Product Description
Review
Tantra is widely and grossly misunderstood in the West. In Eros, Consciousness, and Kundalini Dr. Sovatsky provides a much-needed corrective, revealing Tantra's most powerful aspect: the conversion of sexual energy into a higher consciousness-altering vitality. -- Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D., author of Sacred Sexuality
Book Description
Exercises based on yoga and chakra meditation teach you to transform sexual energy into spiritual and erotic fulfillment. *Perfect for deepening a life partnership, gaining mastery over one's body, or healing the emotional scars of sexual abuse. *Well-illustrated positions and techniques.
In this extraordinary celebration of the erotic, Dr. Stuart Sovatsky introduces us to the Tantric art of sexual sublimation, in which sexual energy is redirected toward achieving higher awareness and an erotic satisfaction far beyond that possible through sexual intercourse. The potential reasons for exploring Tantric celibacy are many--including the desire to deepen a life partnership, to gain a new level of mastery over one's body, to heal the emotional scars of sexual abuse, to practice safe sex, or to explore the intimate relationship between spirituality and sexuality.
Exercises based on yoga, kundalini, and chakra meditation make Eros, Consciousness, and Kundalini a practical guide to the world of Tantric celibacy. By transcending the boundaries of conventional sexuality, one can learn to harness the divine energy--glimpsed for only an instant by most people--that is at the heart of all erotic yearning.

A Dangerously Misleading Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eros Consciousness And Kundalini (Paperback)
Stuart Sovatsky writes about subjects of which his knowledge is entirely second-hand. He pays lip service to Eastern philosophy but he clearly has no real understanding of what all the spiritual traditions say about defilement of the fragile and explosive sexual energies. He is an apologist for all kinds of sexual fixations and abnormalities. The practices which he recommends are not only not helpful for those seeking better functioning or enlightenment, but dangerous to psychic equilibrium. Sovatsky's book encourages delusional thinking. It should never have been published.

Not "awsome", but it is a nice introduction to the subject,
This review is from: Eros Consciousness And Kundalini (Paperback)
Note to previous reviewer: Don't you think that it would be nice to have actually read the book(half a book...a chapter, perhaps?) before saying that it is awesome(before saying anything at all) or do you totally miss the point of reviewing?...I think you do. Anyway, it is a nice book, that covers basic concepts of Kundalini in a hutshell. It is orientated towards an average(western) reader, who knows nothing about it. It talks mainly about the "eros" part (for whose, who are looking for something "juicy", you won't find it here). Downside: The book does not have too many practical exercises and the pictures are not very helpful. SO, if you want some theory on the subject with couple of illustrations, this book is OK. However, if you are serious about practicing Kundalini, it won't be much help.
