What is tantra ?! Sex or spirituality !!
Tantra says be real, be authentic to yourself.
Tantra first teaches how to move in sex, how to know it, how to feel it, how to come to the deepest possibility hidden in it, to the climax, how to find the essential beauty, the essential happiness and bliss that is hidden there.
Tantra is not teaching sexuality.
It is simply saying that sex can be a source of bliss. And once you know that bliss, you can go further because now you are grounded in reality.
One is not to remain with sex forever, but you can use sex as a jumping point.
That is what tantra means: you can use sex as a jumping point.
And once you have known the ecstasy of sex, you can understand what mystics have been talking about a greater orgasm, a cosmic orgasm.
Tantra says, take life naturally; do not be unreal.
Sex is there as a deep possibility, a great potentiality.
Use it!
And what is wrong in being happy in it?
Tantra says be real, be authentic to yourself.
Your happiness is not bad; it is good.
It is not sin!
Only sadness is sin, only to be miserable is sin.
To be happy is virtue because a happy person will not create unhappiness for others.
Only a happy person can be a ground for others’ happiness.
Once you know that secret you can transcend it because, really, in a deep sexual orgasm it is not sex which gives you bliss, it is something else.
Sex is just a situation.
Something else is giving you the euphoria, the ecstasy.
That something else can be divided into three elements.
Those three are:
Firstly Timelessness:
you transcend time completely.
There is no time. You forget time completely;
time ceases for you. Not that time ceases, it ceases for YOU; you are not in it.
There is no past, no future. In this very moment, here and now, the whole existence is concentrated.
This moment becomes the only real moment.
If you can make this moment the only real moment without sex, then there is no need of sex.
Through meditation it happens.
Secondly, in sex for the first time you lose your ego, you become egoless.
So all those who are very much egoistic, they are all always against sex,
because in sex they have to lose their egos.
You are not, nor is there the other.
You and your beloved are both lost into something else.
A new reality evolves, a new unit comes into existence in which the old two are lost — completely lost.
The ego is afraid.
You are no more there.
If without sex you can come to a moment when you are not, then there is no need of it.
And thirdly, in sex you are natural for the first time.
The unreal is lost, the faces, the facades are lost; the society, the culture, the civilization, is lost.
You are a part of nature. As trees are, as animals are, as stars are, you are a part of nature.
You are in a greater something — the cosmos, the Tao.
You are floating in it. You cannot even swim in it; YOU are not.
You are just floating — being taken by the current.
These three things give you the ecstasy.
Sex is just a situation in which it happens naturally.
Once you know and once you can feel these elements, you can create these elements independently of sex.
All meditation is essentially the experience of sex without sex, but you have to go through it.
It must become part of your experience, not just be there as concepts, ideas, thoughts.
Tantra is not for sex, tantra is to transcend.
But you can transcend only through experience — existential experience — not through ideology.
What is tantra ?! Sex or spirituality !!
Tantra is a scientific way to reach god as yoga is.
It is very strong and powerful group of 112 techniques listed by Shiva.
It is for the welfare of human beings said by the God himself.
But when the Britishers and other external rulers came to India they realised that if indians have such powerful and practical tools of self actualization no matter how many times they ate invaded they can again reach the pinnacle.
Soi they started relating tantra to black magic and occult sciences which it is not.
They also tried to destroy the authentic tantra scriptures and libraries.
It’s a very scientific way odd meditation like breathing techniques, focusing attention on different pays off body etc.
So i suggest kindly read authentic tantra scriptures and it is for human beings to live a more conscious and blissful life.
Practicing right tantra uplifts the human life to a different plane

The Meaning of “Tantra”
The word “tantra” is derived from the combination of two words “tattva” and “mantra”. “Tattva” means the science of cosmic principles, while “mantra” refers to the science of mystic sound and vibrations.
Tantra therefore is the application of cosmic sciences with a view to attain spiritual ascendancy.
In another sense, tantra also means the scripture by which the light of knowledge is spread:
Tanyate vistaryate jnanam anemna iti tantram.
There are essentially two schools of Indian scriptures – “Agama” and “Nigama”.
Agamas are those which are revelations while Nigama are the traditions. Tantra is an Agama and hence it is called “srutishakhavisesah”, which means it is a branch of the Vedas.
Tantric Scriptures
The main deities worshipped are Shiva and Shakti.
In tantra there is a great significance of “bali” or animal sacrifices.
The most vigorous aspects of Vedic traditions evolved as an esoteric system of knowledge in the Tantras.
Types & Terminology
18 “Agamas” referred to as Shiva tantras
There are 18 “Agamas”, which are also referred to as Shiva tantras, and they are ritualistic in character. There are three distinct tantrik traditions – Dakshina, Vama and Madhyama.
They represent the three “shaktis” or powers of Shiva and are characterised by the three “gunas” or qualities – “sattva”, “rajas” and “tamas”.
The Dakshina tradition, characterised by the “sattva” branch of tantra is essentially for good purpose.
The Madhyama, characterised by “rajas” is of mixed nature, while the Vama, characterised by “tamas” is the most impure form of tantra.
Rustic Tantriks
In Indian villages, tantriks are still not quite hard to find. Many of them help the villagers solve their problems. Every person who has lived in the villages or has spent his childhood there, has a story to tell. What is so easily believed in the villages might appear illogical and unscientific to the rational urban mind, but these phenomena are realities of life.
Desire for Worldly Pleasures
Tantra is different from other traditions because it takes the whole person, and his/her worldly desires into account.
Other spiritual traditions ordinarily teach that desire for material pleasures and spiritual aspirations are mutually exclusive, setting the stage for an endless internal struggle. Although most people are drawn into spiritual beliefs and practices, they have a natural urge to fulfill their desires. With no way to reconcile these two impulses, they fall prey to guilt and self-condemnation or become hypocritical. Tantra offers an alternative path.
The Tantrik Approach To Life
The tantrik approach to life avoids this pitfall. Tantra itself means “to weave, to expand, and to spread”, and according to tantrik masters, the fabric of life can provide true and ever-lasting fulfillment only when all the threads are woven according to the pattern designated by nature. When we are born, life naturally forms itself around that pattern.
But as we grow, our ignorance, desire, attachment, fear, and false images of others and ourselves tangle and tear the threads, disfiguring the fabric. Tantra “sadhana” or practice reweaves the fabric, and restores the original pattern.
This path is systematic and comprehensive.
The profound science and practices pertaining to hatha yoga, pranayama, mudras, rituals, kundalini yoga, nada yoga, mantra, mandala, visualization of dieties, alchemy, ayurveda, astrology, and hundreds of esoteric practices for generating worldly and spiritual prosperity blend perfectly in the tantrik disciplines.
