"Kundalini yoga presented Jung with a model of something that was almost completely lacking in Western psychology--an account of the development phases of higher consciousness.... Jung's insistence on the psychogenic and symbolic significance of such states is even more timely now than then. As R. D. Laing stated... 'It was Jung who broke the ground here, but few followed him.'"--From the introduction by Sonu Shamdasani Jung's seminar on Kundalini yoga, presented to the Psychological Club in Zurich in 1932, has been widely regarded as a milestone in the psychological understanding of Eastern thought and of the symbolic transformations of inner experience. Kundalini yoga presented Jung with a model for the developmental phases of higher consciousness, and he interpreted its symbols in terms of the process of individuation. With sensitivity toward a new generation's interest in alternative religions and psychological exploration, Sonu Shamdasani has brought together the lectures and discussions from this seminar. In this volume, he re-creates for today's reader the fascination with which many intellectuals of prewar Europe regarded Eastern spirituality as they discovered more and more of its resources, from yoga to tantric texts. Reconstructing this seminar through new documentation, Shamdasani explains, in his introduction, why Jung thought that the comprehension of Eastern thought was essential if Western psychology was to develop. He goes on to orient today's audience toward an appreciation of some of the questions that stirred the minds of Jung and his seminar group: What is the relation between Eastern schools of liberation and Western psychotherapy? What connection is there between esoteric religious traditions and spontaneous individual experience? What light do the symbols of Kundalini yoga shed on conditions diagnosed as psychotic? Not only were these questions important to analysts in the 1930s but, as Shamdasani stresses, they continue to have psychological relevance for readers on the threshold of the twenty-first century. This volume also offers newly translated material from Jung's German language seminars, a seminar by the indologist Wilhelm Hauer presented in conjunction with that of Jung, illustrations of the cakras, and Sir John Woodroffe's classic translation of the tantric text, the Sat-cakra Nirupana. ?

Kundalini Yoga is the path to freedom. Swami Radha has translated the esoteric teachings of Kundalini into a practical guide for self-investigation. This classic yogic text is a resource for personal development, with the tools for discovering our true source of knowledge and inspiration. Using reflection exercises, meditations and breathing techniques, Swami Radha takes us step by step, chakra by chakra, through an exploration of consciousness. Who am I? What is the purpose of my life? In the practice of Kundalini Yoga, you ask yourself many questions and must always be willing to investigate your answers. As you become stronger at looking for possibilities, you may accept the challenge of discovering the mystery deep within yourself, the innate power that is called Kundalini. "Kundalini Yoga for the West is one of the few books on Kundalni Yoga written by a Westerner that strikes me as being authentic. I always admired Swami Radha for being very faithful to the tradition, yet finding ways to translate that wisdom into Western terms using psychology and imagery that we are familiar with. There are not many teachers who have that capability. Kundalini Yoga for the West is an outstanding accomplishment. I love referring to it, and I always recommend it to people." - Georg Feurstein, Yoga Research and Education Center "The importance of Swami Radha's work is becoming more apparent with every passing year. This book, a wonderful achievement, is a gift to all seekers. It is significant, relevant, and timeless." - Gene Kieffer, Founder/Director of the Kundalini Research Foundation
