Kuṇḍalinī Yoga: A Brief Study of Sir John Woodroffe's "The Serpent Power""At a time when all sorts of ideas -- introduced by those perhaps authorised professionally and academically though for the most part essentially unqualified as writers on such profound and sacred subjects as the Tantras and Kudalini yoga -- are poured steadily into and found to be flooding the book market, not only misleading the seekers and aspirants of Truth, but doing great harm as well to their physical and emotional health, the very timely arrival of Sri M.P. Pandit's Kundalini Yoga comes as a great relief to restrain and correct their misguided lines of study and practice. This book awakens the deeper sense and with true authority points out and discloses the hidden mysteries and the lines of practice concerning this great yoga. Sri Pandit's style vibrates the chords of the hearts as he proceeds with his subject, guiding his readers with suggestive hints through the necessary preperations to the acquisition of the qualities required in pursuit of this path."--Back cover. |
