Book Description

January 2005
Kundalini is the coiled up,dormant,cosmic power that underlies all organic and inorganic matter within us and any thesis that deals with it can avoid becoming too abstract,only with great difficulty.But within the pages of the book,the theory that undelies this cosmic power has been analysed to it's thinnest filaments,and practical methods have been suggested to awaken this great prisitne force in individuals.It explains the theory and illustrates the practice of Kundalini Yoga.

This book will serve as a kindly light to the seeker and leads the seekr through the dark alleys of an as yet unexplored branch of Yogic exercises,while to the layman it contains a wealth of new infromation which is boud to be a valuable addition to his knowledge of Yogic culture.

The book like many of Swamiji's works has run into twelve reprints since it was first published.

About the Author

No saint or sage in the history of the world has such a prolific literary output to his credit,in addition to the building up of a world-wide organization.Even dynamic political leaders have confessed often that the exigencies of administration keep them away from literary pursuits.It is only Swami Sivananda,who has been able to keep a continuous flow of spiritual literature,in spite of being busily engaged in the administration of the Divine Life Society.

The secret,according to him,lies in being able to switch his mind on,at will,from one task to another,without the least difficulty and with great advantage.

Sri Swami Sivananda’s writings are characteristic in being free from the rigid technical nomenclature and the austere logic ususlaly met with in texts dealing with super-mundane matters and in thus being acfessible teven to the most non-intellectual type of aspirants.

A medico by profession,Swami Sivananda moved towards spirituality and established the Sivananda Asram at Rishikesh in the year 1934.

His lucid teachings and writings atracted many and the Ashram became one of the most revered spirituality centeres.

Many of his disciples established their Ashrams decvoting themselves to the propogation of the teachings of their master.

One such,Swami Satyananda Saraswati,established the internationally famous Bihar School of Yoga and produced many master peices on the subject like asana Pranayama Mudra Bandha and other titles,best sellers on amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Kundalini Yoga, February 9, 2010
This review is from: Kundalini Yoga (Paperback)
I know there is a lot of stuff out there about kundalini so it is very easy to get confused by all the different disinformation.

This book is the real deal unlike many teachers and books out there with unwary confused followers.
Master Sivananda doesn't small talk or mince words but gets right to the point. You will learn some valuable tools for kundalini, meditation, pranayama and yoga in this very perfect book.

AGLA (Acción Gnóstica Libertadora de Amerindia, "Liberating Gnostic Action of Amerindia") was a group that was founded that included Samael Aun Weor and Sivananda. Between the two of them you can gather the highest teaching available for Kundalini.

The Teachings here are very pure and legitimate and so are very hard to hear with an ego..

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book if you are in yoga teacher training!, August 28, 2011

This review is from: Kundalini Yoga (Paperback)
This is an old book but it explains a lot. It reads like a discourse on the yoga sutras by Patanjali.

Pros: It explained a lot more than my teacher did in yoga teacher training. It explains well the different types of yoga as well as the eight "arms" of yoga, and the chakras. It includes a few asanas and some photos of asanas. It suggests a proper sattvic diet and also information on creating a yogic lifestyle. There are also some specific pranayama exercises.

Cons: He uses a lot, I mean a lot, of Sanskrit terms in his writing. Most are in the glossary in the back, some are not. If you are an absolute beginner to yogic philosophy you may find it tough going on this account. If you have some background you will appreciate all the straight forward information. I bought this book because I wanted to know more about Kundalini specifically, and funny, but that's the one thing it seems sort of weak on. This book reads more as an overview on YOGA than it does a book on KUNDALINI. Swami Sivananda does not even mention Yogi Bhajan who seems to be the main guy to bring kundalini style yoga to the US. If you are used to the Yogi Bhajan style ("may the long time sun" etc.) you may be surprised that Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo was not mentioned in this book
