The Biological Basis of Religion and Genius (English Edition)

An extremely concise essay on Kundalini as the mechanism responsible for the evolution of the human race. The awakening of this psycho-physiological mechanism through the techniques of Yoga or other suitable disciplines, the author believes, produces a scientifically measurable biochemical essence that is responsible for the phenomena of genius, creativity, inspiration, the religious impulse and revelation. The book contains a lengthy introduction by the internationally respected astrophysicist Dr. Carl Friedrich Freiherr von Weizsacker, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Life Sciences in Germany.
