Tantra
sees our sexuality as the doorway to our soul… Our feelings and
emotions are a major key to our sexuality... Embracing our feelings,
emotions and our sexuality gives us a sense of wholeness that makes life
really work... our relationships, sexuality, spirituality, work, sport,
health, leisure and play. Tantra
is not about how good you could become in bed but rather it helps you to
discover how good of an Artist you are. A partner is like a canvas and
you’re the artist. When an artist wants to work on a canvas, he or she
has to be one with the canvas. One has to be connected with the subject,
in this case the partner. To achieve this connectedness one has to
embrace the male and female aspect of oneself. Women
are sexually stronger than a man, is because biologically she is created
to be. Her reproductive organs must bear the strain of physically
producing children. The effect on men of this biological inequality is
profound. At
heart most men are as terrified of women's infinite sexual capacity as
such have over the centuries has suppressed them and made them believe
that they are weaker, and by enlarge made them also believe so, and as
such too most sex act has become a role play. Some think
that they have to provide sex to keep a happy and harmonious
partnership, which in the long run fails. This type of a society cannot
grow until they try to connect with each other in all levels and learn
to be creative with each other. The
quest for sexually fulfilled love has taken on the dimensions of a
religion amongst those who are too liberal or too scientific to believe
any traditional version of Spirituality and Tantra. The ultimate
commitment is the power of sexual experience and multiple orgasm, in
some cases with aid of drugs. This way of life offers something tangible
to be shared that is personal and present. The
decline of religion or spirituality in the west which started before the
Roman time has made the experience of sex more powerful then spiritual
experience. Religion in the west made sex a dirty word thus created an
obsession, the hidden fruit syndrome. Then
in the 60s came total sexual freedom, this did not supply the stability
that one needs most, as such to-day, people are turning back in to
either marriage or religion to seek their sense of an absolute. For
the great Chariot of Human Civilization to remain in existence Man and
Women are the principle wheels and the existence of one without the
other is illogical. "Like
poles repel and unlike poles attract" is the fundamental scientific
law under magnetism of Physics Science and like this. There is a natural
attraction between man and women and to keep the attraction between them
in harmony and proper order. Institution of Marriage has been
established to help run it smoothly and to make the human civilization
mobile. In
the art of human creation all females or males must come through a
female; thus women occupy the highest rank in the order of creative
force. Male and female are but the two aspects, or two sides, of Nature. Hence it is natural for them to be united. For, otherwise there would be incompleteness, thus it would be paradise lost. Even in the ultimate stage of the soul, we are told, it gets merged in the Super-Soul and becomes one with it. Human union is but a gross reflection of this grand spiritual union. A female is considered the press, providing the energy the partner needs to be successful in the worldly and spiritual life. To function at this level, women must first invoke the energy of the Goddess that is available to her. The essential principle of Tantra is self-knowledge. As great sages, modern and ancient have repeatedly stated Self-knowledge is the basis of all knowledge. In Tantra it is stated that Self-knowledge is the knowledge of whom we really are, of our true being, which is the light of awareness and not an external identity. To reach this understanding one has to work with the elements and the planets.
