Origins of Tantra
Traditional tantra text Vigyan Bhairav Tantra is a discourse between the god Shiva and his consort Devi or Shakti, and it briefly presents 112 meditation methods or centering techniques, embracing all facets of life. Tantra is an art, a science, a spiritual path of transformation. Tantra does not condemn anything, but transforms everything.
Image of Shiva/Shakti is an acknowledgement of the highest polarity that there is. Feminine and Masculine. These two aspects are deeply inter-woven into all of creation. Everywhere in existence these two are found as basic building blocks of reality.
Human Being is no different.Our heart creates a powerful magnetic field and is feminine in nature.Brain produces thought, which is electricity and is the masculine aspect.
Essentially, Human Being is an electro magnetic coil. The same applies to our cells, molecules and atoms, as well as to our planet Earth, our Sun, our Galaxy and our Universe. As above, so below. All creation exists within this basic construct. Feminine and Masculine. Heart and Mind. Magnetism and Electricity.
The whole effort of Tantra is to bring these two polarities together in perfect balance. When these two aspects in us harmonise, we have discovered "an easter egg" of game of life. For this union within, opens a door to the Divine.

Sex to Superconsciousness
|
Conscious sexuality is a small but important part of Tantra .
Out of 112 techniques given by Shiva, six of them involve sex. The remaining 106 are focused on other aspects of life. Sexual energy is the Life force itself and in Tantric tradition the objective is to draw this energy upwards through the spinal column and the chakras until it s pouring out of the crown chakra at the top of the head and showering the whole body. When sexual energy reaches the heart centre, it becomes Love. When it reaches the crown, Samadhi. This is the union of energy of Mother Earth and Father Sky. When Human Being allows this union to take place within, their purpose on Sacred Earth is being fulfilled. |
