Mistaken Foreign Beliefs About Shamballah - By Alexander Bezin - Many foreign myths have grown around the legend of Shambhala found in the Kalachakra literature. Some were spread to win military or political support, such as the identification of Russia, Mongolia, or Japan as Shambhala. Others appeared within occult movements and mixed Buddhist ideas with concepts from other systems of belief. Several even spawned expeditions to find the fabled land.

Tantra, Chakra and Kundalini

SivaSakti.com - In-depth Yoga Resource A very user friendly site full of information on every aspect of Tantra and Yoga

Hindu Tantric Home Page- Tantra, or more properly tantrika, is a diverse and rich spiritual tradition of the Indian sub-continent. Although in recent years it has become associated with sexuality, in reality this is one aspect of what is a way of life. There remains an ocean of tantrik literature still to be discovered and translated, spanning a period of time which at least reaches back to the 10th century c.e. 

Gopi Krishna In 1967 he published his first major book in India, Kundalini--The Evolutionary Energy in Man (currently available under the title Living With Kundalini). Shortly thereafter it was published in Great Britain and the United States and has since appeared in eleven major languages. The book presented to the Western world for the first time a clear and concise autobiographical account of the phenomenon of the forceful awakening of Kundalini, which he had experienced in 1937, and the long process by which he eventually attained the perennially transformed or sahaja state of consciousness. This book, and the sixteen other published works by Gopi Krishna have generated a steadily growing interest in the subjects of consciousness and the evolution of the brain.

Kundalini Information & Kundalini Network This Great site has lots of information on the dangers of early arousal of kundalini. In Scandinavia, several people who themselves had experienced a Kundalini process, got together and formed a network to help themselves and others. Up to now, the network has had contact with ca. 500 people with Kundalini arousal. Our attempt is to create a forum where different opinions and viewpoints available on the subject, can meet and interact, hopefully enabling further understanding of what contact with these Kundalini energies implies.

Kundalini SpiritWeb: A Collection of Kundalini Resources: "``Kundalini'' literally means coiling, like a snake. In the classical literature of hatha yoga kundalini is described as a coiled serpent at the base of the spine. The image of coiling, like a spring, conveys the sense of untapped potential energy. Perhaps more meaningfully kundalini can be described as a great reservoir of creative energy at the base of the spine."

The Church of Tantra Real "Tantra" is a rigorous spiritual discipline and a vast field of study, with the sexual aspect being an important part of it. Mystical experiences and altered states of consciousness result from many of the processes, especially the ones with sexual energy at their core. The act of ritual lovemaking is a participation in cosmic and divine processes. The experience of transcending space and time, of surpassing the phenomenal duality of spirit and matter, of recovering the primal unity, the realization of the identity of God/Goddess, Shiva/Shakti and of the manifested and unmanifested aspects of the All: these constitute the very mystery of Tantra.
