Lotus Birth Book by Shivam Rachana - $30
OUT OF PRINT: second edition due soon in 2010. Please E-mail Rachana if you would like to be informed when it is reprinted: rachanalotus@gmail.com

Lotus Birth is the practice of leaving the umbilical cord uncut, so that the baby remains attached to the placenta until the cord naturally separates at the navel - exactly as a cut cord does - at 3-10 days after birth. "This prolonged contact can be seen as a time of transition, allowing the baby to slowly and gently let go of the attachment to the mother's body"- Dr Sarah Buckley, Pregnancy Magazine Spring 1998. 

Many babies in many countries have been born this way, including babies born at home, in hospital and even by caesarean surgery. Compiled by Shivam Rachana, Lotus Birth contains many case histories, photographic illustrations and writings by health professionals. 

In his foreword, Dr Michel Odent says " We need to relearn what a birth can be like when it is not disturbed by the cultural milieu. We need a reference point from which we should try not to deviate too much. Lotus Birth is such a reference point".  Read More about Lotus Birth...

Lotus Birth, The Water Birth of the Malcolm Twins. DVD - $45

LOTUS BIRTH The Water Birth of the Malcolm Twins offers us the privilege to share in one of life's most intimate and sacred -- and at the same time perilous and awesome-- moments: the birth of babies. The footage comes from the family's own home video, and is not rehearsed. 

This film is a unique opportunity to witness the extraordinary natural birth of twins, born underwater at home. The first twin is born headfirst and the second twin is a breech birth. After they are born these babies are left attached to their placentas until their cords come away at the navel naturally in the days after they are born. This practice is known as Lotus Birth.

We join Davini Malcolm, already mother of two, in the last days of her pregnancy, when she openly shares her fears and insights. Davini is generous and articulate, and she speaks with the informed clarity of a woman who is deeply aware of, and has fully embraced her feminine process, as woman and mother. She shows an authority that is palpable in its ancient knowledge, its wisdom and beauty. Read the DVD Overview.

  The Tantric Path 

 

The Tantric Path by Shivam Rachana and Deva Daricha - $25.00

 

Tantra is the divine science of sexual energy. Many ancient cultures have studied sexual energy and its relation to spirituality. From this study emerged a specific science of the evolution of consciousness and the systematic study of the Kundalini energy; the divine energy of the universe that expresses itself in human beings as sexuality.

 

DEVA DARICHA and SHIVAM RACHANA are two of Australia's outstanding teachers of Tantric practice. For more information about Tantra and the book The Tantric Path go to The Centre for Human Transformation website
