinking it up, absolutely relieved that it exists, because the process it's describing is EXACTLY what's happening to me. (So much for my baloney theory!)It's too bad the book is out of print now, but kudos to all of the other sellers who are still making it available. Talk about the right book at the right time. If you suspect your energy is raising itself to a higher level (or you're not sure what's going on) check out this book. It may help a lot! It defintely has helped me. (And, in truth, the fact that I read it years before I went through this experience actually helped me to recognize it when it started happening to me).

5.0 out of 5 stars Lucid, readable, useful., October 11, 1999
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Kundalini Experience: Psychosis or Transcendence (Paperback)
I recommend this as an intro into the understanding of what Grof and Grof have dubbed "spiritual emergence," an increasingly common pattern of psychobiological activity often misdiagnosed as psychotic. -- Craig Chalquist, M.S., creator of the Thineownself self-exploration site.

This review is from: The Kundalini Experience: Psychosis or Transcendence (Paperback)
If you are working in the medical field - especially if have to diagnose - use this book to get an idea about a natural development which up to now occured very infrequently but which is going to be happing more often during the next years.
