I would recommend this book strongly to anyone who is interested in knowing basics of Indian alchemy and about siddhars.3 of 5 people found the following review helpful. MehBy G. K. C.There is a lot of information in this text. And much of it is truly inspired.I just wish it wasn't so damn belabored. What could have been an exciting read full of fascinating subject matter; more often put me to sleep.I went on to read Kiss of the Yogini; and Sinister Yogis. I believe The Alchemical Body to be the best of the three. All three books have great information. And all three have the same academic writing style that present information in its driest; most boring form.
