Written by a leading authority on Shaktic and Tantric thought, this book is considered the prime document for study and application of Kundalini yoga. It probes the philosophical and mythological nature of Kundalini; the esoteric anatomy associated with it; the study of mantras; the chakras, or psychic centers in the human body; the associated yoga and much, much more. Two important Tantric documents are included: The Description of the Six Chakras and Five-fold Footstool.
This is not the usual "New Age" tantric sex manual, but a deeply
esoteric and traditional book. The scene of the revelation of this
Tantra is in the Himalayas, a holy land weighted with the
traditions. Here in these lofty lands, rose the great mountain, the
Sapta Kula Parvata. In these mountains Munis and Rishis lived. Here
also is the Kshetra of Shiva Mahadeva, where His Spouse Parvvati,
the daughter of the Mountain King, was born, and where Mother
Ganges also has her source. The paradise of Shiva is a summerland
of both lasting sunshine and cool shade, musical with the song of
birds and bright with undying flowers. The air, scented with sweet
fragrance, resounds with the music and song of celestial singers
and players. It is not, however, necessary to go to the Himalayas
to find Shiva. He dwells whereever his worshippers, abide, and His
mystic mount is to be sought in the thousand-petalled lotus in the
body of every human.
The present book Sarada-Tilaka of Laksmana Desikendra is one of the
important texts on Tantric subjects. It is divided into 25
Chapters. Chapter 1 is Prakrti and deals with the origin of
creation: the 23 chapters which follow demonstrate Prakrti-Vikrti;
the last chapter 25 is beyond Prakrti and Vikrti. But Sarada-Tilaka
is a tantric treatise which deals primarily with the Tantric
worship of gods and goddesses.
This Is A New Release Of The Original 1916 Edition.
