An Incredibly Intense ReadMay 24, 2007 10 out of 14 found this review helpful
I found this book an incredibly intense book to read. There's nothing simple about it. I had hoped for both clarity and understanding and received neither. I kept reading...hoping upon hope that Shamdasani's words would hold me spellbound and captivated.
I seek truth in its simplest form, but did not find it here. While I am certain that Shamdasani's intent was to provide the reader with an intelligent read, his need for intellectual diatribes created, in stead, an emotional abyss; I found that I could not connect with his analysis without great intensity of focus. Frankly, I didn't have either the time or the inclination to work that hard to grasp the connections.
Had Shamdasani employed simplicity of thought and content as his guides, the average reader might actually benefit from his wisdom and intellect.
Worth reading both for Jung and for ShamdasaniFebruary 26, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Jung's ideas on Kundalini are brilliant, but reveal more about Jungian psychology than Kundalini. As with all of Shamdasani's writing, his introduction provides a historical context that both enriches Jung's interpretation and tells us much of the era in which his ideas emerged
Although Jung didn't understand kundalini phenomenon...June 1, 2000 12 out of 22 found this review helpful
...or what we now refer to as Spiritual Emergence, he amplifies the chakra symbols with such interesting illustrations that the book is well worth the price paid for it.
