4.0 out of 5 stars Good lectures, October 9, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kundalini : The Mother Power (Paperback)
If your intention is to acquire good and reliable information about Kundalini, then this is a very good book. It answers questions like these very well: "Is Kundalini real or is it simply folklore from India?" "What is possible in the full Kundalini experience?" "What are the actual dangers of this phenomenon?" "What are some safe appproaches I could take that will lead me in the direction of Kundalini?"

This text was not written as an instructional book. It is just the transcription of a coherent, but short set of lectures delivered by Sri Chinmoy. It is extremely well organized, clear, and concise. The author speaks with the solid clarity and mature good sense that usually arises only from a direct, complete, and deep personal experience. My own guess or intuition is that Sri Chinmoy has a total experience and complete personal command of this entire phenomenon, beginning to end. It seems to me probable that the author is "the real deal" even though I don't know him. In that sense, I regard this book as much better and clearer information than I could get from another source.

My own preferences are not purely informational. I don't like to read a book and say, "Well, that's interesting" and set it down. I like to practice its techniques and get somewhere. While there are some good and useful exercises that a reader can do from this book, the whole subject does not really lend itself to the active or avid amateur reader. The author explains in all detail that an actual teacher is required in this area. We can pick up a tennis racquet and make a try without having any coach or teacher. My hope would be more or less the same with Kundalini. As it happens, Kundalini doesn't work that way. So, if you, too, are a true avid amateur you might be somewhat disappointed with the book (unless, of course, you can find a teacher).

5.0 out of 5 stars Authentic and probably the only authoritative source, March 2, 2002
By 
Clifford Goodrich (Pensacola, Florida USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Kundalini : The Mother Power (Paperback)
The concentration exercise alone will take the practitioner back through time...and if time travel is not an occult experience then I don't know what is. This book replaces Goraksha's book, the same yogi who brought us Hatha Yoga. Goraksha's writings were destroyed, and this book brings the occult topics back to light here in the west. The book emphasizes the path of the heart. I have tried the kundalini path, which I found to be too dangerous. Since the soul resides in the heart, the heart path places the soul in command. The soul can open a center, such as the third eye to peer into the future, or to open another chakra to help you with what you may be doing. This you'll find to be of Supreme importance if you want inner direction in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kundalini at it's best, unexployted!, January 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Kundalini : The Mother Power (Paperback)
After reading this book I felt like I had received all I needed to know about kundalini. It inspired me to the possibility's but also the realities or dangers of kundalini and put it all in balance with a sincere spiritual life. Most of the books you see on the shelves about kundalini seem to focus to much on what mystical powers one can achieve instead of seeing it in the context that it is, as the author clear relates, children playing with matches that are in danger of burning themselves and their higher spiritual possibilities and higher more worthy pursuits of love, purity, oneness, etc.
