Dear all,

 

Obviously some of you may get offended by lets just say my

choice of words like fools or hippies; what I mean by a fool is "he/she who

does not know or realise the true meaning of what they are talking about"

and a hippie in this posting it would mean a person who chooses to be

ignorant usually out of laziness.

 

I despise the second sort, since everyone is the first sort except for

Rishis and Maha Purushas.

 

OM PARAMA PISHACHINI NAMAH

 

Let is bow down to she who drinks our karma in form of pishachini we bow to

Devi Sumukhi and Vartali may the mothers grant us their blessings as we

continue to seek the truth of what is known as Tantra.

 

Let me put this argument to you all; if these tantric books you buy from

shops did actually work then how come the writers or editors themselves aren

't highly enlightened; many of these books will only mislead you that is why

devi says in the devi gita that certain schools of tantra is forbidden for

you average bhakta since without a proper guru you will harm your soul and

get bad bad karma.

That is why I say for those who aren't sure about what to do, stick to

Vedanta. Many say that devi is a tantric deity let devi be either Gayatri or

Bhima Kali; there is no difference of the two parts one is fast but hard the

other is simple but very slow.

 

Tantra does sound good and is appealing due to the mystery and aw involved

around it but remember many of the true tantrics are dead, hippies have

taken over. Many Kali worshippers for instance; devi maha kali's tantra is

literally bloody, erotic and grotty that is to put off idiots from

practising it since the tantra of kali and chinnamasta can open the

Kundalini within seconds.

But now days this is just attracting more and more people, let me give you

all an example:

 

 

In the mantra raja tantra of my dearest mother kalika there is tantric rite:

 

Recite the mantra 100 000 times, then go naked into the shamshana bhumi

(cremation ground), sit on a corpse like one sits on a horse and do homa to

the devi, offer karavira flowers smeared with your semen and offer 10 000 of

such offerings.

 

Later there is also a mention of khanda manda yoga but that is literally

done right now it is not a good time to get into that.

 

Well let us look at this tantric rite, it says to do recitations of that

mantra, now that mantra is big and to do it that many times will take you

around 33 hours so it isn't one night. It can be done; but that is just a

count of Pranayama. The naked bit into shamshana, we all know a cremation

ground is where we burn people going naked into such a place simply means

that you must show humility and burn away all your desires.

 

You must then sit on a corpse, obviously that simply means that one should

control their senses since it is the body that most sensory organs are

linked to, the homa is reference to the bhuta agni that one should make

offerings to devi through the bhuta agni.

 

The karavira flower simply means shiva and Shakti as one, the whole thing

simply means to infuse yourself with shiva and Shakti so there be no duality

(in reality this means when you raise your prana to anahata) such a rising

should be done so many times.

 

So basically it means:

Sit down rid yourself of all desires, meditate on devi and do her japa with

one japa the prana should reach anahata, see no duality between you, shiva

and devi. Repeat this 100 000 times (this means that you must take your

shusma prana and take it through you nadi system among other areas which in

total would then = 100k, this is in ref to major nadis)

 

This can be done literally as well but the achievement is the same as one

who does it in the interpreted way if not less. That is the reason why you

need a guru.

 

It is good to start off with just doing japa, this trains your mind and body

to work as one, the whole purpose of these exercises is to destroy duality

between your gross, vital and mental bodies later destroy duality between

your identity and devi.

 

Samachara = transformation of three as one

 

Vamachara = destruction of three leading to only one

 

 

There are exceptions to this rule of interpreting everything in tantra,

those who are the veera take the literal path those who are the divya take

the esoteric path, those who are the pasu well they are selective (that is

the most polite way of saying it)

 

Even then for the veera and the divya the pre-requesites are that they fully

understand the tantra in all it's dimensions and have their senses under

control. The pashu is stuffed to begin with that rank is there for idiots,

heathens and other fools.

I for one am offended by your characterization of hippies. (And as for

"fools" that is such a general term of abuse it carries little

descriptive meaning at all.) I have a great deal more respect for

hippies who do nothing out of laziness or for any other reason (although

the so-called "hippies" I have known are not lazy nor ignorant in any

sense of the word) than those whose actions plunder the planet, oppress

other peoples, and who in the name of "progress" ride roughshod over

nature and culture alike. In this I follow my Guru Swami Ganeshananda

Saraswati who, as both a Kriya yogi and a Naga, (if you do not think

that sadhus represent their own counter-culture in India, you haven't

spent much time with them) believed that if it were not for the

pot-smoking hippies who led the protests of the 60's and 70's America

would have lost all moral standing in the world as it pursued its

imbridled rape of Vietnam and the rest of South-East Asia. Today we see

the same warmongers picking up where they left off, albeit using much

more subtle and dangerous means, (media control, computer war games,

etc.) and most every so-called "clean-cut" yuppie all-American is so

deep in denial that they look the other way or simply rationalize what

is happening. Use the terms in whatever way you like, but I for one

WISH there were more hippies in the world today!

AUM gaNapataye namaH

 

Namaste dakinic_monk,

 

Since you've posted an interpretation of tantra, I must know what

category you fall into: fool, hippie, rishi, or maha purusha. This

will help me to figure out how seriously to take your words.

 

Thank you!

I made no relation to the "hippie" you are referring to; basically what I

said was those people are called such, Sanskrit word for such a person means

he who consumes to much cannabis since it has a tendency to make you over

relaxed.

 

Get your facts straight, I am not making reference to the 70's generation of

people commonly known as Hippies, I am using the same word but the usage is

in a different context!!!!!

 

Again I will say this, those who are learned in the path of Tantra or are

even firmilar with it but without doing much research start mentioning

factors beyond their comprehension are known as fools this is what Devi

herself has said so. I use the word idiot since it is a bit more derogatory.

 

You are mistaken, I wasn't even born in that era a decade after it so I

wouldn't dare mention something I haven't experienced.

 

I WAS A NAGA SADHU, GET THAT STRAIGHT AS WELL!!! However that was

under different practices and circumstances which I will not go further in;

I didn't get this knowledge from man, to invoke a Dakini you must like naked

and worship her in an isolated place for weeks on in.

You do not know me hence do not speculate, I am sorry for any offence

caused; you should know that feet will be stepped on in the process of

writing or mentioning Tantra or anything else for that matter.

Most definitely fool, I have no ego problem with that. Although I would like

to aspire to become a Rishi or maha purusha. You see a fool is a person who

hasn't fully realised Tantra, even if you on a 99 percent verge you still

will be called so because this will prevent you from getting a big head.

 

If you call yourself a scholar or an aspirant then there is a hierarchical

system, not that this isn't but this takes it to the extreme, in the process

of learning if you start getting a big head then you are stuffed hence the

term fool or idiot is applied.

Ma Kali seems to love hippies, fools and yuppies

equally well.

Jai Ma!

I must say one thing, I might was well stop this posting on tantra people

are arguing about things that aren't relevant and take what I write to

convey an Idea out of context, I said earlier in the posting that words I

use are of a different nature then it's original context, i.e. hippie.

 

Instead of talking about the essential component that being the

interpretation of Tantric texts people are criticising my choice of words;

that is beyond me. I said before I am not master thus am prone to mistakes

however I know enough to invoke devis, this is something I wasn't hesitant

to share.

 

You all know that many Tantrics are secretive about sadhana especially to

Devi, I thought that since we all have the same goal why not share these

things yet you either criticise or complement me. I don't really care for

either, I am here to learn like everyone else instead of talking about what

is important (DEVI and her darshan), some have taken the petty approach. I

wasn't wrong in using the word hippie. Like I said some even with the

information in front of their faces remain deluded to the whole picture.

 

God never made man stupid or an idiot, it is out of ignorance, ego and

laziness that man has acquired this. Anyone can give and teach mantras and

sadhana, anyone can comment on Tantra in fact many without the proper

knowledge do so. I don't have the proper knowledge nor do I claim to have

such but I have made a hell lots of mistakes and really don't want others to

go through the same process, I am not doing this out of the goodness of my

heart but have been instructed to do so, thus get good karma.

 

I am not versed at all in Vedas or anything else but Tantra and at that

mostly to the dasha maha vidyas, for all my life practically 17 years I have

talked and learnt and like I said made lots of mistakes, Devi isn't all that

forgiving I must warn those who have this misconception of that fact.

She is Shakti before anything else that is her physical essence and if you

mess with electricity prepare for a good jolt. This posting is here to stop

people getting this, many try calling on Devi they call her mother, friend

and what nots but all they are doing is sitting in front of an inanimate

statue chanting mantras they don't understand and thinking "what am I going

to have for lunch?" I have been there I know.

 

If you choose the path of tantra then forget all the Vedic conceptions of

Devi being motherly and loving, you are firstly approaching her as Shakti

you don't use ma or mother in her mantras as much as you do hreem or phreem

these bijas are Shakti resonance. She is nothing but your Kundalini Shakti,

why the hell do you even call her as mother when you haven't even seen her

true from, ever spoken to her or interacted with her, except for the usage

of icons.

 

This all is explained when you analyse this, Hinduism and Tantra aren't some

mystic thing, they are kept secret because people misinterpret, misconstrue

and thus contaminate something as pure as this. The concept of Tantric sex

is something new to the world like 500 years new before that only the

merging of the Kundalini to the anahata was known as this later people took

it literally.

That is the same with Kalika or Chinnamasta devi.

 

I do not take back anything that I have said, if it offends you that ignore

me, if you think I am wrong and have evidence to support you argument then I

only make a humble plea that you correct me (in terms of Tantric philosophy)

I don't like complements as much as I don't like criticism or abuse.

Complements only increase one's ego and gives you a big head that is one of

the worst curses. Learn from Lord Rama.

 

I get in a vile mood when people totally misinterpret what I say or talk

about irrelevant dribble. I have never met a hippie hence I will not talk

about one or comment on one, what I know about them can very well be another

person's point of view which could totally lead away from the truth. I admit

I don't like being wrong hence such a large reply to that hippie complaint,

that isn't cause of ego that is to see if the other argument holds more

validity.

Besides I absolutely despise those who speculate!!! I think it is better if

I stop posting information about tantra in general.

 

Good day to all of you (except for that hippie complaining person.)

You have already stated something about your age so I can put a lot of

your attitudes down to your youth but I do feel sorry that you become so

defensive when people object to mistaken "labelling" of people. The fact

is that "hippie" already has a meaning in the context of global

discourse and so of course people will take offense when you choose to

use it in your own way oblivious of the fact that you might be smearing

large numbers of people who hardly deserve it. You make a judgement

about those of us who point this out (and not in an angry way either,

simply stating another view) in saying that we are talking about

irrelevant things. If you think that the teachings of tantra do not

have any bearing on what is happening in the world around us, the way we

"label," hence relate, to others, then you have not understood the role

tantra has played throughout history. Tantra has, by anyone's

standards, functioned as a "counter-culture" in relation to the

mainstream caste-bound hierarchical society. Ma is the great equalizer

in so far as we all enter this world through the womb of Mother. In her

eyes there is no such thing as caste, class or ethnicity.

Your background is interesting but nonetheless there is a reason

why such sadhanas have been shared only with select others face to

face. In the field of tantra broadcasting one's practices and states of

consciousness can be easily misunderstood so do not be surprised if your

Ma gets angry at you for it!

Namaste dakinic_monk! I will try my best to comply with your request.

 

You write:

One of the goals of Tantra is to get beyond likes and dislikes. Sure,

attraction and aversion will still arise, but the point is not to be

affected by them. If you are feeling that the words of others affect

you, then consider also that your own words will also affect others --

especially when you take a teaching stance. Words, after all, are the

very deluding power of Maya.

 

If you state that you are not competent to interpret Tantras, then

perhaps it would be best to just present the practices without the

extra commentary. You write that you would like others to make the

same mistakes as you and this is fine and compassionate. But maybe

some people need to make those very same mistakes in order to learn?

How else does one really learn?

 

So, in essence, don't let other's words affect you; continue what you

are doing with the unstoppable force of an arrow shot from Devi's bow!

We all appreciate what you are trying to do. Just be careful with your

words!

Whats with you and speculation, like I said I was using the word in the

different context and again like I said if you get offended then ignore my

posts. My age has nothing to do with it try to understand that!

Again I will say this when I used the word hippie it was in a different

context, you are the one who is using (in the post) with it's "global"

context.

 

I don't want to waste my time nor other's by continuing arguing with you, if

you are indeed offended well then tough I will not refrain nor am I sorry

for it since I had clearly outlined the ONLY context I was using it in. Have

you even met maa to make a presumption like that? Do you even know how I

invoke her? I don't think so that just shows ignorance reeking through due

to those fallacious presumptions and speculations you are making.

 

What you are talking about in tantra is also a big load, devi dosent look at

caste as a heirachy but in another context as the kularnava and mostly the

bhimacharani and maha kala samhita point out. Yes what I am talking about is

mentioned in kularnava tantra that there are certain types of people who

should be. But she has outlined difference in caste and hence some cannot

practice a certain tantra like the Kulachadamini tantra can only be

practiced by non Brahmans.

 

So this counter culture bull is again a load of bull ( in my perspective),

however I don't know the history. According to Kularnava tantra there is not

basic caste heirachy that is looked at but other forms that I will not get

into.
