Tantra Yoga

[Guest guest]

It is possible to distinguish two main directions of use of the sexual energy:

the evolutionary one, and the " magic " one.

 

The first involves that the Tantric techniques, and the resulting energy are

used for self-knowledge, for spiritual evolution, for attaining the condition of

Self-Realization, or Divine Consciousness. This may be done either by an

individual practiser in the search of the Truth, or by a couple of Seekers of

the Transcendent, case in which the accomplishment takes the further dimension

of making their love-relationship tangent to the Eternity. This latter ideal,

though very cherished by the human soul, and tantalizing, involves however a

great deal of spiritual commitment, and abnegation from both partners, and is a

rare, and exceptional accomplishment.

 

The second direction allows the use of the controlled energy for attaining all

kind of mundane goals (health, success, wealth, power, seduction, influence,

supernormal capacities, etc.) in almost a " magic " manner (the word is maybe not

the best, for it often evokes an occult, sinister and choking environment, or

stand, but has been used in absence of a better one). Here it is also often

difficult to find a clear limit between the two directions, since there are

schools, and practisers who follow them both at the same time. However, from the

standpoint of the " magic " use of the energy, there have been settled three main

possible sub-directions. They are conventionally called:

 

- the " white TANTRA " , in which the energy is used exclusively for beneficial,

superior, spiritual purposes, as healing, psychic supporting, easing of the

spiritual evolution, etc.

 

- the " red TANTRA " , dedicated entirely to the obtaining of as much as possible

pleasure, and personal satisfaction, in a somehow selfish manner, and without

any spiritual horizon, but however without involving any evil, demonic, or

satanic actions, or the harming of any sentient being. This direction, or

deviation is quite typical for the Western practisers.

 

- the " black TANTRA " , directed towards obscure accomplishments, that are related

with the dark worlds of a demonic and often even satanic nature, and whose

results are harmful for the sentient beings, for the spiritual evolution, and

for the entire universal balance generally.

 

It must be obvious for anybody, that in our site there will be exposed only

those elements from TANTRA that are concerning the spiritual evolution, the

personal development (or of a couple), and the obtaining and beneficial use of

the paranormal capacities, since for the YOGIN-s it is a very well known fact

that the egoism, and the evil create the endless chain of the human suffering,

and that the ineluctable law of KARMA (or of the reaction that fits perfectly to

the done action) pays back - sooner or later - all the misdeeds of anybody, till

the last dime. Therefore, if we want to preserve ourselves in the spirit of the

above-classification, we might say that we are going to study elements of the

TANTRA of the Left Hand, connected where necessary with elements belonging to

HATHA YOGA and TANTRA of the Right Hand, and directed towards the spiritual

evolution of the individual or of the couple, and - when possibly - towards the

" white " use of the energy. Whenever it will be deemed necessary, elements from

other parallel spiritual paths will also be added, such as: sexual TAO, IMSAK,

other branches of the YOGA system, and so on. Also, elements from modern

sexology, and latest research in medicine, physiology, physics, and chemistry,

will be used for improving the understanding of these topics.
