In the last few decades, yoga has helped millions of people to improve their concepts of themselves. Yoga realises that man is not only the mind, he is body as well. Yoga has been designed in a such a way that it can complete the process of evolution of the personality in every possible direction. Kundalini yoga is a part of the tantric tradition. Even though you may have already been introduced to yoga, it is necessary to know something about tantra also. Since the dawn of creation, the tantrics and yogis have realised that in this physical body there is a potential force. It is not psychological or transcendental; it is a dynamic potential force in the material body, and it is called Kundalini. This Kundalini is the greatest discovery of tantra and yoga. Scientists have begun to look into this, and a summary of the latest scientific experiments is included in this book.

Commentary: This book is a very good resource of various practices that can be performed to achive self emancipation. However, every is WARNED at the very beginning of the book that: 1. Finding a GURU before attempting these practices in CRITICAL. I would suggest that if someone wants to adopt these practices, they better take up a course in a Yoga ashram such as Bihar Munger School from which this book came. --Dayal Dec 27, 2012 This book is a whole research of Swami Satyananda, who himself seems to be an enlightened. His true research works, his own opinion and his own knowledge of Kundalini in deep, he has elaborated in this book. Must have this if you really are interested in knowing what Kundalini powers are. --Garvit Kumar Arora Oct 11, 2013
