Summary: Some useful material for the discriminating seeker
Review: For those without a partner, there are some useful exercises such as the Rishi Isometrics and other breathing exercises. I would recommend learning the MentalPhysics Exercises taught by Edwin Dingle however. This book does contain a more effective form of the 5 Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation that is very popular. Additional techniques are given to make the exercise more effective. Stephon Co's latest book also modifies the 5 Tibetans and makes it easier for the elderly and the infirm. If you're on the Tantric path you could also look into the other comapnion book, The Ipsalue Formula by Bodhi Avinasha. Kriya Tantra Yoga is supposed to be from Babaji Maharaj who gave it to Lahiri Mahasaya who gave it to Sri Mukteswar. Don't know if this is the case or if they ever even spearated White and Black Tantra. Tantra can be the way to enlightenment but most of the stuff out there is contaminated so it's hard to be a purist. Safer to stick with genuine Kriya Yoga for attaining your spiritual goals. For your other needs, check out the One Minute Guide to Prosperity by Sri Siva and Power Healing by Dr. Sha both of whom have web sites for more info.

Summary: kriya yoga tantra student
Review: I'm currently a student of Kriya Yoga and this system, and found this book to be the building block of a solid pratice. I definetely recommend for the sincere student, I will not defend this work from humans as it was meant for human beings. I would say that you should research the authors and find out about them before buying this book if you have doubts. Simply put Sunyata Saraswati was a student of kriyananda(Chicago), Jaradan, and Satyananda(who taught him tantra). All of these teachers are from the Kriya Yoga tradition and traces back to Babaji. Bodhi Avinasha was a student of Sunyata and Osho, which should clarify her statis, I look forward to meeting her soon. Tantra is neither light or dark, it is both if any, which in reality is just a reflection of the goodness or evil in the practitioner. Never fear it and know that those which are meant for tantra will always find it, and those that aren't will gentle flow away from it. Namaste, with the love of mother(Shakti)!!!!!!!

Summary: obscure information
Review: Okay, so not everybody wants to sit on a mountain top & om out. Give us little animals a break. Transend the body, transsend the senses, the mind yadda yadda yadda. if transsending is all that profound, why bother with the karmic path of rebirth. I thought the idea was an acceptance of the entire self & not those bits & pieces we find loathsome, disgusting ... horribly, sentimentally human & impure & imperfect. We all desire sex, we all desire love & to be touched. Not to desire these things is not to be human. To aspire to being a perfect thought wave of the infinite, I thougth I was a piece of the pie. & I don't particularily care for those who have done all these perfect things thinking that to abstain from life is the ultimate goal of life. I don't want to apsire to be god. Been there, done all of that. & all I did was hide from the living. I can't stand that any more. I'm refuse to camp out from life any longer. So this book is not exactly "KRIYA YOGA". To release all imperfections is to release the very quailty which makes all of us all so human.

Summary: obscure information
Review: This book is full of really good breathing exercises that actually do work - I tried them out. It also gives a good description of the Hindu chakra and energy channel systems which to someone who's not into it will sound dorky and airy fairy. Also, you should be warned that there are also several invitations to join the ashram but that's to be expected from any religion. Although the exercises are great, I really didn't like that this book was 100% heterosexual and it seemed to promote worship of women and feminine energy. Yet at the same time it has exercises to balance the feminine and masculine energies. Kinda confusing.

Summary: Deception!
Review: This book presents to the hungry soul a technique for awakening the Kundalini based on ejaculating the sexual energy through the orgasm. What they do NOT tell you is this:

"Man and woman can use sexual intercourse and the delights of love and kisses in order to become Gods or Demons.

"From the dawn of life, a great battle has raged between the powers of Light and the powers of Darkness. The secret root of that battle lies in sex.

"There is the correct interpretation of the mysteries of sex. The White Magicians never ejaculate the semen. The Black Magicians always ejaculate the semen.

"The White Magicians make the igneous serpent of our magical powers ascend through the medullar canal. The Black Magicians make the snake descend towards the Atomic Infernos of the human being."

(Quoted from The Perfect Matrimony by Samael Aun Weor)

This is why our humanity is suffering so much, and why life is truly getting more complicated and more painful: because we ignore the mysteries of sex, and we want to take our animal desire with us to heaven.

Do not be deceived by the illusion of desire: conquer your animal nature, and you can elevate your spirit.

For more information on REAL Tantrism, read the works of the Dalai Lamas and the works of Samael Aun Weor.

Best regards.
