Kundilini Divine Energy Divine Life,
This review is from: Kundalini: Divine Energy, Divine Life (Paperback)
Cyndi Dale shares in this book her vast knowledge of our subtle energy system and in particular, of course, our kundilini energies. It is written in a language that is very easy to comprehend. It also contains a wealth of information about yoga and diet. I enjoyed every minute I spent reading it and learned a great deal from Cyndi. A must read for anyone who is interested in chakras and our subtle energy system.

A gem of a book,
By Jeanne Garner "msreadsalot" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Kundalini: Divine Energy, Divine Life (Paperback)
Cyndi Dale writes great books, but she outdid herself on this one. So many books on the subject of kundalini are dry and difficult to read, but not "Kundalini: Divine Energy, Divine Life." Dale delivers a book that is both readable and instructive, without resorting, as most kundalini authors do, to language that most westerners find baffling.I love that she covers not only the definitions (I've seen many books devoted to only that), but the process and, when appropriate, remedies for some of the discomforts that sometimes accompany a kundalini awakening. Happily, she handles even these with both calm and common sense, rather than describe them in alarming terms--as I have so often seen in books like this. Even better, she has a section on how to assist your own kundalini awakening, if that is your desire. It's a beautiful process, and I suspect it will work very well. Bear in mind, however, that most of this book is written from the Eastern, yogic point of view. Little mention is made of western experiences, which, in fact, is how my own awakening began. Mine was both different, and similar, to what she described. Another topic I wish she had included is the issue of Reiki and kundalini. Many have reported that Reiki, while not bringing an awakening per se, does seem to clear the way for one when the person is ready. I'd love to see someone cover this topic, and I'd love for it to be Cyndi Dale, because she writes so clearly and elegantly. If you have an interest in this topic, this is the book I'd recommend, hands down. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful

Best Book On Kundalini Awakening Out There - Accessible, Thorough, Engaging,
By L. Erickson "Mommy Mystic" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kundalini: Divine Energy, Divine Life (Paperback)
This is my new favorite book on kundalini, and the energy aspect of the spiritual development and awakening process. I am a fan of Cyndi Dale's energy medicine and chakra healing books, but this book represents a new direction. She offers a thorough, engaging, and accessible description of how the kundalini energy awakens in us, how to trigger such an awakening if we desire, how to live in a manner to stabilize and best integrate the energy, and how to handle its impact. Drawing on kundalini yoga traditions, Tantra, shamanic lineages and her own extensive practice as an energy healer and spiritual counselor, she shares many personal stories and relevant anecdotes, while still managing to convey the necessary 'technical' information in a clear and thorough way.What I especially love about this book is that it is written for anyone - it covers enough of the basics that beginners will be able to appreciate it, but still offers enough in-depth information that I think even long-term practitioners of kundalini yoga, chakra work, or Tantra will still find new information to enjoy. I myself am a long-term practitioner of many of these practices and topics and still found much to savor here. The fact that this book is accessible even to beginners, and outside of any lineage, is what really makes it special, because many traditional books on these subjects are filled with too many Sanskrit and/or esoteric terms for the uninitiated to follow. With an increasing number of people undergoing spontaneous kundalini experiences, a book like this has been much needed. Cyndi draws on multiple traditions for her material and exercises, and combines it with her own insights, utilizing the 12-chakra system that she uses in her own practice, and that is covered in detail in her Complete Book of Chakra Healing. I particularly appreciated her chapters on the differences between the awakening processes for men and women from an energetic perspective - a special interest of mine, and one neglected in most classic yogic books because they were (as she notes) mostly written for men by men. She also makes a point of discussing kundalini awakening as a universal spiritual process, one not 'owned' by any particular religion or culture, although the Eastern spiritual traditions in general offer much more specific teachings to draw from. So, in short, whether you are looking for an introduction to kundalini and the energetic awakening process, or are a devoted practitioner of a kundalini-based tradition and are looking for a new perspective, you can't go wrong with this book. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful

Horrendous formatting [Kindle ed.],
By violetflame - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I would love to love this book. I have read tons of books about Kundalini and this one stands out - content-wise. No complaints about the content, really.But then, formatting. One word: horrendous. Tables are close to unreadable. The whole e-book looks like some scanned OCR-ed book. I can't even imagine how this book would look like on a Kindle (my iPad has much better resolution and rendering). Mixed, hard-to-read font types, random indenting. I was very close to returning this book for the first time in my life since I switched to e-books. I kept it only because it is very concise on a difficult subject. I hope the Kindle version gets corrected soon and we can access the new version. Then I will this review and make it five stars. |
