Found this tonight, and thought it was interesting to share because for me,

it clears up some things. This is from the book, " The Soul's Journey: Guidance

From the Divine Within, " by Lawrence Edwards, Ph.D., pages 38 - 39:

 

" I stopped all work on my thesis in order to devote my entire attention to

the Kundalini. Each morning before meditation I worshipped her by chanting the

Kundalini Stavaha (a beautiful, ancient Sanskrit hymn of praise) and doing arati

(a traditional Eastern form of worship) to the Kundalini. I spent the remainder

of the day meditating on Her and contemplating Her nature.

 

One morning, after two weeks of these practices, I did my usual worship and

went into meditation with a prayer to the Kundalini that she give me a deeper

understanding of the transformation She bestows upon the seeker after Her

awakening. What followed was an extraordinary vision.

 

The vision unfolded before my inner eye during the initial two and a half

hours of meditation, though the vision itself spanned years, much as a movie

might tell a story that takes place over a lengthy course of time. When the

vision ended I started to drift up out of deep meditation, but suddenly the

Shakti Kundalini began speaking to me from within, giving me instructions. I

knew she was really a part of myself, but for her invoked presence to take on

such an independent form shocked me and filled me with gratitude. I was

grateful that the Goddess would bestow such grace upon me. She didn't have an

actual shape or form, simply a strong presence that pervaded my consciousness as

she spoke. The beauty of her voice still haunts me.

 

The Goddess Shakti said the experience was a gift, but not meant for me

alone. The Shakti directed me to write down all that I had experienced and see

to it that it was published, making it available to anyone. Having the Shakti

speak to me from within and give specific directions was not my usual

experience! I was hesitant to believe what was happening and even more

reluctant to do it, but the Divine Mother was insistent. She said it was very

important for the knowledge of the spiritual journey and the nature of the

Kundalini to become more widely known in the West. She also said that there was

a great deal of confusion and misunderstanding about the Kundalini that needs to

be corrected. She went on to say that Christians could come to appreciate and

understand the Kundalini Shakti by recognizing that the Holy Spirit and the

Kundalini Shakti are one and the same. "

Hey Sumathi - I never heard of it before, maybe someone else knows. It

just says ancient, Sanskrit hymn of praise. So far, I can't find it in the

glossary or elsewhere in the book, but if I do, I will be sure and let you know.

Sumathi,

 

If you google " kundalini stavah " , you will get some results. There seem to not

be a lot of recordings out there, but there are some available, also the words

in sanskrit. But some of the web sites the google search brings up are

interesting to explore anyway.

 

Love,

 

David

I found it here sung my Sharon Janis. My k loves her singing. She gives the

English interpertation too. There are other songs or hymns there too. I think I

have listened to them all. To get to Kundalini Stavaha just scroll down or up

this page. It is on there.

No biggy Shrikant. I read the post from the website and read and answer as I

read and feel lead to respond. I don't always know someone else has made a reply

until I get there. I think you may have posted before me. :) But it is ok either

way, our post were different or did I give the same website as you.
