The Mysterious Kundalini

by Vasant G. Rele

An Indian physician's attempt to explain kundalini yoga in terms of Western anatomy, identifying the chakras with nerve plexuses and kundalini with the nervous system. It is an important document of the early twentieth-century effort to reconcile yoga with modern physiology, though its correlations are speculative.
