How did it make you feel?
Intense sexual experiences are one of our greatest sources of pleasure and joy.
And yet, sex is often regarded with an equal measure of fear and fascination.. We may wish to be touched with all fully, yet fear our own vulnerability. We may crave sexual intimacy to the core of our being, yet also take great pains to avoid it We may long to rekindle lost passion, but have forgotten how to light the fire.
The word Tantra means - to manifest, to show and to weave, to expand. In this context, sex is thought to expand consciousness and to weave together the polarities of man and woman, into harmony of one.
What Is Tantra?
Although Tantra has long been practiced in many eastern cultures, it is just beginning to flourish in the west. It was Born in India more than 6,000 years ago. Organized religion, which held that sexuality should be rejected in order to reach enlightenment provoked Tantra which emerged as a rebellion against that path.
By practicing Tantra we can reclaim the sexual intimacy that is our birthright. This very ancient art, gives us the tool to discover new joys of the erotic and expand mere moments of sexual ecstasy into a lifetime of sexual bliss. Our western modern way of life, full of stresses, fears and distractions on a daily base threaten so many relationships. The age-old practice of Tantra shows us how to open our emotions, our sexuality and our hearts.
Tantra is challenging the acetic beliefs, purporting that earthly pleasures, such as eating, dancing and creative expression are sacred acts and that sexuality is a doorway to the divine.
In order to benefit from the sexual wisdom of this ancient art couples don't need to adopt the Tantric pantheon. A tantric tsunami is not needed. Simple Tantric sexual practices revels to us how to prolong the act of making love and utilizing potent orgasmic energies much more effectively.
Tantra is health enhancing. It is well-known by now that sexual energy is one of the most powerful energies for creating health. When we are using sexual energy consciously...we are entering a true source of youth and vitality and longevity.
How Is Tantric Sex Unique?
We are looking at sex in the west as a source of recreation rather than a means of transformation. Our goal is to reach orgasm rather than to pleasure our lover or to connect with him or her more fully. That's how tantric sex is so unique and life changing.
My name is Kranti Gil
I live with my wife and 2 amazing kids in an alternative community that is located on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica in a forested valley.
You can call me a spiritual seeker even though as the years pass and I gain more knowledge, more perspective, I sense that its more about being then doing.
