* Goal: to create a Master translation of a single, powerful, and mysterious text, which outlines the most sophisticated Chakra System and Kundalinī Practice every revealed to the West.
* This text is replicated on seven different 'Chakra Scrolls, representing four regional scripts of the Sanskrit Language. It survives in seven different scrolls discovered by Christopher Tompkins from 2012-present.
* The seven scrolls, containing virtually the same text, come from a single source. They were discovered in Kashmir, Punjab, Kerala, and the Deccan.
* My first translation, in 2014, was based on the first two scrolls discovered. Both are from Kashmir.
* Most importantly, this text alludes to the sequence (vinyāsa) of Kundalinī based Yoga practices assigned to each chakra.
* The chakra system known to the West was transmitted by Arthur Avalon in 1918, from a single text.
* The vinyāsa for the chakra system we've inherited exists in a chapter not translated by Avalon. Thus the west has never heard of it.
* Chakras were considered essentially useless without the yoga sādhana for which they serve as props or guides.
