Yogini: Unfolding the Goddess within Paperback – 16 Jun. 2006

Took it up for examination to learn more about this youtube personality's works. Utterly rebarbetic to reason, a novel full of sexual megalomania, an insult to the god[cant make up ones mind where the loyalties lay] if there was one[as a new western convert would babble after living a life full of sensual indulgance. Inherent in it are a projection of one's freudian fantasies self-contradictory as if the god (would wear the dress one wished and must always be fair] a sign of the troubled times of instant kundalini nirvana, a multi billion industry. Ramakrishna spoke exactly the opposite and it is not good to misquote people who were genuine in the OsHo times one lived in. Ther recession surely has its benefits for the industry of rape, propaganda and decadance. It is all but human to seek the definitive truth, the final assurance, something to cling on, hope,pity without having to find out for oneself. Mice and fallen women and men who are exactly the opposite what the Swami Vivekananda urged the youth to do have compassion and live a life worth living in this world and use ones faculties fully rather than living an orgy of nirvana. To die in a scrap heap is better after having done one's best to live every minute as Kipling said, fully rather than imagining orgies and smoking pot. Dragging poor Ramakrishna [who gave very sound advice though he had his failings as Narasing Seal pointed out] and Ramana to fit ones propaganda adds insult to injury.

Very difficult to follow, probably for people who are a lot more into the psychic stuff, I could not read it, I could not understand what she was talking about. Very elaborate. Not for me, or for anyone who is a novice in soul searching.

the book is basically the same paragraph repeated over and overwith minor changes

I read this with a reading group of eight women and we all enjoyed it. The author's perspective and writing were authentic, and we each read the assigned pages and often read ahead. The group had many interesting conversations around the sacred content. I definitely recommend this book!

I enjoyed every word about the Yogini’s personal journey to discover her connection with Shiva and the Devi. I feel it’s my fortune that I got to know about such personal encounters of her being with Devi.Her devotion inspired me in ways unexplainable.

Beautiful book. Was worth reading.

Title itself is misleading... narration has " No Relevance" with the Title. Boring... Time waste...

This is a personal account of Shambhavi`s deep and varied spiritual experiences with Shiva and the Divine Shakti Goddesses. It`s rare to have access to a modern Yogini`s undaunted seeking and for that I am grateful.
