Guest guest Posted July 9, 2005 Report Share Posted July 9, 2005 History of Tantra The Hindus believed that the creation of the universewas an erotic act of love between the god Shiva andhis consort Shakti. Shiva was worshiped as theembodiment of pure consciousness in its most ecstaticstate, and Shakti as the embodiment of pure energy.They also believed that the joyful dance between Shivaand Shakti is reflected in all living beings andmanifests itself as pleasure, beauty, and happiness.This is the nature of the divine, the root of all thatexists. Sexual ecstasy was seen as a taste of thisdivine nature in human form.The founders of Tantra originally came from all walksof life: royalty, aristocracy, tribal people andpeople practicing all kinds of trades and crafts. Themovement was mainly formed outside monasteries becausethese lay people wanted to practice yoga and spiritualdisciplines outside the walls of monastic life wherethey would be required to be celibate and separatedfrom members of the opposite sex and from theirintimate and family relationships. The people whopracticed Tantra were called tantrikas. Ultimatelythey migrated across Asia and their practices andbeliefs were incorporated into Taoist and Buddhisttraditions. Early Tantric mystics felt that if a force as powerfulas sexuality was banned or repressed in outward_expression, then it was bound to surface as part ofthe dark side of our character, emerging in such a wayas to cause suffering for ourselves or others. Theyfelt that a celibate lifestyle did not, in fact,represent a mastery of one’s sexuality, but rather arepression and even a flight in fear from it.Tantrikas scandalized mainstream society and wereoften condemned and persecuted because they wereteaching people to embrace all of life with nocontradiction between the sacred and the sexual.Because of the persecution, Tantric masters began toguard the teachings and only transmit them orally tochosen disciples and only after long periods ofpreparation and purification. The first Tantricwritings appeared in the 3rd century but were writtenin symbols that only initiates could understand. Manyof those surviving texts still have not been fullydeciphered today.The 11th and 12th centuries were considered the GoldenAge of Tantra when it was practiced widely and openlyin India. But the Moslem invasion in the 13th centurybrought slaughter to the tantrikas and most of themanuscript were destroyed. The Tantric movement wasforced underground where it has continued ever since.It has been predicted by the great prophets that thetrue spirit of Tantra would reappear again to unifythe male and female energies. Rediscovering our owninner feminine power (both men and women) might wellbe the best hope we have to save our planet andourselves.I am a 57 years male from Punjab doing Tantric sex.This is sex withoutejaculation.
