Tantra Quote: "Tantric Buddhism is the much misunderstood practice of using the sexual energy as a way of exploring spirituality, using sex as a gateway to a richer and deeper spiritual experience, and using spirituality as a means of expanding the sex act into one of erotic symbolism and meditation."
I certainly hope I have made it clear to you all that Tantra is based on a spiritual path manifesting higher levels of awareness through the powerful force of your sexual energy.
After 9-11 most of us are realizing how Precious life is!! Here is a lovely piece from a special male friend of mine. Read it slowly and feel the words:
I dreamed I had an interview with The Goddess.
"Come in," The Goddess said. "So, you would like to interview Me?"
"If you have the time," I said.
The Goddess smiled and said: "My time is eternity and is enough to do everything; what questions do you have in mind to ask me?"
"What surprises you most about mankind?"
The Goddess answered: "That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again.That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live neither for the present nor the future. That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they had never lived..."
The Goddess' hands took mine and we were silent for a while and then I asked..."As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want your children to learn?"
The Goddess replied with a smile: "To learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved. To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives. To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. All will be judged individually on their own merits, not as a group on a comparison basis! To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least. To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in Persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them. To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. To learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show their feelings. To learn that money can buy everything but happiness. To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it totally differently. To learn that a true friend is someone who knows everything about them... and likes them anyway. To learn that it is not always enough that they be forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves."
I sat there for a while enjoying the moment. I thanked Her for her time and she replied. "People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
More Sexual Energy and Vitality:
I have been a long time advocate of treating our bodies as the temples they were meant to be. They house something so precious and magnificent which can be called your inner being or your soul or sacred self. The name doesn't matter so much as how you demonstrate your love for your temple by exercising regularly, eating to nourish your body not to stuff your emotions, eating more fruits and vegetables, thinking more positive and loving thoughts of yourself and others and being more conscious of your breathe. It is more difficult to maintain maximum pleasure and states of arousal when you are on medication or dulled by excessive drinking, carrying excess weight and being inflexible in your body and mind. Remember everything is a choice. Do you choose to feel pleasure in everything you do or worry, pain and insensitivity?
Invest in a top-notch juicer from the health food store or on line. Try drinking fresh squeezed vegetable and fruit juices every day within one hour of preparing to nourish your cells. Freshly squeezed juice is the only way that your cells get fed. Stretch more, move more and love more.
Dirty Joke of the Month: Four Catholic ladies were having coffee. The first Catholic lady tells her friends, "MY son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him 'Father'." The second Catholic lady chirps, "My son is a Bishop. Whenever he walks into a room people call him, 'your Grace'." The third Catholic lady says, "My son is a Cardinal. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, 'Your Eminence'." The fourth Catholic lady continued sipping her coffee in silence, so the first three ladies give her a subtle, "Well?" She replies, "My son is a gorgeous, 6' 2", hard bodied Italian stripper who's hung like a horse and shows it. When he walks into a room, people gasp, 'Oh, My God'."
Tantra Tips: It is not a myth that men can have many orgasms each time you make love. You must first learn to watch your breathe and slow down arousal and instead of climbing the mountain of your desire by chasing ejaculation you must ride a slow wave of pleasure and stay present enough for ORGASM to come to you.
"The present is not part of time. The present is part of eternity." Osho...In ORGASM, for a brief moment we become part of that eternity. The secret is to expand that moment to many moments.
Favorite Movies to Rent for deep Spiritual contemplation: "Kundun" the true story of the Dalai Lama as a child and his daring struggle to rule Tibet. Another much older movie is "The Razor's Edge", starring Bill Murray in a dramatic serious role. It is the story of one man's search for himself as he journeys into the Himalayas
