About Don Lee Daniels: Listening at the Edge of Consciousness
Direct experience reshapes your reality. And you can learn how to access these states of consciousness deliberately --and at will. Don Lee Daniels: Listening at the Edge of Consciousness is a weekly podcast rooted in Nondual Śaiva Tantra and forty-plus years of direct contemplative practice. Each episode explores Kuṇḍalinī Śakti awakening. Advanced meditation. Conscious out-of-body exploration (OBE) — drawing from the ancient tandra state practices of Nondual Śaiva Tantra, the dream yoga tradition of Vajrayāna Tibetan Buddhism, and the experiential work of modern OBE pioneers. Not just philosophy. Direct experience. Hosted by Don Lee Daniels, also known as Swami Jñānānanda, formally initiated into the ancient Saraswati Order in 1980.

When Kuṇḍalinī Śakti Awakens, What Happens Next? — The Five Stages of Spiritual Transformation
Most teachings stop at the fireworks — the energy, the visions, the kriyas. But what happens after Kuṇḍalinī Śakti awakens is where practitioners get lost. Not from lack of sincerity. From lack of a map. In this episode, I share the five stages of spir...

SPANDA — THE PULSE THAT RUNS THROUGH EVERYTHING
In over forty years of practice, I've felt this energy arrive in every conceivable way — sometimes a roar, sometimes a kriyā moving my body into spontaneous yoga, sometimes nothing more than a faint trickle at the base of the spine. That trickle has a ...
