In this book, Gopi Krishna, an inspired scientific philosopher from India, forges a working alliance between the two world views, i.e., the scientific and religious, on religion.

Coiled like a snake at the base of the spine, kundalini is the spiritual force that lies dormant in every human being. Once awakened, often through meditation and yoga practices, it rises up the spine and finds expression in the form of spiritual knowledge, mystical vision, psychic powers, and ultimately, enlightenment. This is the classic first-person account of Gopi Krishna, an ordinary Indian householder who, at the age of thirty-four, after years of unsupervised meditation, suddenly experienced the awakening of kundalini during his morning practice. The story of this transformative experience, and the author's struggle to find balance amid a variety of powerful physiological and psychic side effects, forms the core of the book. His detailed descriptions of his dramatic inner experiences and symptoms such as mood swings, eating disorders, and agonizing sensations of heat—and of how, with the help of his wife, he finally stabilized at a higher level of consciousness—make this one of the most valuable classics of spiritual awakening available.

The Way to Self-Knowledge

Hinduism

Kundalini Research Foundation

The current state of confusion about the real nature of spiritual experience is due to a lack of understanding of how the brain functions as a channel for the expression of consciousness. In this book, Gopi Krishna challenges scientists and psychiatrists alike to stop ignoring the important part the physical brain plays in our development. He asserts that an understanding of prana, the super-intelligent cosmic energy behind all forms of life, is the key to understanding how higher forms of reality and other planes of creation, currently inaccessible to us, will become available for exploration.

The Wonder of the Brain

Institute for Consciousness Re

The Real Nature Of Mystical Experience This work is a clear, concise and logical exposition of the mechanism responsible for genius, creativity, paranormal phenomena and spiritual experience. It clarifies the role of mystical experience as the common thread running through and uniting all religions and points out the grave consequences of sciences inability to understand the crucial role that it has played in the intellectual and moral development of our civilization. This work is especially concerned with the current conflict between science and religion. Kundalini In Time And Space This work contains some facts about Kundalini which it is necessary to grasp first before this mysterious Force and the mechanism behind it can be understood. Gopi Krishna explains the real nature of the chakras and the source of the energy which can bring about a revolution in our consciousness and outlines the most effective way to undertake a spiritual practice. The book also deals with psychic powers, enhanced creativity and emphasizes the crucial role of lifestyle in the healthy spiritual development of the individual. Reason and Revelation This is a work which challenges the agnostic and atheistic attitudes of modern science. As Gopi Krishna assesses the situation I know that Revelation has been right in predicting a glorious spiritual destiny for mankind and Reason has been grievously wrong. The marvels of technology we see around, beyond a certain limit that has been passed, can become a prison for the evolving human mind. He asserts that in order to progress in a healthy way, science must free itself of the self-imposed, rigid and closed-minded attitudes that have limited its scope of investigation into non-physical realms of creation.

Three Perspectives on Kundalini

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.

The Dawn of a New Science

Gopi Krishna, born and reared in a rural area of Kashmir, achieved Cosmic Consciousness at the age of 34. This is such a rare achievement that it is unlikely that there have been more than five or six similar achievements over the past several hundred years. His more than 17 books, and many discourses, are considered the bible on the subject of Super-Consciousness and brain evolution. This book makes it absolutely clear as to what is Enlightenment, or Illumination, or Super-Consciousness, which is crucial for any aspirant who wishes to attain Higher Consciousness. Unless one knows the target of his or her spiritual practices, how can he hope to achieve that target. It is the same with any exercise or attainment. One must know in advance what it is that he is striving for. This book describes the goal. No other book does this as clearly and definitively as "The Real Nature of Mystical Experience."
