[1 eBook – PDF]
Description
This is a book about a true master of real tantra. This is not woo woo neo-tantra New Age garble, this is the real deal. Beware however, tantra is not what you think it is. Depending on what kind of mentality you have, you could come away from this book thinking that the subject of the book is an arrogant ego-maniac OR that he’s an extraordinarily wise and loving man. That distinction is a product of where you’re at.My suggestion is to go into with an open mind…this book might just change your life.—————————————Book DescriptionThe Aghora trilogy have been embraced world-wide for their frankness in broaching subjects generally avoided and their facility for making the ‘unseen’ real. We enter the world of Vimalananda who teaches by story and living example. Some reviews from amazon: The Left Hand Path to God, August 8, 2001 By Scott Snyder (Northern California) – See all my reviews This is an interesting book. It reminds me of Walt Whitman’s line that its not the book but a piece of the man himself that you touch when you read it. The writing was very clear, accessible, and left me with the impression that I was in the actual presence of Vimalananda. I could smell him.Having said that, this is the story of a Hindu shaman/sorcerer. Like a shaman he has powers, communes with spirits, is a healer and something of a joker too. Vimalanand has a great wit. And sometimes when he’s in the middle of a serious story all I could think was, this guy’s trying to pull my leg. You could almost see him winking at you in between the lines.As an approach to God, this is not for me. It’s a very dangerous path, physically, psychologically and spiritually. As a westerner, I just listened. I didn’t get the urge to go out and try this stuff myself. There are enough warnings in the book to that effect as well.The section on sexualtiy was very enlightening and surprisingly modern. However the practice of Vajroli is beyond credulity. I would have to see this with my own eyes to even begin to believe it’s possible.I was just getting to the chapter on spirits and thought “yeah, yeah. Right.” One night I left the book in my car inside a cheap bookbag. The next morning I got into the car and found someone had broken into the car to steal the book. Nothing else was taken. I dont know if this was a synchronicity, bad luck or spirits, but it certainly made me wonder. I waited 3 months before buying another copy and finishing. True story.Bottom line: I would take it all with a grain of salt and with a lot of caution. This book packs real power. The Most Honest and Powerful Book I Had Ever Read!!!, April 28, 2004 By Sadhvi (Ft.Lauderdale, Florida United States) – See all my reviews If I were never to read another book, for the rest of my life, I would be content with the knowledge I gathered from this book.No other publication has aspired me in such height and inspired in me such depth. The inherent message in this book is that all things, no matter how vulgar or offensive, are all worthy of our love and consideration. I am grateful for this Divine Mastery… Don’t fear reality, January 28, 2003 By A Customer”Aghora At the left hand of God” is a book I would surly recommend for anyone on the spiritual journey. I feel it is necessary to be open minded and trust divine intuition. The portrait of Aghori Vimalananda’s life is very straight to the point, and may make one’s lacking in faith a bit frightened. Or on the flip side, it may just be the divine spark needed to ignite the spirit of faith within you. If you trust, “that still small voice within”, and your guru you will be able to gain great inspiration and perspective from this wonderful book. Anyone, who knows anything about eastern philosophy can relate and grow from Aghora. It will take you through realities not many were meant to know about, at least not until the moment of death maybe. ——————I got this from isohunt and if you wish to avoid the ratio for the 20MB download, you can get it there.
