  • AGHORA II - KUNDALINI
    by Robert Svoboda
    1994, Rupa & Co. Book II of Svoboda's AGHORA trilogy, 319 pages.


    This book is Indian mythology demystified. It explains how the great Epics of India - Ramayana and Mahabharata are actually metaphorical stories on the awakening Kundalini. It helps you explore the hidden realms of the Kundalini Shakti, and understand the power of the process through our personal understanding of the important Nadis (constitute channels of flow of subtle vital force or prana) viz. the susumna, ida and the pingala.

    This book helps you traverse the chakras and pierce the veils surrounding what most people call reality, to reach the shores of the invisible worlds.

    This book is not for the faint hearted, it requires you to reflect upon its every word, as there are some surprising revelations here, told clearly and without obscureness - wonderful insights on nature, the Goddess, the play of Maya and the Path of Liberation.

    Happy Reading!!!

  • AGHORA - AT THE LEFT HAND OF GOD
    by Robert Svoboda
    1993, Rupa & Co., Book I of Svoboda's AGHORA trilogy, 327 pages.

    This book is an indepth study of Tantra through the eyes of the Aghori Vimalananda, the teacher and mentor of author Robert Svoboda. It touches upon various facets of the left handed path (Vama Marg) in Tantra. The Right hand path involves a search for the Ultimate reality via the external imposition of purity. The Left hand path however relies on its practitioners internal purity to protect them while they practice rituals which may involve necromancy, intoxicants, sex or other "forbidden" practices. Most serious aspirants automatically shun the left hand path because of its potential for misuse. which is very great. Aghora however is not indulgence, it is the forcible transformation of darkness into light, luminescence of the Absolute.

    Vimalananda has a propensity to shock the reader throughout the book with his bold foray into words. This book is not for the faint hearted. Though if you read it with purity of the heart and a detached yet intuitive consciousness, many of life's mysteries will be revealed in the most beautiful manner. The most interesting subject he tackles is that of "Runanubandhana" or "Primal Debt" - Birth and Death and living in a womb, over and over again.

    Nothing short of fantastic reading here... Hope to meet you on the other side of darkenss. :-)))

  • SAKTI AND SAKTA
    by Arthur Avalon (Sir John Woodroffe)
    2006, Oriental Book Centre, Delhi, 467 pages.

    This book gives the rationale of Yoga through the Kundalini Sakti. The Sakta tantra is a Sadhana (practise) Shastra (science) of Monistic (Advaitavada) Vedanta. It is the most profound and powerful system in which the doctrine of Sakti or Divine Power is evolved through spiritual intuition by the human mind.

    For all kinds of aspirants - students, practitioners, and scholars alike, this book details the major ideas and concepts of Sakta Tantra and links it to the vedic system and thoughts.

    Great Read!!!

    Note: A Sakta is the follower of Shiva (Absolute Consciousness)
    • Arthur Avalon pioneer the translation of important Sanskrit texts into English, especially texts which described kundalini. His work is a milestone in the research on kundalini practice.
  • TANTRA UNVEILED: SEDUCING THE FORCES OF MATTER & SPIRIT
    by Pandit Rajmani Tigunait
    1999, Himalayan Institute Press, 172 pages.

    This book is a portal - a doorway to the experience of living Tantra. Tantra comes from the root - "Tan" + "Tra" meaning expansion of consciousness. It will tell you how humankind can achieve true and everlasting fulfillment only when all th e threads of the fabric of life are woven according to the pattern designated by nature. This book will tell you that through Tantra Sadhna(practice) one can reweave the fabric of life and restore it to its original pattern.

    Tantric masters discovered a long ago that success in both the outer world and the spiritual realm is possible only if we awake our latent power (in other words our KUNDALINI). Awakening and using Shakti is the goal of tantra and this is why tantra sadhana is also known as Shakti Sadhana (practise to awaken Kundalini)

    This book will engage you, aid you, inspire you and in the end illumine you. A must read.
