5.0 out of 5 stars What it Is About, December 2, 2002

ganga karmokar (Seattle Wa or Rishikesh India) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kundalini from Hell to Heaven (Spiral-bound)

Namaste Dear One -

i am the author of the book and it is a bit different in that it is not a book that shows how to start the kundalini and activate it, but rather what to do once you are in the midst of an awakening... it also shows health professionals what to look for in diagnosing kundalini versus any of the other numerous catagories and labels that get acquired... this book does not show chakras and pathways but tells how kundalini works with consciousness and how to navigate the experience successfully... it is ALSO great for others that are one the path to Liberation in this lifetime by means of Self Enquiry...

Love to All who find this book... shanti shant Maha Shanti OM...g.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have for Anyone who Meditates or has Kundalini Rising, June 10, 2009

This review is from: Kundalini - From Hell to Heaven (Paperback)

Namaste, readers. (Peace)

The other five star reviewers say it very well. I have just finished buying and reading this book this June, 2009. I can only add that this is the most important book I have read in the last 30 years because I find myself in the midst of major Kundalini symtoms right now.

I have been meditating since the early 1970's. No yoga or exercises. Just meditating. In those days not much was written and understood about Kundalini. I am blessed to have found this book and its author Ganga Karmokar, also known as Swami-G at this point in my life. I did not know 99 per cent of this book, but without a doubt she knows. Many of the things she has written have happened to me since. Kundalini keeps expressing itself (sometimes daily) over a long period of time.

Kundalini experiences can be very frightening to the experiencer who has little or no prior knowledge of the subject because the unknown scares. With the help of this book I can now understand more of what is happening to me and where I am going. I know I will re-read this book many times. It is one of the few books I would want on a deserted island with me. Yes, it is truly that important to me.

This book also explains what a guru is and the importance of finding one who has completed the whole journey as there are so many trappings of the ego with the journey.

I am also thankful the book has a dictionary at the end as I am a Westerner, a Texan, in fact. There are a few Eastern words that I had to look up several times but the book is for All. The Eastern words used are commonly used in other books. The book is very easy to read and very concise. No extraneous verbosity here. No life story of the author, etc. She gets right down to business and stays on the subject matter!

To some it may seem that I am going overboard with this review but it is a lifesaver for me. This book is priceless to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kali's Review, January 1, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Kundalini from Hell to Heaven (Spiral-bound)

Ganga Karmokar's book From Hell to Heaven is an invaluable book for anyone on a spirtual path, but without doubt a crucial read and continual guide for one actually going through a Kundalini Awakening.

I am in the midst of an Awakening and have kept the book at my side continually. It has become my working manual, one in which I can make notes and continue to reread as the process unfolds.
Everytime I reread passages I find that I come to a deeper and even richer understanding of this sacred path. It is a book that has a positive and energetic life flow to it, and seems to be able to address the question or need of the moment.

The book comprehensively describes what the process is, and the tools and directions for forward movement and balance through the process. It also has Question and Answer sections with Ganga answering myriads of relevant questions that have answered many of my own questions along the way.

I have the great fortune of knowing Ganga personally and being her student. She enabled me to understand what was happening to me, and was tireless in her guidance and continues to be as well as her book. She is totally dedicated to helping others through this process as well as on other spiritual paths. It is important for one to have the steering guidance of one who has successfully forged through this amazing and difficult process to Self-Realization such as Ganga Karmokar has!

Hopefully, this book will be widely read and used not only by those seeking spiritual guidance and growth, but also by Health Care professionals of which I am one,(psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, and general practicioners, etc.)who are called upon as helpers by individuals going through Spiritual Transformation. In many cases, these clients can be in spiritual crisis, and this book is a Life-Saver. From Hell to Heaven is a ground-breaking and vitally important book, offering vast experiential knowledge and guidance, love, and sacred motivation to anyone seeking spiritual growth, but especially to those in the process of an Awakening and to those who are assisting them through it. Thank you Ganga!!
