Especially For Women
Kundalini Yoga
The Flow of Eternal Power
by Shakti Parwha Kaur Khalsa
This is perhaps the best introduction
to Kundalini Yoga available. While being light hearted
and easy to read it gives full and complete instructions
on many different aspects of the practice of Kundalini
Yoga. Contained here you will find philosophy, physical
exercises, breathing techniques, mantras, kriyas, cooking
tips and recipes, poetry and graphics that all make it
fun to dive into this multifaceted tradition. If you want
to craft a personal practice for 20 minute or
two hours the many ideas and practices shared
in this incredible book will give you everything you need.
Yoga for relaxation, mental and physical health, spiritual
growth; it is all here. And it is all imparted
as if from a dear friend.
While
some of the advice not pertaining to practice my seem
a bit old fashioned, especially regarding
the role of women and male/female relations, the practices
are sound and the advice meant in a good natured way from
a woman brought up in a different time and culture. As
with all yoga texts, you must check everything against
your own inner knowing. When you do, I'm sure you will
find this book a rare treasure and boon to your well being.
Shakti Parwa Kaur Khalsa was the first woman to
study with Yogi Bhajan in the United States. Shakti has been teaching Kundalini
Yoga for over 30 years and was ordained a minister in the Sikh Dharma in 1974.
