Kundalini, the Master and the Disciple: Report of a Search

I absolutely love this book and read it over and over again. It is the author's personal experience with Kundalini and how he was guided by a genuine old-school master. This book describes Kundalini Shakti in a detailed way. It is a point of view that is far more sophisticated than is commonly presented everywhere else. For example, he talks about Kundalini risings in Brahma, Chitrini, Sushumna, Lakshmi, Saraswati and Vajra Nadis. This information is virtually unknown everywhere. This is unfortunate because there are so many people who have risings in Saraswati and Vajra Nadis and the effects on them are profound and quite visible once you learn how to notice it. Another excellent book from the same tradition is Stories of Spiritual Transformation by Joan Harrigan which goes into even more detail about the variety of Kundalini risings and the experiences that go with them. Om.

This book is a man's autobiography of a very special time when he worked with a master to raise his kundalini. It's his story but also he imparts a lot of valuable information on kundalini. I very much enjoyed reading it.

Among all the Kundalini books I have read, this book is undoubtedly one of the most important ones. The author manages to combine perfectly in-depth theory with personal experience, making it a joyful and interesting reading. It becomes clear that Kundalini is a complex and ancient science, yet experienced by an increasing number of people and where among the processes exist as many parallels as differences. The various possibilities and stages of a Kundalini rising are well explained and were in some ways new to me. The science of Kundalini, once discovered and experienced, is in my opinion the key to any discussion about subtle phenomena and the subtle body. So it seems impossible to look at the Chakras or the functions of Prana without incorporating the knowledge of Kundalini. There are so many misconceptions about Kundalini nowadays, but with this book I felt that I had gained a glance into some trustworthy information based on the teachings of a real master.
