Ancient Secrets Revealed

Tantra is a religious practice that is rooted in India.  It is found in Hindu, Bonpo, Buddhist and Jain beliefs.  It is believed that tantra works on the main energy that fuels life, called divine energy.

There are three different schools of tantra.  Each practice tantra differently and use the practices differently.

The Samaja tantra is done through meditation and work of the Sahusrara chakra. 

Mishra tantra is meditation and work on the Anahata chakra.

Kaula tantra is meditation and work on the Kundalini force.  It also uses sexual tantra to open the Muladhara chakra.

All tantra is about working with the energy that surrounds and flows through the body.  The work is done through meditation and focus.

Tantra teaches how to get the energy flowing in and out of the body.  The main concepts of tantra are being, consciousness and bliss. 

There are three phases to tantra.  It starts with purification, then elevation, and finally reaffirmation.  The purpose of going through the three stages is to bring the body and soul into perfect alignment, so as to reach consciousness on a very spiritual level.

Tantra and sex are often linked.  Tantric sexual practices were originally used as parts of ceremonies.  They were thought to connect people beyond a physical level at the spiritual or highest level.

Tantric sexual practices go beyond the physical to the real focus of connecting emotionally and spiritually.  People involved in tantric sexual practices are looking for liberation.

They are not focused on the physical pleasure that is usually the main focus of sex.  Instead they are touching, embracing and coming together as one on the spiritual plane.

Tantra is all about energy and balance.  It is an ancient practice that has been used for centuries to bring people to that higher level where they feel they are finally reaching the spiritual apex.

Tantra can be confusing to a beginner.  It helps to learn from someone who is experienced and can explain the many aspects of tantric practices. 

Learning tantra is about learning to lose the physical world with its constraints and its stress and be able to grasp the higher level.  You have to be able to use the energy flow around you and make it work for you.

Energy and spirituality go hand in hand with tantra.  If you are looking for something to bring more energy into your life and a way to connect to your higher self then tantra may be the answer for you.
