The Call to Spiritual Experience: An Introduction to Traditional Kundalini Science with Joan Shivarpita Harrigan
Oct 16 2010 - Oct 17 2010
Kundalini vidya is the ancient science of understanding and facilitating spiritual development. An exquisite and practical system based in scripture and traditional teachings, it explains the spiritual journey. Kundalini vidya demystifies mysticism by offering precise explanations that clarify spiritual experience and practice. By providing a description of subtle body physiology, it reveals the causes and variations of non-ordinary experiences and enables the seeker to understand blocks to progress. These spiritual practices allow the seeker to align with the inner spiritual director, called kundalini shakti in the Vedic tradition. This divine light, love, and life within ultimately leads to the culmination of the spiritual endeavor, awareness of union with the One.
