“Tantra actually warns against the dangers of having sex without profound love, respect and commitment towards your partner. “Love-making” is a much better way to describe it, because this is what you do when you integrate tantric practices into your intimate life: you create love. Being always based upon the cultivation of our loving capacity, Tantra is never an opportunity for immoral practice; it requires an attitude that can be called “Spiritual Morality”. This attitude is rooted in the deep understanding and application of universal moral principles that can be found, in one way or another, throughout spiritual science. These principles may not be exactly that which is socially accepted at a particular historical moment, as the social norms of morality change very much over time, and they also differ from culture to culture.

The norms of tantric morality on the other hand are universal and timeless in their applicability. Tantra teaches many techniques that can be practiced in a couple, there are also many other individual techniques. It has never been exclusive towards those engaged in love relationships. What many do not know, is that just like yoga, Tantra is not a religion, but a precise science of personal transformation. When practiced correctly, the tantric teachings can actually help you deepen your understanding of your own religion. However its teachings are universal, just like mathematics or physics. Through genuine Tantra, life itself becomes a joyous series of lessons, teaching us all that we need to know, giving the chance of transforming for the better, supporting us to realize our full potential. The ultimate goal of genuine tantric training is to help us realize that we are essentially spiritual beings, blissful and timeless, being all bound together in spirit in an intrinsic web of connections that reveals the wonders of our Eternal Source.”

Mihai’s words resonante with me so deeply in my personal tantra practice where soul connection and harmony on every level: physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual level generate tremendous levels of love, safety trust, honesty and well being for me.  Sex is a powerful, creative, generative force and it amplifies whatever is there between the partners who engage in it. If love and respect are present sex amplifies them. If sex is used for conquest,  one person’s ego will temporarily get inflated and the other one’s deflated and the soul is left completely out of that equation.

To me a truly tantric experience is the opposite of egoic power play sex where love, trust and sacred sexual communion and alchemy–which are the heart of soul of Tantra– are missing and where sex is a commodity traded on the dating or marriage market leading to an erosion of one’s deepest feeling of value.   Instead, I feel that a genuine Tantric orientation will always create a feeling of fullness and wholeness where nothing is missing and everything is there to be discovered in a profound, loving, honoring connection to oneself, another and to all of life.

I am beginning an inquiry into the world of One Taste and finding a movement towards great sexual freedom, authentic communication and multi-dimensional experience there that can be tremendously healing for many people who want to open more or are healing from sexual abuse, neglect or repression and are ready to embrace a sex positive environment. The notion of divine communion through sexual meditation may be new for most people and but has always been central to any tantric practice.  One Taste’s founder Nicole Daedone’s book “Slow Sex” shows us how to slow way down sexually, become fully present and achieve deeper levels of physical and spiritual communion. To me this slowing down is the beginning of sex as an ecstatic art form. There is excellent training in authentic communication offered there as well so I am glad this work is reaching people in the main stream.    http://www.onetaste.us/

Everyone who practices Tantra has their own definitions and freedom, diversity and non-judgement are great tenants of Tantra. Everyone should have whatever experience their hearts and soul’s desire and we cannot judge what is right for another in terms of intimacy. It is a live and let live world that we want to create within the context of Tantra but one where healing, honesty, love and respect are always paramount.

I have just started doing their womb activations combined with a breath that generates oxytocin in both men and women.  I am experiencing some powerful heart/pelvis activations from both practices which I will share at my next workshop or in phone consultations if you live far away.

Here is what Anaiya Sophia says about the womb that strikes a deep cord in mine.

“The birth of a new global society will occur when women’s connection with the transformative potencies of the primordial female is unimpeded. Women will effect planetary change not just by “looking to the heavens,” that is to say to the power of celestial energies. There are evolutionary impulses within the planet – not just outside it – which can only be fulfilled through humankind’s agency. Women as daughters of the primordial female will carry forth her power so that planetary evolution is fulfilled.”

DEAR BEAUTIFUL MEN:

If you want to change the world… Love a woman – really Love her. Find the one who calls to your soul, who doesn’t make sense.

“The Awakening Woman does not use sex or her femininity to manipulate or get what she wants. She ceases to engage in love-making without heart, but rather chooses love-making that is connected, organic, fully mutual, and from the healthy ego. She will not allow sex to be used as a substitute for true intimacy, or a distraction from unresolved wounds. She is not afraid to be called a prude or a slut for making her own conscious decisions around sex. She does not let patriarchy, religion, politics, the media, or the unhealthy male ego define sex, beauty, or relationship for her. Her relationship to sex is her own and comes from within, not from what has been dictated to her all her life by a culture that doesn’t value healthy sexuality. She does not placate or sell herself out to gain male approval, nor does she compete with or sell her sisters out for male attention.”-

The music is almost at concert volume. It is epic, primal and tribal: a tapestry of thundering drums rattles and war cries. It activated deep masculine warrior energy in me . The shocking message I got was that my inner male did not like being in my female body which he felt it was too weak to hold his energy.  At one point this energy turned into an unwieldy serpent that I rode like I was in a rodeo as it lashed me around. The energy that so wants to come into my body is so vast and powerful that it needs a strong yet flexible container but it kept hitting blocks in my body bringing up physical pain and density.

I was able to request “body work” from the facilitators at that point. They came and applied pressure to the area of blocked energy and I tensed those muscles and push against them with equal force and gave it sound. It was very effective. After screaming, sobbing and releasing more grief my process went into self birth and combination of rest and labor. I moved between my past, present and future sending energy to each part of  my life. There were scores of realizations so personal that they would never make sense to anyone else.

Finally the violet flame poured into my third eye and increased the space between the molecules and atoms in my body. Time expanded within me. This was a great blessing and luxury because I am always feeling compressed by the way time is so accelerated these days.

When your process is over you share your experience with your partner then draw or journal. In the next session, it is your turn to be the “sitter”. This is such a beautiful, moving experience because you are present and focused on their process and on serving them but there is space for you to continue having your own realizations and energy flows. Your ego has to get out of the way which of course is liberating. There is then a lot of time to share with your partner and the group. It is creates such exquisite time out of time.

I have done very similar emotional release work and Shamanic Trance Dance that I offer it in my classes but have not had the luxury of so much time for this particular type of shamanic journey into myself. If you have not yet had an experience of this kind,  I highly recommend it . The next one is on Feb. 9th. I can send you more info if you are interested.

Inspiring Poem by Freya on a Facebook page by Dawn Cartwright called Endless Love:Creating the Tantric Relationship
“You touch my soul -
Spreading ripples of ecstasy across its surface;
Sending dark shots of longing through my heart.
How I yearn to touch your face,
Caress your belly,
But how do I truly make love
To the formless one?
Teach me to love thee,
My sweet Divine”

“Explode me!
And blast my million fragments
Across the night sky
So I can shine
With full force of love’s light
On all of creation.
No lower ambition
Can satisfy this deepest yearning”.

“If I look at the world
Through the eyes of love,
Abandoning myself to its bliss,
Will you be there for me
When the world starts to stare?”

This poem inspired my solo tantra session this morning which became all about sound and cymatics in relation to the womb, the sacrum and the spine. First I used deep Tibetan type tones to open my throat and heart then I sent the tones down into the belly and pelvis. My womb became and ancient cave , the walls reverberating with sound where I used the orgasmic energy to rebirth the adept in me and to bask in his gifts and integrate them into the fibers of my Being.
