What is Tantra?

Tantra is a gateway to the divine in you.

From the most mundane aspects of our lives - how you brush your teeth, clean your house, drive your car, speak to your children, make a business decision, plan your holiday, play your favourite sport, make love to your beloved, Tantra is the Divine and it is totally inclusive - it does not reject anything, it includes every area of our lives. Tantra is a practice.A practice that facilitates liberation, deep connection, and real personal power.

In the west, the word Tantra has become synonymous with sex or sacred sex.

Maybe here in the west - that's where we need to start, maybe in liberating our core sexual

energy we can then understand the immense value of living Tantra and apply it then, to all areas of our lives. Living our true divine nature.

Profane & Sacred Sexuality

A Living Paradox

To know Tantra, one must also know the shadow side. Like everything in this world of paradox, Profane Sexuality & Sacred Sexuality co-exist - one cannot exist without the other.

Profane sexuality is created by the mind & stimulated with the mind. It is a habitual practice that holds a particular energy that keeps you feeling "wired" or stressed. Hence, why we feel pressured to release or ejaculate that energy.

The mind adores quick fixes and momentary pleasures & payoffs, ensuring that we are soon ready to experience that again - setting up ongoing addictive behavior. Due to its nature, these limited experiences attract pain, shame, guilt, self condemnation, embarrassment & fear.

Profane Sexuality is the shadow side of Tantra.

It's important to note here that "there's not a thing wrong with getting down & dirty!" It's where your coming from that makes it either deeply fulfilling or a bottomless pit!

As Osho once said " The basic principle of Tantra is that it is one piece. The higher & the lower holding hands. The higher contains the lower - so the lower has not to be denied, has not to be condemned, has not to be destroyed or killed. The lower has to be transformed. The lower has to be allowed to move upward and in that way the lower becomes the higher".

When we choose to take the tantric path of sacred sexuality, a transition, a peeling of layers occurs. Each layer offers different gifts - accompanying those gifts, a "freeing up" of your energy occurs and it is those new spaces that allow expansion to your self, your relationships, your work, your creativity - everything in your life moves & opens up.

Tantra is our conscious connectedness with our own divine life force. It cannot be accurately understood with the mind - it is an experience of feeling.

Textbook Relating

From Profane to Profound

Normally, what happens in relationship is that we connect to each other in profane sexuality. In that, we grow and we experience amazing times together - there is no doubt!

As the relating matures, quite often the sexuality doesn't. Both parties not knowing how to take their sexuality deeper or even that they can, so the relating stagnates with the core individual needs of the masculine & feminine left unmet. Resulting in both sexes seeking their needs elsewhere outside of each other.

Normally, the man will stay in what he knows - the heady, habitual wired sexual energy, wanting to offload or release that build up of pressured energy, he looks for outlets to find relief - that may be work, acquiring material possessions, sport, affairs, massage parlours/porn/prostitution etc.

What he really is looking for is deep connection and intimacy.

Normally the woman stays in what she knows - unfulfilled, unexpressed sexual energy, she looks for ways to express herself through her children, her career, her girlfriends, shopping etc to fill her void. What she is really looking for is deep connection & intimacy.

Both men & women are left feeling unsatisfied in their close relating, most just bumbling along, compromising and living their lives in mediocrity because they feel they have to.

For fulfillment, every individual, man and woman - can take responsibility for their own personal connection to themselves. It's not about anybody else, it's not about something else - out there - meeting our needs, it's not about what's outside of ourselves. It is through the empowering journey of connection to our own hearts that we begin to find the profound realisation of what real love is.

You are you own divine lover. You are complete and unto Yourself.

When we look to another, we are looking to see our own reflection............

Imagine then, from this wholehearted space, the quality of connection that would be possible when meeting another. Two complete & matured beings, devoid of their neediness, having "tied off" their own leaky behaviors/energy and able to allow the true course of energy to play out between them.

Co-dependency no longer an issue.

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh............

Something to practice and work towards - Yes?!!

Sex Magic!

Sex Magic is real! It has totally changed my life. For the first time in my life, I feel absolutely, totally fullfilled, purposeful and in true alignment with myself. More than ever before I feel solidly in my body, my energy has become more authentic - illusions, untruths & drama are shown up to be so - very quickly.

I am full of healthy energy, I am alive and I am thriving. I am more awake and aware than I have ever been. I am able to be available, open & more present to other people. I am able to feeeeeel. I am able to communicate myself so much more clearly. I am able to fully celebrate the dance of my divine feminine essence. I am in my heart.

Moving through my conditioned responses (guilt, shame, self denial, self sabotage, self destruction) around my sexuality allows me to stand tall in who I am. I hold my head high, knowing that in this work I have found real intimacy, real beauty and real magic!
