We all have within us a latent energy waiting to transform our lives. Known as “kundalini,” this legendary power is believed to catalyze spiritual evolution. But is kundalini real? And if so, how can we engage this energy to awaken our consciousness?
For centuries, the secrets of kundalini have been guarded by masters and buried in esoteric texts around the globe. But in this book, the authors bring together 24 illuminating essays on different aspects of the kundalini, as experienced by some of today’s most prominent voices to demystify this mysterious phenomenon. From personal accounts and yogic practices, to brain research and historical perspectives, this compelling anthology weaves together both the mystical and practical perspectives on the rising of kundalini energy to help support our own spiritual discovery.
