Kundalini – Krishna Gopi
In December 1937, Gopi Krishna, a government clerk in Kashmir who had practiced meditation every morning for seventeen years, experienced a sudden and overwhelming awakening of what Indian tradition calls kundalini, a powerful energy said to lie dormant at the base of the spine.
Kundalini: The Evolutionary Energy in Man is his firsthand account of that experience and its aftermath. He describes the extraordinary sensations of light and expanded consciousness that accompanied the awakening, as well as the years of physical and mental suffering that followed when the process went out of balance, and how he eventually found stability and a transformed state of awareness.
Drawing on his experience, Gopi Krishna argues that kundalini is not merely a mystical or religious idea but a biological mechanism connected to the evolution of human consciousness, and that it may lie behind genius, mystical experience and spiritual traditions around the world. He calls for scientific investigation of the phenomenon and reflects on its implications for human development.
Written with remarkable honesty and detail, the book is considered a classic of spiritual autobiography and is frequently cited by students of yoga, meditation and consciousness.
Kundalini is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Eastern spirituality, the psychology of religious experience and the frontiers of human consciousness. Readers should note that the author describes intense difficulties and cautions against approaching such practices lightly.
