Hi everyone,
Michael's talk focused on the premiss, that in order to understand Kundalini, it is first necessary to understand prana. Michael talked about the ancient concept of prana and has updated it with information from both modern science and Gopi Krishna’s direct perception of this amazing medium. One of his key points is that the quality of the prana determines the success of the Kundalini process, and he listed the critical factors that determine the quality of prana.
I have heard this message (that the quality of prana is the most important factor in determining a Kundalini process) from other very experienced and knowledgeable people. If you have any thoughts/comments, it would be great to hear them.
Following Michael's presentation and discussion, I thought it may be useful/interesting to share some more information about Michael and where you can source more of his work.
Michael Bradford has been involved in research into Kundalini and consciousness for more than 45 years. In 1977 he travelled to India where he spent six years serving as a volunteer for the Central Institute for Kundalini Research, founded and directed by the late Pandit Gopi Krishna, the noted authority on Kundalini.
Michael has been a board member of the Institute for Consciousness Research (I.C.R.) since it was founded in the 1990’s, and has been Director of Publications during this time. In 2015, he also became a board member of the Emerging Sciences Foundation (E.S.F.). He was also a founding member of the Kundalini Research Network (K.R.N.) and served as joint coordinator for the organization from 1993 to 1995.
In 2014, Michael retired from a career in the IT consulting field, and since then he has been working to make Gopi Krishna’s theories more widely known, and to encourage research into Kundalini and consciousness.
