Sri Saundarya Lahari (The Descent)

If you wish to know about and experience the underlying Shakti (Energy) of life and creation in its most deepest unmanifest form, look no further , this is a text of great value for helping with modern life in re -connecting with the ancient wisdom that we have on board, within right now. It just a matter of practice, practices with an open mind. This text has been of immeasurable value in bringing me to my own shakti, why this body moves? what makes this body move? and how this body moves? And how it can also be stilled without want or need of anything, through this real understanding of Beauty in all its myriad of manifestations all the way in return to its source.. Devi. I acknowledge this text to be indeed a great treasure..of understanding and experiencing life and existence.

The Bihar school take on any of the texts they re-present is always worth reading. I love the Bihar school and Satyananda's approach that flows through all their works. I do find them more Vedic dressed up as Tantra, if you like Vedic in drag rather than deep heart-core Tantra... but then that's what you are going to get from a lineage of celibates... awesome work though, so much gratitude.

It is a very elaborate translation and commentary on Sankara's Saundaryalahari. The author must have some personal experience to write such a text. Even for one who is not exactly "on the same track" as the author, this text is widening the spiritual horizont to the realms of pure love and devotion.

Beuatiful commentary on the veneration of the goddess, though from ascetic perspective. There is a lot to enjoy for body and mind to meditate on.

An excellent translation of the ancient text. Every yogi would benefit from reading this book. Great pictures and diagrams, positive feminity!

Buenisimo

verfasst von einer weiblichen Swami , Saraswati Satyasangananda . Zur Meditation mit Yantras fand ich durch eine Vision , es war also mein eigenes Inneres , das mich zu dieser Praxis geführt hat .Ebenso riet mir meine innere Stimme , dieses Buch zu lesen . Es schildert , wie man mit Shri Yantra meditieren kann . Dabei werden die einzelnen graphischen Bestandteile des Yantras erläutert und in Beziehung zu einer Hymne von Shankara gesetzt , die an die verschiedenen Aspekte von Shakti gerichtet ist . So ergibt sich ein weites Anwendungsspektrum für viele Bedürfnisse . Dabei wird klar , dass der Göttin Shakti die Verbesserung der irdischen Lebensumstände ebenso am Herzen liegt wie das Fördern spiritueller Einsichten . Jede Art von Trennung wird überwunden und so stellt Shri Yantra letztlich die von der Göttin belebte ganze Welt dar . Die Praxis von Shri Yantra heilt auf diese Weise das Herz und hilft , die Welt im Licht der Göttin zu sehen . Swami Satsangis ( so die Abkürzung des Namens der Autorin ) Sprache - das Buch ist in Englisch verfasst - ist einfach und klar , auch da , wo es um tiefere Zusammenhänge geht .

This book is must read if you are sri vidya upasaka or interested in learning about the cosmic creation. The book is very thorough and explains basic fundamentals of the sri yantra as well. There is so much knowledge to gain and this book justifies the learning about the saundarya lahari, the Shakti. The book was wrapped well to avoid any damage during the shipping, so kudos to the shipper as well.

A must read book to understand Tantric philosophy and sadhana. Thanks to seller for sending the book in good condition and safe packaging.
