A bridge between Eastern knowldge and Western perceptions

This is my first ever review of a book here at Amazon. Being a published author myself and having over 200 books on consciousness and spirituality, it is often difficult to find something that truly provides a new level of insight and understanding of things. I found this book provocative in so many aspects that I was compelled to meet the author and work with him on a personal basis. It is truly a rare opportunity to garner insight into aspects of consciousness that anyone whom is interested in this subject matter desires to know about. I recommend this book highly.

Jai Mata

3 weeks ago I was thinking about buying this book, because I became interested in Kali or "Smashan Tara" after reading the Aghora trilogy by DR Svoboda, I went to North London and when I went to the ATM to get money for this book £20 was already there.. I bought it with £15 and bought a Kali Ma CD with the rest ..... this is the power of our mother, she will ALWAYS look out for us, and I am ALWAYS in her service ...Jai Ma Kali !!!

Kali's Oddiya

Amarananda has done all of us a great favor by making these secret teachings public. There was no way people like us would ever have known, even though I was born and brought up in India. My first reaction on reading the book was one of fear. My next - I too want to be free!!

captivating memoir - a must read!

as an avid reader of biographies, i highly recommend "kali's odiyya". the author provides an intimate glimpse into a culture that revers the divine feminine. this book is a favorite on my bookshelf. it also makes a fabulous gift for friends that enjoy a well presented, enchanting life story.
