I *am* a kaula I am well aware of what you state above. I am not a man of delicate spiritual sensibilites that faints at the idea of these sorts of practices. Far from it. The only reason that I was deflecting your post away from this topic is b/c 1) as you can see from the posts here regarding qualifications for Sri Vidya Upasana these things tend to enflame this board in all sorts of (useless) arguments around what is "pure" and "impure" as pertains to puja/sadhana. I bore of those discussions quickly. 2) I thought that you were someone who didn't know much about SV & Tantra and you had latched on to the whole sex thing without understanding or context of broader tradition. Clearly I misjudged you. I apologize for that. I would love for you to post the traditional dhyanams from Sastra as we go through the KS Devis here if you are so inclined. ; ) ~SE101 , "jaimaa1008" <jaimaa1008> wrote: > > Devi Bhakta, > > You wrote: > > > But you are not Guruji.
