The aim of this book is to suggest a preliminary protocol to support the fire
of kundalini, allowing for permanent gains in transformation. To do this we
must prevent ego blowback and prevent neurodegeneration, thereby reducing the
biological depression that often happens after an awakening. As the science of
kundalini progresses such a protocol for adaptation or higher homeostasis will be
greatly refined and expanded. Till then, please be aware dear reader that this is an
experimental book. The medical research that will give us the definitive answers
to the secrets of metamorphosis has yet to be done. In the past we have had no
scientific understanding as to what was actually happening during kundalini and
so the alchemy of spirit was shrouded in mystery and superstition. Now in with
modern science we can begin to understand what is really going on, and thus build
an alchemical science like never before. There is an urgent need to understand
the evolutionary process of transmutation, for our human survival might indeed
necessitate it.
The Biology of Kundalini will hopefully change the way we look at spiritual
evolution, medicine and ourselves. With this book I offer a theory of the biology of
kundalini, which explains many of the symptoms, suggests a protocol of adaptation,
and encourages research into a new branch of medicine...”Evolutionary Medicine.”
It is part self-help book and part notes for students, scientists and medical minds
with an interest in the alchemy of consciousness. It also honors the often difficult
process of spiritual crisis in a way that hopefully will reduce the suffering for those
undergoing the Great Transformation, and for those around them watching
the miracle. This information will be invaluable for anyone going through an
awakening, for their family and for therapists both medical and psychological.
BOK is laid out in spiral fashion so that subjects will be picked up again further
down the path at a deeper level, after interlocking material on related subjects. If
you are a doctor or kundalini researcher, you may want to download BOK from
lulu.com so that you can do word searches and connect up the loops of the spiral
in your own documents. I recommend you pass over areas you find dry on the first
couple of readings. If the subject of metamorphosis in anyway inspires you then
eventually even the dry areas will become juicy.
It is very important to grasp the distinction between “damage” (pathology and
disease) and the transformative process of “metamorphosis.” Certain phases of
metamorphosis include cellular necrosis and catabolic breakdown, for the new
cannot grow without the removal of the old. Kundalini with its amplified metabolism
and nerve activity and increased oxidation, will eventually tend to down-regulate
neurotransmitter and hormonal receptors, as well as rewiring the nervous system.
However even if we are in the between-slump, when the hyper-functioning has
