Heroic tantric journey
This is a good book not excellent ,it traces life and experiences of protagonist vimlananda and his spiritual journey the beautiful thing about it is that along with the story proper explanation of the knowledge also given, for the newbees in spirituality this contains unimaginable amazing things ,but who are already tantrics (in true sense) and those who knew about tantra would not be much amazed, but overall its a good mix of philosophy story and theory,an its best among the series as i read all three of them , i bought it because of hype it generated but have not found to be ultra enlightening as amateur readers have suggested, though its excellent for spiritual seekers and people intersted in spiritual mysticism of india, though at many places i found that vimalananda has not been able to risen above his psychology and projected his theory as right only which cant be the case as spirituality is wast and there are many methods, saying that other methods are tough or not for kaliyug only proves over emphasis on your diety and obsession of your own genertaed theories as many times the writer himself seemed not thoroughly convinced, vimalananda,s extreme emphasis on rinanubandhan has overtly streched unproptionately over three books,and many other facets he also seem like contradicting or not explaining things carefully may be to let his diety got impressed theres a smell of egoism in all three books which vimlananda himself accepted though indirectly,some sentences seem like absurd and insolent towards particular diety whos not vimlanandas most favourites, but anyhow its a good book whith a very nice flow though its has only one aspect the life of vimalananda ,but the concepts are explained intelligently and journey it takes you on is really amazing as the time when i just got the book from amazon and just wanted to oversee it before reading thoroughly ,it mesmerized me from the first word and i spent noon evening and night reading the book it is certainly that interesting as you ,ll know the amazing beautiful horrific magical and very myterious world of tantra,though through eyes and limited perception of the protagonist which is quite authentic some times ,definately very good book must read for spiritual seekers

Balanced, authentic and lucid
It is refreshing to see a book that gives glimpses of a true Aghori. Not that Vimalananda ji needs my approval, but reading this book really invoked a lot of respect for him. There is no opposition to the other paths while Aghora and Vimalananda ji's own experience is explained. The experiences and perspectives shared are like vivid images that immediately make a mark on the heart. Of course, such a book is only meant for those firmly rooted in their experience of spirituality which makes their heart open to exploring radical avenues like Aghora. My background/experience with Advaita Vedanta and my own experiences certainly helped me appreciate this book a lot more. Truly overjoyed to have read this. Particularly, the introduction made my heart dance with joy.

Best Books of All Time, The Aghora Series
This new edition has few changes made by the author when compared to the first edition. All you will miss is one chapter dedicated to Spirits, if you need to read this one particular chapter, you can find it in the first edition only. However, the rest of the content in this new edition is similar to the first edition. If one is looking to find out the richness of spirituality in India, please read this series. The Aghori Vimalananda is so kind to us, in sharing his experience via this book series. I love him so much. Thanks to Mother Goddess Tara for this wonderful real knowledge via The Aghori Vimalananda. You all will love this series, give it a try and find out for yourselves.

One of the best books for everything related to true Spirituality
This book blew my mind. The concepts in the words of Vimalananda are pure bliss. It won't be excess to say that if one understand the point of this book, one won't be needing a lot of other books at all. This book suffices in a major part of the spirituality as whole. The real spirituality and not what is called what and all the bookish part!!

Must read to know deeper aspects of spirituality !!!
This book gives information on deeper aspects of spirituality. Also, it is written in a first-person format of aghori vimalananda. The experiences shared by the Aghori vimalananda is truly amazing and also the teachings of his experiences expose us to deeper aspects of spirituality and life. Also he shares less-known facts about spirituality, spirits, and aghori sadhanas. Must read for serious spiritual seekers !!!
