5.0 out of 5 stars A jewel of a book!, January 23, 2000
By A Customer
I read Jewel in the Lotus several years ago, as I was begining my Tantric journey and had a lot of issues to address about the things that prevented me from feeling deep satisfaction in sexual union. It has helped me to realize sexuality as a gateway to intimacy and spiritual awareness. It is written like a text book with exercises at the end of each chapter. I found this format very useful as it allowed me to reflect and understand my concepts and beliefs about sex that don't serve me. So many of us are in some way limited in our ability to enjoy the pleasures of sex guiltlessly. Jewel in the Lotus gives a sacred yet scientific perspective that helps us make choices about our views on sex based on the facts, free of guilt.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Definitive Book on Tantra Kriya Yoga, July 19, 2000
By A Customer
Bodhi and Sunyata capture the essence of tantra in this easy-to-read workbook. Whether you're an advanced tantrika or a beginner doing preliminary research, you will gain great insights through reading this material and following the exercises. The book trains you in the fundamental techniques of tantra that grant you access to your spiritual and creative potential by using your sexual energy, and teaches you how to overcome obstacles you may run into on your way. It's a 'must read' for anyone on this path.

5.0 out of 5 stars kriya yoga tantra student, February 13, 2005
I'm currently a student of Kriya Yoga and this system, and found this book to be the building block of a solid pratice. I definetely recommend for the sincere student, I will not defend this work from humans as it was meant for human beings. I would say that you should research the authors and find out about them before buying this book if you have doubts. Simply put Sunyata Saraswati was a student of kriyananda(Chicago), Jaradan, and Satyananda(who taught him tantra). All of these teachers are from the Kriya Yoga tradition and traces back to Babaji. Bodhi Avinasha was a student of Sunyata and Osho, which should clarify her statis, I look forward to meeting her soon. Tantra is neither light or dark, it is both if any, which in reality is just a reflection of the goodness or evil in the practitioner. Never fear it and know that those which are meant for tantra will always find it, and those that aren't will gentle flow away from it. Namaste, with the love of mother(Shakti)!!!!!!!
