I agreed with a lot of the contents of this book, but the writing style began to irritate me. For one thing, this is a collection of essays on the topic of kundalini, and since they appeared in various sources there is a lot of repetitive information. Gopi Krishna writes about kundalini in a fervent manner and almost with a religiosity about his own findings. It can come off as a bit conceited at points, and he seems to commit the same crime of self-absorption as the people he criticizes. It’s not that I disagree with anything he writes here. In fact, much of it I wholeheartedly agree with, but rather I feel that the repetition of this books contents and the over selling of his own ideas can turn off rather than win over the reader.

The day I discovered this book is the day that changed my life. I knew that this book was special and I read it slowly to enjoy it and prolong the ecstasy which I felt inside through the discovery of the key behind the experiences in my life which one might call mystical/paranormal. I became friends with the editor Gene Kieffer who has sacrificed his life to bring this message to humanity, that of the wonders which exist within each of us, and especially our brains. I would ask people who haven't had a taste of the mystical to keep an open mind, for new discoveries come online every day, and the universe is a grand mystery. Gopi Krishna sheds light on an important segment of the mystery, at least explaining how and why the brain is in a state of continued evolution and how it's stamped with the blueprint of Nature's ultimate goal, cosmic consciousness.
