Yoga uygulayıcısı kadın anlamına gelen Yogini; yoga ve tantrayı birleştiren, heyecan verici sırları içeren bir spritüel yolculuğu kişisel deneyime dayanarak anlatmaktadır.
Günlük yaşamda içimizdeki tanrı ve tanrıçaları açığa çıkarma yollarını, sıradan bir hayattan duyu ötesi bir dünyaya taşınmayı anlatan bu kitap, spritüel yolda yürümeye istekli herkese ilham kaynağı olacaktır.
"Yaşam ve ruhsal yol arasında, içsel ve dışsal deneyim arasında, kişisel ve spritüel yaşam arasında bir ayrım yoktur. Shambhavi bize içsel deneyimlerini direkt ve akışkan bir tarzda sunuyor, deneyimini bazı zanlara, tekniklere ya da kurallara göre şekillendirmiyor. Aksine, tekniklerin işlemesini sağlayan, ama onlara bağlı olmayan bir enerjisi var. İnsani yanını hem Doğayı, hem de ruhu kucaklayan akışa dâhil ediyor.” Dr. David Frawley
This book is my bible. I appreciate the Vedic and Western explanations of Yoga, Tantra and the spiritual path of a woman. The organic, inner experiences Shambhavi describes in the book are often initiated by the things I appreciate most: Nature, ceremony, and the beauty inherent in life itself. Words written by someone who has been 'there' have their own kind of magic.
I have liked it so far. One note though, it's more by Shambhavi Lorain Chopra than Dr. David Frawley. It's kinda like David just did the editing or something. It's a very feminine book. Very woo, with lots of lush pretty stories of her connection with the gods. I just sorta pick it up when I want a dose of what it is. I've read more than half of it. It's not an instructional manual or anything like that, just one woman's stories.
I read this before my trip to India as the author talks about her experiences at Kamachya. This is a great book for someone intereseted in understanding the relationship between the Goddesses and how we embody their qualities in our everyday lives. not for those who are unfamiliar with yoga or vedic philosophy.
I liked this book so much that I created an exclusive Yahoo! Group dedicated to Shambhavi Lorain Chopra, author of this excellent book "Yogini: Unfolding the Goddess Within". You can visit and join the group at http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Sh...
Shambhavi Chopra's book opened my eyes to living a passionate life with the Divine. Her honest sharing of her experience touched me and has had a lasting impact on my own emerging view of Synchronicity in its many forms.
