After reading this book, I am still in awe. I second other’s opinions. This book is such a precious jewel for every Kriya practitioner.
It goes one step further than all other Yoga books that I have read. Here you will learn how to merge Kriya Yoga, Jnana Yoga and Bhakti Yoga into a powerful all-encompassing Yoga. The final chapters are fantastic. The author also explains the different Samadhis without any fancy and ambiguous language.
The best part of this book for me, is some of the profound and direct teachings regarding the "I" and the complete reverse of Yoga (union) on its head toward an absolute nondual approach! That's something I’ve never heard from any present-day Kriya Yoga gurus, organizations or even in any other Yoga book at all. Those teaching are the last step toward Freedom that is lacking in Kriya Yoga and most Yoga traditions these days.
There are also many quotes from the great Masters, backing up what the author shares. Disagreeing with this book is disagreeing with the Truth all those Masters pointed out, which is so clearly exposed in this book.
All authentic Kriya and Yoga practitioners need this book, now more than ever, especially those who have been practicing meditation or spiritual practices without proper results for years. I know I was one of them.
I wholeheartedly recommend it.
EDIT 3/2021:
Three years after this review, I decided to come here to give my update on this book and teachings.
I have to say that my opinion has not changed. If truth be told, I am not even more grateful for SantataGamana’s books on Kriya Yoga. They have helped me achieve what I honestly feel that I couldn’t have achieved otherwise.
I have now read his whole series of books (eight books at the time of writing this review update), and I firmly stand by the same opinion of my other review: This is spirituality that I find nowhere else. It’s not about techniques, deities, guru figures, kriya institutions or organizations. It’s much more than that.
Like I said in my review of Kriya Yoga Exposed, even though I had exclusively practiced Kriya Yoga for a long time, something was lacking. When I found out about this collection of books, it all changed. I finally "understood". It's unfortunate that many Kriya gurus or books don't go this deep and more in line with Advaita teachings. They place too much focus on techniques, which become like an automated process.
I was too attached to the techniques and couldn’t see the real goal. This is a common problem with many Kriya Yogis.
Notwithstanding, this book shares great advanced techniques, and also emphasizes the Crown Chakra Kriya practice. I thoroughly enjoy practicing the upgraded versions of Kriya Pranayama and Yoni Mudra (but you should be practicing the initial techniques (Kriya Pranayama, etc) from Kriya Yoga Exposed first).
On the author’s website there’s also an excellent post with detailed information on different forms of Kriya Yoga. I recommend you check that if you are interested in some visual aspects (there are visual explanations there).
Kriya Yoga with an Advaita flavor, directing the practitioner towards the real Parvastha state is the paradigm-shift you need to grasp. No other book or teaching explains this like these two Kriya books.

Informative
Insightful reading like the author’s previous book. Didn’t find the words dizzying as is the case in most books of similar subject matter. The more I read about Kriya the more convinced I get about learning it from a Guru or Teacher. Preliminary pranayamas and techniques such as Hong Sau can be learnt from books, but not the real deal i.e. proper Kriya Yoga.Saurabh KumarInformative

At least, that’s what I feel.
