In this book, Gopi Krishna shows that the human race is presently in the midst of a world-wide, yet often misunderstood, process of evolution to a higher state of consciousness. The secret knowledge of Kundalini, the biological force controlling this evolution, is as old as mankind and the author graphically reveals the existence of this secret knowledge in the ancient writings and religious mythologies of many cultures. He also shows how this process of evolution is behind the rise and fall of all civilizations since the beginning of human society and why we must understand it in order to ensure the healthy evolution of the race.
Gopi Krishna (30 May 1903 – 31 July 1984) was a yogi; mystic; teacher; social reformer; and writer. He was born in a small village outside Srinagar, in the Jammu and Kashmir State in northern India. He spent his early years there, and later lived in Lahore, in the Punjab of British India.
He was one of the first to popularise the concept of Kundalini among Western readers. His autobiography Kundalini: The Evolutionary Energy in Man, which presented his personal account of the phenomenon of his awakening of Kundalini, (later renamed to Living with Kundalini),was published in Great Britain and the United States and has since appeared in eleven major languages. According to June McDaniel, his writings have influenced Western interest in kundalini yoga.
