The Swami Kripalu Reader: Selected Works from a Yogic Master

Swami Kripalvananda (Bapuji) was one of the great saints of the 20th Century. Meditating 10 hours a day for 30 years, he survived the awakening of kundalini, turned the evolutionary power upward, opened the chakras, and achieved kechari mudra, the doorway to the formation of the Divine Body, the spectacular culmination of Sahaja, or Natural Yoga. In this book, author, historian John Mundahl, who spent 4 years with Swami Kripalu, introduces us to this remarkable saint…his life as a writer, musician, story-teller, public speaker, yoga sadhak (practitioner) and his life in his own words.
