True nature of Tantra & Tantric sensual Exploration
Often women and couples say to me they are really curious to learn more about tantra and tantra massage, to experience it for themselves and to be able to gift their partner.
Sadly, when people do not understand the true nature of tantra, they think it is all about Sex, and they feel inhibited to explore more with or without a partner due to a wide array of inhibitions.
The reality is that Tantra is all about the mastery and control of energy to expand your conscious and sensory perception of life. This expansion enables you to elevate your thoughts, emotions and actions, such as communication, intimacy, touch and lovemaking in the area of relationships. What do I mean by elevation?
As we already know, there are many types of energy that we have learnt the laws of and have harnessed it’s use. Eg. Electricity for lighting, heating and motion.
In tantra, Sexual energy is one of the many forms of universal energy that we learn to harness and use in multiple ways.
For the average person, sexuality is experienced in a more lustful, physical, mechanical and emotional way, experiencing the energy emanating from its lowest emissive form. Like crude oil coming straight from the well. In learning about sexual energy, the anatomy of energy & the laws of energy, sexual energy can ignite and power a refining process of the crude oil, so to speak, into very refined, orgasmic, blissful energy that can be used in many ways especially in increasing our sensory perception and consciousness awareness.
This includes being able to experience:
heightened and more deeply connected and intimate lovemaking,
full body orgasms,
deep and profound healing,
expanding our creativity,
accessing our true feminine or masculine nature,
reaching higher levels of consciousness
and greater levels of success in our lives.
You do not need a partner to explore tantra, and when you meet with other people travelling this journey, male or female, you are both trepid explorers at the edge of an ocean of experiencing and learning mystical and yet profound knowledge. Just travellers on the same journey for a moment, to support and share with each other in this magic of life.
There is no sexual act in anyway, you are not stuck working with one person and you are learning by exploring the art of massage and energy with different unique beings if you are not in a couple.
