    Synopsis

    The Five Tibetans are a yogic system of highly energizing postures and exercises that originated in the Himalayas. Liberating and enhancing the innate energetic power of the human body and mind, these five exercises take a minimum of daily time and effort but offer remarkable results in the way of increased physical strength and suppleness as well as mental acuity. In addition, these exercises can be a vehicle for enlivening the senses and generating and harnessing energy for the purpose of self- transformation.

    Regular practice of these postures relieves muscular tension and nervous stress, improves respiration and digestion, benefits the cardiovascular system, leads to deep relaxation and well-being, and tunes and energizes the chakras.

    The Five Tibetans are explained within the context of traditional yoga, providing a foundation for understanding.

    Black-and-white photographs and illustrations complement the text and clearly indicate the proper execution of each exercise.

    Hinduism Today

    Kilham brings to The Five Tibetans nicely written chapters about kundalini, the chakras and an especially insightful instruction on the role of breathing while doing each rite. Excellent and recommended.

    08/03/2009: This is a most informative book. There are three better books on the market regarding the Five Tibetans but this is a good place to start. Trust ALL of the information in the book because these exercises do everything that the publication says it will.

    08/06/2003: The book is short and so are the exercises. Whether or not they will work, I have yet to determine. Nevertheless, it serves as a good introduction to yoga, meditation and working with your chakras as well as handling sexual energy.
