"This in-depth discussion of chakra philosophy is written for serious yoga students.... aspiring yogis and yoginis will find it enlightening". -- Yoga Journal The time is right for this book. As the world spins faster and faster around us, we are bombarded with energies (television, cyberspace) that prohibit intellectual or spiritual nourishment. Bohm shows you how to elevate your soul beyond the daily attack and onto the path to spiritual enlightenment. He presents the nature and functions of the chakras in a form that can be easily understood by Westerners. The chakras are your energy centers, and Bohm teaches you how to tap that energy, center it. and cope with stress. He describes and names the different chakras, emphasizing their spiritual aspects. Bohm shows that spiritual enlightenment is not attained by simply using breathing exercises or by selecting a special vegetarian diet. He includes the theories necessary for modern students to understand how the eight stages of yoga follow one another. Bohm discusses working with kundalini energy, gives practical postures for meditation, and shows you how to master the senses so you can learn to be in control of your life. Werner Bohm always had an interest in alternative medicine, Hindu philosophy, and astrology. His discovery of the works of Rudolf Steiner convinced him of the need for this book, which became a classic in Germany.
